Can a Foreigner Build a Dream Home in the Philippines for Less Than $55,000? 3 Bed, 3 Bath & Pool
Seven weeks in, and our self-sustainable dream home in Corella, Bohol, is finally taking shape! In this video, we’ll show you how far we’ve come with a full tour of the house and land.
We’ll also talk about some unexpected challenges, like a drainage issue that almost threw us off track. Plus, you’ll see how our build is stacking up against the original renders of our 3-bed, 3-bath home with a pool—all on a budget that seems too good to be true!
After visiting the Philippines for over 20 years, I (Matt) sold everything in Australia to make the permanent move and join my partner, April, in chasing our dream of building a self-sustainable paradise in Corella, Bohol. Together, we’re creating a solar-powered home with veggie gardens, a fish pond, and chickens—all while learning the ins and outs of building in the Philippines.
Subscribe to follow our journey as we step away from the confines of modern life, embrace simplicity, and figure out how to build and live sustainably in our tropical paradise!
