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.
