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.
