@@mistermcluvin2425 some body plz enlighten us here with this question? Nobody has explained why there are so many Filipinos in the pool? The pools at Cebu conds are suppose to be for residents. So, either they are getting much lower price, meaning whites pay more or they make alot more money than is said. As I understand it most of Filipinos make maybe $500 a month. The studios alone are about $300 a month leaving them with $200 a month for utilities & food.
@@MS-oz2wu lol, I didn't even notice that, I had to go back and watch the footage of the pool. I'm pretty sure a few of them live there then invite their family to come swim in the pool. I have seen cases where you could have 4 or more people squashed into a small 1 bedroom apt so maybe they all split that rent?
@@MS-oz2wuSome of the units are being rented and when 1 family rents one.. expect the relatives to come over and join in. That’s why there are lots of Filipinos in the pool. And Yes, as someone who is born and raised here. I did notice the condo units are overpriced. I’ve checked the listings here and they are disgustingly overpriced. Some say the real estate in Cebu is at par or even more expensive than in Manila
Good vid Mergim. I am looking for a place to retire in the Philippines. In fact I was there a couple weeks ago. One of the places I looked at is Mactan Newtown. In fact I stayed there a week at the Savoy Hotel. Great accommodations. I found Mactan to be a bit boring. I agree with you Mergim it will be about 5 to 10 years before it is fully developed. The other place I visited was BGC. I can only say is WOW. Many restaurants, bars and things to do. It is very modern and clean. I met you Mergim at the Mitsukoshi at the food court. You were very nice.
@Kurt Von....That depends on a person's goal in life. Mactan Newtown may be boring to you, a person who is a city boy. But for people who love nature, Mactan offers a ton of activities to get you up and running with many resorts offer all sorts of water activities such as parasailing, island hopping (Mactan Island group has over a dozen islets to explore), snorkeling/scuba diving (Mactan Island is the pioneer in the country's scuba diving industry with dozens of world-class dive sites), yacht cruising, among others. Besides, mainland Cebu is just 3 bridges away to access more bewildering array of activities from waterfalls hopping (Cebu has close to a thousand waterfalls), leisure driving by car or scooter/moped (Cebu Island is crisscrossed by a huge network of mountain roads), extensive white sand beaches, 9 world-class golf courses, adventure parks, theme parks, water parks, zoological/botanical gardens, aquarium, mountain resorts, hiking trails, biking trails, and access to dozens of scenic mountain peaks, etc.
Always remember to invest a property earlier than expected or the property is under construction, if you want good deals. Enjoy and stay safe always ☺️
Wow…Mergim said Lapu Lapu does bear a resemblance of Rambu 😊 I do wonder if Lapu Lapu really looks like that? Megaworld have so many developments/projects going on. There is also a 140 hectares Megaworld in Gen.Trias, Cavite. It’s CBD and residentials. The Philippines truly is a developing country.
Great vlog as usual Mergin fun fact Lapu lapu and Magellan integral part of the history of the Philippines, Ferdinand Magellan claim land in the Philippines for the king of Spain April 27 1512, The name Philippines comes from Philip II who was the king of Spain during the 16th century when the country became a Spanish colony. And Lapu-Lapu is the Philippine's first successful defender of our shores, keep it up stay safe and God bless 🤙
The condo units are very expensive now. I used to see 5M pesos condo units before and they already looked expensive then. The studio units costed 1M to 2M pesos only. Times have changed. Inflation keeps everything go higher and higher.
There's 2 prices in PI 1 for filipinos & 1 Foreigner's. I don't believe inflation is the real case although it's part of it. I believe it's foreigners are getting gaffed. If you don't believe that I got a bridge for sale...... Every white guy knows you send the filipina to the store.
I don't believe it. There are to prices the way I see it. Unless it's proven otherwise by having a Filipino goes in with undercover cam & a foreigner going in with cam too. It's human nature & Filipino nature as we can tell foreigners go to by food. I say bloggers must prove it before they Pitch property. Spending doing this would be much better than walking around PI with the Faces in the camera all the time.😊😅.
These condos are way overpriced it would take a local registered nurse over 300 years of wages to be able to afford one. Most high paid professionals like Engineers are lucky if they make 50k pesos a month. for those guys it would take 200 years of wages. only an idiot would pay over 1-2 million pesos. Better to rent in the phillipines. If you ever plan on reselling this back to someone else you will never get your money back.
With much appreciation to you, Mergim, for showing Mactan: its history, growth, people, food and beaches. I wish for continued progress in all towns and cities in the Philippines. 😊
While you're in Cebu you might wanna check out Cebu Safari. Only a few people have covered the zoo. Or other areas in development in mactan as well in Punta Engaño road.
So much for the Philippines being cheap... wow crazy expensive! Thanks for the vid, I had been doing some research and saw similar prices but hadn't seen what the units were to actually walk through
Lived in Cebu in the 70s. Mactan has beautiful beaches but distinctly remember the proliferation of what they call horse flies or carabao flies at the time. They have the most painful stings. Wonder if they are still in the area?
Cebu is pretty much a developed country now. But I don't like living there anymore because everywhere it's noisy with bustling people and streets. Also, the traffic is nightmare.
I spent 2 months here. Did not see a Beach. They said you could walk a couple of miles. ( which I am not doing through a crappy neighborhood) I looked at several condo units. They were all OLD and Smelly. The location is nice. But BORING. nothing to do.
Total price of those units sounds like a good deal! What is the monthly payment? WiFi, cable and water are included? Are the amenities included? What about the average electric bill per month?
I'm looking for an apartment in Cebu, lots of great places - the only thing thats really embarrassing is how behind everyone is on digital payments. Nobody uses bitcoin, paypal, or credit cards - just cash and checks like it's 1995.
Be careful with these types of new buildings they are making, it is happening throughout the world, a real estate boom full of rushed houses and apartment buildings. If you look at 6:20 you can already see a huge crack on the wall on the side of the window.
I really want to digital Nomad into web development or anything that can create a source of Income, especially on top of my Military Disability. I just want to Have the peace of mind
AH MERGIM THANK YOU! YES, AHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA! THE STATUE OF LAPU LAPU IS GLORIOUSLY RIPPED & AWESOME, AN ORIGINAL SUPERMAN! HE DID NOT LIKE THE IDEA OF "FOREIGN INVADERS" & HE REPELLED THEM TO GET OFF THE TERRITORY! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA! AH WELL.... I SAY DIVINE WILL. ITS MINDBOGGLING & AWESOME INDEED. LOOKING BACK, ITS AN AMAZING HISTORICAL EVENT TO THINK OF, & CEBU CITY, WHERE MY GRANDFATHER (ON MY DAD'S SIDE OF THE FAMILY) COMES FROM, CEBU BECAME A PREMIER CITY OF THE SOUTH, THE SPANISH CONQUISTADORS SETTLED & SPAIN'S GOVERNANCE OF THE FAR AWAY ARCHIPELAGO THEY NAMED AFTER THE KING OF SPAIN WAS ESTABLISHED IN CEBU. MANILA WAS DEALT WITH LATER ON. AH! THAT MAGELLAN'S SHRINE HAS NOW BEEN SHIFTED IN FOCUS TO LAPU LAPU! WELL & GOOD! OF COURSE FOR THE WESTERN POWER, MAGELLAN DESERVED THE SPOTLIGHT AS HE LOST HIS LIFE IN HONOR OF BRINGING SPAIN TO THE ISLANDS! SPAIN WAS THE "SUPERPOWER" OF THOSE BYGONE CENTURIES YAKNOW AHAHAHAHAHAA! THANKS SO MUCH FOR THIS, I ENJOYED YOUR TOUR OF MACTAN & THAT BRIDGE IS FANTASTIC! I ALSO LIKE YOUR PICK OF THAT MANCHESTER EXECUTIVE CONDO 40 SQM UNIT WITH THE VIEW OF THE POOL, AH! LOVIT! GEEZ IF I HAD 10M I'D BUY IT AHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA! GOD BLESS YOU & TCARE! ENJOY!
As a Filipino, I honor and respect Lapu-Lapu, but I cannot also ignore the achievements that Magellan and his crew did. They were the first to circumnavigate the world, therefore proving once and for all that the Earth was round. Magellan was not famous internationally because he went to the Philippines, he was famous for circumnavigating the world. (Well his crew can take the credit because he was killed midway).
I had to chuckle at the pretentious name of the place, Manchester Place. I think even Merghim chuckled and for the broker to not understand Merghim's question if the tower was Spanish or British-inspired is no fault of the broker but the developer. So any reason why they can't give a Cebuano name for these residential towers?
That's also what I was thinking. Megaworld like to use European sounding names. Why not use a local name? A local name with a very good quality building will even give a better impression of local places. Take BGC for instance which is located in Taguig City. Taguig used to be associated with poverty. Taguig was regarded as the poor neighbor of Makati then. But now, Taguig is viewed at the same level as Makati just because of the rise of BGC.
213,000 is very expensive in tn a 2 bedroom is 50k less you aren't doing your self any favors there I stopped after the 1st room didn't need to go any further
I would say condos are in the Philippines are too expensive compared to Malaysia and Thailand. The prices are almost similar to Singapore but with better location and amenities.
So you're saying that Cebu doesn't have better location and amenities? I've been to Singapore and I say the place is too claustrophobic and the place isn't even that clean.
@@iananthonywangan8371 Metro Cebu is filthy, traffic, and polluted. You must be talking about the HDB units in Singapore? Lol Private developers around Marina Bay, Tanjong Pagar, Dhoby Ghaut, are worlds apart compared to Cebu or even the ones in BGC. Philippine properties are downright overpriced.
@@iananthonywangan8371 i just been to Cebu last February and March and the awful traffic in mandaue was still the name. If you wanna go to 5 star hotels in Mactan, you'll pass thru the roads of illegal settlers/poor neighborhood. The only time Cebu can compete with Singapore is the exorbitant property prices. Lol
Oh my God.. The condos very expensiiiiiiive..in that little town.. 10M pesos more or less $200 thousand dollars.. 😮... The only nice thing is close to the beach....oh inflation.. How can a pinoy afford to live in condos..
Lapu lapu is the first leader of a community who fought against the Spaniard is not actually Filipino but he is originally from North Borneo. He became the leader of Mactan after Rajah Humabon granted the said area to him. Years later, both Lapu lapu and Rajah Humabon turned into bitter rivals when Lapu lapu turned to piracy.
10m pesos is about $176,000 USD so 12m is about $200,000. So of Las Vegas 100 miles you can get a brand new house with a 2 car garage on a lot for around $250,000. These condo prices are outrageous.
Lapu Lapu and Rambu Rambu . . . 😂 I thought there was a statue of Ferdinand Magellan right next to Lapu Lapu… Or am I thinking of another monument… (?)
Only wealthy Filipinos or foreigners can afford live there. 150K USD for such a small place. Even Nurses only make 30K pesos a month. This would take them over 300 years to be able to pay for such a thing. The condos are way overpriced.
You could probably also rent a better unit at $1,500/month and not worry about being tied down - freedom to move to from place to place, just like what Mergim does.
@@El_.5794 That makes sense. If I'm always out exploring places, I'd go for a place much less than $1.5k. If I spend most of my time with a partner at home, I'd go for a bigger place. In any case yours may be the better option, if convenient.
I get $3,737.00/mo Id love to live in fillipines indefinately, but internet says I can only visit for 30 days. How are Americans living there for months? Please tell me. I'm 44.
Was just there last month , love the Philippines 🇵🇭 so much! Going there again in September 2023 🙏🏻🥰
The perks of living in Cebu, you work, and you stay/live in a condo with a beautiful beach just around a few meters.
12M pesos is outrageous especially with no balcony. 10m is $176,000 USD.
Yes, I just watched this video and thot the same thing. I noticed in PI that the rental numbers do not seem to match the for sale prices?
