Philippines RE Opportunity in 2024

First time poster and avid observer. I am a small time landlord with a few doors in the US. I am looking at expanding and finding it increasingly difficult to make the numbers work with leverage that is worth the effort this is considering i can let this grow at 5-8%+ in tbills, bonds, and hysa at minimal risk and higher cashflow. I am in a unique position having a spouse with dual-citizenship in the Philippines with solid liquidity. The cost of a cash purchase there is not far off from a down payment here for investment property 5-8M PHP will go far from what ive seen in researching different areas in land/house for sale groups. What are the largest opportunities and downsides to owning property in this country when buying cash? I have been before in a non investor capacity and see it being feasible with worst case you own a vacation home free and clear to rent on airbnb.

thought process of this being both an investment and for personal use/retirement many years down the line. Fully aware I can make more money leaving it in index funds with compounded interest.

*Areas of interest Cebu, Dumaguete, Siguijor, Siargao

Appreciate any insights in advance!

North Carolina – “One to Buy; Two to Sell”

I realize I will likely have to contact a real estate attorney but also hoping to hear insights and experiences from others! I have a house in NC that I bought by myself in 2009, and paid off, in full, in 2022. I got married in 2023. My spouse and I have not lived in the house as our "marital residence". We have maintained separate residences even after we got married. (That a separate topic!). I am now selling this house. Realtors have told us that my husband has to sign the deed at time of transfer but I am not convinced since the house has not been our marital residence. The realtors like to use the phrase "one to buy; two to sell", which seems like a broad-stroke statement which is not applicable under all circumstances. And of course, the realtors don’t realize the details of my specific circumstances: I purchased and paid for the house in full prior to marriage Only my name is on the deed And most importantly, we have never lived in the house as a marit...

Question With Tricon "Pending ID".....

My wife and i, along with 2 other peopl applied to rent a house, and our application says "Approved, Pending ID". Anyone else know what that means? Do we pretty much have the place or are we missing something? submitted by /u/Itskrueger [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1orixqj/question_with_tricon_pending_id/

Making offers on houses not listed for sale.

I want to buy a home for retirement. I am looking at lots of options, mostly focusing on the locations that appeal to me. I see lots of Zillow estimates of homes that look like great deals to me. Are these estimates accurate, even though similar houses in the same area that are for sale are usually priced much higher? If so, is it realistic for me to try to make offers to owners that do not have their homes listed? Would a realtor even consider helping me do this? Or, do these values indicate that the houses listed for sale are overpriced, and I should just lowball until someone accepts? Are houses today tending to sell far below list prices, or ??? submitted by /u/chewybrian [link] [comments] source https://www.reddit.com/r/RealEstate/comments/1o4mcon/making_offers_on_houses_not_listed_for_sale/
