alam mo kasi juts, pre-cursor na to isang malaking great depression then world war.

ganito ganito nangyari nun 1918 (after world war 1 ) to 1929 stock market crash tapos nagkarun ng Great Depression, most young people then can't afford to buy a house, lahat renting and subjected to the whims of the elite. the young did not take this well, and there was strong resentment against elite, of which nagkanda letse letse na

di naman siguro mag-gyera by 2040 to 2045 as was 1940 to 1945, Im predicting it would start 2060 above

so given all this data, mag-aspire ka pa ba ng house and lot, na ma-destroy din once the World War 3 happens.

enjoy nyo na lang sarile nyo and your wife and yun condo nyo ngaun na post mo ,

wala eh, di ko maintindihan kumbakit ang mahal ng real estate ngaun considering na we have so much unused land as compared to HK or Singapore . so artificially pinalalaki talaga.

when they allowed the Chinese to enter here, and live here, just to bloat the real estate prices. Dun ko nalaman, walang nationality nationality sa mga Pilipino whether Ayala, Megaworld, Filinivest pa yun. All they care about is doubling or tripling their projects income regardless kung dayuhan na ang maninirahan


we are just slaves of the elite. pero, we can be classy slaves. Coffee milk tea, internet fiber, leather bags, sila din magpapasok ng mga Ikea na yan lol

2060 pa naman pala so maeenjoy ko pa yung bahay for a few decades. Tapos after the war mura na lahat ulit so maeenjoy ko murang cost of living as a senior citizen. [emoji6]

OB i think you're too optimistic

considering the friction between US and China, war between them could happen much sooner

OB, who wants to live far away from work?

syempre lahat ng tao gusto tumira sa city center

kung pwede walking distance lang to office

madami nga lupa sa Pinas but who wants to live in the middle of nowhere?

Speaking of real estate, the other day, one chinese friend asked me if real estate is cheap in the Philippines, kasi daw, he received a lot of ads lately offering condos sa pinas kaya nagtataka siya kung mura nga or hindi.

ako kasi inaantsy ko lang ang Corinthians maglagay ng compound townhouses sa mga lupain nila, ngaun kasi mayabang pa ang association dyan gusto mga mansion lagi eh kaya lang the young people dont wanna buy big houses anymore

Kasi ako bibile lang ako ng house kung sa Corinthians or green meadows. Sa Valle verde kasi kung san ako lumaki nag convert na ang mga big houses dito to townhouses compound like the ones in San Juan.

So siguro inform na lang kits pag nangyari na yun

Actually andami bagsak ng condo prices sa BGC, people just dont know whereto look. Kasi they are looking at the newly builr ones.

Yun sa forbes town center ni megaworld dami na bagsak dun and those first condos facing libingan ng bayani . Though sa libingan ng bayani ocndos, alam ko kung bakit drop prices dun

Pansinin nyo pag gabi madilim dun, wala occupants. Pati chinese takot bumile dun kasi pano na lang kung one time, nakadungaw ka sa view mo sa bintana, at napatingin ka sa isang bayani, automatic yan pag nagkarun kayo ng eye contact, the next njght lilipat na sya sa condo mo

Mayron din Chinese pamahiin siguro dila kaya never nila pinatos yun mga condos dun

Alam nyo kung ano eerie, yun part ng Uptown mall , ambaho talaga ng drainage system once inopen ni,a for repairs or maintenance work

I think that area was the torture region of the old Fort Bonifacio eh , baka hun mga pinatay nun martial law or even before, dun na Nalibing or what

Sometimes kasi we view the BGC as an expensive place, nakalimutan na natin dating kampo yan eh,

Yun part na nakuha ni ayala, sigruo may chambers ng General at Colonel yan so parang sosy place sa kampo pero yun mga nasa dulo katabi ng sqautters like Uptown mall, andun ang mga hinde kanais nais na lugar.

Fake news ka OB. Walang bumagsak na condo sa BGC. Ung sa megaworld projects sa burgos circle have gone up X2 for forbeswood and X3 for parklane. Bellagio 1, 2, 3 and 8 forbestown prices have skyrocketed. Tsaka hindi un libingan ng mga bayani. American cemetery un which well maintained and funded by the US embassy. Kung may medyo sablay na project sa BGC, ung ang fort victoria. Binili ng mga homeowners ng pacific plaza at pinatirahan ng yayas and drivers nila sa galit nila na hinarangan ang view.

Bagsak nga yan dream, yan mga Forbes Town Center ni Megaworld, kita mo sabi mo x2 or x3, eh since 2010 pa yan na luxury condos, dapat appreciated sobra yan. kasi puros luma na yan, ive. Checked the cr design , yun mgay beige na tiles na ang mga pinto may kornisa, apti ceiling, not exactly moderm looking

Check mo avida units nil ayala sa BGC, 8M for 3 bedroom pero a masa condo na super walang premium

Yun sinasabi ko sa libingan ng bayani side, dun sa papuntang naia 3 na condos, low occupancy yun, and no takers. Yun mga 26 th street below ba yun, pansinin mo laging madilim yun. Even sa lobby

I live in a condo dream , alam ko kung ang isang condo bustling with unit owners or tenants, usually well lit yan sa lobby , sa drop off point driveway and roving guards are roving inside and outside the condo perimeters. Alam ko din pag ang condo nagtitipid na, Usually may negative chatter sa Skyscraper ph ang residents. So kung ako senyo find your preferred condo sa Skyscraper, dun nyo makikita kung inaabandona na ng Condo admin ang kanila mga responsibilites sa mga units.

Besides, comdos occupied 2012 below, hinde mo gugustuhin dyan kung internet savy ko or you wanna build an internet home with Alexa, automatic lights, smart tvs, gaming , streaming , fiber connection 50mbps up.

Kasi purely old copper wiring pa ang dumadaloy dyan . As in yun brown wire, ngaun nga white na with like 6 wires inside just in case may problem sa wires, may extra 4 pa na extra. If you re in like 24th bldg, ano supply ka ni converge, pldt or globe ng Fiber cable. Eh ang mahal nun?

The problem is copper degrades in those old condos dala na din na kalumaan as well as also using old pldt port cabinets, na designed for analog pldt telephone of the past

A millennial shouldnt invest in that unless maiwan sya ng technology.

[minicarph]

Pag ganito pa ang wiring ng condo mo na lumalabas sa jack ng isang unit, eeww, hello lolo, say hi to a future of disconnects and dropping latency, or 360p videos



Dapat at least ganito, cat 6. Lalo na if you gonna install IP cCTV or even remote security for your doors

[

o ayan negotiation tips na yan if you gonna scout to rent or buy a condo, dikdikin nyo ang real estate agent, notice their facial expression, pag nag buckle yan, alam nila yan ang problema ng building

Mabuti pa sa mga house talaga, pldt or converge can spare a 10 meter of fiber line to wireup from outside to modem, pero sa condo hinde nila gagawin yan, putsa king 30th floor, that will cost more than the subscription itself.

Eh ngaun pa naman 50mpbs is just about the minimum na for 5 devices, a typical couple has 2 smarphones and 2 work computers, pano pa kung may anak or smart tv

And also check the elevators, partcularly the service ones that will carry your things when moving in like big bed or refs, or somewhere along the way , bumile ka ng super big window inverter aircon, pag sobrang dilapidated na yun, chances are magbubuhat ka nun sa hagdan,

Some interesting takeaways from the your own (linked) article. So who's credible now? Certainly not the Communists.



"The confession video does not mention prostitution,"


"Contrary to claims by Chinese media and officials that forced confessions are rare in China, the country has a long record of using interviews taped under duress against dissidents.

"A criminal justice system, such as China's, that relies on confessions, raises the risk of torture. Many televised confessions are allegedly the result of extreme coercion or torture, according to those who have been through them and their supporters," human rights activist Michael Caster wrote for CNN last year."

Kaya nga nag rerebelde Mga yan kasi binebentahan ng pinaglumaan na condo , eh kasi naman sobrang lost ng millennials puros experience experience. Mag research kasi kayo.

These old rich people are padding real estate price intheir old condos with old telephone wires, old style bathroom and kitchen tiles, mga naka kornisa na ceiling and pinto and probably cabinets, and then carperted na hallway or lobby or even the unit itself.

Tapos with old type of light bulbs, hinde LED compatible. Tapos bebenta pa din sa inyo ng what 10M ++ just because it is near forbes park or a exclusive place

Ang isang problema pa dyan sa mga old “premium” condos na yan, parking. Makikita nyo yan yun ibang tenants tambak sa parking ibang abubot nila and the management dont care. Ibig sabihin nun the admin itself is disgruntled.

Know these signals para wag na kayo maloko ng old rich

Basta remember,

Old telephone wire, yun brown, hanggang 8Mbps lang yan though great distance sa DSLAM ng provider, maybe 2-3km

Cat 5 or 6 telephone wire (or known as the ethernet, cat 5 is gray cat y is white) from 10Mbos to 50Mbps yan or known as VDSL . What is vdsl its just synchronous dsl vs old AdSL. Asynchronous dsl. Pag vdsl kung ano ang given sayo na down spead, say 20Mbs, ganun din ang up speed 20Mps. Pero pag AdSL, pag 20Mbps, minsan 5mpbs ang up or pag malas malas 1mbps. Kitang kita yan sa ookla. But distance to dslam less than 1000 meters.

And then there’s fiber, 50Mbps up to 200Mbps +, the best yan for smart home vlogger uploading hi-tech millennials families. Distance to dslam limitless.

So when you canvass your home, eto ang priority number 1 nyo, connection cables. Coz if you gonna buy an old condo with old telphone brown wire, youre gonna stuck it with for life, and paying mortgage on a old building for life din

Susme, pwede naman i-upgrade ang lines eh. Kung mahal, mahal talaga kahit luma or bago pa lines. Wala naman value niyan compared sa bibilhin eh.

hinde nnyo Kasi naiintindihan eh, Kasi either first time buyer kayo o you never lived in a condo.

i have been a condo resident for like almost 15 years now,

sa first condo ko nakita ko talaga kung gano kabilis mag-degrade ang isang condo.

it can be blamed to two things:
1. neighbors
1. admin

ang Neighbors pag may aso o burara, chances are the fleas and the cockroaches will flock sa neighboring units Nyab until such time na lilipat Yan sayo hinde mo Yan mapipigilan.

And then pag ang neighbor lagi nagluluto ng tuyo o mga masarap na pinoy na pagkain , even if with range hood, chances are mangagamoy pa din ang hallway. in time, mag aamoy Ulam ang hallway if not treated properly by the condo admin maintenance

and then there is the garbage chute. usually, ang burara dito eh mga yaya o helper na inutusan magtapon ng basura na may mga sabaw ng adobo, mechado, ramen na mag-drip sa hallway or even sa hallway papunta sa garbage chute

so given all these hygiene problems, do take note that a condo is just classy refugee camp, where in kulambo ang pagitan nyo sa isang makeshift school gym pero condo separated by walls and inverter AC.

ang Condo matande ang degradation nya, in 3-5 years time, yun bagging-bago feeling, ngaun amoy paa na.

tapos ang ginawa pa ngaun eh invite natin mga dugyot na Chinese mainlanders as neighbors.

----


so baket ka ba mag-condo instead of buying a house sa outskirts ? the primary reason is one, no more rush hour traffic wasting time, the secondary reason is smarter home with fast high speed internet so that you can make use of the time to work efficiently.

yan ang basehan dapat ngaun if one is to buy or rent a condo. so diva natulungan ko pa kayo ma-filter out mga inimbento ng mga REal Estate agents na kesyo premium location daw, lapis sa mall etc etc. These days sa Dami choices na condo, prepare for your future, dapat cable wires ang una priority

and also third priority is parking, pag ang condo parking lot hinde pa LED at Madami nag keep ng abubot nya, chances are madilim ang parking kasi matagal magpalit ang condo admin ng ilaw, pero kung full LED Yan, well lit Yan for a number of years. the abubot problem in parking can start a fire and burn your brand new spanking SUV.
