Canadian Spends $300K+ To Build His Dream Home Philippines

Building a "forever home" in the Philippines is often a rollercoaster of emotions, but for one Canadian expat, it’s a mission of precision. In today’s video, we’re taking an exclusive tour of a massive, half-finished luxury build that is pushing the boundaries of local construction.

From five bathrooms equipped with Japanese toilets to soaring high ceilings that redefine tropical living, no expense is being spared. But the house is only half the story. After navigating the complexities of the local building scene, our host found a way to solve the biggest headache for expats: finding reliable labor.
