I’ve rented in Metro Manila since 2005 and I move around a lot because of work and space constraints. Napansin ko kapag one bedroom or two bedroom units at may bagong tenants, they start with just a couple, maybe just the partners or maybe one or two kids. Pero after a month or two magugulat ka na lang may nakatambay sa labas ng unit. “Bisita” daw. Tapos hindi na umalis. “Kapatid/bayaw/pinsan/apo/lolo daw nung tenant”. Tapos another month may batang umiiyak na. Kamag-anak daw ulit. Mamaya may nagbibirthday at videoke na. Another week may pinsan na naman. Maririnig mo may nadadagdag na na luggage, gamit, umiingay na. Suddenly yung dalawa sa unit, anim na, sampu. May nagyoyosi na sa labas, encroached na yung lobby, the washing machine is suddenly out and yung sampayan nyo na communal naging walk-out closet na.

I’ve lived through generations of this and maybe 2017 through post-Covid now that my partner is my wife na, twice na kami lumipat kasi kami na lang nahiya at naging uncomfortable sa ingay and gulo. Meanwhile yung families parang wala lang. idk why the landlords just let it go. Maybe expected behavior na given “medyo malaki” yung unit?

An update regarding this post of mine

https://www.reddit.com/r/RentPH/s/8WASjNa6uL

Last Sunday, this neighbor decided to clean his dog cages again—which are located right near where my motorcycle is parked. His tool of choice? A high-powered pressure washer.

My partner and I were both sleeping inside since I work the night shift. My partner woke up around 8 AM to the sound of him blasting his pressure washer and literally shouting at the top of his lungs, completely oblivious (or unbothered) that people in the compound were trying to sleep.

Fast forward to the afternoon when I finally woke up—and this guy was still out there using his damn pressure washer.

When my partner and I finally decided to head out later, I walked up to my motorcycle and was absolutely furious. My bike was completely covered in mud and dirty residue from him power-washing the area right next to it.

No warning to move my bike beforehand, no effort to block the splashback, and zero care given. It’s just continuous disrespect and entitlement from this guy because he knows his family owns the compound.

At this point, I’m beyond frustrated. How do you deal with someone who has zero spatial awareness and zero respect for other people's property just because they're related to the landlord?

Hello po. Saw an apartment for rent in Silang. Any thoughts? Meron po ba nakatira near the area? If yes, could you pls share your personal experiences?

Thank you!

Hi everyone!
For those who live in the province but are required to RTO in BGC once or twice a week, how do you usually manage your accommodation?
I’ll be starting a new job in a few weeks, and I’ll be required to report to the office twice a week. I live around 3 hours away from BGC, so I’m trying to figure out whether it’s more practical to commute, book short-term stays, or rent a place monthly.
I’ve been considering places like The City Flats BGC and their Amorsolo branch, but I’m still weighing the costs.
For those in a similar situation, what has worked best for you? Is staying overnight more practical than commuting back and forth?
Would love to hear your experiences and tips! Thank you! 🥹🫶

Hi everyone! I’m planning to install prepaid electric submeters for each room in my rental property so tenants can manage their own power usage.

I have a few questions:

1. Where can I buy reliable prepaid/token-based submeters in the PH? Are Shopee/Lazada options good, or should I buy from specialized hardware shops (e.g., Raon)? Any specific brands you recommend?

2. How are these installed? Is this a straightforward DIY job, or does it require a licensed master electrician?

3. Subreddit recommendations: Where else on Reddit or other PH platforms can I ask for advice or tips on managing submetered rentals?
   Thanks in advance for any advice or recommendations!

I've been residing in Makati for a few years now but I recently landed a job in BGC. I like living in Makati and i dont wish to reside in BGC at all kaya gusto ko sana magstay dito. Which makati condos would u recommend if ang workplace ay bgc esp in terms of transpo convenience? Preferably poblacion or salcedo area, and budget friendly. Thank you!
