If you don't plan or need to get married, foreigners are allowed to own condominiums, I would pay your girl friend and one of her male family members to work out the negotiations unless another expat can recommend a realtor, I don't talk or deal with them, not anymore---long story but it ended badly.Actually, I would not want to do that, but I do have a girlfriend that I would want to be with forever; but things can change that you may not anticipate.....
The condo usually requires almost a 50% down payment and then payments from 2-4 years they start out in my area at 999,000 Peso's, Manila is going to be much higher or anywhere close to Manila, it all looks the same to me and it's very crowded.
