Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are these calculations?
Our calculator uses real market data from Boracay properties, but actual returns may vary based on factors like property condition, location, and market fluctuations. We recommend using this as a starting point for discussions with our team.
Can foreigners own property in Boracay?
Foreigners can own condominium units (with individual ownership under the building's Tax Declaration) but not land directly. Many foreigners also use long-term leases (25-50 years) or form Philippine corporations. Our team can guide you through the options.
What's included in the management fees?
Agency management (30%) typically includes listing creation and optimization, guest communication, check-ins, housekeeping, maintenance coordination, and financial reporting. Self-management (5%) accounts for basic costs like cleaning supplies and minor repairs that you'd handle yourself.
How is the 5-year appreciation calculated?
We use a conservative 5% annual appreciation rate based on historical Boracay property value increases. Some areas may appreciate faster, especially with infrastructure improvements or increasing tourism.
