Philippines Real Estate

Displaying 1 - 6 of 8

With the Covid-19 pandemic inducing a significant shift towards working from home as companies maintain social distancing, in the Philippines co-working spaces are emerging as a solution for firms seeking to decentralise while ensuring a sound operating environment for employees.

Strong economic growth in the Philippines is driving demand in the real estate market, placing prime office space at a premium, with little indication that appetite will wane despite growing supply in Manila and Cebu. 

Underpinned by growing demand from low-cost buyers and high-end renters in Manila, the residential real estate market in the Philippines has posted strong figures in 2015 year-to-date. With vacancy rates falling and rentals on the rise, the sector is poised to maintain an upward trajectory into 2016. 

A year of strong economic growth and high foreign direct investment (FDI) in the Philippines has set the scene for a wave of new real estate activity during 2014.
Demand for housing and office space in the Philippines is expected to remain high on the back of impressive economic growth. Despite an increase in new space, property developers expect vacancies in premium residential and office space across business districts to remain scarce.
A surge in bank lending to the Philippines’ real estate sector is indicative of the market’s potential in a favourable environment of low interest rates and strong economic growth. The central bank is keeping a watchful eye on the market, and may move to tighten regulations if it feels an asset bubble is forming. However, real demand seems strong enough to maintain momentum despite an increase in speculation.
