Dipolog Houseand Lot For Sale

Dipolog house and lot for sale

Site Visit

Today we are seeing progress again on our Diplog house and lot. The upper floor has been laid by I am a little worried about the many cracks in the concrete, I am not sure the mixture was right. Work has started on the shuttering of the upper floor

We might have a problem with the bathroom and have asked that the architect checks the dimensions of the bath we have ordered to see that it in. It seems raising the riot act last week may have got them back on course to complete by 7th December.

The site next to us has been sold and a start has been made on clearing the site, however the excavator has removed some of the soil from our lot, so now we have a sloping front garden, down to the road level when we wanted the garden to be the above the road . So we have requested the soil be replaced, whist the excavator is still on site.

We were in a bit of a rush as Jasmin had a plane to catch, but we will revisit on Thursday for another update.

I Will Sell Your House For Free

Dipolog house and lot for sale

How to Sell your house for Free

Today I discovered anew company with a unique marketing plan which not only can save people money when moving house but can also be turned into a business. The worlds finances are still in trouble and many people are struggling to sell houses to reduce their debt burden. The problem is there are few buyers and the costs of moving house can mount up quickly. I should know having moved house earlier this year.

  • The company provides a free listing for all sellers and if the property is not sold in 12 weeks pays the seller a small weekly compensation until sold. Sell your house for Free
  • Buyers are also encouraged to use the service and will have legal fees and survey paid plus 50% of removals costs. Look for Property to Buy
That is a win win situation for both parties, but how can they afford all this, the answer is advertising, you see moving home incurs many ancillary costs and companies are only to keen to keen to have advertising on high traffic sites listed in Alexa. On top of which they have a number of international investors.

So now what of the business side, well interested parties can buy a franchise for a particular area and earn commissions on all sales in that area, in addition they can earn money from sub affiliates either in their area or from anywhere in the world.

Marketing Your Business

Today is a departure from my usual tips, as I discovered new company with a unique marketing plan which not only can save people money when moving house but can also be turned into a business. The worlds finances are still in dire strakes and many people are struggling to sell houses to reduce their debt burden. The problem is there are few buyers and the costs of moving house can mount up quickly. I should know having moved house earlier this year.

Now I think they have all angles covered and we will have to see how everything pans out, The only thing I do not like is the early starter Guarantees, which sound a bit get rich quick, but I can understand this is needed in order to get the all areas covered as soon as possible and the guarantees will not last forever.

Dipolog Houseand Lot For Sale -Slow Progress

Dipolog house and lot for sale

Slow building Progress

Our visit to check on progress of our Dipolog house and lot for sale today was disappointing. Our expectations were that work would have started on the second floor walls. The reality was that they are still working on the floor and apparently had run out of re bar and awaiting more. This slow progress is unacceptable, so we put in a complaint to the developers Mediatrix Homes. Having paid cash in advance there should never be a shortage of material, and this is the second time in a month work has been delayed. yes you could blame the weather, the public holidays Etc, but in reality it is lack of project planning.

We have requested a copy of the project schedule and require a status on all materiel which we have selected and are needed to complete our Dipolog house. We now fear that there will be further delays with Christmas fast approaching which means many more holidays on the horizon. We need to nip this matter in the bud now and get the project back on course. I now wish we had stuck to out guns and insisted on stage payments to ensure not only are house was completed in a timely manner but also to ensure the cash we paid was solely used against out project

Dipolog Houseand Lot For Sale - Electricity Supply

Dipolog house and lot for sale

Electricity

The electricity to provide power to your Dipolog house and lot will be supplied from overhead power line and one thing you will notice is the poles are mot very high with the result that the power lines sag and can be snagged by high sided commercial vehicles. I have seen this happen even in the centre of Dipolog city. I am not sure why the lines are not placed on higher poles which in addition to keeping them clear of traffic might also reduce illegal connections. I can understand that laying cables underground might not be an option due to frequent flooding.

Compared to the rest of the Philippines, the cost of electricity in Mindaneao at the moment is much lower as over %0% of the power is supplied by hydro and geothermal power power stations, but this is set to change as there is talk of privatising these aging supply sources.

For some reason the Government seems to be restricting the use of solar power despite the Philippine Solar Power Alliance (PSPA), urging the National Renewable Energy Board (NREB) to increase to 230 megawatts the total allowed capacity of the solar energy facilities that will be put up in the country over the next three years. NREB's initial proposal was only 100 MW.

According to the PSPA, government data showed that there are 44 solar power projects awaiting approval for their service contracts. These projects can generate a combined 420 MW should their contracts be approved. A large number of them will be located at Mindanao, specifically in Davao, Zamboanga, Misamis and Cagayan de Oro.

Many people who own property discover that some high load appliances do not work due to low voltage supply and have to purchase or rent transformers to resolve the situation. If more power sources were feeding the grid this would not be necessary.

Dipolog City Health care

Dipolog house and lot for sale

Health care

Some people who purchase a house for sale in Dipolog city might be concerned about health care. One thing is sure, even though the cost is low, the standards are high with many practitioners having trained overseas in Western countries or Australia. The equipment in state hospitals may be dated but Private hospitals are well equipped.

I have used dental clinics in both Dipolog city and Sindangan, and whilst the exterior may seem rundown, the equipment inside has been brand new incorporating the latest technologies. Compared to Malaysia where I recently moved from I would say local dental clinic are better equipped.

One thing it is difficult to purchase in Dipolog City is Original Sunglasses, there are plenty of fakes which may be cheaper but just do not compare, so if you plan to stay sometime ensure you bring good glasses with you to protect your eyes.

Dipolog Houseand Lot For Sale

Dipolog house and lot for sale

We paid a further visit to out Dipolog house for sale and the weekend and progress remains slow, but it is beginning to take shape as a House. We expect the final concrete poring of the ground floor walls to be completed in the coming week and work to start on the upper floor.

We took the opportunity during our visit to Dipolog to check out the white sand beach of Dakak. Unfortunately the beach resort charges an entrance fee, even if you a merely seeking about the resort for future use, which seems a strange way to market a business and is perhaps a reason why the resort is under under utilised. The beach resort itself is undergoing renovation and the staff are not particularly friendly. Yes there is a great white sand beach, the sand having being imported, as white sand is not normal in Zanorte. I am not sure I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Dipolog City.
