About Tontunan
Tontunan is a constituent barangay of Clarin in Misamis Occidental. Flood risk in this part of Clarin is moderate — buyers should verify the specific lot's drainage conditions.

Families, workers, and long-time residents seeking stable, accessible housing make up the dominant buyer segment in Tontunan. Available properties — house-and-lot units, townhouses, and low-rise condominiums at stable price points — are priced to reflect Clarin's broader market positioning within Misamis Occidental. Title verification at the local Registry of Deeds is an essential pre-purchase step.
