@@mikemulholland8092 Oh you speak very well of Southern Language congrats!

Yea we dont need entitled mentality in the PH to ruin it for the rest of the folks that understand shit like you not In America Todo

Sorry, I think it's too much bragging, only my opinion !

Thank you, I’m humbled by your compliment. Jake’s team does the video and editing. I merely “ talk too much”😂😂

Wow, thank you for the kind words and encouragement. Mike

Great place to do that

58 and starting a family in the Philippines? You’re a joke. You don’t the culture and not everything you see in the net is bed of roses. Filipinas are just going to scoop your money as you’re going to feed and her entire village. Stay where you are in the U.S. as your systems is working well for you. Be happy and contented with what you have. I’m a Filipino born and raised in the Philippines. Ive never been happier to be out of a corrupt country . Be well and don’t jump in a “frying pan. “

When neighbors ask for help and you have no money to give , Filipino folks appreciate fruits or herbal plants from your garden that you give them.

I appreciate the kind words, best wishes in your endeavors

Yes sir!

Awesome!

So true

Your comment and ones like it , have encouraged me to do additional info.

He’s available for consultation. Due to the overwhelming demand for his services we created a website with a calendar booking form to make it easy to schedule a meeting with him. buyphilippinesrealestate.com/

Thanks Peter

@@mikemulholland8092 Mike, I’m potentially interested in speaking with you and booking a consultation. I’d like to know which island you live on? I’m from the US, Florida to be exact, but I’m looking to invest and live in the PH. I met my wife 14 years ago in America but her grandfather was 100% Filipino, and through my research, I believe she could gain citizenship by lineage potential allowing us to do a project like this.

You’ll have a blast creating n dreaming up your project

Interesting, the weight may be a challenge. Water proofing certainly would be critical. I had some “ weeping” as moisture weeper thru the wall of a tank. I drained it cleaned it and reposted it. That’s why I know it’s a tomb inside😊. I think if you poured your roof like another floor and used the slightly sloped roof top to direct your “ roof catchment” to a containment of your choice below, I think you would avoid a lot of potential problems. I like the idea of gravity flow but that’s a lot of engineering and increased structure expense. I do like the way you think though. I have an ocean front lot near my house and I’m trying to design it typhoon proof or as close to it as I can and the roof is my challenge, lots of choices. I have considered a concrete roof deck collection , with solid railing protecting solar panels

So if water Containers are built as a tank and a open top catch on tanks wouldn’t that create a bird habitat in the pond along with algae ? Or will it have a roof / water catch over the tank ?

@@MR.G-N2IT I’m considering , on my next project, a slightly sloped roof deck. But I would catch the water n drop it below in a tank.

@@mikemulholland8092 Thanks Mike that sounds like a better idea 💡 than. Concrete tanks on a roof , like AJ was suggested

Nice idea! But consider that Phils is along the world’s active fault line. Earthquake is inevitable. So do a complete structural design and waterproof in order not to ruin your dream house.

I know a guy😂😂😂

Thank you

Hey, thanks . Thanks for taking the time to throw some love my way. I hope those interested find this helpful and encouraging. Mike

This is what happened in our town. There's widening of the roads twice and yes it reduced your property and gues what your house included in it. Fortunately those good oldies we have in my town thought of that way before it happened. Majority of the houses were built way far from the road but it took a big chunks of my dad's property. Now in the city of Iloilo I feel so bad when they built that old airport into a business world and widened the highways. So many, thousands of houses, concrete old ancestral houses were all destroyed to pave for wide highway. There must be resistance and litigations but when the government takes over you get what cheap cost they offer. Great job for Mr. Xpat to think ahead. I grew up when many of our ancestral houses where built during the American eras. My parents and relatives ancestral houses were huge, open double stories in Panay. It was just a huge loss when they all destroyed it for the roads and highways.

Best of luck!

Are foreigners now allowed to own a lot/ land?

Thank you, I’m now going to tile the columns with tiles I make from the rock

@@mikemulholland8092 I'm curious to see that.

I’m sure we share a few traits. It sure is an adventure. Sounds like a cool project you took on , much respect to you sir.

Thanks you Tita,mike

Yes, exactly , I lost 20lbs on that darn jack hammer.

Thanks, I was a young man when first I was told that…. It stuck😂😂
