Lamudi’s The Outlook: Philippine Buyers’
Choice Property Awards 2019, co-presented by Philippine Daily Inquirer Property
and Holcim, received 30% more nominations from developers this year,
particularly coming from Visayas and Mindanao. With established names
and boutique developers in the real estate industry vying for the
awards, the competition was bound to be fierce--and fierce it was, as the
discerning market ultimately decided the winners for the House, Condominium,
and Mixed-Use categories.
History Speaks for Itself
Filinvest Land, Inc., which was awarded Best
Affordable Condo in Luzon for Value for Money in 2018, proved their strength as
a property powerhouse with their wide range of developments. At The Outlook
Awards 2019, they bested other nominees for the Best Premium Condo for Visayas
and Mindanao with their development, Sanremo Oasis at City di Mare. Filinvest’s
Best Affordable House award last year for their development, Claremont, was
also complemented by this year’s win for Best Premium House in Luzon for their
development, The Peak.
Avida
Land Corporation is another powerhouse worth recognizing. With Avida Towers Makati Southpoint winning Best Premium
Condo and Avida Southfield Settings NUVALI winning Best Affordable House in
Luzon. Avida Land was also last year’s winner for Best Premium Condo for Trust
and Reputation of Developer for their development Avida Towers Asten.
