Keep looking. House attached storage you can't use means you'll have the owner/manager in and out whenever they decide they need in the storage area.
Shared Master bath. Window AC units, not inverter/split systems. No screens on most windows. Storage units of auntie will breed bugs/vermin. Nanny bedroom better as pantry. I'd give it a pass.
Yeah. But look at the positives
As far as the screens are concerned get them made on aluminium frams and have them put on the inside with hindges so you can open and close .
brilliant.than you can take with you when you leave or sell to landlord.
Nice house - big rooms . 😀
I would be concerned how often - someone would be coming to the storage room . I would want my privacy - not someone showing up - anytime.
good point.
I'm sooo glad your showing these houses to get a great Idea on whats available and for how much. I'm like you. A little sweat equity is well worth the enjoyment you get with the improvements. Thanx. Love U's 2's
Crappy, too much repair to do and everything is dirty.
Looks like in a 1960's movie.
Ned, I own a new home in Talisay City and 3 of our windows have accordian screens. They pull to one side and fold to take up just a few inches.
Yes i stayed at a resort with French windows and doors windows had that little gate to open but doors you may need a drop down netting won't be cheap.
Maybe you can get internal fly screen door that open inside
There is a way to put screens night cuz I have them windows on my second house in Winthrop Harbor Illinois and I had the bars 2 first off it depends on if the windows open out or open in then you can get like maybe some half inch wood by maybe the enhancer to and just go around the outside if they open in and you're screwing into the wood
We been looking also and it very hard to find a Quiet place. I do have french windows where i live now, and also security grates. They install the screens first and then the grates on the inside of the windows. Good Luck !!
I've used a laser thermometer for years because I do AC work on cars and I use it to you no check the suction check the discharge on the compressor and then see how cold it is coming out of the vents
the screens can be mounted on inside with hand size little screen door for access to open window.. we have them here in cebu
Nice walk through. 2by2 sliding screens? I would have inserted the security into the frames more, then you could have had room for a single screen or 2 sliding screens.
I have seen screens used for sliding patio doors that close with magnets. I think you just secure them from the top and they hang straight down with a little weight embedded in them. Then to close there are magnets that secure the left/right sides of the screen. That may be an option for not only the french windows, but the main door as well. Best of luck.
I appreciate hearing you say that staying in the Philippines long-term, you'll be spending much of your time in your house. Where you live really should be as nice and pleasant as possible. I also liked hearing that you improve where you live, and that you're an ideal renter who leaves a house in better shape than you found it.
I've enjoyed many of your videos over the past few years, but it's been a while now. I see you've experienced some changes and weathered them well I hope. It really does appear that you have. I appreciate your good humor, your story telling, and you have that great "tell it like it is" manner. I also hope to cross paths with you some day, and extend my very best wishes to you for a wonderful present day there in your lovely town. Keep playing your guitars!!!
Please keep making great video for so many to enjoy. We really do need them now!!!
If you like the location, I wouldn't worry about the cleaning and fix up. The storage and privacy issues would need to be worked out, but this is one of the better ones I've seen. I would miss my covered parking.
`I like the pink house more. You could ziptie screen material to those inside bars. Might not be 100% effective to stop all bugs but it would be better than no screens.
Great price for the location and size but it needs a decent fence and some screen windows. I would pass but you could always bring your own fridge and put your pilsners in the back yard.
You can put screening on wood frames and put the frame in front of the security bars Ned
Screens on the French windows are possible, you put them on with a hinge like a door. Then to open the windows you open the screen then open the windows and close the screen.
Very nice. Screens with the cut outs is the way to go. Good luck!
Ned can put magnetic screens on windows they work well they sell on Amazon they are under screen door
it is easy to get nets made on the windows in alminiun you just have to find someone who can make them and he will come out and look at it and measure it up I have it myself here in thailand where they are divided into 2 so a windows can be opened in our side
maybe on the French windows you can use Magic mesh,It’s like hands-free screen doors..Look it up if you never heard of it.. good luck guys🙏🏼
Nice house. Good luck finding the perfect home for you guys
For the French Window screens, a staple gun and screening material - problem solved. But that place needs work.
yes. there must a way to screen the window on the inside. Easy to make own wooden frames.
Great you found a house!! It looks pretty good! The french windows shouldn't be the reason why you do not take it... Yeah you can use the blinds that can be opened like a window. Nice garden, near to the city. Great. The price is ok, not superlow, but still way better then anything you could have gotten in the USA!
Get a little door bolted or welded on the steel frame where the handle is and attach a screen.
hi guys from the outside it looks pretty good
my suggestion for yr screens over those windows is to make the screens like windows so u can open and close them
Suggestion... put screens on the inside on hinges. Screens open inward and windows open outward. This looks like a good place for you two.
they make magnetic screens that open in the middle , you can cut to fit ,
You could put like a door screen on there so you could open and shut the windows i had a place like that and that is what they did it but its to small i think Ned no carport on there to you need to build one also you could put fence near the driveway to keep the dogs in you just want to be near the city there wait till a better one comes up as your wife says Ned get it cheaper like about $15 thousand p
Maybe attache screen to the security grate so you can open to open window
You don't know if the arecon works. Who pays for a new one if needed? How much is a water heater and how hard is it to install? I don't recall the driveway, but it is 5 am here in Delaware and I'm still working on my coffee.
We had retractable screens on our french doors at our old house.
Hey guys, google magnetic fly screens I used them with great results on the same sort of French windows.
@John Ansell...that is a great idea.
@@boat6868 You can also get screens in an aluminum frame which you then attach to the wall using velcro.
Or a combination of what these guys said. You can sew a material border with some magnets inside That will stick to the security bars or as previously mentioned use a Velcro said up. That way when not in use they can be taken off and rolled up and easily stored. That's what we do on boats.
Sliding screens ?
I'm near downtown, north side, and it does make a pleasant difference (I had been initially living in Daro).
It's difficult for some to conceptualize a place that's cluttered with items that won't be kept, and needing cleaning and painting. Seems like you look past those roadblocks though. I hate painting, but have somehow found myself attached to a brush and roller throughout my life. It's temporary and the benefits are lasting, so as long as you're good with it, it should be a non-issue, and something you could use when negotiating.
If you can solve the screen problem to your liking, everything else seems fine. I know you don't want to deal with dengue again. This is the Philippines, replete with dogs, cats and roosters, low water pressure, street noise and security concerns. You know what's acceptable and what's not. It's all about your own personal reality. Between the two of you, there shouldn't be too many surprises after making a decision. I would suggest you check the internet connection available - mine's a maximum of 10MB and reasonably reliable. From what I can determine, it seems that older downtown areas aren't being looked at for improvements any time soon. Pristine and modern would be nice, but there's a cost.
When I'm looking at houses, I take my temperature gun too. I brought it with me when I moved here after reading your suggestion in your manual. Thanks for that. We may even have the same model from what I saw.
It will be interesting to eventually see what you end up with. I imagine you have a new motivation to make whatever house you choose, a real home for your new family.
You are right in saying it will go fast, it’s a fixer upper but not ridicules. You know there aren’t many “MOVE IN CONDITION “ places for rent at reasonable prices. Question for you since you look at a lot of homes, and know a lot of people there, have you ever heard much about anyone finding bed bugs in the home or apartment they moved into?
Not a construction guy but the screens seem to be an easy fix. Install inside security grates with an access gate to open windows. As for everything else seems a bit sketchy with Aunts storage etc...good luck with your search! You should be able to negotiate a good deal with no tourism so owners who rented short term are looking & would jump at a long term deal for less!! Because who knows when things will open up again.
that ac unit in the first bedroom, you can see outside around it, no insulation, no protection from creepy crawlies, lol, fyi, that make shower seats you can buy and put in any shower, get one made from good metal like steel, not the cheap ones. looks like all the ac units you can see outside around them.
NO BREEZE NED WHEN YOU HAVE HOLLOW BLOCK WALLS SURROUNDING HOUSE...
Hi guys, I'm your new subscriber as I found your viideo before this on CZcams at around $500 House rental. I'm interested so much to find myself my only place preferably a house with only 2 bedroom when I permanently retire next year around June. Question: does this house you found near the beach? that's one of my preferred but not necessary.
You can probably attach the screen to the grills.
Hi I've been you're subscriber for sometime now.i ride a 2005 honda shadow 750 motorcycle...i live in Anchorage Alaska we get maybe one month and a half good days of riding and 85% of the year snow... so my question is...with this type of bike. that i ride here... and i decided to go back home to the Philippines. and live in the city... do you think its ok as far is safety.. that ok to get the same size and type of motorcycle can get back here ...in the Philippines....what do you think..
Seems like a busy and noisy road...
No screens would be a big no no for me but if screens and new inverters could be installed and the interior painted then it would be a decent place. The exterior just needs a cleanup, grass cut etc. Really decent location as well.
easy money on screens, not even a challenge， maybe less available in PH but you can order kits direct from CN
Any house you go to need paint go there few times . listen maybe there are other noise like traffic schools ... other hand first year the baby don’t mind where it sleep eat and poops
Ned i cant access your ebook. Is there another way?
They make screens with strong magnets that will close themselves
Or if he doesn't want you to use screws you could try blue but I don't know so you put the screen with a 2 inch by half inch you know Flatwood you put the screen like an inch under the wood and then either screw it in or there are some strong wood Blues I don't know if they have it there though but there is a way
Thank you for this very informative video. By the way, is that an Ibanez behind you?
Schecter
Not much for 370, and thanks for the show as always
Way inadequate roof venting. Adding more roof ventilation will keep house cooler.
FORGET IT NED!! It will be too hot. You said it. "YOU CAN NOT OPEN THE WINDOW!!!
Keep looking Ned!!
On Lazada, You can buy magnetic screens for doors and windows . the only thing about that house that i dont care for is the street noise.
Not bad. Big house. Big yard. In town.
I would be looking for ocean front, but that's me. Out of town and little traffic.
You could build for around 100k usd with a good plan. That is what it took us over a 9 month build. Your not going to find a place to rent worth a damn. We knew before we moved here and bought a 1000 sq m lot for 18k usd from an Aussie's filipina wife in 2011. Title was good to go, we checked that right off and had our title by 2012. We moved here in 2017 and had the 1890 sq ft 3 br 2 ba house up moved in by 2018 for about 80 k usd (thats 800 php per sq m ;Back then a dollar was worth 40 php). That is about 300 usd a month for 20 years. Very glad we did and very fortunate we got it done before all this crap about a bad flu.
There is another 1000 sq m lot adjacent (corners touching)to us closer to the Letoundra beach resort for sale. The asking price is , I heard, 60 K usd. I think you could get for 40 or less like 20 is as good as it could get. We are sitting over an aquifer so you can have a drilled well and pump and pressure tank with very good water supply. Bacong also has a line to this place so we have 2 water sources. There are other lots all around but these have nothing next to them, no noise. One important thing we have here is a good building team, carpenter and helpers also an architect with connections in the government office. It made all the difference in the world. They all live within walking distance and were very reliable working 6 and 7 days a week. We are 200 meters from Nat Rd south so it is easy to have material delivered. We even blessed the corner stones according to religious traditions.
I kept daily cost in a spread sheet to control spending but in truth we could not stop the project or it would never get done. Do now or die is the rule.
Kids change things in life. A solid base is needed. They like to "disassemble stuff". Over the coarse of raising children you need a home of you own. It needs to be bullet proof to stand up to what a kid can do.
Needs a lot of work or improvements plus needs a lot of scrubbing 🧽.Very scary house 🏡 19 forgotten house?from Sandiego California USA 🇺🇸
You take that all show up and get some w D40 for that front gate
Ready to move in 😊 but the 30 days vesa is not good enough
Where's the baby going to sleep? You would think some kind of pop in screens could be made. Removable so the glass windows could be opened or closed.
It has potential.
Tracks with sliding screens for those windows. I rent a new 3 bedroom townhouse for 8 bills, can't be beat. I run aircon almost 24/7 with this block house. My girlfriend just built a small wood house and what a difference in temperature esp. at night. No aircon needed! Block houses don't belong in the Philippines!
Do have any condos for showing too?
Ned. I have been reading alot about snakes that inhabit the islands. Mostly the spitting cobra. Kung cobras and a species of pit viper. Have you had any experiences with venous wild life?
Nice home
Lot of work and hard to maintain.
You need five bedrooms because you going to keep knocking that up!
Your mother would be proud of you. NOT
traffic noise audible from inside house?
Kind of a dump for me....
I like the house
Pahk the cahr ,,YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! Shout out from Lynn Ned.
NED its down grading for you yes it needs screens on the windows but it needs more then paint and you have a baby soon you need little more room man
Too many times I see in ex-pat areas real estate prices too high, the problem is foreigners keep paying these prices. I rent a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom totally renovated new everything and huge and massive garage which means everything to me I no longer want to leave my car outside . I have new inverted aircon in every room , all that for 15k a month, if I could post photos here I would show you
I can hear the street traffic. Will that noise be going on 24/7?
So it is up to the renter to do any repairs and paint? Not for me....
crappy place...(sorry forgive my french!)
Don't they make screens in The Philippines? Worth getting for that house. The price is nice.
Sliding screens
Whats your delivery date?
Looks like Detroit City in the US
Nice house, the wooden ceiling is beautiful. Looks like someone already mentioned this in the comments, but Amazon has several magnetic attachment screens that apparently work well on unusual widows (European style, wood, etc). Doesn't keep cats in but maybe you could weave some fine wire mesh through the security bars?
Then for the Doggers you can get like a cable Ingo from like the gate or the wall to the gate to maybe that that little tree that's up by the house and just run like a leash or chain around their collars the Doggers collars Jamaican run up and down the yard independent on the length of chain you would have course wanted a couple feet away from them bushes and stuff or at least a couple feet away from the wall I've done I've done that with my my pitbulls and Illinois because they would jump the fence they would jump the fence like it was nothing especially if there was a dog in heat somewhere in the neighborhood so I would just run you know like I don't know anything quarter inch you know like cable just you can get the coded cable but you can use the with the coated cable you could use like a leather leash but with the metal cable you would have to use you know a chain or something it'll keep the dog is in the yard and then not only does it do that when you have to go clean up the poop it gives them a certain section that they run that though poop it makes it easier on you
That's why I opted for having my own property rather than renting. No matter what they say, owing is way better than renting, even if renting is cheap in Philippines. In the end, you are on you own property and any improvements you do are yours and you are in full control. You can also make any changes you want. Of course, my main property is on a beach so I it's perhaps not for everyone but my other properties are in the city and I still think I'm better off owning them than renting. Perhaps it's something to think about - rather than putting your money in a hospital shares, maybe it's better to invest in a property that you can own outright and enjoy. Weil, it's what I do and I've been there way before you - 2010 :-)
Gratz
I don't understand the fountain lol
Not bad
If they open out put them on the inside
Take it.
If this is what you want I wish you well, if not I hope you find what your looking for soon
Take the deal ned close to town no barking dogs spacious front yard plus a spacious house.
Take it and I know you can do wonder.
I guess it would behoove the owner to slap on a fresh coat of paint and make the place a little more presentable to the potential tenant.
Can’t u find a “normal” house there?🤣 like a modern western style house? those grills bro. Feels like the projects.
Most are not like the USA and if you find something similar the price is much higher
Dieselman so true. However, i personally would rather pay more for a nice newer comfortable house than a cheap depressing one. But whatever toot Ned’s horn.😁 the barking dogs, burning
trash/leaves, kareoke, roosters and nosy neighbors, thats Philippine norm. Can’t run and hide ‘em.
Here in PH... yu need the security. Gates, doors, grilles... 'specially for a foreigner. If yu want nice things, yu need to protect them. Even the jalousie windows I've heard abt someone removing each one of them to slip inside n rob the place ... so yea....security is a must here
mark friedem i agree but but i am against grills. It makes your house ugly. Like a prison. I don’t have grills in my house but I do have a fence. Its a bonus to have good neighbors. I a big city, yes, you need them. My house is in Panglao, pretty quiet place. And if the thieves wants to steal stuff, then that’s their gamble :)
Exactly and they do exist here but for some reason he seems attracted to the low end depressing type homes! Not put a down just an observation. But everyone has different standards. And he gives a tour like it's the best thing since slice bread, I always find it amusing.
listen to all the traffic. if that doesn't bother you then ok. Me personally no dogs, especially no traffic. lots of traffic in the background of the video.
The price for the area might be good but the size is not there only the yard size is good rooms not so big I would pass
I suggest that you call your local Feng Shui Master to certify the structure has the proper Viking energy flow.
run forest run!! JUNK!...and GLOOOOMY... LOL
