Kadalasan iniisip natin na ang pagkakaroon ng sariling bahay ay para lamang sa mga empleyadong mataas ang sweldo o sa mga pamilyang nasa middle-class. Isang maling kaisipan na gusto kong itama sa pamamagitan ng blog post na ito. 
Marami na ang programa ng murang pabahay ngayon at ilan nga sa mga nabisita ko ay nasa Cavite at Laguna. Ito lang ang mga dapat mong alamin: · Miyembro ka ng Pag-ibig at may 24 buwan na hulog · May trabaho o maliit na negosyo · May pangarap na magkaroon ng sariling bahay para sa pamilya Para sa mga naghahanap ng murang bahay sa Calamba, pwede nyong tignan ang VALLE DULCE at VALLE ALEGRE na projects ng Filinvest. This is the BERNICE house model which you can reserve for only Php 5,000!!! Yes, FIVE THOUSAND lang po ang reservation fee. Nasa Php 6,692* lamang po ang equity o babayaran nyo for the next 12 months samantalang may option kayo to pay the balance in 30 years for as low as Php 4,007* kaya magaan po ito sa bulsa! Other Financing options are also available.  Una, kung ikaw ay isang empleyado, kasama sa mga ikinakaltas sa iyong sweldo ay ang Pag-ibig membership fee. Kapag member ka na ng Pag-ibig, sa loob ng 2 taon lamang ay maaari ka na mag housing loan. Ang laki ng loan ay nkdepende sa taas ng iyong sweldo. Ikalawa, kung ikaw ay maaari na magloan, pwede ka na magsimula maghanap ng mga murang pabahay na pwede i-loan sa Pag-ibig. Kadalasan ang mura lang ang mga ito at kayang kaya ng mga simpleng pamilya. Sa Pag-ibig loans, papahiramin ka ng pera upang mabayaran mo ang kabuuang presyo ng bahay na bibilhin mo, pagkatapos nito ang perang nautang mo sa kanila ay maaari mong bayaran ng buwanang hulog sa loob ng 25 -30 years. Ang tawag dito ay monthly amortization. Ang pinakamataas na pwede mong makuha ay 40% ng iyong buwanang sahod. Halimbawa, kung kumikita ka ng 10,000 sa isang buwan, maaari kang kumuha ng bahay na hanggang 4,000 ang monthly amortization. Kailangan mo lamang isumite ang mga dokumentong hihingiin ng inyong developer. May mga murang pabahay na umaabot lamang ng tatlo hanggang apat na libo ang hulog kada buwan! Hindi mo na kailangan mangupahan!
 Hindi mo kailangan isipin na mataas ang down payment ng isang bahay na bibilhin. Ang downpayments ay kadalasan hinahati hati din sa ilang buwan. Merong mga 24 months to pay -12 months to pay. Para ka lang din nangungupahan. May mga promo din na magcash out ka lang ay maaari ka na lumipat tulad ng LIPAD AGAD promo ng BERKLEY HEIGHTS sa Sta.Rosa Laguna sa halagang 35,000* pesos. Kailangan mo lang isa-alang alang na ang buwanang hulog ay mababa lamang. Habang nagrerenta ka, pag dating ng panahon ay mayroon ka nang sariling bahay at lupa. Sana makatulong eto para mas lalo kayong magkaroon ng lakas ng loob para magsimulang abutin ang pangarap nyong bahay.

First time home buyers are often trapped in hard decision making situations especially for most Filipino families who considers a lot of things before getting their own house and lot. Regardless of the urgency of the situation, buyers should never make a decision that would put them at risk in the future. Here is another helpful list of 4 common mistakes of the first time home buyers. I hope by reading this post, you'll avoid falling into the trap of any of these.  DID YOU KNOW that Amaris Homes in Cavite offers the model house ELYANA Basic with Floor Area of 46 sqm but with different lot options for as low as Php 1,274,050. You can reserve this beautiful townhouse for Php 10,000 only! 1) They do not have a concrete budget plan. This is where most of us should start. Its like wondering around the grocery store, looking for the stuff you need but you don’t have any idea how much your pocket contains. It could only result into two things; either you go over or under your financial capacity. Going over budget would result to debt, which nobody wants. 2) They cannot decide on what they need exactly. This is generally a picking error. One day you decide you wanted a two storey, next morning you want a duplex. You cannot make up your mind on what type of house, in which location from which developer. You end up having to reserve different units and retracting your decisions which cost you a lot of money. Before diving into the market, make sure you have the specific list of the things you are looking for in your future house.
READ my previous post for practical tips about finding your dream house and house with suggested different properties for you to consider.  3) Not being aware of the hidden/other costs. You might probably have a budget in mind and you stick to it, but you forget about the other hidden charges you may need to pay. This results to you, needing more money than what you expect to spend. Always remember that a good budget plan includes an extra allowance for other unexpected expenses such as documentary expenses, bank fees etc.
 CALL or TEXT me at 0917 739 8227 for any questions about the properties I've featured on this blog. I'll be happy to assist you in finding the right home for you. 4) They forget about the after sales renovations. This is a common mistake for many first time home buyers. Once they have been presented with the model house, they instantly fall in love with the aesthetic aspect, forgetting about the fact that they have to pay for the interior renovations. So they forget to prepare financially for this aspect. From bare unit...  To this... Remember that most of the actual turn-over units are bare so you have to allot a budget for interior design and other things you want to add.  Searching for your future home can be both daunting and overwhelming. I have seen a lot of first time home buyers make plenty of mistakes, either for buying a house more than they could afford or for not being happy about the result. Consider the guidelines listed above. Preparation is the key to success. Always consider the future. I'm your House Hopper Apple Allison and you can contact me at 0917 739 8227 if you need help in finding your dream house.

Draw your dream. This can mean literally or figuratively. Put specifics into your dream house. Write down how many storeys, how many rooms, would you like to have a little garden outside? Do you want a carport? These are the things that you would like to see in your future home. With so many options available in the market, I am pretty confident that you’ll find an offer that will suit your needs. A vision board of different house models and properties can also be a big help. You use the flyers given to you or you can also come-up with a digital version so that you always see it. Like in my case, I particularly love the house models in South Forbes so I put it in my vision board.  I particularly like the design of this clubhouse in one of their themed community so I included it in my dream board together with other house models that I loved.  Chase your dream. You know I never thought that my house hopper adventures will open my eyes to bigger dreams... for a while I was already contented of what I have and I'm secured of having my own house and lot in the province but now I'm chasing my bigger dreams. My regular site trips let me explore more options, take more inspirations and ask more questions. 
Did you know that Liora Homes offers an affordable yet rewarding residential community. This is one of the MyCitiHomes projects I visited several times when I joined the site tripping of Driven in the past months. I noticed that there are many interested buyers after they've seen the actual project.  You can contact my mobile 0917 739 8227 if you want to visit any of the properties I've featured on this blog!  Work for your dream. We all know why we call owning a house, a-dream-come-true to everyone, because it is expensive. It has a price we need to pay for. We calculate, we budget and we deal with financial sacrifice. We have to make sure it is all worth it. You can find a suitable house for you in an affordable price. Assure that it is within your budget range. Don't forget to read my previous blog posts for affordable house and lot properties which you might want to consider.
Keep your dream alive. Let us say you have achieved your goal of finding your dream home. You were approved for a housing loan and everything else in process went smooth. A housing loan is a long term commitment. Do not forget to pay your dues on time and be responsible enough to keep your monthly payment updated. Remember that even though you have already been approved for a housing loan, you can still be penalized or worse get your property foreclosed.
So in the previous blog post, I have explained to you the various types of houses and some terms in real estate that you might find confusing. I’ve come up with another list of terms to guide you. Even though your realtors and agents are there to explain things to you, it will still be better if you have a basic understanding of these terms so you will not mistakenly commit to anything beyond your control. Total Contract Price (TCP) – this is the total amount of the property you are intending to buy. House and lot price in total. Loanable Amount – The maximum amount that you can loan from the bank, developer or Pag-ibig in order to acquire the property. For example the total contract price is 2 million pesos, the loanable amount is 1.7 million, and this means that the 300 thousand pesos remaining should come from you to complete the purchase. Down Payment – Required amount for the home buyers to pay before they can move in to the house and make improvements. In most cases, DP is divided into 12 equal payments payable in 12 months. After which the buyers can now assume the property and start the interior enhancements. Reservation Fee – The fee you need to pay to secure the reservation of the unit right away. After the reservation, you will be given a month to secure the required documents and start the monthly down payment. Deliverable Unit – The actual turn over unit from the developer. These include the description of what the home-buyers should expect in the unit they will assume. This information is normally printed in the flyers together with other unit descriptions. Here's a sample turn-over unit of Liora Homes in Cavite.
 Monthly Amortization -You need to pay attention to this detail, amortization will be your monthly payment to either Pag-ibig or bank. This is computed based on the number of years you will choose. If you want smaller monthly amortization, choose the maximum payment plan, which is 30 years. Here are some MyCitiHomes properties with very affordable monthly amortization which you might want to consider for your real estate investment.  Disclosure: I am an accredited online lead generator for Driven Marketing Group. Monthly Amortization for this property can go as low as Php 7,291* only. Located at Gen. Trias, Cavite just along the crossroads of Daang Hari and Arnaldo Highway, Liora Homes offers an affordable yet rewarding residential community. This is one of the projects I visited several times when I joined the site tripping of Driven in the past months and I noticed that there are many interested buyers who also availed their very low reservation fee after they've seen the actual project. Another project by MyCitiHomes is Amaris Homes which offers affordable 2 storey towhouses with provision for 2 bedrooms and 1 toilet in Brgy Molino Bacoor, Cavite which you can get for as low as Php 7,137* monthly through PAG-IBIG! CALL OR TEXT ME at 0917 739 8227 for inquiries and sample computation. You can also avail the FREE Site Trips to check these units.  These are just some of the basic terms you would normally hear while on the selection process of your future home. It is important that you have a full understanding of these terms because most of them deal with the financial aspects that include long term commitments. Familiarize yourself with these words and you will not be left out clueless! It will also help you choose the best deals in the market. You can now do your math! Which offer is favorable to you?

When I first ventured into real estate blogging, I didn't have any idea about these House Hunting Terms so I ended up confused during my first site trip. With my regular site visits and interaction with helpful real estate agents from Driven Marketing Group, I got to know more about the jargons used in this industry. I think this will be useful for you too. Single Attached VS Single Detached Have you ever wondered about the difference between the houses that are attached and detached? As you might have been house hunting for several weeks now, you may stumble upon the options of several subdivisions offering these types of houses. How would you know the difference?  Single Attached means that a house shares a common wall typically on both sides of the property. A duplex can be considered as an attached one. It is composed of two dwellings in generally one structure. While on the other hand a Single Detached property stands alone and with extra spaces of lot around it. Row House VS Town House The idea of these two types is the same and that is wall sharing. Row Houses are single storey units while town houses are two-stories. Some developers would initially offer row houses because they cost lower and is preferred by young starters. Later once you have acquired the property already, you will be given the chance to construct second level if you desire more rooms. When it comes to the lot, the individual unit owners are responsible for their front and back lot areas. Did you know that MyCitiHomes is known for their several townhouse projects in Cavite?! Below is the sample row house model offered by NuVista in San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan. Minimum Lot Area is 36 sqm with Floor Area of 21sqm Total Contract Price is Php 650,000. You only need Php 5,000 to reserve this unit!  Please contact me if you want to avail the FREE SITE VISIT so that you can personally check Nuvista and other developments in Bulacan which are highly accessible to Quezon City especially to Fairview.  Multi-Pod, Inner Unit and End Unit You probably have thought about getting Multipod units in some developers of your choice but you are confused which unit will you choose. Generally speaking, multipods are 3 – 4 units of houses attached / in a row. The two inner units will only have access to their front and back side of the lots but they are cheaper than end units as well. So for budget conscious buyer, inner units are advisable. End units are more expensive because the price includes the side lot usually provisioned for carports and small gardens. I've noticed that End Units are usually the preferred by house buyers and most of the time they reserve it in advance. Chances are, you'll have more options when you invest on pre-selling properties like Bali Hai Residences in Imus, Cavite which offers END Unit with lot area of 91 sqm for a total contract price of about 2,051,888.

My House Hopper experience for the past months made me realize that searching for that dream house is a daunting task. Kailangan mo ng pasensya, tyaga at higit sa lahat dapat may malinaw ka rin ideya kung ano ba ang gusto mo. When you know what you want, it's easier for you to find the property that best suits you. I hope by reading these 5 practical steps, you'll be guided in finding your own dream house. I also included some house and lot properties I've personally visited which you might want to consider. :-)  1. Determine how big and what type of house would you like for your family. Remember that this is a big investment and a long term commitment so you really have to be sure of what you want to avoid future regrets. Think about how big your family will be if you are a couple just starting out. The number of rooms in your future house may be determined by how many members you have. For a newly wed couple or those starting their small family, these very affordable units in Valle Dulce or Valle Alegre in Calamba City, Laguna maybe a good start. It can also be a retirement house for couples who would like to settle outside Metro Manila but still accessible to major establishments and their needs.
 2. Choose a location. Location is always the number one concern for many home buyers. Take into consideration the future plans for your children, such as what school are you planning to send them to? And most importantly, if you are the bread winner, the house should be accessible to your workplace. This is the part where you will schedule site visits to get the feel of the actual turn over units. If you like any of the properties I've featured on this blog, please feel free to contact me so that I can assist you in securing a slot for the FREE SITE VISITS. Please contact my mobile # 0917 739 8227. I've noticed that properties in BULACAN and CAVITE are very in demand! From affordable to middle range properties, they have it. 3. Calculate your finances and define your budget. Once you have identified a location and the type for your dream house, it’s now time to do the math, with your current financial status, how much money can you invest in your monthly amortization? This is where the trusted realtor and real estate agents from Driven Marketing Group can help you. They can easily identify the available houses that are within your range, with only few adjustments to your choices, I am pretty confident you will find the best suitable property for you. I also hope my house hopper blog posts are useful to you. Do you want to treat yourself to a little luxury? SOUTH FORBES, a private enclave in Sta. Rosa – Silang – Tagaytay growth corridor which is a 500-hectare master-planned township of boutique communities that perfectly combines residential, leisure, academic and sports components to deliver a highly urbanized lifestyle might be the one for you.  4.Secure your documents. After choosing the best unit for you, immediately work on the reservation papers. (Reservation fee and One Month Pay slip) After the reservation, you will be given a month to work on the remaining documents and have them be submitted to the developer. Most developers would reply the following:

So you have finally chosen the best unit for your family in your best preferred location and you managed to reserve it. Now all you need to prepare for is the interior improvements you will need to do once you are ready to move in. You will have a long time to prepare for this. You can either search the internet for ideas or hire an interior designer!  One of the best things I enjoyed during my house hopper stint is being exposed to different creative interior designs... I love it when I see different possibilities despite what seems to be a blank small space for me. :-)  
You know I should be writing about the Grand Riviera Suites and Golden Empire Tower, two of the prime condominium properties I've visited along Manila Bay but writer's block hit me and I don't know how to start it (I'll probably work on it tonight while looking at the stars and bright lights of the condo units near my place!). But then a message from a blog reader popped in my inbox sharing about how my House Hopper posts are helping them in their search for their dream house. They've been looking at different property listing sites but they find my property blog interesting and helpful. It made me smile... it touched me that's why for some reason I was able to write this lengthy post totally unplanned.
As an online lead generator for Driven Marketing Group, I never expected that my adventures as a House Hopper will be this significant, heart-warming in a way and well, life-changing. This blog post is about my real estate property blogging experience and how it changed the way I look at the industry and my attitude towards it. 
Because of my House Hopper blog page, I usually get message from my blog readers inquiring about the properties I've featured. Some are asking for my recommendations and additional information but majority is asking for help... "Gusto ko magkaroon ng sariling bahay. Sana po matulungan nyo kaming makahanap ng bahay at lupa na pwede sa amin ng pamilya ko." is one of the messages I received and lately I'm reading those with a profound perspective.
You know, if not for my Driven OLG involvement under Ms.Janet Toral of Digital Filipino, I wouldn't really care about real estate industry. For so many years, I already feel "secured" and to borrow my Mama's words "Hindi mo na kailangang mag-worry kasi hindi ka matutulog sa kalsada." I was assured I have a home. 
HOUSE HOPPER spotted resting in one of the units of Grand Riviera Suites along Manila Bay. If you are looking for a condo unit along Roxas Boulevard very near US Embassy, I recommend you consider this property. Contact me for more details 09177398227 or check my blog post about it. 
Now, aside from travel and tourism, I also give #SSStalk on Digital Marketing for Real Estate Industry
I am passionate in so many things but not in real estate. For a long time I had this "I don't care" attitude when it comes to saving for my own house and lot. I don't have the same drive with my colleagues who are striving to have their own nest but I changed when I saw the bigger picture that's way beyond my own dreams and comfort zone.
THROWBACK: I WAS LOST AND LOOKING FOR A SIGN
I'll be a hypocrite if I say that I instantly love real estate... Nope, it was not a love at first sight. It was more of a "to get by" thing that I need to do while I am still figuring out what I really want to do this year... I was feeling low and lost last summer after I failed to get the international tourism scholarship I long for. It was also about that time when Ms.Janet asked me what I want to do next. I said I'm still trying to figure that out but I'm very certain that I really want to take my MBA in Tourism... How? I don't know; I failed to come up with a back-up plan...
5 MONTHS LATER, things are getting clearer to me...
My property blogging experience was a roller coaster ride... there were moments I just want to give up especially during the first few weeks because it's not something that I am really passionate about. But you know, being an optimist and a strong believer of FUN, I tried to look at the brighter side so I started to enjoy everything that I do as a DrivenOLG. The moment I changed my attitude towards real estate was also a moment of big realizations for me. 
DID YOU KNOW that when I was in elementary, my dream was to become an engineer. It was during Ms.Intramurals Beauty Pageant when the host asked me what I want to become when I grow up and I answered "I want to become an engineer because I want to build tall buildings." I love sketching and drawing different kind of houses when I was little. Mama even told me that my second name "Allison" was inspired by the name of a beautiful building she saw when she was pregnant with me. It was during my site tripping in Bulacan when I was reminded of that childhood dream and I got excited when I realized that somehow, through my House Hopper adventures, I am fulfilling a part of that dream. I got too delighted about it that's why I was able to make my first ever video blog for House Hopper! Please watch it and let me know what you think about it. :-)
What can I say? I already like what I do now and I think I am falling inlove with this industry too! You see, I realized a new calling... and that is to make a difference in the lives of Filipino families by helping them find their dream property. During the homily last night, the priest talked about dreams and asked us "ANONG PANGARAP MO?" The homily almost made me cry because for so long I only cared about my dreams however this time I realized it's not just about me anymore... It now about the BIG dreams of other people and how I can be an instrument to make those dreams happen.
PANGARAP NG BAWAT PAMILYANG PILIPINO ANG MAGKABAHAY. Yes, every Filipino family dream of having their own house and lot or invest in a condo. Most of our hardworking OFWs aim to give a good life to their family, send their children or siblings to a reputable school and save for their dream house. "Gusto kong magkaroon ng bahay at lupa." is a common answer why many of us work with sweat and blood. And that's why this is now part of my calling. I've decided to answer this call for help and take it as part of my sole searching soul advocacy... - to help Filipino Families make informed decisions before they purchase - to give them list and options of available real estate properties and ultimately, to make their dream home a reality! 
Today, my HOUSE HOPPER blog page is more than just a space for me to promote different properties and share about my site trip experience. Actually, it is not about me anymore... but rather it is about my blog readers who are still dreaming of having their own house and lot.
It's more than the sale! I can honestly say that Real Estate Blogging is now closer to my heart. It's not just about generating leads anymore, it's way more than that. It's an unexpected advocacy... a calling that I adhere to answer with "Real Estate with Real Service from Real People" together with this fellow driven individuals. 
Now I remember why D.J. Dimaliuat, one of the 5 founders of DRIVEN Marketing Group, emphasized that "DRIVEN Cares". I also come to fully realize that their brokers and agents use the hashtags like #IamDRIVEN #IamCommitted by heart, not just for a mere social media post... This industry demands commitment and dedication to serve... you have to have that passion to serve and make things happen, not only for yourself but for other people.
With our regular training session and meet-up with Drivenites and Driven Elite, I've witnessed the positive company culture of DRIVEN Marketing Group as well as experienced some part of their activities. I can say that they are not driven by sales alone. More than that, they are DRIVEN by their passion and commitment to make a change in the life of their agents and clients. More than making money, it is about helping Filipino Families find and have their dream home. And now I can see myself sharing that same passion and dream with them.
I am Driven to help Filipino Families find their dream house.

Oh time flew fast!!! As I was typing this blog post, I received a call from a blog reader asking for my referral for an affordable retirement house in Cavite. His father is working in Saudi and will soon retire because of old age. They want to invest in a house and lot outside Metro Manila where they can live comfortably. If you also need information and assistance in finding your dream house and lot or condo unit, do not hesitate to contact me.

For the first time condo buyers, it can be a daunting task preparing, and going through the procurement process. It can be confusing among so many selections available as each of them offers their own advantages over the others. It is important that you know what you exactly want in a condo and you are clear of your considerations. Take a look at the checklist below for your simple guide as you acquire your very first big investment in life especially if you're looking for a unit along Roxas Boulevard, Manila.
1. Name your Price. Evaluate your current financial status and determine your budget. First and foremost, you already know that buying a condo is an investment of big amount. You have probably been saving money for this purchase, either for personal use or for future selling purposes. And since this is a big investment, you want to make it right by not going over budget. With Grand Riviera Suites you are given choices according to your budget. Choose a unit that suits your need and maximizes your money’s worth. Price starts from 2.1M to 9M. 
If you want to splurge in a living room with the beautiful view of Manila Bay, you might want to consider this 40 Million Peso Unit at Golden Empire Tower, the luxury tower just besides Grand Riviera Suites. 
2. Get a trusted developer and check out their projects. One critical but smart step in condo buying is to look for trusted developers. You can look for reviews that previous buyers have given to them. You can take a look at the forum and you will find honest condo buyers will genuinely share their experiences and provide feedback. From their inputs, choose the best. Once you have chosen the best developer, you can now take a look at their condominium projects in the location you preferred. If you prefer within Metro Manila, check the top developers voted like Moldex Realty, they are the responsible for the highest rated towers in Manila like Golden Empire Tower and Grand Riviera Suites.
3. Choose your location. Either for personal use or for future reselling of the condo, you have to consider the location. Good example would be the Roxas Boulevard where Grand Riviera Suites is located. Consider the surrounding landmarks in the condo tower. If you are living with your family, it has to be near schools, malls and hospitals. It should be near the business districts so it would be easy to market in the future.
4. Assess the Communities and Amenities. Another major thing you should check before buying the condo unit is the amenities offered and the community population. You want to be part of a peaceful and harmonious neighborhood. You also need to consider the amenities that are useful for you like what Grand Riviera Suites offers.
Get started with these four important things first and for sure you'll find yourself on your way to a successful purchase! It can be fun just like when I visit different properties that I'm sharing in this house hopper blog page.
Please take note of these INITIAL REQUIREMENTS in case you want to reserve your own unit at North Fairway Homes in San Jose Del Monte, Bulacan.
 If you will avail the PAG- IBIG LOAN, please make sure to comply with these REQUIREMENTS TO BE SUBMITTED within 30 DAYS after you made your reservation.

 Image (c) Driven Real Estate Broker Ms.Diana Cabanag It was sometime in April 2015 when Ms.Janette Toral, my E-Commerce and CBSME mentor, asked me if I'm interested to try Property Blogging. I said yes and accepted the challenge. So far I'm enjoying the learning experience and I'm starting to reap some benefits too aside from the fact that I'm able to help Filipino families to find the right property for them.  1. INCREASE WEBSITE TRAFFIC - As of today, I can attribute 1/3 of my traffic from my house hopper blog page. It’s nice to see that my page visits and users are constantly increasing since I started property blogging over the summer. My organic and search engine referrals are also higher compared before. Why does it matter? Well, for those with Google Adsense and other ads on their blogs, you know that it can mean additional revenue when you rank higher because of your high traffic. My blog visitors are also checking different posts so they stay longer in my blog.  2. HOUSE INSPIRATION - I’ve visited more than 20 properties since I started my House Hopper blog page and I never thought that site trips would be that enriching. I love checking different house models especially the dressed-up unit where I get interior design inspirations. Somehow, it also reminded me of my childhood dream of becoming an engineer. Even though I didn’t pursue that track, I’m happy that because of property blogging, I get to visit construction sites, see different houses and buildings as if I’m their supervising engineer. hehe ;-)   3. PERKS & REWARDS - Yes, we all know that blogging is passion and being able to share our stories to others is already a rewarding experience but a big plus on the fact that you can earn from it too! Well, aside from the monetary reward, the fun and excitement during site trips are priceless. I also made new friends and learn more about other people like how they strive to have their own house. Sometimes, we also have fan mode moments. There was an instance we saw a celebrity outside her posh house when we visited an upscale community.
