Properties look nice. Just remember that where there is ocean sand there also has been ocean in the past. Waterfront property is nice but the upkeep and maintenance is constant. The salty air will destroy electronics and appliances quickly. Everything metal will rust unless GOOD stainless steel is used. Personally, I would use the money on minivacations at great beaches and invest in business rental properties. Even at Sabin's you see constant crews working on upkeep. They are there daily. Don't let me be the Grinch to your dreams, though. I could be totally wrong. Good luck in your endeavors!
You are right my friend but what we plan takes all of that out. The building style and type would be more native and natural. Strong but suitable for the environment. Have a great day đ
Last time I checked for Bohol, the rule was 10 meters from high tide is where your property begins. The gov owns all beaches and in some areas they gov leases that imaginary boundary(foreshore lease) for things like bahay kudos. As always, higher a good lawyer and beware of new friends trying to sell you property. What I found was that people will try to inflate the square footage by claiming up to the water. As to the ten meter rule from high tide, some areas itâs more.
Itâs something to look into and really consider. Thank you my friend đ
Just be mindful of the elevation of the area. Because of sea water rise due to climate change many beaches in the Philippines and in the world for that matter, are going under water inch by inch every year. Iâve noticed it on our local beach as well. During high tide the (beach) sand is pretty much under water now and the water line in almost reaching the road. Something Iâve never seen when I was a child. Itâs not a good sign. Just do your homework please.
Thank you my friend. Absolutely correct and we will look into everything especially historically the height of the sea and how far inland it comes. God bless you đ
I also notice this phenomenon in our seashore ,certain area is submerged now in water.
The beach lot is really pretty†Glad to see both you & Jane well. Happy Easterđđ
Thank you my friend. Have a great Easter đ
Hopefully Jane's health will improve and she can see the right doctor. The second lot was big and would be perfect as a mixed use area with a business on the roadside and apartments behind.
Thank you my friend. Day by day she is generally improving but now and then still has severe issues. Hopefully the doctors can help. You are right about the lot as itâs perfect for mixed use. It used to be a garage business đ
Keep in mind the rising sea levels if purchasing a beach property plus make sure there are no squatters nearby as their sewerage just falls into the ocean. Best of luck, John in Bato, Leyte.
Thank you so much for your advice my friend. God bless you đ
Wow, the lot 2 is literally more expensive than many many lots in Europe. I guess you can build whatever you want there (2-3 houses), otherwise I don't see why to buy that.
The 3rd property is beautiful and has great potential and safety from beach tides/erosion đđ»đđ»
We agree my friend đ
My wife and I bought beachfront here in Negros Oriental quite a while ago. I am not sure how they are there where you are, but the Philippine DNR came and documented ALL the trees within 20 meters from the beach. You are not allowed to build concrete structures within the 20 meters of the beach. I will assume it is all the same throughout the Philippines. Just something you might wish to look into since that lot looks to be very short from the waters edge. Happy Easter
Happy Easter my friend. You are right⊠no concrete permanent structure but there are things you can build. We need to look into it fully. We wonât jump in without being aware of what we can and canât do. God bless you đ
@jeff c. With the greatest respect to Adam and Jane, my thoughts exactly. Plus, beware, of Americano prices.
@@daddybob6096 we agree and will be going to discuss with all the government officials Tuesday. It might be a case of itâs too risky but we will see. Thanks guys đ
correct... and above all...
a beach is always a public area.
you cannot remove fishing boats in front of your property
or you will create deadly enemies.
You must verify all the details with a lawyer you trust
Filipinos don't care about the law, but as a foreigner, you should be very careful.
The beach and the place looks so promisingly nice.good location nice beach and the price is cheap.good for business and investment.
There are all great prices and negotiable my friend. A good investment with the right research and planning. Have a great Easter đ
Great video once again...
Thank you so much my friend. Have a blessed day đ
That's great one blessed day
Thank you my friend. Have a blessed day đ
Hi Adam and Jane.
Hard to go wrong with beach property. To us UK and US expats it almost always looks like a good deal compared to what water front in our own countries go for. I would buy one ( or both ?) of the waterfront pieces, but then sit on it/them while you take time to research the future environmental factors as you are doing. And also the way the adjacent properties develop (or not). That way you you won't build a resort when wish you'd built a weekend rest retreat instead.
Best to both of you !
Thatâs great advice my friend. Something to consider. Have a great day đ
Might. Be ok for a weekend cottage but not full time living as you get thyphoons .
Be careful because the squatters will have ideas on squatting on your empty property.
Leyte is beautiful, but they get really bad storms there. I was at Tacloban after typhoon Haiyan and the city was devastated.
Itâs true my friend. Nature can be beautiful but also dangerous.
Option 1 looks like a good deal. Cant go wrong with beach property...
We will look at them again and more this week my friend đ
Wow, this is very nice water front property, option for a beach house. The only issue during storms. But this might be worthwhile.
We agree! God bless you my friend đ
I was looking at some rental properties in the Philippiines as investment. There seems to be a big demand for renting and it will continue as there is a big shortage of houses in the Philippines and ever increasing population.
But on the other side, US stocks will make you 9% annually on average and completely hassle free. And will not get destroyed or damaged by typhoon and no dealing with tenants who decide not to pay rent. I noticed, that rental properties usually sell for around 10 years of rent generated. IF you are lucky to have full occupancy for 10 years and no major repairs like from a typhoon. US stocks will double after 7 years.
By the way if you think about investments, than Filipino stock market is very cheap now after the pandemic and offers nice dividends. And they have some very interesting multiple centuries old companies. Few examples- Manila Water, water utility providing water for 6M people and with 5% dividend. Than there are some great banks, Puregold supermarket chain, of course Jollibee etc. Its the best time to buy stocks in Philippines in 15 years.
Nice post mate very interesting đ
I liked option 3 Guyâs. â€
We did too. All 3 have good and bad things but the 3rd is probably overall the best location for business or a house đ
The second lot looks great for a gas station with a store, the first lot would also have to be a business to get your money back and make more money.
Happy Easter Jane and Adam also your beaitiful daughter. Godbless.!
Happy Easter my friend. God bless you đ
We all need challenges to get us out of bed in the morning. This looks like a great one Adam!
We do and an investment property and project is something we have been interested in for a long time. Have a great day my friend đ
Lot 3 is my choice and make a solid Airbnb
Itâs perfect for a house for rental and occasional owner use my friend. The road access is there and beach very nice. Itâs a popular area and up and coming đ
Love lot number 3!
We do too my friend đ
I think lot #2 for me a good option coz both sides there is a fence. You can build apartment for rent or a resort
Lot#2 is nice for all businesses and for residential rather than the beach
Yes. Itâs really big and good location for a couple of businesses or a house and frontage business like a store, restaurant etc đ
That place was a typhoon prone,I think better think twice before you decide to purchase,storm surge perhaps.make sure it's a titled lot.and investigate first about the statue of said property.
God bless you my friend đ
I'll be moving to Philippines next year... I'd love to be able to join forces with someone not too old!
A great idea my friend đ
I personally will never buy a beach front property anywhere in the world even if itâs dirt cheap due to coastal erosion.
Thatâs a valid opinion my friend. We need to do complete research first but will find and show more examples. God bless you đ
Always send your wife first to see the property and ask the price. You have a special "Kano" price. Never let them know you are a foreigner. 6.5M for a lot in Leyte is expensive in my opinion. You can buy already built and fully rented boarding houses for 10M pesos.
Itâs not expensive for Leyte at all my friend. Especially anywhere near to Ormoc. Prices are rising fast and none of these prices are Kano. My wife obtained all details privately without me involved. God bless you đ
Setuju bro
that lot#2 you can develop into a hotel or air b&b with a restaurant and mini groceries
Very true my friend. It once operated as a business. Itâs a good location đ
Gotta have Palm Trees
Lot #1 is so close to the shore, the problem is if there's a big typhoon coming, all the structures will going to be built will be wiped out plus there is a 30meter shoreline easement rule. Lot#2 is good for business purposes like gasoline station, mini groceries etc but a bit expensive. Lot#3 is the best with a wide easement in a negotiable price .
We agree completely my friend đ
Be sure to ascertain the property boundaries based on the title and government records.
We will. Thank you my friend đ
Awesome đ
Thanks đ€ god bless you my friend đ
@@AdamandJanesLifestyle Happy Easter đ°
I suggest you buy the lot #2 to build commercial space for rent or house or room for rent
Itâs a great idea my friend. God bless you đ
Yong nasa highway maganda din magtayo ka ng stop mart sakaling lumago
Some beautiful plots there. We dream of building our perfect retirement home by the sea or by a mountain.
Thanks guys. Hopefully you will do it one day and there are some really beautiful lots here for sale âșïž
Nice for investment.
They are great my friend and we will do a lot of research đ
It's a good place to start a resto business or a place were u can unwind or hang out with friends and loves one enjoying the sea....âïžâïžâïžđ đ đ
Thatâs the idea my friend đ
Beachfront is cheaper in Leyte because everyone knows it is where the hurricanes enter the Philippines. So you buy it go all really secure concrete and secure roofing. Good luck Adam and Jane.
Thank you my friend. We donât get hurricanes here in the Philippines. They are very rare. Typhoons are more common. Most as of late enter towards Bicol, Mindanao and even Luzon. It seems they go anywhere in the Philippines now.
@@AdamandJanesLifestyle Adam my apologies I meant typhoons. They are very similar
Make sure the survey is done. We found makers have been moved when we brought the farm
Definitely my friend! We are seeing the owner Tuesday for a full discussion and will obtain surveys and advice to see what we might be able to do đ
I once was going to buy beach lot. But when typhoon hit .changed my mind . Now I have house back from the beach . .. be mindful.
Itâs always a danger with beach lots my friend đ
@AdamandJanesLifestyle yes but with global warming. see in 10 years
Wish you success in whatever you do. Good luck but exercise caution.
Yes, thank you my friend. God bless you đ
the singlet mate
Thank you guys wonderfull video i am looking for lot on highway in philippinness anywhere ideally i like to put gas station and food and beverage shop with it anything comes along pls keep in touch thanks again
I may be wrong but hasnât the government there brought in or will be doing , a law about how close you can build to the sea due to typhoons . Also any property on a main road may loose some of their land should the government expand the road . Just some points to remember . Lot 3 did look great đđ
You might be right my friend. Lot 1 is very appealing but maybe not great taking into account certain factors. Lot 2 the road has already been fully extended. Lot 3 definitely has potential đ
You are right
even if Filipinos don't care about laws, as a foreigner or if you are not a local
affiliated with the mayor and/or other politicians you can get in trouble.
Avoid skating on thin ice...
I know the video is old and the property most likely is sold. I'm trying to decide where to move to next summer, so just trying to collect some basic info. Question on Lot #2, would that have all of the utilities including Fiber Internet? What would the cost be to remove all of the buildings on site and prep for a new house?
lot #3 is much better than lot#1. but if u can buy lot #2 as well that's very good for business.... just saying đ
All 3 have good and bad but it depends on the purpose. We are going to look again and see some more lots. God bless you my friend đ
is the 3rd lot you looked at still available at this time?
Maayong buntag adam
Maayong buntag my good friend. Have a blessed Easter Sunday đ
Adam, Jane, is it legal in the Phillipines to own property right up to the waters edge? Here in Puerto Rico one cannot own property a certain distance from the high tide mark. All the "beaches" are public domain and access to the beach cannot be denied the citizens.
These are things we will look into my friend âșïž
Good afternoon Adam, I just saw your video and I enjoyed it very much. My name's Johnny and I am Korean. I was born in Korea however, I now live in the States. I was seriously thinking about moving to the Philippines. Have ever possibly considered going into partnership a real estate property someone? I would like to visit first and possibly consider in becoming an investor.
Good day my friend. Itâs a great idea and investing in property can be good. We arenât sure we would buy and sell land though as we would only buy a small future lot for our daughter or us. đ
It is govt prperty from the shorelin up to 200m is gov't.....you should apply it for foreshore lease at CENRO ALBUERA....or try check there if there is application of foreshore lease......lot #3 much better
Not 200m my friend but 30m. You can apply for a shoreline lease. We will check everything out fully đ
Try check at DENR CENRO ALBUERA if its 30 or 200m.....đhave a nice day ahead
You are too much! I am a citizen of this country and all I know is at least 30 meters easement from the shoreline during high tide especially in remote rural shoreline areas.đ
Houses by the beach is high maintenance because of the sea blast, be careful with your finances.
So you own land up to water line? Or so many feet from high tide? How does that work?
You own typically the lot but 30m away from the high tide level. Itâs complicated as the change in ocean levels could wipe out your lot. You can apply for a foreshore lease. Itâs something that needs a lot of research and guidance from the government groups here đ
The beach lot; how far is the sea water goes up during the storm???
Something we are looking into my friend. We will do complete research đ
Please do a due diligence first before buying any property. Check if the property is not yet sold or mortgaged. Ensure that it's titled with Torrens certificate of Title.
Thank you my friend. God bless you đ
hi friend we are also selling some of our land properties here in Kananga Leyte which is 1000 square meter for only 1500 per square meter and it's still negotiable
We will come take a look my friend đ
Location no.3 is nice but Merida is a lil far for us. I have a 500 square meter beautiful lot in Valencia, Ormoc City. It's like 12km away from the city and I wanted to sell coz husband wants other location but when I asked for prices around, I was kind of surprised! Ormoc is turning into first class city and prices of land is so high now that I cannot afford to buy another property.
Thatâs very true my friend. Prices are increasing fast here. Itâs good for investment đ
@@AdamandJanesLifestyle Hello Adam and Jane, would you guys be interested to feature my land for sale?
Don't by that my friend...there is a rule in the Philippines owning a shore.from the water when high tide 30meters from there you cannot build any projects because that's own by the government.i hope you understand my English carabao đđđ
Thatâs true but you obtain a foreshore lease. You can build certain things but not a permanent house as such. Certain structures are exempt and we need to look into everything fully đ
Looks great , put a couple of Kuboâs on it and sell burger and hotdogs in one and smoothies and fruit bowls in the other
Jane and Adam please inquire first the DENR( Dept of Environment & Nat.Resources) if you're allowed to use the Beach.
As far as i kmow you cant automatically owned the Beach itself tho your property is adjacent to it..
It must be applied first and be approved by the DENR...A friendlly advise: Be careful before you invest a big money.
â@@AdamandJanesLifestyle buy beyond 30m đ
@@muzanunciacion yes my friend. We will look at the lot again and more options. God bless you đ
The 3rd lot is better for a beach resort
It is and we will follow up on it my friend đ
Very nice Adam and Jane, but, after residing in the Philippines for several years i cannot help but think the prices you have been quoted are Americano prices? Happy Easter to you all. Bob n Lina.
Thanks Bob. Definitely not Americano prices my friend. Land has really increased quickly here. A lot by us is now 4,000 pesos per sqm. Have a great Easter family đ
Keep in mind that you need 20 meters set back from the shore high-water mark. I'm just curious as to how they were able to produce a Land Title for that property. Buyer beware!!!
Thank you my friend đ
Iâm wondering how much are the Taxes Yearly??
Those are all things we will look into my friend. We are at the start looking for potential lots and gathering research đ
Is this Beach front property still available? Hope to hear from you! Thank you for posting.
We think so my friend đ
Wow, guys! Soon you are going to be bigger land owners than the Larazabal! Joke lang! Enjoy your life in Ormoc!
Haha now we just need a Pineapple plantation⊠joke lang. looking forward to the next in your Ormoc series my friend. God bless you đ
#3 my lord!!!lol
Itâs not much to look at but once flattened and formed itâs a great location with huge potential đ
I would check out the building regs for building on the beach in ph you might fine you cannot build anymore
100% my friend. We will check everything fully before making a final decision đ
Iâll take it
They are just 3 examples and we will find and show more. All possibilities for different things đ
Hi Adam we are in the philippines at the moment thinking of travelling to somewhere new where would be good good to stay in leyte for a few 4 nights we are from the UK with my wife and 3 children to see what it's like there.
Hi my friend. Leyte has so much to offer but depends what you are looking for. If itâs a nice beach or 2 then Southern Leyte tends to be a bit nicer. If itâs malls and stuff then Tacloban or Ormoc as better. The Sabin Resort in Ormoc is probably the nicest here đ
Thanks Adam we are back in the UK now but we went to boracay in the end we had a great time we have been there a few times before we are going to come back to the philippines in 3/4 months to stay for approx a couple of years depending how things go not sure we're are base will be yet. Thanks again for the information đ
Try to check before buying.Philippines law .
đđđ
God bless you my friend. Have a blessed day đ
â€â€â€â€â€
God bless you my friend đ
You'll be CREATING JOBS for the locals and helping the local economy TAX WISE.
GO FOR IT. Just make sure you get a CLEAR idea IN PAPER about the law in owning a property by the beach. Where the governemt property ENDS and where your property STARTS.
GOOD LUCK
God bless you my friend đ
Iâm not an expert but doesnât Lete get hit with the severe typhoons?
Every part of the country can get hit my friend. We have been here over 2 years now and no regrets. Leyte like everywhere could get hit. To say only Leyte would be foolish if you check the flooding northern and southern Philippines over the last few years from Typhoons.
Iâll love to buy a 1000 meter to build a beachfront house , can I know the address to check location on google map, and price please.
Thanks
Gary
Sorry my friend but itâs sold. We will look at more lots soon though. God bless you đ
Very high prices per sqm compared to Sweden any way. Think about the competition from other resorts... maybe not so easy to attract people. Perhaps English people could come and spread their golden coins ofcourse đ
Regards Rickard from Sweden đžđȘ
Sweden must be very inexpensive my friend. In the UK land prices are 10 times higher than in the Philippines. It costs more to buy the land than build the house commonly. Sometimes business builds and there is competition but depending on the use required and the cost itâs not always a problem. Have a great day my friend đ
@@AdamandJanesLifestyle Yes indeed that little island is overpopulated ofcourse...(England) lol...
Caveat emptor
the space is so tight. the tide is goin up very fast every year...the lot is rectangular and once the tide take over. only a few meters is left. the best lot to buy is rectangular but the narrow side is facing the sea and tthe longest side is going inland....be wise. i think the owner sells this for his bad predictions....beach lot is good to a max of five to ten years. mostly those owners switch back inland and sell the [property....look for a rectangular lot going inwards......i remember my grandfathers property ,before the coastline to the coconut tree is around 500 meters away. i came back after 30 years since i based outside the philippines, i was shocked to see that the sealine touches the coconut trees....the sea is growing inwards. the property has been taken by nature.....be wise......
You might be right my friend but we are going back to check everything fully. We think itâs still a great investment however maybe over time itâs purpose would change. Itâs been used as a resort before and not used for 5 years. Prior it stood for 20+ years as a business đ
consider also during typhoons, the history of the place and the rise and fall of tides...especially if the property is facing an open seas.during typhoons the sea is rough and sometimes it reaches the national highway.big waves often push the tide inwards.sweeping all your hard earned investments....
@@tomskiesevs3754 very true my friend.
@@tomskiesevs3754 naah, you just bought a sh*tty beach land, you got played đ€Ł
Where exactly is that?
Itâs in Merida đ
how many Square meters is the beach,, how much?
The first is 1,098 and second 1,000 my friend. First 2,200 pesos per sqm and second 3,000 per sqm đ
@@AdamandJanesLifestyle oh thatâs nice đ hope we can visit your beach maybe someday,,
Can foreigners buy land and build to sell . in the philippines .
No. There are ways a foreigner could eventually own land but not buy land. You can buy with your Filipino spouse however âșïž
What is price in pounds?
It varies depending on the exchange rate my friend. Best to use google to get an up to date exact figure đ
can foreigners own beach front land in the Phillipines?
They can if one person is a Filipino or if bought through a business with Filipino shareholders. A foreigner can own a beach house but not the land itâs on.
More lot PLEASE.....
I like the #2 but it's too much. Hehehe sana myron maliit at mura.
Thank you for sharing.
We will see and show so many more my friend. God bless you đ
I will buy the three locations if i have moneyđ
We would too my friend đ
Please remember there is an ocean easement of somewhere 15 -30 mtrs from the sea line. You can never actually own the beach.
Thatâs true my friend. We will look into everything đ
Need to buy beach and land going back at least 2000 sq meters, it's gonna cost alot unless you find a desperate seller.
No, why would it need to go back 2,000 square meters? 20 meters is all it needs to be now and was previously 30 meters. Plenty of lots for sale here at reasonable prices my friend đ
Leyte is aways have typhone
From your experience? We have been here 3 years and there have been some with more going to other regions. Climate change can affect things.
Please consult with your municipality's zoning office & MENRO before you buy the land so you may know what projects you can & cannot develop there.
Thank you my friend. We will do. We will look into everything before making a final decision. Have a great Easter Sunday đ
Before you buy it try to us to local government
We will do my friend. God bless you đ
You can't buy land to build home in the Philippines unless you're related to the other half if you're a foreigner. I would have bought a beachside homesite if I could.
Thatâs not true my friend. A Filipino citizen can buy land and the foreigner can be named. They would only inherit the land if legally married and spouse was to unfortunately pass away without a will. The foreigner would own the land through inheritance. The other option is for a foreigner to establish a legitimate Filipino business and purchase through the business.
If you're a citizen yes. But purely foreigner no like you said if you buy through a business. What business us easy to start, sari sari store which could turn to sorry sorry store if you're customers purchase on credit and never paying you back? That's what I heard.
@@wrafl who would start a Sari-Sari store to buy property? đ€Ł think bigger business and a lot more investment. Itâs already happening all across the Philippines.
you can't buy land near the shore cause goverment rules need you to provide easement. you will just waste your money because gov't can confiscate that part anytime if they need it just like in boracay. last one is the best as long as there is a space for easement
You can apply for a shoreline lease my friend and can use the lot as a business but no permanent structures however there are exceptions of which can be built đ
Hi Adam.. Thanks for posting.. I'll be in Ormoc from mid June through 1st week of August.. Can you recommend a real estate agent? I am looking for 333+m to build a house on.. If you're up for a visit,, my gf and I would love that as well.. Take care..

Due to global warming the Philippines will lose a lot of land. If I now look at the beach here on Masbate Island and 32 years ago you can see that a lot of land is under water now. Building a protecting wall helps but will not build everywhere.
I personally don't like the beach and sand so much but my wife does and therefore we rented land in front of the sea many years ago and built a small beach house.
Thatâs good advice my friend and something we really are concerned about too. We need to do full research and planning. Itâs something we will keep looking for. Have a great day đ
You can buy a condo but thatâs it
No, thatâs not it at all. You can own a house in the Philippines if you are a foreigner but canât buy the land. You could eventually own the land though. Itâs complicated. We made a video about it recently.
Hi adam and Janelle
me i know the exact location of this beach. In Merida..Very nice location.. you have the contact number of the agent?
Hi, we donât have the number but can find it my friend. We are trying to contact the owner directly đ
Not a bargain, waste of time and money.. too small for ownership.. storm surges will destroy any investments
Lot #2 looks more promising
Build a elevated structure.. still research storm surges and climate change sea levels
The first maybe my friend but the next 2 are both great options. They are totally negotiable too. Youâd need an elevation to protect from storm surges đ
that's a scam......nobody can own land near rivers and beaches. there's a law that it has to be at least 25 meters away from the shoreline.
you can get a foreshore lease from the government if you want beachfront properties.
30 meters my friend but does vary and can be offset with a foreshore lease. You can own but not build a permanent structure closer than 30 meters from shoreline.
