Manila realtors: Finding a Trusted Agent that does the Heavy Lifting for YOU is Possible.
Manila Realtors While there is no shortage of realtors and brokers for apartments, homes and condominiums in Manila, it can be extremely difficult to sift through the abundance of people offering their services. Indeed, one can expect to meet people marketing property everywhere you go to include the malls, on the street and even tiny sari-sari stores. Even though a foreigner can own a property, if not the land outright, one can opt to rent in Manila for a month or up to a year and use that rental as a base for exploring this archipelago of over 7,000 islands without having to coordinate all the check-ins and checkouts and movement of belongings. Even if you are not intending to stay that long, the property can be relatively inexpensive to lease and if you set up the contract right, with a good realtor, associates of yours can utilize the place on their visits. 
Obviously, some hotels offer excellent amenities and are located adjacent to renowned attractions and you will expect to pay for that convenience.
So, consider following the KISS principle and stay in a basic accommodation, which frees up your budget to put toward travel, shopping and other activities. The following realtors can answer your questions and find win-win solutions for your housing requirements in Manila. Yes, many do advertise on ayosdito and other sites which you can search on for now.DMCI Homes: Jhen Raymundo. More coming soon!
Anne wrote on 8/26/2010 about the Rent Control Law and how it impacts Manila Real Estate. Here is an excerpt."In 2009, the Philippine governing administration released a different rent control regulation in the hope of preventing situations involving abusive land lords and extreme spikes in rental premiums for Manila apartments. The regulation covers any and all non commercial accommodations in Manila real estate with a regular rent of as much as P10, 000, and virtually all accommodations in various other urban areas asking for P5, 000 in rent payments every single month." Annual limits on rental increases were said to be set at 7% while the maximum advance asked for could be one month, though this did not address the deposit requirements and whether it compensated for this reduction.
