Philippines welcome back to another video with your Nelly super happy to see you for today's video that says I went to the Philippines most expensive area it looks like it's a far enough so I don't know what to expect I don't know where he went but I guess it's somewhere in Manila because yeah one of the most expensive areas is in actual fact in Manila maybe I can add my two cents to this because I used to live in Manila as well and I would also be very curious to see this Fara reaction of the place and without further Ado I would say let's just jump straight it today I went to the most expensive area in the Philippines $2.9 million Australian for this party in Metro M most expensive luxurious homes in the entire country wo that's actually really cool with average property prices raing from 50 to 57 million pezos I wanted to find out what's the general public's opinion on the area so mccar is both rich but also dangerous yeah you might get sh properties look like up close oh you have like a nature garden outside oh nice and I also want to to speak to the owners to find out how they're able to afford these homes Hey sir we're doing a video very nice car what do

Angeles what are you doing in U Manila I'm providing this country the next generation of 911 I'm from what m not sure if you knew this but mcari is known as Philippines most expensive area I feel like BGC is more expensive I thought maybe it was more BGC which is a $2.5 million condominium for a three-bedroom I don't think they have that here what makes it so expensive like a lot of foreigners are here here in MTI there's a lot of um high-end Villages and what do people usually do for work around here mostly buiness ordinary what do you think about mcari you know like is a nice area to live in or there are some places you shouldn't really go to cuz like shank or whatever so M all right I love how the video gets straight into it no big explanation whatsoever I don't know who this dude is if he's just visiting or if he lives in the Philippines maybe he will tell us I don't know but it's a bunch of like different people who got interviewed and it makes me really curious to see what they all have to say about it he's both rich but also dangerous yeah kind of what do you think the average house price is in McCarthy it's most probably 10 the least the least yeah Le 10 million W what do you think the rent is like if you wanted to rent a condo for example how much would it cost a week or a month a month a month condo is around like $600 50 I should ,000 pezos a month yeah after speaking to the public we learned that mcti may not be the most expensive area but GC was the more lavish neighborhood in the Philippines curious to find out what this wealthy area has to offer we met with fate a local real estate agent who was kind enough to show us some luxury homes in the area so what are we doing today show okay I know that area Inc okay a video about that and after following f up 49 stories we finally arrived at the penthouse I am ready I ready welcome wa that's actually really cool nice view though so this is a penthouse a 49 story Penthouse yes we have two floors so two floors that's impressive not going to lie I'm going to guess how much is this worth okay sure four bedrooms four bathrooms BGC one parking one parking and what year was this building built last year okay so built in 2023 I'm going to guess an Australian do okay you can oh I'm so curious 3 and half million Australians wow 2 and half million higher 3 million almost 2.9 Million this so Filipino property can be you know expensive sem expensive xarts XS okay okay cool and is that the case with um most people living in this building there are a lot of Filipino buyers as well I was taken back by the beautiful views that this price range offers in the pen but Fay also wanted to show us even more luxury where we got speak with the owner and ask her a few questions about owning property in the Philippines but before that they gave us a live to Forbes Park yeah vanilla's Forbes Park contains many it's one of the most expensive areas in the Philippines 1 billion to 32 billion pezos to buy making it one of the most expensive streets in the Philippines Forbes Park is an area also home to Manny pakia one of the world's most famous former professional box I'm just here with my Filipino tux driver right now we're just about to go into Manny Pacquiao's house you wish um this is George by the way tell us friends of mine are friends with Manny Pacquiao and they did videos about his house wow like just hanging out with him fun in back yes and after a quick drive we were now in for's park miss you already all right and I wanted to take a walk through the street to do some door knocking and hopefully speak to wealthy home so there's some huge houses on my left right here we're going to guess the house prices and there's like a huge like gated community here so it is quite a culture shock it's very different from Australia obviously what are your thoughts it's like turac in Melbourne it's like turac in Melbourne hell I don't know cuz there's trees here cuz there are trees here it looks like turac apparently oh what what are this house well check that out KN that's just cool like yeah you can't really enter those places because it's first of of all most people they have gods and then secondly it's a gated community meaning that if you are not on the list you're not going to enter from Australia you own this house no I'm just a security guard oh you're security guard security guard can we come in look at the house okay no worries thank you thank you after quickly getting rejected we started getting weird looks from the security guards and passing cars leaving us with no choice but to stop filming on the street you know we're in a different country so we don't want to do the wrong thing no I don't think see the luxury condo in BGC I don't think they anything against the buying and owning property here in the Philippines in the Philippines in terms of property I recently bought a block of property in Australia there's something in Australia called the first homeowners buyers Grant and it's free feel like someone looking to buy their first home does the Philippines have something like that no here in the Philippines you can own as much um it depends you can get a discount if it's above if you buy more than two then then you get a discount and now we getting a discount on a very high prices and I got to speaking to the owner about her family and the property itself this is my boyfriend George hello [Music] George wa so do you live here yeah oh nice to meet you thank you thank you than you I live with my son and my husband my my husband oh oh on business yes and you're how old are you 50 50 you have an American accent I was watching TV he was Bor watching TV oh you like a nature garden outside yeah oh nice wow that's actually really cool are you going to push me off for the video it might go viral Nike basketball court down there look at that Geor looking in sh we let me Shy George they're not doing a great job at messing around with George I wanted to ask the owner more about her home thank you for us around apartment and I want to guess how much his apartment's worth that's okay with you in Australian dollars okay I'm going to say um how many bedrooms two three bedrooms BGC 37 this one will be worth $2 million wow yeah all right really it's 1.95 oh good guess huh yeah and I not so what does your husband do for work he used to be working in a casino and the dealer no he was the CEO oh co of a casino what do you do for work nothing uh that's good take care for kids good for her what do you think it takes for someone in the Philippines to you know live in a nice place like this I think you should be earning like maybe a million 1.5 a month living comfortably because the even the basic Commodities the restaurants here are a bit higher jobs here would give some one it really EDS a maret you said actually Philippines is uh we have a lot of international companies yeah so I think a lot of exports here so and most of the people who live here are expats yeah like you know higher exellent of the corporate world about like wealthy Filipinos that are from the Philippines what sort of jobs do they have most of them own their own businesses what would someone from jollybee earn for example like working full-time at jollybee how much would they earn a month J 16 15,000 a month which is that's insane that's like wow that's crazy and last what do you think is the secret to success in the Philippines if you really want to be rich you have to have your own business you have ex and uh yeah and good connection after seeing the H's most expensive area I was surprised by the big price difference to own properties in Manila compared to back home City and I'm thankful to see what luxury in the Philippines looks like make sure you guys comment below on where I should go okay very interesting video I have my own take on property in the Philippines I used to own two and there are quite good deals from the developers that kind of like make it very easy to invest however selling it is a different topic to being a struggle but yeah that's just me you know I don't know what your experience has been with properties in the Philippines but I personally believe it's very expensive compared to worldwide and all like compared to the Philippines like the average income all I can say is just expensive like I used to pay the same amount of rent in Austria and also in Miami so you know it's not cheap to live in the Philippines mhm that's what I learned if you enjoyed this video please give it a thumbs up if you are new
