Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Quezon City
The Philippines' largest city by population, with a more local and less corporate feel than Makati or BGC -- meaning lower rents and a more authentic Filipino daily experience. English is universally spoken, and you'll find major universities, hospitals, and shopping centers throughout. It's less polished than the business districts but offers significantly better value, with a sprawling, neighborhood-driven character.
Island-hopping on weekends, karaoke as a national religion, and a Filipino hospitality so genuine that you will be adopted by your neighbor's entire extended family before your first month is over.
Visa
SRRV (Special Resident Retiree Visa) — available from age 40+. Requires $15,000-50,000 deposit depending on age and pension status. Grants indefinite stay with multiple-entry privileges. SIRV (Special Investor Resident Visa) — requires $75,000 investment in Philippine securities. No age minimum. Both offer permanent residency.

Next steps for moving to Philippines
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
