after Ondoy calamity ...

As I've shared here at my blog a month ago, after the Ondoy calamity we temporarily rented a condo unit near to the kids's school. Not that we were affected by flood, but primarily due to travel convenience. You see, with all the streets submerged with flood water, it was impossible for us to commuete to and from our work. Very inconvenient if you have kids needed to be at school by 730am, as well as if you have work and meetings as early as 9am. Hence, we were forced to enter a lease contract for 2 months at a brand new condo inside the San Antonio Village. Sadly, with the Ondoy floods over after a week ... we were stuck with our condo lease contract.
But we were lucky. Just early today, a very good friend of us saved us for another one month rental. He needed a short term place to stay since he's on a business trip and be back by 2nd week of December in Canada. He checked the condo earlier, and was pleased with what he saw, and decided to move-in immediately. He brought all his things, clothes, appliance such as his brand new plasma TV with plasma mounts and even his computer gadgets. And presto, he's already at home with our condo unit.
Now the husband is seriously considering investing in a rent-to-own condo units. Probably for business use, such as short term lease or for emergency purposes. We realized now the value of having another place to stay for emergency cases. Really convenient and the peace of mind...priceless. Not bad idea eh, better be prepared for the worst and be safe than sorry. Don't you agree?
