The fact that it includes the lot makes it a Good Investment. Its Your Home and You Help design it and thats all you need to care about. Next can you give a House Tour ?
I have no house ☹ but I helped a family with two kids who has temporary shelter but no roof. When it rains, the two kids always get wet and sick most of the time. I bought them roofs, cost a lot BUT I WAS HAPPY. I KNEW THOSE KIDS WILL BE SLEEPING LIKE A LOG TONIGHT.
Still cheap, for a nice house. Well done guys. I’ve built many houses, it’s so stressful. I’ll build one day in the Philippines and I’m gonna take the pressure off with turnkey a solution. 🙏
thank you for sharing this. I'm in my late 20's and saving up for my house. my goal is before my 35th birthday, god willing maybe I could have my own house too as beautiful as yours. glad you made these videos and I also watched the time-lapsed too pretty amazing. will keep grinding and work hard to achieve this before 35. thanks! godbless!
We built a house, just a simple rancher type, 3 bedrooms 2 bath using local builders, for a little over two million pesos. the 2000 sqm lot was inherited from my wife's father. Like you said every situation will be different, depending on where you build, and your lifestyle and budget.
Congrats on the house and baby boy shipmates🤗 im retired navy also and wife is from cebu we are planning to build in a few years already have the lot so that helps. Thanks for sharing the cost of the build and all it really gives people a idea of everything. People are building homes and selling them on the market for triple price from the looks of prices (crazy) well you all will be busy with the baby and all so takecare and god bless!
I appreciate you sharing this with your subscribers, I am building at the moment, just got the permits, plan to start next month, and this gave me some perspective, thanks.
Thanks very much for this and for filming your build. I have family in Leyte and plan on building a retirement home close to Ormoc in a few years. I cant tell you how much money you guys have saved me with all this education on building a home in the Philippines but its well into the tens of thousands. A great example of how important it is to be on site daily to monitor progress. Probably the biggest lesson i learned was patience and tolerance needs to be in abundance. Thanks very much Congrats on you beautiful home !!!
First I want to say that your home is very beautiful. Thank you both for allowing us to join you on this journey of seeing your house being built. This is great information for those of us that someday hope to build our own home there. I truly appreciate you sharing this with us. Until the next video, take care
HELLO SIR, I HAVE BEEN WATCHING SO MANY VIDEOS ABOUT CRPTO AND FOREX TRADE INVESTMENT BUT YET I'M STILL MAKING LOSSES TRADING ON MY OWN, PLEASE CAN YOU GIVE ME A GOOD STRATEGY OR AT LEAST ADVICE ON HOW TO MAKE GOOD PROFIT THROUGH INVESTING
Trading with an expert is the best strategy for newbies and busy investors who have little or no time to monitor trade.. I will advice you not to stop trading on your own it's very risky. Seek advice of a professional trader
Actually you came out pretty good. We will be building our second home in Santa Rosa, Laguna in about 5 years. Like you we purchased our lot a few years back 352 square meters and now that same lot is doubled. Good job to the two of you. Enjoyed watching your build.
Wow! That is an excellent price for a home that nice. I thought that would cost at least $200K or more to build a home that nice. Thank you for sharing!
its good you're sharing all the detailed costs with your viewers, I hope that My PI Dream James can do the same with his long vlogs that have no costing at all...what a shame...
Extremely helpful Vlogs on your build. Asawa and I also watched PI Dream James build his home and wish he had included cost information. Beautiful home you have, accompanied with priceless information. We are in Manila quarantine now, heading to Negros next week for our own build in Bacolod. From your own Vlog and some others, I've learned it cannot be stressed enough.....research, research, research. and patience, patience, patience.
My husband and I are planning to retire in the Philippines! Hopefully this year. We build our house already but it’s not fully finished yet. Watching your vlogs make me feel excited and inspired to be back in the motherland!🙂
Thank you for breaking down all the cost to have a wonderful house like yours. Now we have idea what to expect when our turn to do it. Awesome blog and congratulations to your new house and up coming baby boy.
I sincerely appreciate the vlogs, I know they require a bit of work. Your information is priceless, I will be in the very same situation both of you were in, new to home building in the PI. Your home is truly beautiful. One thing I will do is to ship all of my electrical items, that is, fans, switches, CCTV cams, etc. Wishing you and yours an adventure and pleasurable retirement in the PI.
THAT IS SOOOOOOOO AWESOME!!!! Thank you very much for sharing your break down and the journey. All your time and effort is greatly appreciated on this end. Is there anything you both think you would have done differently? Once again, I want to say THANK YOU! It was truly helpful for some of us that want to someday be where you both are... "Retired and Happy." God Bless you Both and Congrats on the your New Home and New Addition to your Family.
Wow *Retired and Happy in Philippines* . I know you guys went over your budget but to build a house like that size and that modern style is really affordable compared to the states. There is a house here in San Jose, California that had a fire and badly damaged as a result still sold for $ 990,000. Its crazy. The average home price is $ 345K in the US as of May 2021. Enjoy your home its really nice and way better than anything you could get in the states for that price.
thanks for a great video. I was in the Philippines for a year but had left last August so my daughters could go to face to face school here in Georgia. I had started a new home and had it under roof but left for the school year will be going back this summer now that covid restrictions are reduced. looking forward to finishing up the home, got a lot of ideas from your channel. keep up the good work.
Nice! I will send this to my husband to watch hopefully this will make him move to the Philippines. Hahaha. We have a land and hopefully build the house soon. Good luck
Same as me. Me and my fiancé have property in the Philippines. Hopefully the Philippines will open up again and I’ll go there and get married and start building our house and living there
Congratulations! Well that's cheap or affordable considering it's all modern and made of CONCRETE. Houses in America are pricey and just made of wood not to mention that most of them are very old.
True. Now with hot housing market the average price or a basic house that is old and that needs work cost $ 345,000. $ 110K for a house like they built is a super steal.
Good finishing touch. Who design your house? Did you provide any civil engineer, the architecture, concrete engineer, foundation engineer, foreman, the supervisor, the contractor? How many people do you provide dealing with your construction? How much the total cost of your property that you spend?
That's great thanks for sharing that, been waiting for the cost break down of your house build. Was very interesting to follow your experiences. Gives me an idea of how much things cost there now.
Awesome!! Can’t wait to see a total walk through! Thank you for sharing the costs. I enjoy seeing the comparisons to other costs and even international costs. Now, can you break down the cost of delivering a baby in the Philippines!?
After watching your build I made some adjustment to my thinking of how we would do our build. mostly shopping around for contractor. We have our prints, permit,electric and water . We have just finished our lot fence which is 2 meters high and firewall partially. Lot size 480 square meter. They are back filling some fill dirt next to the fence and a low point in the lot. Our build of bungalow section of house will start in next 30days. Trying to time this build for our retirement date of 5/2022 and we can just move right in. Getting this done with everyday video from step son.
Thank you for the breakdown. Very interesting . Land I know is extra expensive I think. Considering the cost of labor and skill level I think contractors are also a bit expensive. Actually my biggest concern is quality of construction. Plumbing, electrical and masonry work that I’ve seen is often very substandard. Unfortunately the finish work often covers much of it so you never know until you have problems. I’m not saying your home has any issues and it sounds like you put some nice back up systems in which will be needed because of the brown outs. It’s great you can drink the water in your house. That’s a surprise. One of the best things about owning a home in the Philippines for me is the affordable property taxes. Nobody talks about that but it does ads up over the years. That’s what kills us in the states.
In the Philippines, once you own your land, it's practically yours for eternity. i have never ever heard of someone losing his land due to not paying real state tax.
So glad to see your home finished. It looks great!! My Wife and I completed our new home here in North Scottsdale AZ about a year ago.. We are planning on coming back to the P.I. soon, we are a BRP Uncharted Society Rental Dealer and we want to open a site there in P.I. doing off-road, on-road and Sea-DOO. We also are very excited to begin our compound construction there as well. Again, so glad to see your home done, it's beautiful!
Congratulation guys job well done no it’s time for a vacation and thank you very much for that experience I cannot wait to start make my own house there just waiting for that quarantine to be up hopefully by the end of this year so thank you very much for sharing this information 🙏🙏🙏🙏👊🏾👊🏾👊🏾🇵🇭🇵🇷🇵🇭🇵🇷🇵🇭🇵🇷👊🏾👊🏾
Thank you very much for sharing your magnificent experience with your transparency of constructing the house roughly it was 5M w/o the lot.....God bless us all always and keep us safe and healthy 🙏🙏🙏
Am I right rough estimate for the house only was 5M and how many sq ft or sq meter for your contractor cause I might start mine soon....❤️you guys God Bless Us all always 🙏🙏🙏
I am really happy the way you guys made thru your house. When I build mine, it will be standard, meaning all standard electrical and plumbing fixtures will be lay in place whether I will have the appliances. Over all done well, nice team work!
Finally is done,I hope you have a family altar hopefully you are a born again christhian,your home looking good and both of you are looking good,I follow your house vlog almost,I've never seen a image of idolatry God bless both of you
Phenomenal recap. Subscribed and followed day-by-day for so long. You have an incredibly beautiful place at a veeery attractive price. Building is going crazy in my area, SW Missouri, materials sky high, homes selling in 2 - 3 days, prices up 50%. Wife wants to finish her house in Manila, build rentals, so you have been a valuable resource. Thanks, and keep the vlogs coming.
We thought the cost of the build was very reasonable for all you have as it would have been a lot more here in Scotland. It is a lovely. House and I'm looking forward to seeing round it once you have it all in place 👌👌👍👍😘😘
You are correct lot prices are going up. We just bought a lot right outside Cebu City and it as 170sqm for 1.5 million pesos. Thats about 9000 sqm but its a bargain because lots are going for 10,000 to 12,000 or more there. We were lucky to find a lot owner that needed to sell asap.
Beautiful home! I have noticed security is part of every build by westerners and your house is no different. Obviously you would not have included it in the build if it were not needed, but is it needed and does it act more of a deterrent? I understand that might be a loaded question to answer! I am glad I did not see broken glass lining the top of the walls!
Congrats on your new built house. It looks great from the outide...very modern. Your wife has great tastes. Also, congrats on your new addition to the family. Can't wait for the walk thru. Stay safe.
Wow so nice house and beautiful! Thank you for sharing that info! It’s not too bad, compare the price here in the US! Enjoy your beautiful house and be safe always 🙏🏼
Watched from UK... I'm originally from the Philippines and been here for 20 years and been thinking thoroughly if I will move or not in the Philippines because I have to weigh the cost of everything like hospitalization and standard cost. I found hospitalization that you have to allocate a good budget when an events happenedoke heart attack or any major operation in the Philippines because its free here in the uk even bypass operation or any major operation. it's good to know how much it will cost the person when they will plan to move to the Philippines because it's a big decision to setup house and permanently live in the Philippines Thanks a lot for posting
Thank you! I was estimating your costs quite a bit higher. Your home is beautiful and I think you got a bargain. Exceptions, the fence/wall and property. Cost of properties differ greatly depending on where. I believe you when you say it’s much higher now, where you are. I guessed much lower on your fence/walls. Was the labor exceptionally high for some reason?
We bought beach property in Cabangan in 1986...beach property was extremely cheap back then. That said, it’s 9200 square meters. I’m shuddering over the fence cost now. We may have to stretch this part out. It’s all woven bamboo now. We start our build at the end of this year.
@@paulcarlobaes9802 the cause of being expensive for fence is the firewall that we did between our neighbor because the height of it is double of our fence..
Good morning ate and boss thanks again for your video 📹 👍 will be back some time this year 😀 and starts my new house 🏠 😀 will building the the house 🏠 my self 😀 wish me luck 😀 and how the dog 🐕 😀
Wow that's very reasonable compared here in Socal. I'm thinking about cashing out here and returning to the Philippines and maybe retiring in Bohol in a few years.
Hi Guys that is amazing me and my wife are living in Baguio city I understand about the price of lots going crazy you did a great job thanks for the break down
Very good as always. Nice to see you have a break down of the costs. Sometimes its not cheap to build a house, but when you build the house you want it is all worth it in the end. God bless you all. By the way we had our baby on the 20th of January. Baby Aiden Gunnar
You did great on that. I have built many homes and my advice to anyone that decides to do it is this - Expect it to take twice as long and cost twice as much. hehe So you did pretty good I would say. All those little things sure seem to add up.
@@eric95209 I'm guessing you haven't built any homes. 😉 My comment is geared toward first timers. Your first one is a learning experience. When you try to plan everything out you miss a lot because you don't know what you don't know. All the little things add up fast and most people tend to budget on the low side. Every small upgrade will get you.
@@BS_Mods I've owned a total of total 6 homes, 3 were built from ground up. So yes I have. There's no way a house build will cost double from original price.
@@eric95209 oh wow I apologize. I didn't realize you speak for ALL first time home builders. 🙄😂 My comment was not literal. You must be really fun at parties huh. Another vlogger just finished a first home in the Philippines and guess what it cost... exactly double. Its documented. So I guess that means you are wrong. But I'm assuming you will want to keep this argument going since you wanted to come in here and look like a big shot. You're just making yourself look like a troll at this point sport. ✌
@@BS_ModsI'm very fun at parties. Sorry for taking your comments literally, I thought you were serious especially after you replied to my comment with "I guess you haven't built a home". In any case, you should read my first comment again, word for word. Maybe you'll have a better understanding of what I was saying.
So happy to see you two and all is well. Can’t wait for the actual house tour. Great job financially, not bad for all you did.

The fact that it includes the lot makes it a Good Investment. Its Your Home and You Help design it and thats all you need to care about. Next can you give a House Tour ?
yes house tour please.
I have no house ☹ but I helped a family with two kids who has temporary shelter but no roof. When it rains, the two kids always get wet and sick most of the time.
I bought them roofs, cost a lot BUT I WAS HAPPY. I KNEW THOSE KIDS WILL BE SLEEPING LIKE A LOG TONIGHT.
Bless your heart and more. That’s the truth of human care. Thank you for your kindness.
I paid for the build of a two storey wooden house for a homeless family. It cost about £800. Not much at all. I was very pleased.
My wife and I are planning to build soon in Batangas City. Really appreciate the input to put things in prospective. Thanks so much for sharing
Still cheap, for a nice house. Well done guys. I’ve built many houses, it’s so stressful. I’ll build one day in the Philippines and I’m gonna take the pressure off with turnkey a solution. 🙏
True. Approx. 20k per sqm.
thank you for sharing this. I'm in my late 20's and saving up for my house. my goal is before my 35th birthday, god willing maybe I could have my own house too as beautiful as yours. glad you made these videos and I also watched the time-lapsed too pretty amazing. will keep grinding and work hard to achieve this before 35. thanks! godbless!

That cost is not bad for the size and look of the house. You did a good job on managing the cost to as low as possible.
Were excited
We built a house, just a simple rancher type, 3 bedrooms 2 bath using local builders, for a little over two million pesos. the 2000 sqm lot was inherited from my wife's father. Like you said every situation will be different, depending on where you build, and your lifestyle and budget.

That's true most people today have been having a lot of failure in Forex and crypto sector because of poor orientation and bad experts
I lost £23000 carelessly trading on a platform then I was referred to Mrs Elizabeth Audrey recovered the loss and made an extra profit of £46000
Wow I'm just shock you mentioned and recommended Expert Mrs Elizabeth I thought I'm the only trading with her
You don't need to be shock because I'm also a huge beneficiary of expert Mrs Elizabeth
My Asawa and I really enjoyed your built. And did learn what not to do when we built our house in Infanta quezon. 👍👍
Actually you came out pretty good. We will be building our second home in Santa Rosa, Laguna in about 5 years. Like you we purchased our lot a few years back 352 square meters and now that same lot is doubled. Good job to the two of you. Enjoyed watching your build.
Want to hear about the contractor performance...
enjoy your new build house. "live your life to the fullest with no regrets"
Wow! That is an excellent price for a home that nice.

Thank you very much for sharing your magnificent experience with your transparency of constructing the house roughly it was 5M w/o the lot.....God bless us all always and keep us safe and healthy 🙏🙏🙏
Am I right rough estimate for the house only was 5M and how many sq ft or sq meter for your contractor cause I might start mine soon....❤️you guys God Bless Us all always 🙏🙏🙏
Wow very expensive..but anyway as long the house looks very amazng
Cheers and thanks. My Wife and I recently purchased a beach front lot in Gitagum. We paid 600,000php for 200square
I am really happy the way you guys made thru your house. When I build mine, it will be standard, meaning all standard electrical and plumbing fixtures will be lay in place whether I will have the appliances. Over all done well, nice team work!
Finally is done,I hope you have a family altar hopefully you are a born again christhian,your home looking good and both of you are looking good,I follow your house vlog almost,I've never seen a image of idolatry God bless both of you

Great Video...this gives a clear idea about the Cost of Building a House and You Broke it Down perfectly
Thank you for the info. Could you please create a video on finding the right contractor. Are you happy with your contractor? Any challenges?
You are correct lot prices are going up. We just bought a lot right outside Cebu City and it as 170sqm for 1.5 million pesos. Thats about 9000 sqm but its a bargain because lots are going for 10,000 to 12,000 or more there. We were lucky to find a lot owner that needed to sell asap.

I am glad I did not see broken glass lining the top of the walls!
Because you get a contractor. Contractor's gets almost 30-40% of the total cost
Not with ours
Very interesting thanks for being so open and honest about it
Congrats on your new built house. It looks great from the outide...very modern. Your wife has great tastes. Also, congrats on your new addition to the family. Can't wait for the walk thru. Stay safe.
Wow so nice house and beautiful! Thank you for sharing that info! It’s not too bad, compare the price here in the US! Enjoy your beautiful house and be safe always 🙏🏼
Thank you for the breakdown. I’m looking to build after I retire from the US so this was very helpful.

Best house i seen..alot of cool features...Il sHare this video to my texas guy too...To give him an idea.Thanx great video.
Thank you both for sharing.. this is really helpful. 🙂
hi Navy man ret, i am happy, you are happy in our country. We need all US armed forces retired to settle here in the Phil lol
Well, overall you did the best job , beautiful house and contented happy famiky. Good luck
Now that is what you call impressive!! Good job!!!!
that's actually under my budget which is really good for me my budget is about $250.000
Thank you! I was estimating your costs quite a bit higher. Your home is beautiful and I think you got a bargain. Exceptions, the fence/wall and property. Cost of properties differ greatly depending on where. I believe you when you say it’s much higher now, where you are. I guessed much lower on your fence/walls. Was the labor exceptionally high for some reason?
Were in Lipa Batangas
We bought beach property in Cabangan in 1986...beach property was extremely cheap back then. That said, it’s 9200 square meters. I’m shuddering over the fence cost now. We may have to stretch this part out. It’s all woven bamboo now. We start our build at the end of this year.
I agree here. You got the permits significantly lower but the fencing were too high. It is almost the same having automated gate system.
@@paulcarlobaes9802 the cause of being expensive for fence is the firewall that we did between our neighbor because the height of it is double of our fence..
Good morning ate and boss thanks again for your video 📹 👍 will be back some time this year 😀 and starts my new house 🏠 😀 will building the the house 🏠 my self 😀 wish me luck 😀 and how the dog 🐕 😀
Goodluck
Absolutely beautiful home I’m looking to build my own place and I guess interesting seeing the price difference around the world.
Wow that's very reasonable compared here in Socal. I'm thinking about cashing out here and returning to the Philippines and maybe retiring in Bohol in a few years.
Hi Guys that is amazing me and my wife are living in Baguio city I understand about the price of lots going crazy you did a great job thanks for the break down
Very good as always. Nice to see you have a break down of the costs. Sometimes its not cheap to build a house, but when you build the house you want it is all worth it in the end. God bless you all.
By the way we had our baby on the 20th of January. Baby Aiden Gunnar
Congratulations
Congratulations very nice house, been good watching. I’m unsure if going to build or buy.
Thank yiu guys for sharing your cost. Take care and God bless you and your family 🙏🙏🙏
Congrats on the beautiful house.
Great sharing, thank you
Thank you for this video! Very detailed. Congratulations on the house!
congratulation! great detail of the cost for building a house in PH. What is the floor square meters of the house?
I got it 230 sq. meters. wish you the best and looking forward for more vids.
Was wondering what the square meter of your home was? It’s a beautiful home
230sqm
@@retiredandhappyinphilippin3329 Hi! you have lovely home. did you mean 230sqm for the floor area of the house? Thanks!
@@meldoong9405 yes its two storey house 230
You did great on that. I have built many homes and my advice to anyone that decides to do it is this - Expect it to take twice as long and cost twice as much. hehe So you did pretty good I would say. All those little things sure seem to add up.
Cost twice as much means it wasn't detail in the beginning or changed your mind during. It shouldn't cost twice as much IMO.
@@eric95209 I'm guessing you haven't built any homes. 😉 My comment is geared toward first timers. Your first one is a learning experience. When you try to plan everything out you miss a lot because you don't know what you don't know. All the little things add up fast and most people tend to budget on the low side. Every small upgrade will get you.
@@BS_Mods I've owned a total of total 6 homes, 3 were built from ground up. So yes I have. There's no way a house build will cost double from original price.
@@eric95209 oh wow I apologize. I didn't realize you speak for ALL
first time home builders. 🙄😂
My comment was not literal. You must be really fun at parties huh.
Another vlogger just finished a first home in the Philippines and guess what it cost... exactly double. Its documented. So I guess that means you are wrong. But I'm assuming you will want to keep this argument going since you wanted to come in here and look like a big shot. You're just making yourself look like a troll at this point sport. ✌
@@BS_ModsI'm very fun at parties. Sorry for taking your comments literally, I thought you were serious especially after you replied to my comment with "I guess you haven't built a home". In any case, you should read my first comment again, word for word. Maybe you'll have a better understanding of what I was saying.
Thanks for sharing all this information's. Very nice of you.
How about fire, earthquake and/or flood insurance?
Great job! Had a good time following you both.
