loosehead 47 Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 Damn dude..the place is so damn ugly you'd have to knock down and rebuild. I think it would look ok with a paint job. The red columns are really ugly. Looks like there might be a roof patio with a nice view. 10 bathrooms ? surely that is a missprint. It's a lot of house for $150 000.

Hey, robert51...I hear a rumor that Kim Chu is building that house right up at top of the hill after coming from the guard house (not the really big one) looks to be a 4-5 bedroom house with the resemblence of American styled siding. Is that true, or is it another concotted notion from my cousins wife? Link to post Share on other sites

It's a lot of house for $150 000. i heard the upstairs is the master bedroom and he has like 3 bedrooms and each has its own bathroom which is cool but he has a really nice view way better then mine that is for sure. He spent close to 8 last year but has to get out of town pretty soon and go back to Korea Link to post Share on other sites

mistaeric 407 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 I guess this is what guys be talking about when they say why someone would build a $200,000.00 home in a 3rd world country,and then cant sell it fast enough or with a profit.Nice house though. Link to post Share on other sites

washingtonian88 137 Posted June 11, 2010 Share Posted June 11, 2010 This looks like a fantastic investment. Wish I had the money. That looks like a great investment for sure. But have to hang on to it for maybe at least 5 yrs or so. I would buyt it if I had the money. As soon as you buy and maybe do some fixing, put it right away in the market and let it stay there for some years until someone pays your asking price. I wonder what is the future of real estate in the Philippines (particularly Cebu), lots of new houses - low cost and high end, condos etc. They are everywhere, lots of hopeful developers and investors. They are selling but seem like right about 6-8 months into it, they are looking to have it 'assumed'. I see this most often on houses with tiny tots 40sqm-80sqm, you could hardly breath. They are very overpriced even when it is supposed to be a 'rush sale'. How's my Filipino real estate terms? LOL Lots of really nice houses that are good deals also (usually a few yrs old-older subdivisions, this is where you find the good sized lots) needs a little fixing but the problem is they want cash upfront Well, I guess this means I have to make sure I got the whole chunk of cash to get the best deal. Pretty understandable. I wonder if the hardcore pros see the same thing as I do.... :lee_popcorn: It's just my observation and just my personal observation. All the the people I talked to that are trying to sell me real estates, all say very starry starry things how they're all great investment, this and that. Link to post Share on other sites
