- Convenience is a major advantage to renting a condo in IT Park, Cebu City, the Philippines. A "city within a city", IT Park offers a large Ayala Mall, condos, restaurants, banks, a transportation h ub, and so much convenience.
Located in Lahug, Cebu City, it is near hospitals, other malls, education, and more. Asia Premiere, Avida, Calyx, Avida Riala towers, and 38th Park Ave condos each offer their unique advantages and amenities.
These types of videos ( Showing 1 bed condos) and the $$$
Are the best
Thanks Greg.
Good video. I sent messages to 2 or 3 of those listings on that website. No one responded. I wasn't surprised. I got approached by 2-3 real estate agents and they were so disorganized or ignored everything i said that i just gave up finding a place. I was also quoted absurd prices like 70k pesos for a new one bedroom in a new condominium. One agent just asked me how much i wanted to spend, over and over again, then sent irrelevant listings with tiny "photos of photos" displayed on a smartphone and without prices. Way to go! Such total laziness and incompetence. It's a completely F&&&&& market. I can't say enough bad about it. People with no shame in behaving openly that all they care about is their commission. Lazy, unprofessional, unable to communicate..... Those units are empty mostly because the owners and agents are ignorant fools.
Thanks for sharing your experience.
Greedy agents and unrealistic prices. Market dominated by Asian, mainly Chinese investors. Bubble will burst soon, biggest Chinese building companies going bankrupt!
It's a nightmare dealing with real estate agents there.
i was in IT park 4 times for 1 month each in the past 18 months, everytime avida or 38 ave, i can recommend 38 ave for sure. moving there in august permanently. i already contacted some real estate agents on lamudi and so far they dont negotiate. i will rent fpr a month again on 38 ave and look for a nice condo for a 1 year contract by myself. i was hoping you show a bit more condos and not just on lamudi, bec i can do that bymyself online. but thansk for your effort, 1st i thought i saw myself in your video when u were walking in IT park at the beginning, i was there the entire may, damn it was hot :D
Thanks and good luck searching.
Nice info video Rod,keep them coming 😊
Many thanks Edwin.
Great video. Thanks for sharing.
Always look forward to the updates
Thanks Bob.
Thanks for mentioning your playlists. Lots of videos with good information to check out. Am not really interested in condos but still liked your presentation. Good job, rod...Jim
Many thanks Jim.
I always use Airbnb as I never spend more than a month in Cebu. So far for me Mactan Newtown is the best although its one hours bus ride to Ayala or 500 pesos by taxi but I get double sizes condo for the same price and no pollution like in IT Park.
Thanks for the valuable information Rod. 😎
Thanks Wes.
Thank you for so much detailed.
Thanks Paul.
These are great informational videos. I lived in Mabolo in a high rise Condo for 4 yrs in two different units. It's close to IT park but the rent is a little lower. I've walked around IT Park before and if you want the conveniences it's definitely worth it. I'm getting ready to return to the PH I miss flying into Cebu Mactan Airport because it's such an easy airport to fly into. I'd like to consider moving back to Cebu but a relationship is diverting me elsewhere in the Philippines.
Thanks for sharing Steve. Relationships is what drives many to a particular region. Good luck.
Thanks 👍 very good content.
Glad you liked it James.
Good info, thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Looks nice.
Thanks Manuel.
Always enjoy your vids Rod. Was in Moalboal last week. Nice to see it thriving once again but there are a few new businesses along the main road that dont seem to fit into the quaintness of it all.
Thanks for the info Jim. It will be interesting to see how Moalboal evolves in the coming years.
600 USA for a one bedroom condo w that sq meters is no great deal Rod! 😅
It is a bit relative. It would cost me $1000+ in many places in the USA Tom.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Rod of course it’s all relative.
No offense, but your cost per sq meter is related to building cost and maybe quality and not indicative of “best bang per peso(buck)”.
In Thailand, a 3/3 very new townhouse w full a/c and 2 car covered parking is 12000 baht or 320 USA dollars!
The cost per sq meter is the builders measure of anticipated profit!
Good see you again
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Rod, the cost of housing in the USA has been out of control for years, and that’s one reason people leave for a bigger better deal!
Renting a room in a nice quality home w your own bathroom was 400 per month 20 years ago!
That’s the relative opportunity cost comparison a renter should be looking at …not cost per Sq meter!
Agreed that is far to high compared to Thailand or Vietnam etc for something equivalent
@@mullera007 absolutely
Thanks for the info!
Thanks Jim.
CEBU IT PARK IS USED TO BE THE OLD LAHUG AIPORT, NOW ITS A BUSINESS DISTRICT IN CEBU. HOUSES CONDOMINIUMS, OFFICES, BPOS, LUXURY MALLS, LUXURY HOTEL, STREET FOODS RESTAURANT, PARKS...ITS NICE PLACE,...!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks for sharing
I stayed in the Calyx Residence when I was in Cebu last year. Definitely convenient access to everything
i never been there but it seems like a nice place. i think i may move there from 38th park ave.
@@tobiasmichaels1050 I looked at 38 park avenue to rent and the owner said only 1 elevator card given per unit. what was your experience?
@@meta4kl237 mgt needs improvement alot. it was just ok for me. 6 months there. i think there are better a bit cheaper too.
Thanks
Welcome Michael.
After talking to a few expats it seems you get more bang for your buck in Thailand. You can get a 48 sqm studio for $400 USD, in the Pattaya/Jomtien area. Prices in Thailand vary just like the Philippines and the condo owners in Thailand will negotiate a lower price. Infrastructure is way better in Thailand. Cebu city seems to be over priced when comparing price to the size. A lot of expats have moved to Thailand as the cost of living is lower and better food, plus a lot more choices on western cuisine. Thanks for the video
Good points. I have several friends who bounce between countries. Thai English...or lack of it is an issue for many. My friend just returned to Thailand and they told him he would have to apply for a more permanent visa as too many trips in as a tourist.
I saw your many vedios of SRRV .BUT NEVER MENTIONED ABOUT FOR 800 DOLLARS PERMONTH SOCIAL SECURITY PLUS 10000 DOLLARS IN PHILIPPINES BANK DEPOSIT SO I WANT TO KNOW HOW LONG 10000 DOLLARS HAVE KEEP IN PHILIPPINES BANK FOR SRRV ?
@@virendrapatel7277 This bond remains until you forfeit the visa, its not different in TH but the rest of the requirements are more difficult there
Thank friend Mr.rob for information .I vacationed in cebu tagayatay tagbilaran Roxas city subic olongapo makati caloocan city Quezon city batangas bohol ubay city luboc floating restaurant since 2014 to 2019 except 2017 so 5 years since I couldn't come there so will be in end of this year .but I like to stay in sanchez Apartell center in Alang Alang city .easy to go more malls from there plus this hotel on main Street so can see from room window .bottom in that building is 7/11 store .building is yellow 4 stories .
Yes I’m staying here in IT Park - for 6 months or more
AND??? What are you paying for rent...your other experiences??? A worthless post without details.
Great video! I think real estate folks in the Philippines can learn the real estate game from Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, and other southeast Asian real estate industry. The idea is to fill rental property with paying customers who will give them repeat business. I suspect the Philippine real property folks have over price and over valued their rental property. Thailand is a prime example of how to lower the real estate price points as well as include package deals with utilities. The Philippines is a developing country. Why would anyone want to pay high rent or buy these properties that are price in some cases higher than the western countries price points. Hopefully, the Philippines real estate agencies will learn how to play the game to win by providing value and package deals with reasonable price points. Just a thought but will probably never happen. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink. Its a sad way of doing business but hey its the Philippines!
I am told developers set prices here Joseph. My feeling is that they are over building with thousands of units coming online in the next couple of years. I was told that happened in Thailand many years ago resulting in lower prices and competition.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Thanks!
Hi Rob!! wow 7 years since we meet :). 44k Subscriber you are on a roll :) keep up the good work
Many thanks. I have met many interesting expats and Filipinos over these 8 years. Are you in Canada now?
@@AmazingPhilippines1 Yes. I have been here since June 2017. Plan to visit Ph, on May 2025
@@AmazingPhilippines1 yes still here
So your Advice would be to rent an Air bib for a few weeks and then go rental hunting once I'm there, or should I trust the website to set up everything for me before I get there, because in person I can negotiate for leasing/deposit options?
Good question. I think a week to month rental while checking out more permanent lodging is a good idea.
I remember us meeting a agent once I believe at the Grand Residence in that area. How many units did u scoop up over the years Sir Rody ?
LOL! They had a fire in one of the Grand Residences tall tower just before they were going to allow move in Lawrence. Not sure if it is repaired yet or not.
I’ve found IT Park to be a nice location for shopping and coffee shops but, it is not on the level of Ayala Business Park. For example, if you need JRC Immigration Services, HSBC Bank, Utility payments, you won’t find it in the IT Park. I consider the IT Park to be just a smaller less affluent self contained community. The Condominium Towers in IT Park are very old and the condominiums are not furnished well. I recommend the Business Park over IT Park.
Interesting points rfisher.
Not my experience at All. The IT park Vibe is much livelier and Upbeat. Its safer and much more walkable. than Business Park. There are Brand new Condo Projects Opening all the time ...Food , Bars, Restos, Malls, conventice stores , spas everywhere..the place is alive at 2 am and 3 am bustling.. unlike Business Park. But Business Park does have HSBC....but its scary to get your money there after hours.. quiet dark corner. anyway.. just my 2 cents YMMV>
Great video Rod. I think for me 100 m will be ideal for an expat and his Filipina. Btw, do you know of a place to rent a car for a few days?
Thanks Jimbo. The airport has several rental companies located there and others should be listed online.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 thank you Rod
Not bad for the price.
Yes, quite reasonable.
india st is 38th park ave
Try as I might, I just can’t bring myself to move back to the Philippines where the cost of living is 3 times more expensive for apartments, food and drinks than here in Cambodia. But that’s going by MY level of comfort and standard of living. Cambodia is also exotically asian-looking. The philippines is not. To each his own. 😎
One day I will visit Cambodia. I have heard the Chinese casinos have dramatically changed some of the cities there Wes.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 - Only Sihanoukville has been ruined by the Chinese casino and hotel investors.
IT Park is so nice and clean, but I don't want to be in a highrise.
From what i see on line., Avida does not have an indoor gym. Correct?
Correct. IT Park does have a modern gym for membership though not too far away, a couple of blocks.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 i researched and found Anytime Fitness, but way too expensive
Is the face diaper a mandatory practice there or are these folk in the background as you walk around wearing them voluntarily? I'm set to begin my expat experience a year from now with my long term Filipino wife but I do fear the living under a more authoritarian government than the current regime here in the US which is already too out of control. Appreciate the info.
That was from an older video I used Frank. Few face diapers any more.
Did you mention the cost of utilities during the summer?
I dropped my electric bill from 7600 to 3300 pesos/month by using a fan instead of AC many days so it really depends on ones usage Dave.
@@AmazingPhilippines1Thank you. how long ago was this?
Does IT Park have a hospital? Thanks, Rod, and take care.
Perpetual Succour hospital is about 3 Km’s away or just under 2 miles
Nice video. Thanks Rod.
No but close. There are a couple of medical offices there though.
I want a condo, next to the shopping mall.
This area, IT Park, has an Ayala Mall. Cebu Business Park...video coming soon, with Ayala Mall, also has several condos, 2 attached, Alcoves and Park Point, and others within a block or 2 Glenda.
What if you want to live just outside of IT park
There are several choices Paul. Older larger condos in The Sentinel. La Guardia Flats 1 and 2 are mostly studios. 88th Ave has serviced apartments. I have done videos of all of them.
Are the higher end condo's soundproofed ?
Nope
No sound proofing but most condos are built with cement walls, floors, and ceilings, so my experience is I hear less neighbor noise than I did in any "stick built" apartments in the states.
i live in 38th park ave
Cool! Enjoy.
I was there last year October, very small condos,no seperate kitchen,pool very small and it was under construction.
@@gaboristvankiska7655 i signed 1 year contract in sept 2023 so im locked in until sept this year. everything is open now but management sucks big time. i used the pool twice but i agree its small. the units are in line with others in the area but i think u can find better and outside the park they are cheaper. i will move in spet. there are better places out there.
I looked at 38 park avenue to rent and the owner said only 1 elevator card given per unit. what was your experience?
Are there any condos for rent near a decent beach near Cebu city?
Check out Mactan Newtown condos. I have done several videos there. The beach is 2 blocks away.
absolutley not. need to be on lapulapu
I watched the first few minutes...why an old video with Xmas decorations and everyone still wearing masks
That part of the video fit in with what I wanted to show.
What about if you bring small dogs that you need to take potty there. Are there grass inside the building somewhere or outside the building somewhere?
Good question. Most condos tell me no pets allowed so that could be a problem. IT Park does have a "park" open area where many take dogs....and don't pick up after them.
Tourist will not coming. Back to philippine like before
Landlord in cebu city now asking one. Month deposit for one month to staying in. Cebu city
Rental are very expansive compare to
Thailand In Thailand you can get 60 Sqm
For $250
Thailand info structure is lot superior to philippine overall lots better than cebu city I thing in in few years condo prices go down a lot more
Other good option in SE Asia is Vietnam .
The Philippines is the easiest to stay longer term though. I had a friend just return to Thailand and they told him he had to apply for a more permanent visa as he had come in too many times as a tourist.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 I do not even seen one
Nice clean street in Cebu city
Not even road from Airport to Cebu city
Is nice road
Now all companies try to relocate they
Manufactures from china to I know Malaysia according to Wall Street
I m coming over soon...are everyone still wearing masks?...
Masks not required but some are wearing them still, partly with pertussis, whooping cough, more common rupert.
Avida allows short term rentals and has the smallest lobbies in Cebu. Also 600+ units PER BUILDING. You will feel like you're in a zoo every time you're there
I dont know why the realtors tell every foreigner to live there. Think walls are closing in 😂
do they have a decent indoor gym?
@@meta4kl237 Solinea has a good gym. Ávida doesn't have one so far as I can tell.
Even the condos with the best gyms here in Cebu still don't have a free bar for squats and deadlifts, or a sauna, and many of them don't have pull up bars. In my opinion 99% of condo gyms here are insufficient.
why is every one wearing masks there when you showing there at the start im there in 17 day do you need wear masks again last year we did when we went to Cebu ?is Covid still there ive had all my 5 shots of that
No need for concern. He just used "stock" footage he had already taken during the pandemic for this video intro.
Some still wear face masks there still to this day ….likely woke Liberals
Older video for the view I wanted Kriss. Pertussis, whooping cough, is in a few areas and some wearing a mask hoping not to get it also. Some are just "conditioned" now. One girl told me she was wearing a mask because she was missing teeth.
Philippines is over priced and one of the main reasons I alternate between Thailand and Vietnam.
My friend just returned to Thailand from the Philippines. Immigration pulled him aside and told him he was coming too often and would have to apply for a more permanent visa. Apparently, tightening up their system kbird.
@@AmazingPhilippines1 I have a non-o retirement multi entry visa for Thailand and a 90 day for Vietnam. As along as you follow the immigration rules, there’s no problem.
@@kbird529 Yeah as long as you are qualified for a retirement visa. Not everyone is qualified yet so there's no other option than going back and forth for many lads.
@@JS-fd5ohan option for you is to alternate between Vietnam 90 day Visa. $90 USD and Cambodia 1 yr visa $300. ( I think the only requirement is being 55.) Cambodia is a hell of lot cheaper than PI.
@@kbird529 Thanks. But I still want to be in Thailand.
