Wazzup Pilipinas!
With the Philippines emerging as one of Asia’s bright spots and a darling of international investors, it is clear to say that the country’s real estate market is experiencing its best years not seen since the onset of the Asian financial crisis in 1997. Even the global downturn of 2008 did little to dampen the country’s exuberant business climate.
Although it seems that the Philippine real estate market is at its best time yet, more opportunities are expected over the next few years. Lamudi lists down five of these.
1. The Rise of Real Estate’s Sunshine Industries
Although the residential sector is experiencing its most vibrant years, there are still other segments that could provide plenty of opportunities. One of these is properties intended for retirees.
According to Cely Delos Santos, a licensed real estate consultant and vice president of full-service consultancy firm REHub, properties catering to wellness and medical tourism and estates for retirees are considered sunrise industries that promise huge growth over the next few years, especially now that the Philippines is fast becoming a favorite retirement option among foreign retirees and returning Filipinos.
