In the philippines prices for land are not normally geared from out side, people say what they want and its normal twice the real value or more. You have to barter a deal. But the problem is who owns the lot and property and who can claim after you buy it. Its normaly straight forward if you buy a house from a house managent group. But buying land can be one hell of a problem without good legal backing. Your get a far relative or relatives make claim on the property you have bought if your not careful.
Forget the norm with the world market it does not normally effect the prices here to much. |
