Money goes so far in the Philippines! I enjoy taking my whole wife’s family of 16 to a fancy over the water dinner for around $100 US, then we built our house there for 60K and now building our small beach hotel there in Cagayan De Oro City for around $200K. Money goes far there. The hotel name is……Ohana Beach Suites

Hmmm... I agree that your money goes so far here... But, for 16+ people, 100usd? Seriously??? What did you feed them? Philippines is all about the food. Can't buy good food for cheap here... We're a family of 6 but our usual Sunday dinner goes beyond $100.00.. And we're more economic than most...

Im sure the prices are perfect, no matter what the prices are much much much much cheaper than even airbnbs on average here in the US, and I dont care if they are a negligible amount more expensive than condos in other countries in the region, PH for the win no matter what, that is where I am going when I get financially able.

Parking is charged by Atria at P5k a month. It's the 1st floor covered parking. Mimz Contact Info is facebook.com/mimz.aldea?mibextid=ZbWKwL More info I was told " 1month advance and 1month security deposit for 1month rental And for the 1 year rent 1month advance and 2months deposit 1month deposit can consume for the last month stay and the another 1month is where the bills will be deducted for the last month stay or for the damages (if there are any ) of the furnitures or appliances.
I laughed when you talked about the 7-Eleven. So true. I was in the Visayas and Mindanao in Feb/May/June and I am retiring there in October, starting in Cebu and doing more exploring. Thanks so much for the video, seriously, they should be paying you. Cam
Thank you for a great video. Please keep more of these coming,.. especially on the lower price level.
Damn.! You are good 👍 at this! You almost had me ready to enquire on the studio.....but a couple of years too early, at least for retirement. As a couple, you are a great sales team. The fact you showed the retail outlets in the complex was a great touch. I was already picturing in my mind, daily retirement living there. Well done. Give us more of this. Even in other cities. I would love to see your take on units available in Bacolod city. Thanks.
Great video. I just moved into my studio condo over in megaworld. Month to month is definitly the way to go.
Wow bro! You absolutely made us decide to go over there that we can save rather than spending all our earnings here in usa
Thanks guys! I'd love to be able to afford the two bedroom unit, it was pretty nice. Having laundry service and water delivery on the property makes things pretty easy too.
Excellent video guys!!! More please. 😀😀

good video, prices are quite a bit more than Thailand, except the last unit which was closer to the prices in Thailand, we are paying $465 CAD, which is about $350 USD for a similar condo with a much better fridge, we choose Hua Hin 2 hours South of Bangkok. I keep hearing good things about Iloilo, good to see what is available, I am quite surprised that the fridges are so small though, and the rents are so much more than Thailand, our condo includes parking, internet, and full use of the Gym even for 1 month

Hi,great video i hope you do more videos of condos in the area,specially mega word area please, thank you very much 😊
Awesome 👏
Great review of 3 condo units. For me, it's a toss up between the studio and 1 bedroom unit. The studio is enough for what I'd need. I also really like that one could rent for a month or two to try it out and see if one really wants to stay there and in that area. It's also great with all the businesses going in at the ground floor so easy access to needed items & restaurants--will any of those be grocery stores or farm markets or are they nearby? . I'm hoping the 5 gal jugs of waters could be delivered to a condo unit--I don't think I'd like having to carry that all the way back to a condo unit. Laundry being on ground floor is also very convenient. Having the good hospitals (which you reviewed before) being nearby is a great plus for us older folks who have concerns about that. Any idea about how much of a discount (%) one could expect for changing from a 1 month lease to a 1 year lease? Also, having a parking space could be convenient if one has a car/scooter--any idea how much that would cost to include?

Thanks for showing Michael & Bianca. Nice enough condos but I would say they're very expense. 1 year lease is cheaper as mentioned but it would have to be half price for me to want to move in. Similar places in greater Manila are half the price and in Thailand they're cheaper and nicer. It also looks to be much more of a car neighbourhood and a suburb of anywhere North America. Which is something I'm trying to avoid at any cost.
I have to tell you two that you make a great pair for real estate promotions. Mim should give you a couple months free rent just for the very professional way you conducted the tour. And Bianca, you look lovely and elegant in that outfit, and the long hair sets it off nicely. BTW, how many outfits do you own? It reminds me of the movie Jaws, when Chief Brody said, "You're gonna need a bigger boat." You two are going to need the bigger of those three apartments.

My wife and I considered purchasing at Avida Towers when it was pre selling a half dozen years ago. Although you did a wonderful job in showing the units, there some downsides to Avida that I personally simply could not get over. 1) No designated laundry space in any unit. I am too old to want to go out to a laundry mat. Been there, done with that. What is the point of having a second bath if it is used exclusively for laundry? 2) Location. Yeah, it is kind of close to SOME things, but still a hassle to get to them. If you walk, there are only some places nearby, and at least some of that walk is actually on the busy road itself (no sidewalk). Driving from Avida is a challenge during rush hour (4 pm to 8 pm) if you are turning left out of Avida. There is no jeepney that I know of that transits there, so you are either walking a bit on the dangerous road or driving to cross it w/out stop lights or stop signs. The units look good. Just letting you know of the reasons I chose not to buy there.

Most definitely can see how that would be the case when nothing else was built up yet, there is now new a/c local buses that travel back and forth here. The next phase is breaking ground now that will fill the area between them and S&R. Not sure if it was then but the sidewalks are all there and run both sides. In the Avita showroom they had the laundry option in the hallway, but these are rentals of course

I work online and need reliable power for most of the day. (although I do live in Guatemala and have to deal with random power outages too. It'd just be nice if that development had a generator)

Pretty sure they only have emergency lighting generators. Things are getting better these past few months, they have planned outages to upgrade the system maybe once a month per area for a few hours with notice if a few days. Since the 3 day one we had last year we only had one 1 hour unplanned outage since. No flickering or anything during the storms. Fingers crossed they will have to western standards soon

As always, a great video! We are considering a move to Iloilo but our concern is being able to obtain both domestic help (housecleaning and cooking) full time as well as a full time nurse in our future. This seems to be a challenge everywhere except Manila. Perhaps you could consider a video regarding any reputable agencies in the city, if you have not done so already. It would be greatly appreciated! Salamat!

So far, from what I can surmise in Mike's YT videos, Iloilo is a better bet long term. The airport will reopen and expand its international flights after hiatus from pandemic downturns. HK, Singapore and possibly Korea and Taiwan is only 30 drive minute drive to the airport, on average. It's only a 4 hour drive to Boracay, which is considered to be one of the world's best in its category and don't forget the 3 hours to Sicogon and Gigantes Is. The daily fresh seafood availability in the local market are some of the world's best catch. The flat geography gives the populace different culture and mindset that developed over 1000s years in comparison to other mountainous islands. Panay Island and Iloilo province is famous for a more egalitarian in attitude and social structure compare to other 7100 islands which is more hierarchical and have "Balkanized" with their respective self-appointed royalty and political families. Again, domestic house help and caregiver are plentiful in the city and nearby towns. Iloilo city has several modern medical center and cancer treatment facilities. Brand new ACE hospital will be fully operational soon and will have better facility than Medical City. Medicus cancer institute has equipment at par with Manila's.

Plus, despite me telling them I did not want anything "sent to a lab" , I got a bill for an additional 300 dollars in the mail later. Millions of Americans are in massive debt from medical bills there. Here in the PI, you might pay too much for a pair of sunglasses or a trike ride. There in the US, "professionals" will lie to your face and scam you for a lot more money.

This unit might be more useful to rent out on a short-term basis rather than a foreigner attempting to live in it.

We love houses for the same reason lots of space, but there are those that like how simple you can live and walk to everything in Condos.

It's funny how your priorities change over time. We went from a 3500sqft house to a 130sqft rv when in the US and a 600sdqft condo in Iloilo. We find life so much more enjoyable now with a lot less things.
Do you guys live in Iloilo now?
