Buying Tips for a Manila Condo
Turo:
Thank you codefreeze. That is solid advice. The two bedroom is the way we are going I think based upon spacial comfort. Some of the units we looked at, particularly in BGC and Makati were claustrophobic. I am looking forward to meeting people when we arrive so a broad expat community will be most welcome.

2 bedrooms in 55sqm, will indeed be claustrophobic. Personally I couldn't live in such a small unit full time. OK for short term, holidays etc, but I would go stir crazy if I had to live full time is such a small space. Just my personal opinion.

Interesting question Turo .. buying low to medium rise real estate in and around Manila ..
You've got some folk having a quick look at what's currently available again. This time mainly just on Craigslist, which of course, as you know, is like most of the Phils in being fairly disorganized :) However there are a number of perhaps somewhat interesting places for Manila currently available .. for example ..

Claustrophobic indeed David. I agree. 55 is a minimum, bigger, in this instance, would certainly be better.
Disorgannized is being generous in my experience Hank, but you play the hand you are dealt. Nice units you found. I will have to dig deeper. Those do hold some appeal.
