    I live in San Quintin, Pangasinan. I live in a 2-bedroom one bath house. I have an indoor kitchen and a dirty kitchen. I also have a dining room and a living room. I have a large, covered porch and another 4 meters by 8 meters covered living area outside. I have pressurized running water as well. The lot size is just over 1000 Sq Meters. All this for 5000 pesos per month.

    Very nice, you have made a lot of upgrades. I'm interested in anything that's solar. I'm paying 7k where I live for an upstairs 2nd floor place. No Aircon yet but working on buying one. It's very quiet where I live, and three blocks from the beach in Marinduque. The only down side is the power outages here and there's no fast food chains or SM.

    I'm thinking about one of those for myself soon. Full time retirement is a couple years yet, but having my own space there ready for vacation trips and later full time. At those prices I could setup a place to be ready.

  • @KingRat71

    Steve, those may not be worms. They may be mosquito larvae if your water tank top is open or has a crack, or if your local water source is open.

    Looks really good, amazing what you can do with limited space and for $80USD a month a bargain, also a very good example of spending your own money to fix it up to how you want it, I know Dasma area but not where you are and its quite a nice place to reside overall, good stuff, the finished product will be really good to see.

    Steve rent that one on the other side of the wall there the other apartment not 2/3 of the wall out make it a living area living room TV can I give you more room it'll look great give you more room and for very little rent.. I put some wood paneling or a split bamboo on some of the walls makes it look bigger and you won't have to worry about looking at the walls when they start the fade or get mildew?? That's a female's input..

    I could live ther very easily and enjoy myself there. Nice place. Good price as well. My wife would not go for it though no place for her family, my reason for wanting small you can have privacy from the family, plus it would keep me getting to many posessions that I do not need.

    In Makati rents can be had for $2000 a month although its western style apartments and you're close to everything. No need for roosters, insects etc. Some even have a pool and patio.
