Review of "Property, Product and Service for Rent!"

Filipino expatriates and overseas contract workers are popularly called by their foreign counterparts as "Pilipino" or "Pinoy." The tenant is a person who rents land or property from his landlord. The tenant is the master of a place he does not own but occupies based on lease agreement with the owner. The tenant may also be a paying customer of any service or product provided to him by other person, groups or establishments – with contract done verbally or in written agreement. Whether the tenant leases a certain property or product, or avails a distinct service, he is otherwise known as the renter.

In the Philippines, majority of its people - specially the middle class and the poor do not own their own houses or lots. They live in apartment lots, or houses and lots, and some live on shanties with monthly rental payments. Almost everything a person needs—if you cannot afford to buy it, you can rent it. Need a vehicle to pick-up an arriving OCW family member or relative at the airport? Rent a jeep or an FX van. There's a family celebration but you do not own nice TV and sound system at home? Rent a videoke machine with TV. Need also additional tables and chairs on family occasions with many invited guests? Rent monobloc tables and chairs.

Need to attend the wedding of a close friend or relative but do not have fine dress? Rent a barong or a gown, and even shoes and jewelries if you desire. Need to fix something in your house? Hire a skilled tradesman. Or do you want some savings in hiring tradesmen because you have the skill and know-how in carpentry, or plumbing or electrical but do not have the tools? Rent them. Even to people looking for some personal entertainment and leisure, they can avail the services provided by malls, movie houses, theatres, sports clubs, recreation centers, night clubs, discos, massage parlors and spas. Through this blog, Pinoy Tenant will share his experiences and views, thoughts and feelings on anything that can be availed for a fee, or on anything for rent in the Philippines – and even abroad.

Pinoy Tenant proudly presents this blog as a consumer's review page of anything cool and interesting to rent, or buy, or avail, or simply admire - whether property, product, or service, or be inspired by the people and the stories behind the success of such property, product or service as successful project, undertaking or business.
