What is the average cost of housing in Philippines?
If you are thinking about moving to Philippines, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...
"Lower than Sydney by miles! Condos can be had for 20k/mo and up, all the way to 70k/mo if you are getting a good allowance or feeling rich. Furnished adds far more than the cost of buying stuff, so if you are staying more than a year consider going unfurnished," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Manila, Philippines.
"I live in Cagayan De Oro City, Gusa. I have a 4 bedroom 2.5 bath house that I can park 4 SUV's in the driveway. It is a gated and armed guarded complex. I pay 300 usd plus electricity and water. I buy cooking gas every 3 months," commented one expat who made the move to Philippines.
