My name is Kevin. I hope you will enjoy my videos of my great new life of early retirement in Dumaguete in the Philippines. Come along on my island hopping trips to beaches, snorkeling, mountains, waterfalls and other Philippine destinations. I’ll introduce you to friends, so you can learn about dating, finding a place to live, restaurants, and best places to buy groceries

Buying a house in the Philippines is like making a donation. No exaggeration.
I myself am a renter
Look for rent-to-own properties. Usually, DMCI has that payment scheme. If you need to sell, you get back your equity payments and the buyer assumes the balance.
What do you mean by donation?
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65Smart man
@@rein3684You never technically own it outright 😊
The beachfront rental few days ago with guest house would be my choice .
That’s my favorite too Courtney 😉
I guess that would be good for someone that does not want to use or more likely does not want to maintain a yard, but for me, at that price I would want to have a yard with more outdoor living space….. unless there are too many bugs or insects out to enjoy.
Yeah, it has to be the tiniest lot in the subdivision
Nice area, I've heard of it before but I've never seen anyone show us the area before. Thanks Kevin. Thanks for the maps too.
Thanks for watching Stan! I’d driven past it before, but never been in either
You can't kick her and her family out if things go bad she owns a majority and if you sell she at the very least gets a majority of the money. She can rent it out and keep it there’s nothing you can do. You cannot buy even if it’s under a company, the company owner must be a Philippine Citizen and be a majority share holder. Don’t be a statistic.
Definitely do your homework!!
Many thanks for sharing mate.😊
IMPORTANT. If you use a Filipino to put the land title in, then put a personal mortgage on that land for its purchase. That way you control everything and they can't have 100% ownership of it because it has no equity in it. Don't trust anybody. Best still use off shore company to lend the money (which is really you but no one can prove it) to the land purchase. $1,000 cost but it saves you from corrupt partners. You have been warned. Best of luck, Steven
Anytime it can’t be in MY NAME - I don’t own a damn thing! Best advice given in this video is, “Don’t take advice from some random guy on CZcams”! 🙂
If I can only rent the land - I’ll rent anything on it too!
Be careful guys - don’t think that any woman, anywhere (once they realize they have the upper hand) won’t have your ass legally removed from her land or her house if she can find a way to do it (and she’s tired of you)!
Now - I know you’re saying, ‘oh, my wife/girlfriend/partner is different - we’re in love’… …maybe… but why risk it?
I genuinely hate the crudeness of this axiom… but it somehow fits: ‘If it floats, flies or fu@ks - rent it’!
I agree 100%. I’m not buying anything, BUT you would be surprised how many people do it here
I saw this on FB market place but your video shows it off much better
Thanks! I appreciate that…sorry for the late response
Good video Kevin
Hahaha, thanks mom!😀
Very nice house!
Thanks Mike
Not Puerto Rico Style. It's called Spanish Style. The Philippines were a colony of Spain for over 300 years.
Thanks for watching Michael! There was a house we passed in there named “Puerto Rico”, that’s why I said that.
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 I understand.
And the Spanish got it from the Arabs, who got it from the.... Denisovans?
NICE
Always enjoy your real estate videos.. thanks 😊
Thanks Richard!
Thanks for showing Kevin as I like seeing your various rentals, etc... This prop, no thanks, it's a hard pass for me. I'm trying to be nice here!
Bottom line, guys, it's prob better to rent than buy. I'm 62 and after doing the math it doesn't make sense to buy. Plus selling is a much more complex than in the US.
I live in BGC, and it's still cheaper to rent at my age.
Do your homework, ask a lot of questions!
I hear ya Dave! I’m a renter too😉
Champagne wishes and Caviar dreams.
Hahaha, that’s right Robin Leach😂!
Really nice looking house 🏡
Thanks for watching Ty! Glad you like it 😉
Luv the area
It’s a NICE neighborhood, I think I would do better than this though. It’s definitely the smallest lot and house in the entire neighborhood
Floors are awesome
👍🏻
Nice property! Nice price too! I have great reservations about the explanation you give about ownership. I built a house in the Philippines before and lost it when I divorced my wife. Your theory sounds good, but your house is immovable, so whoever owns the land owns everything on it. Of course, if the house is in your name, you can send in a demolition team and leave her with only the land, but I don't think that would solve your problem. Unless you are so rich that p9m is peanuts to you, I would look before you leap.
I’m a renter, like I said….do your due diligence 😉
It appears that's the smallest house in that gated community, bet those big ones go for over $400K !
Nice to finally see a house without bars on the windows, guess it's an indication it really is a safe
neighborhood :) Thanks for sharing this video ! I have to say though that if you are a foreigner it
is simply too risky to buy land and put the property under someone else's name except if you have
been married to a Pinay for many years and have a solid relationship - even then I'd look at her and
say 'hmmmmm' :) Why even buy when you can easily rent ? Too many guys have been burnt,
don't add yourself to that list. 😆
I agree 100%. I’m a renter 😉
Never become more valuable dead then alive. Rent don’t buy.
Horrible….but so true!
Hahaha, truer than you think!😉
The house alone looks like less than 500,000 thousand pesos. Their must be gold bars inside to be 9 million .
Everything is negotiable…I need to see if it sold yet. Sorry for the late response
The best advice that you can give someone is to do their own research! Whether news articles, legal advice, or accounting, Rich people get and stay rich by trusting no one completely. They have accountants to double/triple/quadruple check the first set of accountants. Teams of lawyers researching every business deal. For those of us who cannot afford a whole team of high priced individuals, use your brain for something other than a hat rack. Research!
I agree 100% RR😉
Ha, that's exactly what I needed to do -- hired hotshot lawyer from the big city to keep tabs on the provincial lawyer who took over from the scammy lawyer.
I like it! Jen has eager hopes right now .. will be great if Kevalynn has Live from a place like this,
enough rom for Dance videos too
Hahaha
This is the Best tour of Dumaguete Subdivision so far
Thanks BA! We appreciate you watching 😉
What a beautiful home…..😊
Thanks for watching Marc! I’m glad you liked it 😉
The ritziest barrio in Duma... hmm. The road looks like it hasn't been paved since Macarthur landed, the patches of land in on the undeveloped sides make it look like you're driving through an abandoned airbase or overgrown forest, and the houses look like they are 10 feet apart. Every homeowner could kick in 1000 pesos a month and they would have something beautiful. But this has Pagudpud or Chernobyl vibe.
Welcome to the Philippines!😉
That is a great home. Would be truly interested in getting more information.
John, contact Alma Almonte Fulco on Facebook. She can get that for you 😉
That’s not true. Your wife can sell the land. Don’t buy. Don’t buy
I’m a renter, like I said….do your own due diligence 😉
I have a friend who lives near there albeit a more modest home. That area is very nice and as you said it might be the nicest area in Duma. That house is nice! Location location location! Thanks for showing this house. Love real estate videos from the Philippines.
That some HUGE nice homes in there 😉
I love the place . I’m planning to buy a house and retirement place🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it😉
Some guys like the risk of purchasing a home there’s no way I would spend that kind of money when they’re so cheap rentals available. I’ve never been a gambler.
That is a super nice place though !!!
The dog would have to be trained if he continually barks !!!
The two stray dogs would “disappear” if I moved in. I’m a renter as well, especially since we are thinking of traveling and living on other islands when I get back
one day that would do me. nice house and good legal tips
Thanks for watching Owen! I appreciate it😉
I hate speed bumps
Those were HUGE!
$163,000 or P9,000,000 for the house only. The land is leased 99 years. You're all caught up.
You didn’t say anything about the rooms or square meters of the house. Would you buy a house from your information?
I stop watch all this realestate in Philipine for a while already because the price not reasonable anymore let them make money from some one else but not your just wait and see the Philipine realestate game.
Thanks for watching Nick!
Every home has a speed bump
Those things were HUGE
Typical Filipino house math. My house is more than 150 sq/m and much larger than this house. I guess they counted the swimming pool and carport and roof and ceiling area and wall area as part of the floor space. Ridiculous. Anyway...very nice CLEAN house. Too bad there's not really any grass to speak of but at least there's no yard work. Very nice neighborhood. I know the Phils is going crazy with rent and real estate but this is maybe a 7.5M PHP realistically at best. But I guess you got to grab everything you can during a gold rush. After all there is a sucker born every day and this and much of the Philippines is now acting in the spirit of Evergrande and Chyna.
I’m a renter myself, but I agree with you….especially without air conditioners
Nice digs !
I’d like to see it when it’s finished
Nice job
Thanks John!
Barking dogs day and night, if this is the best u can imagine the rest...😉
Those two dogs that we running free and barking would “disappear” if I moved in.😉
Very pricey but looks nicely build house
I’d like to see it when it’s finished and furnished
Nice
Where you at man!? I’m leaving Saturday!
Was there screens on those windows? If not, you're inviting all kinds of bugs spiders and lizards into the house 🙄 Thanks for sharing!
🤔I don’t think there we screens…..those windows open out, so the screens would have to be inside. You might be ok during the day, but you’d definitely get some creepy crawleys at night 😉
C,mon. What kind of layout is that? 3rd bedroom adjoins the kitchen?
I have no idea
Why in the world build the pool in front of the house? My guess is privacy is not a thing there, it's showing off your pool to the passers by, drive bys.
My guess is to keep the home as far away from the street noise as possible. They have a wall, so you would have to walk up to see inside the yard
The whole house has worst planning I have ever seen even location of the pool is terrible.
Hi Kevin any advise which area in Dumaguete that is near to the ocean and easy access to amenities that I can buy the land and build our dream house my wife is a Filipina but they live in Bukidnon we are looking more with ocean view if we can afford it
Thanks for watching Shane! A sea view🤔 you can get that in Dauin. Beachfront will be expensive, and you will have to go at least to Dauin, but probably further south. I recommend reaching out to Alma Almonte Fulco on Facebook. That’s the realtor that I work with
I think it looks great. You're paying for brand new, private pool and the privilege part of the city.. I would think they'll ne putting in AC.
I just confirmed, the owner isn’t putting in ACs….I think that will be negotiated through 😉
Very Well Aged always says....99 year lease of land and buy the house. That is how foreigner get a stable lot.
Thanks for watching Ted! Yes, definitely do your due diligence 😉
It is insanely overpriced for Philippines, you can build that house for 30-40k $ maybe less, if you live in philippines :)
Hey Kevin, Good job on channel. Coming into Duma next week with girlfriend, let us know if you guys are available for lunch to chat.
Thanks for watching Doyle! I wish I could, but I am Heading back to Houston Texas Saturday. I won’t be back until October 11th
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 next time
Terrible design who wants a 3 foot pool and underwhelming kitchen baths and floor plan
Thanks as always for watching Alan. You never know, someone will buy it eventually though.
Looks like granite countertops. I would prefer quartz more durable and not prone to heat.
No, I was hoping it was granite considering it’s a new construction but it’s not. It was some kind of tile
Looks like a nice place. How about you buy this one and I’ll take over your place😂😮
Hahaha, i’ll stick to renting 😉
Owning the house and not the land the house is built on, sounds like an oxymoron to me.
What happens to the house if the land is sold from under it? 😅
Before you buy it, you get an attorney and write up a contract for a 25 year lease with the option for another. The landlord cannot sell it, nobody else can move in and you get power of attorney. Basically a lifetime lease…sorry for the late response
It’s actually pretty common. The original land owner doesn’t want to give up any mineral rights. It happens all the time in the US.
And of course there are clauses in the contract that they can’t just kick you off the property
I have one question about a foreigner buying a home in the Philadelphia---WHY?
Exactly, I would never live in Philadelphia
Hahaha, I hear ya John. I’m not sure why people would buy here. Maybe if I had a nice piece of beachfront property, but i’d much rather rent 😉
@@ziggarillo autocorrect
do they rent houses is that closed community? i have trust issues, id never put a house in anyone's name.
There aren’t very many in there, and the ones that are….are HUGE! This house is definitely going to be the “runt” of the neighborhood. Rents would be high if there were any vacancies
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 thanks your time answering my question... I'm moving to the Philippines and the end of the year or the 1st quarter of 2025. I'm just trying to figure out the best starting point "home base" before my move.
Well sad but true do research first do you homework remember Philippines is beautiful but it called ring of fire surrounding by active volcanoes earthquake and flooding and typhoon poverty is 18% and rising with the cost of living 40 million Filipino people don't have fresh clean water and washing their own clothes by dirty sewer water you need to go to the Philippines yourself traffic in big cities us overcrowded and you be in traffic for hours there no red light or stop signs people with scooter will drive on sidewalk and thru streets that fill with people remember there no sidewalk in the Philippines so you always have be careful driving cause people will walk in the streets and roads
@user-td9rr1op8e I'm still going to move to the Philippines for at least 1 year. I'm looking at a place where the traffic isn't to crazy, Valencia maybe. I'll fly to and from tourist spots.
I just said I moved to the Philippines myself Probably dumagata but foreign can't buy houses lands or rent apartments they only can rent condos or buy them but I can buy land or houses in the Philippines cause I'm native American and Asian mixed especially being Mongolian and Filipino decent myself
Great Place .you couldn't buy that in the U.S. for that price. If you could get an SPA or a 50 year land contract that would be Great.
You can get that in the usa if you move to a small town in Arkansas Oklahoma ect. Lol😅
Definitely do your due diligence 😉
Can you find out cost of land in that are too?
Thanks for watching! That would be a great question for Alma. You can find her on Facebook “Alma Almonte Fulco”
I wonder if they do land contracts or rent to own?
I think you can lease land there. Maybe a 25 year contract at a time. It was on Pea 🫛’s channel with Lawyer Gracie
Yes, you can rent the land for 25 years with an option for 25 more is my understanding, but after that the owner keeps everything. That doesn’t bother me, because I’d be 108 after two contracts
I'd prefer the pool in the back and I don't like the location of the second bathroom. Otherwise the size is good.🏝️
Pool in the backyard would be better….a deeper pool would be better too. It gets hot here, and 3’ can warm up quick
Apparently EVERY house in the Philippines has a poop room right off the kitchen for reasons unknown to all the intellectuals of the world. Maybe that's where the term dirty kitchen comes from.
Wow 100K + home with no ac !?!?
Yeah, I just verified that they are NOT putting them in.

You’re preaching to the choir 😉
How much are the property taxes?
About $15USD per year😂
😮❗️@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65
Too many quirky things going on in that house.
It’s not for me
If you can and i can get 6 percent annuity and in a cash country 160000 rents the nicest places around
Yep, but there are people who want to buy. Not me, but they are out there
If you have a child or adopt a child under your name and pit the land on the child is it possible.
Yes, that’s what my landlord did. It’s in his son’s name
Be good to know if the properties have Internet connection. Fibre Optic.
My guess would be no🤔. I would actually invest in Starlink. They are running a promo in the Philippines: 20,000 PHP for all of the equipment and $50/month for the service. My friends who have it, swear by it😉
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65That sounds good 👍. STARLINK
You could see all the infrastructure driving thru the hood. Yes they've got internet in the nicest neighborhood in Dumaguete. Can you imagine a neighborhood with underground utilities. Then maybe the house would almost be worth the price since you could fly a kite.
HOW MUCH
I don’t remember, the price in different world currencies is at the end

Still for sale ?
Thanks for watching Colin. You can reach out to Alma Almonte Fulco on Facebook and see
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 ..not on FB .. Can you send E Mail?
You buy it.
No GS, i’m a renter 😉
are you kidding me why you want to own a house like this I mean with a partner owning the land they can come and build a grass shack beside your so called house have 20 family members and you got no say so don't do it
Yeah investing my money into land that I can not own seems like really really stupid. What is the point of a pool that small? All those speed bumps would annoy the phook out of me. So that is 0 points there with the recommendation: must try harder
Stay in the west with the over price property, sure your pocket change won't be miss.
Waite until you get a divorce then she say move your house off my land, than you really in trouble.
Bulldoze it and leave a BIG mess😉. Don’t ever buy anything that you can’t afford to walk away from. I rent myself
@@TooMuchTimeonmyHands65 People or Trolls talk out of there ass, First off all of this is relevant to people living this lifestyle so if you don't like it stay in the states with your nagging wife who will get the house when you die anyway. And if an older man finds the love of his life in the PH then he should want her taken care of when he is gone if she was good to him .And me personally I have a rule about money .I never spend or loan out or invest more then i can afford to lose .And as my man said or i'm saying now if i came home and she was with another guy or something,I would then have a Bulldozer party.
Too soon to show
I agree, I thought it was finished. I actually have no idea what we are going to see until we get there
Totally over priced for the Philippines 9 million peso. Such a small place . Its priced for foreigners. You could buy land and get building company to build that yourself for less them 2 million peso. Total rip off at 9 million
Thanks for watching! I appreciate it😉
Build that that for 2M ? Dream on Alice. Your in wonderland.
this guy is desperate to sell don't fall for it he could care less if you become one of these expats with a sad story plus who wants to put up with barking dogs all day
