After forty-seven years of rent increases, sold buildings, and eviction notices in someone else's font, retired law librarian Rosalind Fenwick used her $1,050 Social Security check and a defined slice of her savings to buy a small three-unit building near a university in Dumaguete City — and became a landlord for the first time in her life. This is the story of a lifelong tenant who finally stopped waiting for the letter and started writing it herself.
This is a dramatized retirement story based on the real trend of Western retirees relocating to the Philippines. Cost figures reflect publicly reported ranges.
