    Just a few personal thoughts and observations.......

    Buying a lot is fine but who does it revert to if it all goes wrong (not impossible)
    no 50/50 over there = she gets the lot and you will probably have to buy it in her name anyway
    you are a kanu with basically no rights there if it all goes wrong
    In this respect i feel that the renting option is a safer bet
    Renting a place is cheap anyway so why shell out all that money
    Buying a lot is going to benefit WHO

    The first golden rule of most of my ex pat friends in Dumaguete is no relatives allowed in
    their property
    Sounds harsh i know but there are good reasons for it

    IF it all goes wrong, well Emma gets everything that is in the phils, thats how it is, you have a great point in renting, we are looking at that also, i am old and wise enough to know that things can go wrong, but i am also with the opiniun that i will make sure it dont thats all we can hope for
