BORACAY

Boracay

We all know Boracay; beautiful beach. About 1 Million tourists per year. But look at it now; overcrowded and high prices.
Read further about what's going on now...
They just started to make an International Airport at Caticlan (5 minutes South of Boracay).
Boracay has (or had) a 'construction-ban' so we do not expect much activity there in the future.
For expansion we could look at Carabao Island (San Jose town) which is 5 minutes North of Boracay and foreign investors have plans to build a 'Second Boracay' there.
That's nice, but prices of real estate are already skyrocketing because of that news; and it will have the same future as Boracay (which is not looking good).
Now look at the island Tablas (30 minutes North of Boracay); it has an airport, the same beaches as Boracay, lots are cheap, and most important; it's quiet. Far from the “karaoke terror”. Fresh air. Some locations adopt the 'zero waste and zero pollution policy'.

We are planning to start a 'LOW COST RETIREMENT VILLAGE' there, or 'community' or whatever, for expats like us. Without the expensive pool, without homes like castles, without noise because if you are looking for that you can go to Boracay which is very near.
And the best part is that on the same island Tablas we can grow pili nuts
(see the details on our webpage http://www.sibonga.com/samar-romblon.htm).
An investment of $30,000 in organic pili nuts farming should give $700 per month income for the next 75 years or more. (optional pay $15,000 cash, rest per month but meanwhile get income from quick-cash-crops).
Compare that to the condotel-investments...

American investors are already building a retirement village at probably the most beautifull beachlot of Tablas but again it is like always a luxury development ($175,000 minimum); however it shows clearly that we have to take action fast as long as prices of lots are very low.
We could form a group of expats and together at least secure some nice beaches and farmland.
After that we can decide what to do with it.
Raising horses would be a nice hobby and tourist-attraction also, or growing 'quick cash crops' or flowers or a bee farm.

Thanks for your time.
