Thank you for the compliment Harry. But I don´t think I´m any magic. Tim is the real and true MAGIC man here. And I have to say, after spending one wonderful day with him, I am the very lucky guy who had the honor to talk for the day with him, never though that in person would exceed my expectations so much, such a honorable man, serious, professional, sometimes so funny and laughed so hard with him... and one of a kind guy. We talked about lots of things, we disagreed in some and it was such a pleasure to see his pov´s in so many aspects; certainly is a very wise man and I hope to see him again around soon. All the best.

Still a good deal for your Amigo . 8 years ago my ex Filipina fiancee could get the same for me 6000 pesos a month but I chose to stay in the hotel in Cebu 😊👍.

@@halfsquaredoubleinverse4014 you are a great man bro I can tell. Take care always.

@@halfsquaredoubleinverse4014 Only great guys are humble like you :) Your house looks nice. A subdivision with guard, so many rooms for that price in Cebu area - thats great! If you hear of such a bargain at your subdivision again, please let me know :)

@@i-am-your-conscience There is one for rent right now in my subdivision at 10000 pesos per month which is around 172 euros but it has only one bathroom instead of 2 like mine

i been in saigon and some houses in saigpn are bungalows, and or flat area with roof in it, i like saigon it is inexpensive but for amenities and stuffs i prefer philippines,

thanks Arnel. Lots of people use my videos for research on what it is like here :)

Try to see Liloan sir

@@TimKyoutube Can you make a video and tell us more about the contracts? Why are they for such short periods, like a year or two? Isn't it possible to get a contract for longer with the possibility of getting out with a notice?

@@Scythia1313 If you are buying you can always reach out to me. I don't get and don't want anything out of it but to be able to give you my experiences and you can take a look at my place and the price that i bought it at so you can compare other listings that you may be interested in.

away from traffic and noise, but you haven't see dumaguete vlogs, there is HOARDS AND HOARDS of scandinavians europeans , but i recommend iloilo

Because Cebu has great health care ( outside metro manila ) compared to other provinces in the Philippines.

I live in Yati Liloan. I felt safer than in the US, too. Maybe Filipinos have deep respect for harmless limping old man

We think the traffic in USA metro areas is bad, then we hear about taking an hour to go 2-3 blocks.

Its now abnormal here in the US ,if there are no mass shootings occurring .people have become immune and dont pay attention anymore to this crime . Unlike before ,we were glued to the TV for updates . Now ,its just another day in America !

Chris, I’m 69 and from the USA. I return once every year. Our home is being destroyed by the liberals. I don’t feel safe there at all. So sad!

Roy what part of Santo Domingo was it?

@@rgasta7765 San Cristóbal

In US its like 2k USD apartment right 😅. Here in Philippines $100 usd per month in province is already a decent apartment

@@RdozeTV 100$ with internet? how do you find them? only lamudi? thank you

It's not rare. Home rentals outside the quad-cities of Cebu City, Mandaue, Talisay and Lapu-Lapu are naturally cheaper. The farther you are from these 4 cities, the cheaper the rental gets, yet you're still in Cebu with access to everything you need for a comfortable living and lifestyle which every now and then.

You can find also in minglanilla cebu.. 9k two br 1bath with garage.,

Don't be pretentious or act better than your chosen community and you'll be a-ok. If you're an asset and a helpful member of your neighborhood then you'll be loved and welcomed.

It's pretty safe because he is in a gated community with security.

Lots of gun violence shooting here in major cities in America!

you need a fierce dog and baseball bat for home defense

It’s much safer here in PI than in the US. Retiring here is the plan

Survey Cebu is top 3 many foreign li ve here

$887 for 1 week??

Exactly

Don't know about the Philippines, but in some nations the only option available for a foreigner (besides AirBNB) is to pay in advance for the length of their lease.

A 2.5% discount is a discount. If there are more pros than cons why not take the discount. It's one less thing to worry about.

I was thinking the same. No incentive for landlord to repair anything.

@@gavjlewis many reasons why. What if the house burns down or something else happens that makes it unlivable? In this case it's not such a big deal since we're talking about such a small amount of money, but in general it's a bad idea. When leasing a car, I'd also never put money down for similar reasons

dude craig why would you need that, leyte so far is safe i think , do you have a partner there or something? just be cool with the locals be friendly and be aware, and you will be fine, this is not texas and guns here are not allowed only military and police can have them, don't be afraid this is not usa that mass shooting is happening , i lived for a long time in leyte and nothing happens .

That's true. The farther you get from the urban core of Metro Cebu area, the cheaper the rental gets. Yet, you're still in Cebu. Cebu has lots of rural towns which are quite beautiful, peaceful and cheap to live yet you're just a few minutes to few hours drive to the life's modern convenience in Cebu City. One needs not live on a remote province or island outside Cebu just to live on a budget. You don't need to sacrifice your life's cravings and personal tastes just to live the life you want by living in a place so remote devoid of many modern comforts. Cebu has lots of unspoilt natural attractions outside these 4 core cities like the lush scenic mountains with lots of blue waterfalls, cold springs, streams, rivers, white sandy beaches all over for you to enjoy in such a serene environment.

Bogo is too far from Cebu City. Better find a house inliloan, Danao,Compostela,Talisay.and in Minglanilla,Cebu

If he runs the AC 24/7 about $200 at the most depending on the current cost. I was in madaue in 2020 rona lock down....I paid between 125-150. This apartment is a steal....my only concern is security. Sometimes security is in on break ins....

Our electric is 10,000 peso monthly in the province.
