Mandrake Posted October 27, 2006 Share Posted October 27, 2006 For expats, condo-living is practical...esp. if the unit is under time-sharing. Quote Link to comment
rockybrawler Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 (edited) Condo wins hands down. Safety, peace of mind is paramount priority for me.I'm not willing to sacrifice safety just to save a few pesos.Ther is no such thing as peace and order here now because of the worsening drug problems.

sweet vixen Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 I find no sense of secuirty in buying a condo unit. A building that you cannot truly own. I'd prefer a house and lot anytime where I can establish a family, plant a seed and watch them grow to fruit bearing trees that my grandchildren, and great grandchildren can savor in their lifetime.

misterbig7 Posted November 12, 2006 Share Posted November 12, 2006 if you're single then a condo is great but if you already have a family a house with a garden (and even a pool) is better so the kids have space to play securely and privately.. this is from my own experience as a realtor but it would also depend on my client's personal preferences...some have both, a condo in the city and a house in the suburbs or beach. buti pa sila..maybe soon Quote Link to comment
RPinay Posted November 14, 2006 Share Posted November 14, 2006 I already experienced living in a condo unit as well as in a regular house and lot. Mas prefer ko yung house and lot for the privacy. :mtc: Quote Link to comment

missmanners Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 i like condo living. it's simple, low-maintenance and secure. maintaining a house is so expensive... not to mention the staff of helpers you need on hand to do daily house chores. condos are so easy to maintain and there's always the building admin or association to run to when you need simple things fixed like electrical or plumbing problems. not to mention the battallion of security guards that are there to ensure that the building remains safe. yes there are hassles to condo living (like rules on pet ownership or even cooking) but i think they're all a small price to pay for the ease of life you get in return.

hilars888 Posted November 15, 2006 Share Posted November 15, 2006 House and lot.....It stays within the family for generations to come.....As for condos, lease is much better than owning one, IMHO.... Quote Link to comment
Waterbearer Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 Ive never been a fan of condos....Long-term kasi ang approach ko like....how the land value appreciates....tapos yung mga improvements na pwede mong gawin sa property mo.....not to mention a real community to immerse with...... Sa condos kasi anlaki laki ng cashout mo....andami daming restrictions....parang lumalabas di mo pagaari yung place....anliit pa ng place.....walang room for improvement.....atsaka parang boring ang buhay sa condos....ang hirap makipagbonding sa mga kapit-unit mo..... Sa presyong 3M na babayaran mo para sa isang maliit na condo unit.....pwede ka ng makabili ng matinong bahay sa Better Living nyan e.....may garden ka na.....pwede ka pang maglagay ng swimming pool at kung anu-ano pa.

man-in-toy Posted November 16, 2006 Share Posted November 16, 2006 house and lot too. Waterbearer said it all. But of course, if you have extra $$$, buy one condo unit near your workplace/school. You can either have it rented out, or use it as your 2nd house. Quote Link to comment

vkgp0218 Posted December 4, 2006 Share Posted December 4, 2006 Condo. I enjoy city living plus pag pinagusapan ang accessibility issues e pasok talaga condo...di din naman ako homeboy kasi... Quote Link to comment
MiG-29C Posted December 5, 2006 Share Posted December 5, 2006 I enjoy city living but I prefer having a house and lot. First, I don't like having chismosas and inggiteros for neighbors. Privacy is important to me. Second, I want my house done and designed just like the way I like it. No space restrictions and structural limitations. I want a house with a nice lawn with landscape and all. Clean and green. And lastly, I wanna have a garage or a basement with my own indoor firing range - a place where I could work and thinker with stuff without bugging the neighbors. Afterall, if you live in a not-so-nice or safe neighborhood, you could always build your fence sky-high. The house doesn't have to be that big, just comfy and spacious enough to cram all the appliances and furnishings. Simple on the outside pero pag pasok, hanep at high tech sa gamit. Plasma TV, a kickass stereo component etc and the kitchen kumpleto sa gamit. There's no way you can do that in a condo. Hehe! Quote Link to comment
