BRIA Homes and the Year That Was

BRIA Homes made the year 2022
a banner year for the company.

In the Philippines and elsewhere in the world, each new calendar year brings fresh resolve to make worthwhile changes in life—from upgrading one’s domicile to recharging career goals. These were sectors in which top-tier residential property developer BRIA Homes excelled, making the year 2022 a banner year for the company.

To start with, it was the year when BRIA further affirmed its status as the most trusted provider of affordable homes in the Philippines. At no time was this more evident than when BRIA was on a roll, building comfortable, well-designed housing units in multiple projects nationwide, while making homeownership more accessible for the average Filipino.

The visibly excited new BRIA residents checked
 out the residential community they will now call home.

Bouncing back from disruptions spawned by a two-year health crisis, BRIA Homes is fast making up for lost time with a spate of on-ground activities that include open houses, groundbreaking events, and project launches. Indeed, at the rate BRIA is moving forward, it looks like nothing can come between the dynamic home builder and its goal of making sturdily built and well-designed homes accessible to more Filipinos all over the country.

 

Attesting to this singular drive is BRIA Homes’ recent mass turnover event during which the company rolled out the welcome mat to almost fifty new homeowners at BRIA Manolo Fortich in Bukidnon, a landlocked province in Northern Mindanao.

Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway Seen to Increase Property Value Appreciation of BRIA Condo Mactan

The Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway connects
mainland Cebu to Cordova town.

As the country enters a new chapter in its history, widely acknowledged as the outgoing administration’s centerpiece program is its Build, Build, Build (BBB) initiative, which was envisioned to usher in the “Golden Age of Infrastructure” in the Philippines. To date, BBB infrastructure projects have opened new expressways and road networks that reduce travel time around the regions. Long, massive bridges now connect islands, cities, and provinces in the archipelago. 

One recently completed infrastructure development is the Cebu-Cordova Link Expressway (CCLEX), which connects mainland Cebu to Cordova town in Mactan Island. Soon to be part of Cebu’s iconic landmarks, the CCLEX is an 8.9-kilometer toll bridge expressway that can serve at least 50,000 vehicles on a daily basis. The CCLEX is expected to decongest traffic in the two other existing bridges, immensely benefitting business and commerce in Cebu and throughout the Visayas Region. 

BRIA homeowners to benefit from North-South Commuter Railway

Filipinos seeking contemporary homes located in
progressive areas in the Philippines can visit
the BRIA website and check out units via virtual tours.

Any real estate professional will tell you that the single most important factor that drives value appreciation of a property is location. It is also its biggest selling point. Home seekers want to know: Is the property along a national road? Is it close to transport hubs? Does it have proximity to retail stores, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment centers? Are there reputable schools, hospitals, and churches a short ride away? Does it have access to green spaces and nature views?

Most trusted home builders are well aware of the pivotal role that location plays in selling houses and condominium units. This is why apart from building their projects within driving distance or easy commutes to key lifestyle destinations, BRIA Homes considers its future residents’ proximity to neighboring towns and cities, especially to the metropolis and its suburban neighborhoods. 

Property Value in BRIA Magalang Up By 28 Percent

BRIA’s strategic locations, translate into
long-term stability and consistency.

Although the country’s Covid-19 response is making great strides through its intensified vaccination drives, the constant threat of new Covid variants is a cause of concern. While the Philippine economy is still in a state of flux, property investments continue to give value over time, proof that real estate is a fine-performing asset class that rides out crises and economic cycles.

Proudly leading the pack, BRIA Homes is one trusted property developer that offers spacious and well-designed contemporary homes in over 50 towns and cities in Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao. This vast range of choices, along with their strategic locations, translate into long-term stability and consistency, factors that augur well for property investors’ money. 

Indeed, despite the challenges brought on by the pandemic, BRIA Homes provides residential properties that continue to create value for homebuyers and investors. From each individual house’s cleverly laid-out living spaces to the residential community’s recreational amenities and security features, BRIA Homes serves not only Filipinos’ basic need for shelter but also their aspirations for a stable future.

 Trusted homebuilder BRIA Homes continues to
provide top quality homes of choice to Filipinos nationwide.

Each new calendar year brings fresh resolve and determination to make changes in one’s life—from recharging career goals to upgrading to a new residence. With the pandemic now seen as a manageable threat, it’s no surprise that people are looking forward to a more productive and stable 2022. 

One big step that they may undertake is buying their very first home. While finding a cozy and comfortable place to live is quite easily the goal, the search for it can be an exciting but specially challenging experience. Prospective homebuyers do not wake up one day and decide to invest their savings in the first house they like. There are key factors in the planning process such as location, affordability, and commitment.

BRIA Homes Hosts Free Webinars for Our Kababayang OFWs

Our kababayang OFWs benefitted from the expertise 

and experience of special guest speaker Marissa del Mar.

In the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, one of the more seriously affected sectors are the Overseas Filipino Workers (OFW), who have long been acknowledged as the economic heroes of the country. OFWs, estimated to number 2.566 million are responsible for a total of $20.38 billion in remittances for the first nine months of 2021, an important lifeline in a developing country such as the Philippines. 

However, while global travel restrictions remain fluid, altering or even impeding their long-planned homecoming events, OFWs are being encouraged to direct their energies towards a positive goal: achieving and sustaining financial health. Many are now learning that they can provide for their families—and contribute to the Philippine economy—even as they go from being spenders to being savers and investors.

Cebu Infrastructures to Drive Value Appreciation in BRIA Homes

Aside from well-designed house-and-lot units,
BRIA Homes Danao offers sports and recreational
facilities, 24-hour security and eco-friendly spaces. 

The Philippines, being an achipelago, is a group of strikingly beautiful islands, each with a distinct charm as a travel destination and as a place to lay down roots. In the past, the long trips to and around these isles were surely part of their allure; the same factors, however, also served as costly deterrents to their growth and progress. That is, until the current administration pushed its massive Build, Build, Build program, part of which has been primed to benefit the province of Cebu.

With ongoing government infrastructure projects set for completion in the forthcoming months, Cebu is now considered by property developers as a viable location for their projects. Among the first to maximize this positive trend, BRIA Homes has rolled out BRIA Homes Danao and BRIA Condo Mactan, two properties in its portfolio that have optimum potential for future value appreciation.

BRIA Homes eyes stronger VisMin presence in its portfolio of residential developments

With such buoyant prospects for VisMin, BRIA Homes,
one of the country’s top developers of best-value housing,
 has bolstered its presence in these regions

In the past, one prevailing socioeconomic myth held the idea that all roads led to bustling Metro Manila, where bountiful employment and business opportunities awaited ambitious and hardworking Filipinos. Tiny as the Philippine archipelago is, Visayas and Mindanao used to be considered as trailing behind the National Capital Region in terms of progress and development. 

Fast-forward to the present times, nothing could be further from the truth. Business and industry have fast acknowledged the tremendous potential that VisMin offers, making it a much-coveted region for both government and private sector investments. With Visayas and Mindanao as hosts to some of the country’s most fascinating and culturally diverse places, the region is developing into a center for agro trade and world-class tourism, providing a plethora of employment opportunities to local Visayans, Mindanaoans and Filipino migrants who have set up roots in the South. 

Leading housing developer BRIA Homes to hold Virtual Nationwide PlanTahanan Day

Top housing developer BRIA Homes is set to hold a
nationwide event called the Virtual Nationwide PlanTahanan Day
 on June 30, 2021, at 10 a.m., on BRIA’s official Facebook page.

Leading property developer BRIA Homes, the brand that fosters sustainable living among its residents and homeowners, is mounting a nationwide virtual event called Virtual Nationwide PlanTahanan Day on June 30, 2021, at 10 a.m., on the BRIA Homes official Facebook Page. 

BRIA’s annual PlanTahanan Day initiative aims to promote a positive environmental impact through the following themes: sustainability, relevance of wide open spaces, and the benefits of trees.  

Sustainability, which basically means managing our natural resources to ensure a healthy environment for future generations, is a recurring subject in all discussions about environmental awareness. On PlanTahanan Day, BRIA will enable participants at the virtual event to explore everyday habits that reduce their ecological footprints such as reusing and recycling, supporting local economies, eliminating plastic wastes, planting tress, and using mass transit—instead of driving—to nearby destinations. 

BRIA Homes’ Astra Vertical Villages to address Filipino millennials’ demand for affordable condominiums

Young Filipinos would do well to check out BRIA Homes’\
 Astra Vertical Villages, the leading housing developer’s
 newly launched affordable condominiums.

Millennial Filipinos, or Filipinos born between 1981 to 1996, are ticking one ‘adulting’ goal after the other. While some aspire to start a family, most young professionals are focused on their careers, preferring to slug it out in highly competitive workplaces and earn fat paychecks in the process. This often results in substantial savings that, in the past, they would splurge in travel and leisure pursuits, the latest gadgets, or even brand-new cars. 

However, the corona virus pandemic has reportedly changed millennials’ spending patterns—for the better. With health protocols restricting their social lives and putting a damper on their travel plans, young adults—aged 20 to 30—are now investing their money in property. Real estate experts affirm this, crediting the positive trend to attractive payment terms offered by developers and the new flexible work arrangements. 

BRIA Homes to Sustain Technology Adoption and Digitalization

BRIA Homes persists in highlighting their property 
management with a continuous adoption of technology
 in doing business.

Filipinos are known for their resilience and their ability to adapt to crises. This is how they survived—and even thrived—during the country’s most trying year in recent memory. Displaying the same grit and tenacity moving forward, they continue to place home and hearth in the forefront. 

BRIA Homes understands this. It also acknowledges how Filipinos have always been about providing for and protecting their families. Thus, an essential need for them is a comfortable home and—under current circustances—a safe haven for their loved ones. This is why for the longest time, BRIA has resolutely provided solidly built, stylish, and affordable houses and lots to Filipinos in safe and secure BRIA housing developments across the country. 

BRIA Homes offers contemporary homes in many Laguna developments

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

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.

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. 

BRIA Homes continues to show resilience amid the challenges of 2020

Filipinos dream of moving into affordable houses 
and lots in residential projects that offer security and stability.

As the year 2020 rolls towards the end, we look back at the incredibly challenging times our country—and people—have endured in the past months: from the phreatic eruption of Taal Volcano to the ongoing Coronavirus-2019 pandemic to the series of super typhoons that recently ravaged regions that stood in their path.

However, despite the global contagion causing major disruptions in businesses and industries, we are gratified to note that some sectors have readily bounced back, with a few finding new opportunities in the crisis.

The Philippine real estate industry is one. Reports from the ground disclose that homebuilders that quickly adjusted to marketing innovations have remained relatively stable. Industry resilience is likewise credited to low interest rates and the Filipinos’ constant pursuit of their dream home. This affirms that residential properties are secure, tangible assets that are resistant to the whims of the times, including pandemics and weather disturbances. 

BRIA Homes expands its portfolio of product lines to provide homes to more Filipinos

BRIA stays true to its efficient formula: 
Affordability (Mura) + Quality (Dekalidad)
 = A Beautiful BRIA Home for Every Filipino.

For Filipinos, the concept of home has always been close to the heart. We relate homes to happy days spent with family, to times when we realize our greatest hopes and dreams, and to moments when we feel most comfortable and secure. It is in our homes when we feel most vulnerable, but also most loved. 

This is why for a lot of Filipinos, having their own home is the ultimate achievement—the best reward for all their hard work. 

Today, as Filipino families adapt to unprecedented changes brought about by the pandemic, the home has assumed an even more vital role in their everyday lives. It is no longer just a place of refuge; it has become an environment for learning and for work or business. More than ever, there is a need for well-designed homes with ample spaces, situated in safe and secure communities. 

BRIA Homes completes construction of five properties in Calamba, Cavite, South Cotabato and Negros Oriental

BRIA Homes notes that there is a significant demand 
for residential properties in the provinces, 
a development that has spurred the leading property 
developer to move forward with its projects in Laguna, 
Cavite, South Cotabato, and Negros Occidental.

Prospective buyers looking to check out BRIA units can do so through BRIA Homes’ virtual trips and virtual open house events. Undeterred by the challenges posed by a global pandemic, the Philippine property market continues to see an uptick in residential real estate sales. This highly encouraging trend spurs leading property developer BRIA Homes to keep on moving forward with its many projects in several towns and cities in the Philippines. But with Metro Manila becoming increasingly congested, BRIA notes that there is a significant demand for residential properties in provinces that are deemed safer as the contagion continues to ravage the big cities.

BRIA Homes shares safety tips during ‘enhanced community quarantine’

To help contain the Covid-19 pandemic, the national government has placed the entire Luzon under ‘enhanced community quarantine,’ which requires enforcing stringent safety protocols in towns and cities all over the region. To date, malls and other commercial establishments have been temporarily closed; all means of public transport have been suspended; and provision of food and essential services is being regulated. Although groceries, banks, and pharmacies remain open, social distancing is strictly observed in their premises. 

BRIA Homes offers modern communities in progressive Batangas

The BRIA Lipa and BRIA Balayan projects in Batangas
are a top draw for Filipinos—both locals and migrants—who
 see the province as an idyllic place to live or work in. 

Batangas, a province that is famous for its old churches, heritage sites, affordable beach resorts and dive spots, and adventure sports, is currently on the rise as a prime location for business and residential communities. Less than two hours’ drive south of Metro-Manila, Batangas has, in fact, become a top draw for Filipinos—both locals and migrants—who see the province as an idyllic place to live or retire in. 

In a move to bolster mobility for travelers, the government’s bold infrastructure programs are currently in place. Once fully completed, the new road networks will make life easier for Filipinos in terms of traveling to Batangas from any point in Luzon.
