For the past few weeks, I have been on a six-day work week. This set-up really drained my energy. Most importantly, it made it impossible for me to go home to our province, a 10-hour bus ride from Manila. I miss my family so much! How I wish I could [...]

This is part one of a 3-part series on the types of income one can get through in real estate investing. Rather than write another 3000+ word nosebleed article, I’ll break it down into three parts which should be more manageable and easier to digest.

We say goodbye to 2009 and give thanks for a very memorable year. In 2009, we marked the first year anniversary of Foreclosure Philippines, although I never got around to creating my first anniversary post.

I was cleaning out my archived emails in preparation for returning my company issued laptop when I stumbled upon this very interesting story in one of my emails in my sent items.
