The Summer That Raises Them Filipino
Video calls cannot teach your kids what a summer with their cousins can: the language heard at the dinner table,
the beach at sunrise, lolo and lola telling stories they will repeat to their own children. When school lets out
abroad, the Philippine beach season is waiting — the same warm months, the same free time, the same sun.
Own It Your Way
This is not a timeshare. This is fluid, liquid, programmable real asset
ownership — with equity buildup and management decisions in your hands — held on private,
digital, smart, and legal contracts. Your family chooses how:
- Own the summer: hold a deeded family share of a condominium title with your summer season
guaranteed every year (legal for foreign buyers under R.A. 4726) — the reunion has a permanent home.
- Own it entirely: keep the whole residence, let the extended family use it year-round, and rent
it out when nobody is home — if and when you choose.
- Rent first: not ready to own? Rent a family summer stay once and see what it does for your
kids.
Costs split pro-rata on a transparent ledger, a managing co-owner maintains the residence all year, and your share
passes to the next generation or sells whenever you choose — it is real, titled property.
Straight Answers
We live abroad. Can we legally own it?
Yes. Philippine condominium units can be owned by foreigners and dual citizens under the
Condominium Act (R.A. 4726). Balikbayan families are exactly who this was designed for.
What about the months we are not there?
Your choice: family in the Philippines can use it, other seasonal co-owners take their own
seasons, or you rent unused weeks and take the income on the same transparent ledger.
What does a family share cost to keep?
Dues, taxes, utilities, and upkeep are divided pro-rata by share and settled on a ledger every
owner can read — plus a visible management fee and a repair reserve funded before anything else. No surprise
assessments; the books are the same for everyone.
What stops a family disagreement from souring it?
The rules are agreed in writing before anyone buys: decisions are votes in proportion to shares,
and differences settle by buy-out, not break-up — someone who wants out sells their share, and nobody can
force the home onto the market. The reunion survives the argument.
How does renting first work?
Tell us your family size and dates in the form below. You stay one summer as guests, see what it
does for your kids, and decide about owning after — no obligation either way.
Can it stay in the family?
Yes — a deeded share is inheritable, and the optional trust structure makes passing it on
or selling a private transfer measured in days or weeks, with the trust keeping it out of probate. See
how the ownership works, in plain language.
