Anyway, you have mentioned about exemption on CGT for the sale of a principal residence. Can you provide more details on this? I am planning to sell my house also and move to a new one. I don't know how to price it, i.e. taken into consideration the taxes that should be paid, if any. Thanks a lot! Dennis Hi Jay!

However, if the money is not badly needed right now and there is still enough cash to buy a new house, I think it is much better to sell your old house next year to make its market value higher. The probability of having a buyer is low as of now when the tragedy of Ondoy is still fresh. Well, that is just my opinion. .-= office furniture ortigas´s last blog ..<a href="http://manilaofficespace.com/articles/2009/rp's-top-25-contact-centers-post-p685b-revenue-for-2007" rel="nofollow">RP's top 25 contact centers post P68.5B revenue for 2007</a> =-.

I am married for 2 years now. My wife and I have been saving up money for our first house and also we are looking for good real estate investments. The thing is we are just newbies on this and we don't much about stuff like taxes. If you have posts regarding this please provide me the link. Thanks! Hi Jay,

I saw some internet ads with units for sale (84sqm) ranging from 3.2M - 4M. My husband and I almost got a unit there, but we didn't push through because we were able to buy a house and lot in San Juan. Just like you, we were hit by typhoon Ondoy and that pushed us much quicker to pursue getting our own house. I've been following your posts on foreclosure properties, they are very interesting indeed. Thanks and more power! .-= ros´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.roszain.com/2009/10/now-its-ours.html" rel="nofollow">Now It's Ours</a> =-. Hi Jay,

Looks like you will be a real estate mogul in Batangas! For now we are more inclined to stay in the Metro because we want to be near the schools for my son. But who knows, Batangas is also a good place! Hi Red. Looks like you will be a real estate mogul in Batangas!
