Vista Land Site Appreciation Tour: Cottonwoods

I used to be so envious when I hear about colleagues or friends able to purchase properties through the help of their companies' housing loan program. This means they can afford the monthly amortization out from their salaries.

But when I heard about some entrepreneurs that were able to purchase better homes out from their profits, then I knew there was still plenty of hope for the persistent who is willing to take the risk in setting up their own business.

What really amazed me was when they also shared their strategy in earning a few more extra bucks by investing in stocks and real estate. They say if you want to gamble a little but earn big time, get into stocks, but if you really want an almost 100% sure profit, purchase properties.

Of course he was referring to houses and lots. These are investments that will not give you a hard time in enjoying the profits immediately. You'll just have to wait a few years and your investment already multiplied.

Our next tour that's part of the Vista Land Site Appreciation Tour is at Cottonwoods in Antipolo. The community offers American Country-style houses.

Vista Land Site Appreciation Tour: Mille Luce

We've been going around touring the many communities available developed by the Vista Land group. It has been a blast when the organizers decided we visit more than one within a day. The traffic congestion due to blocked roads at the Bonifacio Global City because of a racing event, and the unfortunate rainy weather didn't stopped us from pushing through with our plans.

So from Sucat, Paranaque, we travelled to Antipolo which is famous for its cashew nuts and the church where you normally take your brand new car for blessing.

The elevated streets of Antipolo makes it less prone to flooding, and it's still mostly surrounded with greens making it a fresher alternative as compared with the rest of Metro Manila.

I once contemplated on buying a home there due to the amazing scenery especially when you're at the upper portions of Antipolo.

Maybe it's about time I reassess that longing. A visit at two of the Vista Land properties here made me rethink of my earlier plans.
