Surveying for a friend.
hmmm. sorry if this has been answered earlier...

pero ilang ang current and possible future cars ng family?

188sqm is ok if the family has 2 cars... 3rd car can be parked outside thanks to the wider streets.
480sqm (depending on the floor area of the house) can fit more cars.

reason I'm asking is that my in-laws live in a 150sq lot with 1 car port. they have 3 children
pero fast forward to 2023 (Christmas). each child arrived in 2 cars, tapos kami in 3... there was a total of 8 cars parked in free spaces sa subdivision just for lunch.

most of their family gatherings are held na lang sa mall para hindi issue ang parking.

tapat ng house nila also has 3 cars now and only 1 car port kaya just imagine how the street looks like kapag may occasion
