Apartment Hunting Only $350 a Month? Philippines 

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

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.

Wow bro! You absolutely made us decide to go over there that we can save rather than spending all our earnings here in usa

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.

Mike...Thank you so much for showing us some condos. It is much appreciated. The studio would be fine by me...if there were only a balcony! Please keep them coming

I admit Thailand have the best facilities and aminities for better living, but I will always choose the Philippines because of their hospitality and the people.

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.

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

That 2 bedroom was nice. I see new mattresses, gray paint on the walls, new shower door and new stackable washer and dryer in the shared bathroom. I'll take it. 😊

Love these apartment hunting video. Please keep these coming. Thank you!

Great video. I just moved into my studio condo over in megaworld. Month to month is definitly the way to go.

Thank you for a great video. Please keep more of these coming,.. especially on the lower price level.

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. 😀😀

S&R is my fav grocery store in the Philippines similar to Costco with Kirkland Products. Only P700 membership per year. Cheaper than Costco membership.

Really helpful video. Your content is always tops! Thanks so much.

Thank you for these amazing insights into the world of condos. Really great! IloIlo really seems to be a great place to be.

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

Really nice! Loved this session! Thanks, guys... 🙏🙏🙏 👍😎👍

Your girl is the star of the show😂 she is gorgeous!

Nice Video Bro 🎉

Boy, you have me planning my retirement there! Thanks for the video!

nice ! great info.

I appreciate the tour but I found the prices to be a little too expensive. It would be ok if that was in Canadian dollars.

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.

very nice units I've heard thy can really nail you on the parking fees in some condos you should include the parking fees in the video as well

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?

You 2 did a good job on this video.

Thank you for sharing the information

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. LOL, thanks for the good 21 minutes watching.

One of the beautiful vlogs ive seen from you guys !!!

This is a great video since we are planning to move from here in South Korea to Iloilo. Our plan is to enroll our kids to Ateneo de Iloilo.

You gave such a great tour, I hope they give you a commission if those units get rented as a result of your video. They should at least give you a nice dinner at one of the high-end restaurants.

This city is starting to grow on me. I want to visit Iloilo City

Nice apartment if I needed zpartmdnt would take that studio for a modern building affordable anyways and decent size to

Hi,great video i hope you do more videos of condos in the area,specially mega word area please, thank you very much 😊

$350? My studio apt costs $700. Man I'm coming back!

18m² in Manila is 650€ and more. Depends on where and what you want inside. Crazy difference.

The 1 room is really nice

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.

Ill pay the additional 50 usd higher than Thailand or Vietnam to stay in PH, nothing that Thailand or Vietnam has interest me enough to go there even if the condos there were 10 usd per month.

I rented a 2 bedroom modern condo in Thailand for 500 a month. Filipino condos and apartments are overpriced for what you get. The internet in Thailand is cheaper and more reliable. My aircon was 60 in Thailand and 75-150 in the philippines.

nice, now I want to retire in illoilo

My one small room here which is not furnish is costing me $1,300 except elect,except water and except wifi and tv cable

Hmm I’m going to Iloilo three months maybe 6 so I’ll save this info . Question are utilities included? Thanks

Great vid guys

21:07 what music is that? Who's the band?

MACTAN in cebu has some great apartments with pool /gym/ guards a lot cheaper and on the coast

@ 17:45 darn it, was hoping pretty gurl includ. ..... 🤣

This was a great video! Just what I was looking for. I have just one question. Do they have backup power for those brown outs that I keep hearing about. 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)

The one bedroom is nice but the bed is too small.

Is there available 2 bedroom unit locted in 2nd or 3rd floor.? We are seniors so we prefer the lower floor. How much is the price? Thanks. Merle from USA.

Thanks guys very informative video only thing im in Canada and for us Canucks prices in Canadian dollars would be nice god bless🙏

❤

I think pricing here in Eastwood is much more reasonable. When it comes to renting that i why a stayed here. And like mu work from that building that im currently renting in its just 3 to 5 mins walking distance hehe

You know you guys are really good at presenting the units. Should maybe get jobs as realtors. Thoughts? Thanks Mark Euringer

The rent is very similar in Manila, too expensive considering in Iloilo

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!

Is this vedio shot in cebu business park around cause studio rent is very affordable ?

This would be perfect for my daughter and myself. We are moving from Vancouver island and plan on being there for a few years. My wife's family is in Dumangas and Miagao. We visited this past March/April and loved it.

Hello can I ask who I can contact the one who in charge that condo ,as soon as possible coz we really like the place we wanted to rend the one with 1room for a month, looking forward to hear the reply ASAP

The first two bathrooms and two bedrooms at 40000 Filipino pesos a month is not my cup of tea.. I would rather have a furnished rent house for about the same price in a nice subdivision with a pool and clubhouse and gym included.."seek and ye shall find"

❤❤❤

Ultra expensive, my 2 bed in Cebu is 210usd a month.

i guess the best power back is solar power might just as well ask inquire about its reliability and how to acquire it install it properly so you wont be dependent un the unreliable electric service here in the Philippines God bless Bianca and Michael for promoting the Philippines

I wish you had put the location in print. Where were you? Lol thanks

Ah La Ya...but Ah Leya is close enough ....but no cigar 😂

Curious is there like a farmers market nearby there i think it wkuld be cheaper and better quality than sm market and i think its cheaper in a farmers local market. Likd videos like that much apfeciated to seee rental mkdern units for 1 prson and 2 people thanks for

Prices quoted are Metro-Manila prices. Iloilo City catching up!

Curious I missed the name of that place do you mind let me know please

Heyy, Michael with the real estate license! This may be your calling; your business degree in finance is coming in handy! 👏🤗

I’m interested in one bedroom , if still available? Ty

Iloilo City is really progressing rapidly.Nice place to retire for the expats.

🥰🥰🥰

Compare Boston to BGC and not the Provence. I live in a verry nice suburb of OKC, nice schools, safe and clean. I have a three/four-bedroom bought less than 3 years ago, 2 car garage, for 100K to buy and I can buy a real nice, safe house in Oklahoma from 25K to 100K in many cities. I am a disabled veteran and pay No property taxes, no state taxes and no sales takes, no car tags, my Medicare part A is free and have a I also have the VA so free medical, free hearing, free teeth care and free glasses. In the USA Interest rates are cheaper, Land prices are cheaper, used car prices are cheaper, western foods are cheaper, electronics is cheaper. In the USA has so much land that is nice and the water and the air is cleaner, garage sales are great, stores have great sales all the time. The Philippines is not clean, more polluted air, water and Noice. the Philippines pays very little wages, and the Philippine people have to struggle every day and then there so many dogs and everything is controlled by the Chinese. In the Philippine you have 125 million people in the same amount of land that Oklahoma has 4 million. Stop bragging about other countries for the USA is a decent place and has given you a great pension. I lived in the Philippines for 10 years.

Not far off prices in Perpignan, France. Just shows to me that life must be difficult for many locals at those kinds of prices.

Do you have any realtors I can contact to find a nice fully furnished pet friendly to buy or rent because I have two cats ??

I will be moving to Cebu City on September 25th. I figure I will spend 6 months there while I look around for a more permanent place. I will definitely come visit Iloilo and San Joaquin. What I might do live 6 month in Cebu City, 6 months in Iloilo, 6 months in San Joaquin, 6 months in La Union City, Boracay for 6 months etc etc … in 5 years I could live in 10 different areas before I decide on a permanent place 😂. I’m single and won’t get myself tied down with a girlfriend. All I need is a gym, outdoor pool, a good coffee shop, a few decent local restaurants, a 24 hour 7-11 and a sports bar. I figure I can live pretty comfortably on $2,000 USD in the Philippines. Especially if I am not supporting a girl friend and her family 😂

Living in Iloilo is cheaper than major cities but it will cost you so much if you're the type to eat out every time... I find Cebu's meals and serving more affordable than Iloilo's... But(and major BUT), Ilonggo foods are much more playing into the taste buds... Sweet, sour, and salty in the end... Manila(lutong tagalog) more salty and spicy...

O sooo fascinatingly, in Iloilo, Amazing 😱😱😱😱😱😱🥳🥳💯

Michael and Bianca, you guys are getting famous in the Philippnes. Never gets tired of promoting tourism in the country. Bianca is half Filipino so you guys can buy land there for future home. ( I hope I'm not mistaken) please correct me if I'm wrong.

Nah 17k per month for that studio ? Nah.. Idk where that is but that kind of studio is similar to what we have here in CDO and it only costs 8k monthly

The studio is my favorite. What does it include?❤

Unless you have only a handful of shirts and pants, there is no where in those bedrooms to put your clothes. I can't imagine 2 people sharing a small condo like that. You would drive each other crazy. You could rent an entire house for $40,000 pesos a month. This unit might be more useful to rent out on a short-term basis rather than a foreigner attempting to live in it.

Hello guy"s do you know if the hospital if it is public or private? Thanks!

No lap pool

Do they have a casino in Iloilo where I can bet on NFL and College Football? I’m currently living in the Dominican Republic where they have sports books on nearly every street corner. I’m up about 20,000 pesos this month (around $400 USD) betting baseball. The Seattle Mariners are going to win the World Series this season. You heard it here first. My sleeper team this year in the NFL is the New Orleans Saints. You heard it here first.

i couldn’t find this .can you write down here the area and building

👍✅🙀✅👍

where location please

Another info-filled vlog on housing options, Michael & Bianca. Thank you! ... Btw: A-YA-LA is pronounced more like "Apple", vs the word "ate." The Ayala "brand" is highly regarded and revered. The family is one of the Philippines' prominent old-money clans.

❤️❤️❤️🍀🍀🍀🍀

Were s immigration ? Is this manilla?

Studio $350! No thx ! Get a townhouse in das MA's or davoa in gated comm. $250ish!

I enjoy your videos but they are too lengthy watching forn20 minutes isn't in the cards

I ran the numbers and it looks like those first 2 units are around $1.09 USD per sq ft. I'm paying $1.86 sq ft here in southern California for a nice 750 sq ft one bedroom condo on 3rd floor. Granite counters in Kt and bath with travertine flooring, stainless steel appliances, electric oven/cooktop, dishwasher, washer/dryer, full size SS refrigerator, vaulted ceiling, wraparound balcony overlooking greenbelt, walk-in closet, spacious covered carport, central AC and heat. Free water, trash pickup. Only downside carpeted master bed and living room. What can I get for $1400 a month rental in PI?

???? I have sent 2 messages past 2 days to mimz account to try and rent one of the condos but she has not returned them. Do u have another way to contact her. ?????

condos are

What city are you right now? Ill be in Manila around january for one month. Im looking for $16.00 dollar a day hotel. I prefer to stay at makati financial district area and close to shopping malls and foid court.
