Plaridel, Bulacan: Commercial Lots and Houses North of Manila

Plaridel lies on the McArthur Highway corridor, with expressway access to Metro Manila. Baliuag, Marilao and San Jose del Monte are neighbouring Bulacan cities, Valenzuela is in Metro Manila, and San Fernando is in Pampanga. Tanza is in Cavite, south of Manila, so not nearby.

Foreigners cannot own land in the Philippines. They can own condominium units within a 40% foreign cap per project, and can lease land, generally for 25 years renewable once. A foreign-owned company may not hold land, so commercial lots usually require a Filipino-majority entity. Take local legal advice. See the Philippines guide and financing.

Philippine titles are Transfer Certificates of Title or Condominium Certificates of Title; ask the registry to confirm that they are clean. Commercial sites also need zoning clearance from the municipality and, for larger projects, environmental clearances. Floods affect low-lying parts of Bulacan, so check flood history and drainage. Keep in mind that the 33 commercial listings are not available to foreigners except through lease or a compliant structure.
