your wife would have to apply from the Phils
for a spouse settlement visa, the financial requirements are here ..

read specially from page 40 about cash saving, would your 5 properties in the Phils be worth over £62,500 if so this would probably be your best option
or if you did return to the UK and found a job you would need a income of £18.6K + or use your income from that and cash savings if needed
or you could go the EU route and move to a EU country find a job and apply for a family permit, then later on move to the UK, this way there is no financial requirement but you would need to be working for 3-6months in that EU country.
