Secure your future: Why you need to start investing in real estate now

Colliers Philippines reported that the real estate market in the Philippines is showing signs of a robust recovery in 2024, indicating the market is well-positioned for growth. Industry experts also suggest that 2024 is an ideal year to invest in the Philippine real estate market due to the country’s solid economic performance, strategic developments in townships, and attractive luxury property prices that make it appealing to investors.

However, it’s not just the savvy long-time investors grabbing the opportunities. An insurance company reported that more young Filipinos have been investing for their future as the pandemic helped them realize its importance. Market research agency Kadence International echoed a similar sentiment, noting that younger Filipinos now see real estate as a legacy asset and investment opportunity, opting for condominiums in city centers due to proximity to offices, retail establishments, and the appeal of modern, minimalist designs.

But what’s in it for you if you start investing now?

Prime location with amenities

With the traffic congestion in the metro, many opt for other major business districts like Alabang. In particular, Filinvest City in Alabang has grown to be the preferred central business district in the metro south.

Young professionals get to have the live-work-play-thrive experience in the masterplanned community of Filinvest City, which provides convenient access to key establishments, such as retail and dining centers, healthcare facilities, and green open spaces for a vibrant and integrated business environment. Moreover, it offers easy access to both the south and the north, and is close to major roads like Skyway and South Luzon Expressway (SLEX).

Studio N, developed by Filinvest Land, Inc. in Filinvest City, is a perfect example of a prime investment opportunity. Situated in Northgate Cyberzone, the residential project is near local and multinational companies. Commercial hubs like Westgate Center and Festival Mall and parks such as Central Park and Spectrum Linear Park are just a couple of minutes away.

Studio N also offers essential and modern amenities fit for an urban lifestyle. There is a spacious and relaxing lobby area where residents and guests can lounge, a centralized mail room with individual mailboxes, a swimming pool with a kiddie pool where you can unwind after a long day, a function room for gatherings with your family and friends, and a fitness center for your physical health. Residents can live life to the fullest and enjoy the lush and convenient space with no worries as Studio N has 24/7 security.

Affordable and flexible payment options

Pre-selling properties, like Studio N, offer the advantage of acquiring a property at lower prices with lighter and longer payment terms. You can also choose your preferred unit location and floor plan. Units with a view of the city or facing the sunrise, those with easier access to amenities, and less foot traffic are high in demand.

Moreover, you can get a high-value asset with a low capital. For instance, an 18 sqm studio unit at Studio N is just PHP 25,000 in downpayment and PHP 15,000 in monthly payments while a 36 sqm combined unit requires a PHP 50,000 downpayment and PHP 36,000 monthly.

Properties in Filinvest City have seen increased asset values with an annual growth rate of over 20% in the last decade, so investors and future unit owners can still take advantage of the pre-selling price of Studio N. After a while, your property will gain higher returns with steady appreciation.

Secure investment

Real estate platform Lamudi Philippines notes that whether investors use the property now or in the future, they get better investment returns. Property prices eventually increase as years pass, so its value will be higher than when you purchased it. Hence, pre-selling properties are secure investments, just like Studio N, which held its topping off ceremony last June, further ensuring the investment.

“Considering its prime location and sensible design, real estate properties appreciate over time.” said Daphne Sanchez, Senior Vice President for Residential and Estates at Filinvest Alabang, Inc. “Studio N’s flexible unit offerings let future residents experience compact studio living in a prime business hub, making it the best fit for working professionals or investors interested in rental income.”

Given these benefits, investing in real estate—especially a pre-selling property—is a smart financial decision for individuals who want to secure their future and guarantee stability. Avail a Studio N unit now before the anticipated capital appreciation.
