Lastly, if you want your housing loan to be approved, you need to show proofs (such as documents mentioned earlier) that you are capable to pay until your contract ends.
And for you to have easy loan approval, you must be suitable for these factors:

     At least 21-25 years old and not more than 65 years old at the time of loan maturity
     At least 30k – 50k Income
     Have worked for at least 2 years or more abroad
Yes, it may be a tough list and a lot of requirements to prepare but think about the chance of building your dream house that you will own for the rest of your life.

Invest in the important things first, and remember the saying “pandaliang pagtitiis para sa habang-buhay na ginhawa” (enduring patience for a lifelong relief).
