      @@vgwalldecals Spend 100K on a condo that most Filipinos can’t afford and only be able to rent it out for 400-500 USD. It doesn’t make sense…Condo buildings are largely unoccupied, occupancy numbers are not publicly disclosed nor are financial health…Who’s going to be responsible when the developers leave and the exterior starts to fall apart? Urban slums is an urban planning concept that describes what happens to apartments / condo buildings that fail. They are all over the Philippines…People need to understand that liquidity is not the same in the Philippines…it can take years to sell property.

    I live (rent) one of these houses and yes a lot of comments are correct.. those houses are meant for low income and starter homes. Usually built by large developers for a quick payout and are absolutely overpriced for what you get, about 2.6 million Pesos about $45k for 500 square feet and they’re only about 50% finished, the outside is ok, just for curb appeal but the inside is mostly incomplete no tile, no paint, no insulation, no air conditioner, no hot water, incomplete and cheap wiring and fixtures, cheap chinese breakers, cheap plumbing fixtures and almost non functioning septic system. A lot of people do buy them with hopes the prices increase, my subdivision was like this for about 5 years then it turned around and almost all the units are occupied now , rent is cheap about $200 a month and it is secure , gated and a dozen friendly security guards!

    This is actually how homes are sold in the Philippines. Homes are left essentially bare. It’s not the developer who ran out of money…It’s pretty predatory in terms of how they advertise to low income families. Over priced, to people who have little financial knowledge or experience and sold a dream they can piece meal the home together. It’s not really a functional home when sold, the quality of work is debatable with little oversight and cheap materials…that start to degrade quickly. The outside is a façade.

    I'm a small-scale developer and I partly blame the Real Estate agents for speculating too high, until such, the Local Government wants that piece of the pie too. They raised the land taxes. Also, the new (higher) minimum wages for workers without parity (NCR vs Provincial) nationwide, contributed to this too. Looking back, the 1990s and early 2000s were the best times for the industry.

    That would be a subdivision and each unit is considered a "house and lot". It is the dream of most Filipinos to own their own homes. These are usually sold by the developers as unfinished. Add your own tiles and paint, room dividers and electrical fixtures. These appear to be turnover units where the new owner has taken possession but lacks funds to finish them, and the location may not be conducive to actually living there. There is often a 30 year term of repayment through Pagibig which is a government agency/fund that all formally employed Filipinos pay into and then qualify for financing based on their contributions. Many of these units are bought by OFW for occupancy when they return from abroad. There should be security at the gate when you enter and a council that makes rules/bylaws for the owners. Perhaps this subdivision lacks a council and security.

    This the result of greedy developers who aggressively sell to non-financially literate consumers. They lure you in by saying ‘just pay P5K or P10K (US$100-200) reservation fee’ on a pre-construction townhouse, and the you end up slapped with a P200k downpayment or equity payable in 12 months. For most people who earn only P20-25K per month, thats like paying your entire salary on the monthly equity alone. You are not allowed to move in before you have fully paid the equity..so there in itself is a lot of default payees who end up losing whatever they had paid so far or selling them as a transfer of ownership at a really low price to recupe even a small amount they have already paid. There are no govt counter measures to check whether your salary can really support that kind of monthly payment. This is aggravated by the fact that a lot of these buyers are OFW contract workers who end up losing their jobs and returning home before they have fully paid for these purchases. Foreclosure surely awaits because they no longer have their high-income overseas jobs to pay for it.

      Most Filipinos would consider this type of housing development. The problem with house-and-lot options nowadays is that they are often too far from where people actually work, making them less feasible to live in. However, buyers still don’t want to miss out on the "low price" value offered during the pre-selling stage. Additionally, most affordable housing units are unfinished, with the expectation that buyers will have the freedom to design their own interiors.

The government in the main cities verifies foreign ownership before transfer. Some developers know some workarounds. Foreigners cannot own land so some opt for long-term lease of land then build their own houses. Others use dummies or corporations but those have added risks.

      I don't think so. This type of project is highly anticipated, and most buyers are those who meet at least the monthly income requirement to qualify. However, agents sometimes fail to disclose the realistic costs buyers will face as they move forward. Examples include loan application fees, real estate property taxes, home insurance, and homeowner association fees. Not to mention the construction costs for affordable housing, as these units are typically delivered unfinished.

    Okay let's help you understand some things.
    Firstly the bag of water hanging up. A worker has purchased this while working and consumed some and then hung it up to finish later and just left it. No biggie? Just a bit of rubbish left behind.
    Now these units "May" be abandoned but there could also be 20 other reasons why?
    First thing to say is these units look like they are in the "bare shell" phase and this is how they will look until turnover? Or if they have been turned over but the owner has not yet moved in. They will get a spruce up when the owner is ready.
    Bare shell means no tiles, walls are only primed, no ceiling, no kitchen and only bacis CR.
    Now how these are normally sold are on 20% deposit over a termed period. Some are 1 year? Most are 2 or 3 years but I have heard of 5 years. So it quite possibly that these unit still haven't had the deposits paid yet?

    The water in the bag is a mosquito repellent. The theory is that light refracting through the water disturbs the mosquitoes' sense of direction?
    It's popular in Latino cultures.
    The apartments?
    Even in the Philippines, those would be considered small. A kitchen outside is OK but not as your ONLY kitchen.
    On the plus side, maybe you could buy 2 or 3 units and patch them together? Might be OK for a single guy on a budget.
    I noticed some people had enclosed the rear "kitchen" portion of their unit.

    these are not condo units. from the look of it these are Government housing project for relocation for illegal settlers. which they call it "Pabahay"
    you can tell by how tightly close each house from each other (showing how they are trying to save a much space as they can)
    there is a reason why illegal settler choose to leave these units that the government gave to them.
    1. The place have no income opportunity.
    2. if they have work from their previews life before they get relocated, it's probably too far from their work.
    3. lack of reliable and proper utilities. (not to mention they won't be able to illegally tab electric line for free any longer)
    since they can't sell these units coz the law says so. some of them wanted to rent it out instead.
    and they go back where they were before.

    Can you be more specific? It's easy to include details if you want to be more transparent. If I heard you right that you mentioned BRIA Homes at the start, then that's the low-cost housing subsidiary of the Villar Group. They are not bankrupt. The Villars are among the richest families in the country. Those units are for ordinary Filipinos, not the the affluent ones. it is not targeted to foreigners, obviously. It's similar to government housing. These units will be cleaned and made presentable when they will be turned over to new owners. Developers do not fully-finish low-cost houses before the units are bought. They will fix it up just before turn-over. I don't like that developer personally because I find its products overpriced. You can build a better house on your own if you have land. However, low-cost housing still makes sense near the main cities. The country has a 5 million housing backlog. I have seen government housing communities that became vibrant, presentable and livable after the units are fully turned-over. The condo oversupply is another matter. Many of those condo units are targeted for "investors", overseas Filipino workers, and foreigners. Ordinary Filipinos cannot afford those.

      Without knowing specifically, I'm gonna guess this is just another one of the Philippine government's housing projects that went awry due to fraud and corruption. When major developers build gated communities with private money, the profit incentive usually prevents this kind of mismanagement. However, with any government subsidized project, all the profits are made up front and there's no need to complete the project.

      Trading on a demo account can definitely feel similar to the real market, but there are some differences. It's important to remember that trading involves risks and it's normal to face looses sometimes. One piece of advice is to start small and gradually increase your investments as you gain more experience and confidence. It might also be helpful to seek guidance from experienced traders or do some research on different trading strategies.

    These units have already been turned over but owners haven't moved in yet or decided not to continue. The developer of Bria Homes is definitely not bankrupt. These units have already been paid for thru Pag-Ibig loans, so Bria Homes has already earned from each unit. I have a unit from Lumina, but I don't live there and only visit once or twice a year. I bought it for a very low price, my amortization is just a little over 2k a month for 30 years. So, as you can see, getting a row house is affordable, making it easy for the developer to market. Financing is simple because of Pag-Ibig (government - Home Development Mutual Fund), so as long as someone has enough Pag-Ibig contribution, they can afford one . Many people have stopped paying Pagibig or changed their plans. By the way these are not condominium units. Condo units in the Philippines are very expensive. 🙂

Personally I have seen humidity destroy cabinets before units are even sold. The materials that picked are cheap..dirt cheap even in “luxury” units… unless you pay for something else. The developer will simply replace when they prep the unit for turnover. How they view it is different than Western standards…

It's even worse than the low cost housing built by (the corrupt) philippine gov't to house squatters, that were relocated to montalban rizal or somewhere south, like laguna.

Soon it will be completely full when schhols, markets are built near that villages. That is why one the houses you saw has already for rent signage, it meansit is already purchases but no one lives there yet. For sure, you are a foreigners that had no clues on the ways here in the philippines and just based your opinions on the ways in your country. Your ways are not always our ways too.
