Property investing is all about being at the right time at the right place
Real estate remains the gold standard of investments. It is one of the safest options available to everyone, and it providesstrong and steady returns. Through the booms and busts of the Philippine economy, the real estate industry has shown impressive resilience, even in a year of pandemic-induced downturn.
However, to fully reap all the benefits, an investor must know the right time and place to invest. Location is, of course, the most commonly known factor.
Las Piñas, nestled south of Metropolitan Manila, is projected to be one such bright spot, thanks to its being flood-free and business-friendly, its young population, and its proximity to central business districts.
Within this growth area is SM Development Corp.’s newest project, South 2 Residences.The 2.1-hectare mid-rise residential development comprises three 15-storey towers. It is part of the SM Lifestyle City masterplan - 200,000 sqm of endless daily conveniences of the SM Southmall. Within the development is the SM South Tower offices, the SM Southmall Transport Terminal and a future educational institution.
With the opening of Cavitex-C5 Sucat Interchange, the accessibility of the property is further enhanced. As it is, it already provides easy access to the rest of Metro Manila as well as to Cavite, Laguna and Batangas.
This location offers far more than convenience. A study by Leechiu Property Consultants on Las Piñas properties showed that condominiums within walking distance of SM Southmall are 68% higher in per-square-meter price than condominiums located farther away. South 2 Residences’ predecessor, South Residences has appreciated in value by 190% over the last five years, giving owners a gain of as much as P77,000 per square meter on their property. Mixed-use developments also show the highest average-price growth (180%) compared to single-tower projects (114%) and multi-tower developments (105%).
Increasing a property’s value is the reputation of its developer.SMDC was recently named 2020’s Best Developer at the 8th PropertyGuru Awards, and won several accolades for its developments. The excellence of its projects are further enhanced by the balance they strike between luxury and accessibility.South 2 Residences offers SMDC’s brand of five-star features, hotel-like experience and generous resort-type amenities.
This combination of location, amenities and pedigree make South 2 Residences the best of all investments: one that appreciates in value, and one that can be enjoyed by the owner himself.
SMDC is PropertyGuru's Best Developer for 2020.
