I wrote about this a few pages ago ..
Well, if you are buying for investment, forget it .. and if you are buying a property that is under construction, it is a calculated risk .. as most projects get delayed when they run out of money and the developers, being smart to exploit the PH Legal system, will stop work on one project and go to another one with not a worry..

Unless you will be staying here longterm and need a roof over your head.... then buy one though most expats would rather rent than buy.

Well, as a matter of fact, a friend bought 2 units in Shang, Mandaluyong .. and the rental was not even nice .. compared to the purchase price ..
And for a few months a year, he got like 80,000 peso per month, and mostly, empty ..
And .. the agents there are never in a rush to market your property, after all, why bother ? And not to offend anybody, the lazy bodies include Filipinos with Chinese surname .. and one too many of my friend thought Chinoys will be more active in marketing property - possibly as they make more $ from kababayans and those especially in ME, why go an extra mile to make more $ ??
Be happy with what you get , is their policy .. don't bother to do too much or earn too much money and pinoy pride plays a lot of part in that .. .
