About Cabac
Cabac forms part of Daram's residential landscape in Samar. Residents benefit from the social cohesion of a barangay-scale community while having access to the wider city's commercial, medical, and educational amenities. The barangay shares Daram's overall market character, shaped by the city's position within Eastern Visayas (Region VIII). For OFW investors, Cabac in Daram represents a straightforward residential investment: single-family homes, townhouses, and affordable condominiums at accessible price points, with middle-income families and workers seeking affordable, accessible housing near employment as the likely tenant base. Pre-selling and RFO units are the most common purchase vehicles.
Location Details
Flood Risk
High Flood Risk
Buyers in Cabac should treat flood risk as a primary — not secondary — due diligence item. Daram carries a high flood-risk rating, and this barangay shares that profile. Request DRRMO flood history records, inspect drainage proximity, verify the property's floor level above the nearest waterway, and consider whether flood insurance is available.
Transport
Cabac connects to Daram's road network via barangay roads. Local transport — tricycles for last-mile access, jeepneys and UV Express vans for onward connections — serves the community. Commute time to Daram's commercial center ranges from 10–40 minutes depending on the barangay's distance from the main arterial road.
Amenities
Cabac maintains barangay-level services: health center, multi-purpose hall, and elementary school. The nearest public market, district hospital, high schools, and commercial centers are in Daram proper — the standard amenity pattern for barangays in this province.
Growth Potential
The established growth rating for Cabac indicates a market where demand comes from genuine end-users — local families, workers, and retirees — rather than investors chasing appreciation. This typically results in fair pricing and lower long-term vacancy risk for landlords.
