Find the ideal property for you with easy-to-use proptech platform Ohmyhome

Property seekers can now search for the property they 
want and need—and transact housing services
—through proptech startup Ohmyhome, 
which recently launched its one-stop-shop
 digital platform in the Philippines

When Ohmyhome, Singapore’s market leader in property solutions platforms expanded into the Philippines in September, it saw that the demand for residential properties had remained strong amidst the pandemic. This means that despite the global health crisis randomly affecting the real estate market, there is still a significant interest in residential properties.

Before the pandemic, Filipino property seekers looked for good design, strategic location, and modern facilities in prospective homes. Now, with quarantine constraints still in place, the priority is for stable and secure bases for learning and working from home. 

Race Wong, Chief Product Officer and Co-Founder of Ohmyhome, explains the shift in buyer preferences: “While property seekers are still looking at houses located near commercial or urbanized districts, there is an increase in prospective homeowners looking at properties outside Metro Manila, due to the changes and increased flexibility in work and study arrangements”

RE/MAX: The game is about to change

When you are starting a business, it is preferable to go for an international franchise because it is tried and tested not only in the Philippine setting but in other countries as well.

What RE/MAX, the world's top real estate franchise, brings to the table is what is known in the industry as the "Power of 8," which is made up of the company's core strengths.

The Power of the RE/MAX Name means the franchisee will have a brand with credibility to help him or her sell real estate. RE/MAX, a Denver-based company founded by Dave and Gail Liniger in 1973, is the #1 Global Real Estate Franchise in the world. It is also the top real estate franchise in Entrepreneur Magazine's Franchise 500 and the leading real estate franchise on Franchise Times' Top 200. Last year, Entrepreneur Magazine named RE/MAX the #12 Global Franchise.

RE/MAX: A new concept that benefits consumers

RE/MAX, the world's highest-rating franchise, has changed the real estate sector in the Philippines by providing more options to people looking for property to own or lease.

For brokers, it means a more professional approach to doing business. 

"Our people aren't just in it for the money. They love what they are doing and are looking forward to what happens every day. They don't just have jobs. They have careers," explains RE/MAX Philippines country manager Michelle Perlas.

But the biggest benefit of RE/MAX being in the Philippines, according to Perlas, is felt by consumers.
