Key points for Filipino Australians
- Dual citizenship (RA 9225) restores full Filipino property rights — including owning land and house-and-lot.
- Former Filipinos who haven't reacquired citizenship can still own condo units and, under Philippine law, limited residential land.
- A Special Power of Attorney lets family in the Philippines sign documents and inspect the unit for you.
- Plan for remittances: regular AUD → PHP transfers for monthly instalments.
