LOOKING FOR OUR DREAM LAND IN THE PHILIPPINES | ISLAND LIFE

#lifeinthephilippines #foreignerinthephilippines #foreignerandfilipina
Today we're going to try our luck again in finding our dream property. Now that we have a motorcycle, it's easier for us to go on long trips. To places we haven't been to yet.
The first place we look at is this lot along with the house. There are several fruit trees in the backyard: rambutan, mango and coconuts. And there is a small creek behind the property.
This plot is being sold together with farm land that is located elsewhere.
You can see this plot better from above. It appears to be a mountainside and there is not even a small flat piece of land. There is a small village nearby. And on the other side of the road are rice paddies.
This lot is not exactly what we are looking for.
The realtors offered to show us a second option. They said that it was closer to the city and that there were a lot of fruit trees planted there.
There are lots of durians, coconuts, and mangosteens growing there. There is a well, and a small wooden house. This plot is good for a fruit farm, but not for building a house. Schools and market and other needed facilities are far away from this plot.
We told the realtors that we would think about it and went to the next plot. This land was only a few kilometers away from the house we are renting. This lot is the best lot we looked at today. It is relatively flat and has lots of fruit trees growing on it. We liked everything about it, and told the owner's daughter, who was also here, that we would come tomorrow, check the documents, and sign the purchase agreement
