From there you can see the available condos in GREEN, click on the unit and see more details including sales price and payment term options. Our office is available Monday to Saturday to schedule a visit.

2. Once you have decided on your unit, it’s time to let us know and reserve your new condo. To do that you will need a “Letter of Intent”. Click HERE to get a sample letter of intent. You will need to provide a minimum of 10% Earnest Money Deposit in order to reserve a condo. You can also choose your time-frame for completing the purchase, signing the leasehold, and taking possession of your unit.

3. You complete the payment terms.

Yes, we can accept installment payments up to 2 years, but we will require more than 10% deposit. For example, in order to pay for your apartment in monthly installments over 2 years, would require at least a 20% deposit.

Bohol Jewel consists of 44 one-bedroom condos. They have the same layout including a living room, kitchen, large bathroom, and balcony.

Generally you can take possession of the unit when the the leasehold contract is signed. In some cases when an installment has been agreed to, you may be able to start using your condo sooner.

Yes, condos can be resold at any time. There are some rules for reselling such as providing Bohol Jewel Corporation a “right of first refusal”. Many condos have transferred successfully and for a higher price. If you decide to sell, we can help by posting it for you on this page and the unit will show as green.

Yes. In the Philippines, foreigners are not allowed to own property. But they can own an condo in a residential property like Bohol Jewel Residences. In our case, the condos are available with a leasehold agreement. This leasehold ownership is a common practice in the Philippines and has worked in the interest of foreigners for decades. The ownership is entirely in the name of the foreigner and can be transferred (sold) at any time.

Yes. Bohol is a favorite vacation destination for over 1 million visitors per year. If you don’t use your condo all year-around, you can rent it our either short-term, or long-term. Our front desk can even assist with the management of your apartment if you want us to and we can add it to our resort inventory. Or you can rent it yourself. This makes owning a condo at Bohol Jewel a profitable investment.

The monthly fees per apartment are 4,000 pesos per month. This pays for swimming pool and garden maintenance, common areas, security guards, trash pickup, property taxes, and more.

Each apartment has it’s own meters and is responsible to pay for their electric and water usage. Utilities can range from 500 to 5,000 pesos per month, depending on usage.

Yes, it is first come, first serve. We don’t have designated spaces for certain units. We have an overflow parking in the lot next door. We also offer long term parking if you will be leaving your vehicle for an extended time. Please inquire for details.

We can accept deposits to our bank account, payments in cash at the front desk, or using services like Gcash, Pesonet, or Maya. For international payments, we recommend Wise.com. You can also use Worldremit, Western Union, or Moneygram among others. We also accept credit cards but there may be an extra fee for credit card payments.

Even Paradise must have rules. We have quiet hours, and things that are not allowed in the community in order to provide the maximum enjoyment by everyone. Please review the House Rules here.

We are not allowed by law to lease a property for more than 50 years. At the end of the 50 years we could enter into a new agreement or you can decide not to extend. It’s also possible the laws change in the Philippines and foreigners are given more leeway. We will remain pro-active and always put forth the best interests of the owners.
