BRIA Homes offers contemporary homes in many Laguna developments

Tweet

From the majestic Pagsanjan Falls to the enchanting Mt. Makiling, from grand old churches to famed historical sites such as the Rizal Shrine, some of Luzon’s top tourist draws are found in Laguna, a province southeast of Manila. Filipino families head for its hot springs, picturesque lakes, and nature-themed resorts for weekends of fun and relaxation, as do other travelers, locals and foreign guests alike. 

BRIA Homes now touts nine developments in the booming province of Laguna.

However, Laguna’s proximity to the metropolis has allowed it to prosper in terms of business and economy as well. Its commercial hubs such as Laguna Techno Park, and flourishing industries such as Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), marketing, and real estate, have consistently lured professionals seeking opportunities outside the big cities. 

Offering a balance of tranquility and modernity, Laguna has thus become a sought-after location for property investors. 

Fortunately, BRIA Homes, a leader in housing development, was among the first to acknowledge this and now touts nine developments in this booming province.

Why Home Renting Makes

Tweet

More and more people today are realizing the practical advantages of renting a home instead of buying one. Though they live different lifestyles, there are three possible reasons that compel them to rent rather than buy: they are just starting out; they have a tight budget; or they are about to face changes in finances or circumstances. 

Model Unit in Eton Tower Makati

If you are someone who needs a little more convincing as to which type of property you want to invest your hard-earned money in, consider the following reasons that explain why renting a home makes sense:

The location is already established

Homes for rent are in established locations where there are already thriving communities. All the home renters have to do is choose the one near their workplace, school, transportation hubs, commercial centers, or in places that matter to their current lifestyle. 

It gives freedom and flexibility

Renting a home means having a flexible alternative that caters to developing lifestyles. Since the homeowner is not tied down to one property and location, there are more options to live life just the way it goes, or adapt to unexpected changes as they come.

Savings from rental can be used for other investments

In renting, there is no need to shell out money for regular hefty real estate taxes that home buyers pay. Home renters can use the money instead for investing in stocks, mutual funds, foreign exchange, corporate bonds, cryptocurrency, or in a start-up business.

There is no maintenance cost

Tenants or home renters do not have to shoulder house repairs or maintenance expenses. Depending on the agreement, it is usually the owner who pays for those services. 

Reliable leasing partners are available

For those looking for a space to rent, there is a professional group called Dwellings by Eton for leasing services. It offers a program that is committed to ensure a stress-free and hassle-free experience for renters.

Amaia Land lights up the Christmas season with ‘Christmasaya sa Amaia’ fest

Tweet

The Philippines is touted to have the longest Yuletide celebration, with families putting up Christmas trees, lights, and all sorts of festive décor as early as the first ‘ber’ month. And now that the “most wonderful time of the year” is upon us, top-of-mind real estate provider Amaia Land is doing its part to make Christmas merry and bright by mounting a flurry of activities for its residents. 

Dubbed as “Christmasaya sa Amaia,” the celebration will feature fun competitions like the “Star of Hope” and “A Carol for Christmas”—and the lighting up of Christmas Trees in select Amaia communities nationwide.

“Star of Hope” is a parol or lantern-making contest open to barangays. To promote resourcefulness, creativity, and a regard for the environment, all Star of Hope entries should be made of recycled materials. 

Each participating barangay may submit only one Star of Hope entry. Registration of interested parties is ongoing until Dec. 1, with the first 15 entries qualifying for the final judging. 

“A Carol for Christmas,” meanwhile, is a singing competition open to church choir members with the goal of creating original Christmas music or doing unique renditions of Christmas songs that are inspired by the theme, “Christmasaya.” 

Registration for A Christmas Carol is ongoing until Dec. 1, with each church limited to fielding only one participating choir group.

To wrap up its Yuletide agenda, Amaia Land is likewise lighting up a 20-feet-tall, fully decorated Christmas tree at Amaia Steps Sucat and Amaia Scapes Iloilo.

According to Sixto Sengson of Amaia Land, ‘Christmasaya sa Amaia’ was conceptualized as a visual and auditory feast that would help foster a sense of camaraderie and community among Amaia homeowners and residents of neighboring barangays. 

“By spreading holiday cheer,” Sengson said, “Filipino families will have a more meaningful celebration of this truly special season. And ‘Christmasaya sa Amaia’ wants to encourage everyone to do just that—to get together with family and friends, all in one thriving community.”

Amaia Scapes North Luzon treats guests to soothing ‘acoustic evenings’

Tweet

Soothing acoustic music, good company, and the chilly breeze of a “ber” month—all these under a starlit sky. Such was the mesmerizing scenario when Amaia Scapes projects North of Manila held their acoustic evenings last October 8, 15 and 21. 

Amaia Land held “acoustic evenings” at Amaia Scapes Bulacan, San Fernando, Capas, Tarlac, Urdaneta and Cabanatuan for residents and guests. . 

To let prospective homeowners experience firsthand the comfortable, relaxed, and homey lifestyle that Amaia Scapes offers, acoustic nights were held at Amaia Scapes in Bulacan; San Fernando City, Pampanga; Capas, Tarlac; Urdaneta, Pangasinan and Cabanatuan City, Nueva Ecija. 

Ching Higino, North Luzon’s regional sales head, warmly welcomed all guests at the events. According to her, Amaia Land wanted to provide clients with “a more pleasurable buying experience” by treating them to acoustic performances, which is seldom held in the provinces. 

“Unlike other Amaia events that are usually held during the day, we thought of having acoustic evenings to give clients a taste of the fun and convivial environment of Amaia Scapes,” she said. 

The acoustic evenings entertained guests and their families—all from nearby towns—and showed how Amaia Land cares for ordinary Filipinos, even before they become Amaia residents. 

This aligns with Amaia Land’s desire to accomplish its vision of providing affordable and high-quality residential homes to the average Filipino—teachers, small business owners, government employees, and start-up families. And Amaia Scapes properties are the fulfillment of this vision. 

As they empower people to attain their dream of having homes of their own, Amaia Scapes touts the convenience and ease of being located near transportation and commercial hubs. 

Amaia Scapes Bulacan enjoys a strategic location at the heart of Sta. Maria, Bulacan, placing the property close to commercial establishments and transport hubs. 

All residential units in Amaia Scapes are smartly designed, spacious and well-built, and feature one-of-a-kind community concepts tailored for Filipino families. Amaia homes are affrded provisions for expansion to adjust to the various lifestyles of growing families. Home owners may build additional space at the ground floor or heighten up by adding an upper floor.

To ensure safety and security in all Amaia Scapes projects, the properties are managed by Ayala Property Management Corp. (APMC). 

Lastly, Amaia Land places your dream Amaia Scapes home within reach with its easy-on-the-pocket and flexible payment options.

Amaia Scapes Urdaneta, offering innovative residential units with an array of amenities, is set in Urdaneta City in Pangasinan, with 849 house-and-lot units spread acros 14.8 hectares of land. 

All aspiring homeowners are free to join Amaia Scapes events and witness firsthand the promise of a better living experience. For inquiries, check out Amaia booths in provincial malls and sales offices.

Thousands of youth in Philippines to join regional Habitat for Humanity Young Leaders Build campaign

Tweet

Annual campaign rallies young people to speak out, raise funds and build decent homes

Housing organization, Habitat for Humanity Philippines (HFHP), announces today its 2017 launch of Young Leaders Build. The campaign is Habitat’s largest youth movement in the Asia-Pacific region. Organized for the sixth consecutive year, the regional campaign is driven by dynamic and socially responsible youth to ensure decent housing for all in a region where one in eight people live in slums, according to the United Nations. 

The Philippines is currently facing a housing crisis with 5.5 million Filipino families lacking access to their own safe, decent home. 

“At Habitat, we aim to serve these families in need by partnering with others to build better communities, and a better nation – together. We believe the best way to face this crisis is work alongside the next generation of empowered youth leaders who are socially conscious and energetic to volunteer, fundraise and advocate for poverty alleviation,” Charlie Ayco, HFHP Managing Director and CEO said. 

HFHP has engaged more than 1.2 million volunteers in the past fiscal year, which garnered more than 2.5 million volunteer hours and the organization looks forward to engaging even more youth volunteers through the Young Leaders Build campaign in the coming months. 

The Young Leaders Build was first pioneered more than a decade ago by Alexandra Eduque, Founder and Chairwoman of the Habitat Youth Council, who kick-started the project as a national effort. Now, due to the campaign’s successes, it is now a global youth movement. 

“We look forward to this years Young Leaders Build to be more empowering to the youth and more transforming for the families and communities we serve,” Ayco added. 

In the coming months, youth, celebrities, schools and corporate supporters will volunteer, raise funds and lend their voices to help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Events planned across the region include workshops, rallies, runs, volunteer trips, a youth forum, an advocacy grant program and a Twitter party.

The multi-month Young Leaders Build campaign will culminate on 22 April 2017 with thousands of young people taking part in simultaneous activities across Asia-Pacific. These include house building, school cleaning, fundraising events, and advocating for decent housing on social media.

The campaign in the past year (2016 campaign video link) saw a record 2,448,914 supporters from 16 countries and one Special Administrative Region in the Asia-Pacific region. Volunteers worked on 420 houses, and served 7,620 families. The campaign raised US$ 1.6 million to enable families to have a decent place to live.

NorthPine Land: Where dreams come to life

Tweet

It is every hardworking Filipino’s dream to have a house he can call his own. NorthPine Land, Inc. (NLI), one of the leading and most trusted real estate companies in the Philippines, has committed to provide homes and purposeful areas that improve the quality of life. More than a good house, NorthPine Land builds better homes. More than a good neighborhood, it creates better communities. More than a good area to stay, they make a better place of comfort and security for the whole family.

NorthPine Land has established its own niche in the middle income housing market in the country since it was founded in 1996 as a joint venture of four leading companies. Hongkong Land, one of Asia’s leading property investment, management and development groups, partnered with local investors San Miguel Properties, the real estate arm of San Miguel Group; BDO and Metrobank, the country’s largest and leading commercial banks. 

NLI President Alan R. Cruz affirms the company’s commitment to give people who strive to own their dream home the quality of life that only an integrated self-contained community can provide. 

Cruz said, “NorthPine Land defines the ideals of fine living on five foundations namely design, quality construction, lifestyle amenities, continuing estate management, and value.”

In the most recent Housing Preference and Affordability Survey (HPAS) released by the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC), 82% of the total 4,725 families surveyed prefer to own a house and lot compared to only 2% to those who choose a tenement or condominium unit.

People opt to purchase a house and lot than a condo unit because they have exclusive rights to property; gives them the liberty to design or renovate the indoor and outdoor space any way they want; and it makes a good long-term investment or something they can pass on to their family. The fact that more families dream of owning house and lots over condos is part of the reasons why NorthPine prefers horizontal developments.

Through the years, NorthPine Land has built a solid reputation for distinction, quality, and value for money. The company continues to bring high-quality yet reasonable residential properties in the Philippines with several ongoing horizontal developments. 

Greenwoods Village is a 80-hectare Mediterranean-themed development considered as NorthPine Land’s largest housing project to date. Wind Crest, which boasts Modern-American Country style houses, is a stunning 5-hectare space located within the thriving community of Greenwoods. Kahaya Place, a splendid Modern-Asian space, is NorthPine Land’s latest townhouse project with hassle-free access to daily destinations such as schools, government offices, business districts and malls. All three properties are located at the booming city of Dasmariñas, Cavite. Just a few kilometers away is Kohana Grove which is comprised of 8 hectares of Modern Asian-inspired properties and a close neighbor of Tagaytay, renowned for its cool climate. 

Other quality developments of NorthPine Land are the 10-hectare tropicalized American Country-themed Forest Ridge in San Isidro, Antipolo City which has a commanding view of the city despite being only 45 minutes away from Manila; the 5-hectare Victorian-inspired South Hampton situated at Sta. Rosa, Laguna.

Within these communities, NorthPine Land also offers line of trade and commercial areas called NorthPine Spaces. For each horizontal development, NorthPine Spaces features retail slots suited to accommodate the community’s basic daily needs. One can experience the convenience of NorthPine Spaces at the Village Square (Greenwoods), Forest Ridge Lane (Forest Ridge) & Hampton Royale (South Hampton).

The company also developed Lexington, a joint venture with Greenfield Development Corporation. This 8-hectare master planned community in Pasig City is composed of single detached homes. Lexington has been completely sold out since 2008.

Cruz emphasized, “NorthPine Land espouses excellence and customer satisfaction across the company and its portfolio of prestigious projects. It is strongly committed to making dreams come true by providing homes and purposeful areas that improve the way you live your life.”

With companies like NorthPine Land that are committed to providing quality homes to those who work hard for a better future, dreams will come to life.

Antipolo Home in the Heart of the City

Tweet

Antipolo, traditionally known as the Pilgrimage City of the Philippines, popular among contemplatives wishing to retreat from the hustle and bustle of downtown Manila.

Its locally grown mangoes and cashews are popular among tourists, as well as suman – a local delicacy made out of glutinous rice. The Hinulugang Taktak National Park, which was once a popular summer get-away is being restored to become again one of the city's primary attractions.

I joined last weekend the Vista Land Site Appreciation Tour in Antipolo, Rizal. 

Antipolo lies on part of the Sierra Madre mountain range, putting it at a significantly higher altitude than Manila.

This makes Antipolo a good place from which to view the metropolis. Its higher elevation than that of Metro Manila affords it a scenic view of the metropolis, especially at night. 

Antipolo City has become quite famous among tourists and expatriates, and has also become a preferred residential choice among artist types.
