The Philippines, Urban Oasis

Why is Philippines an investment friendly country?

The Philippines is the fastest growing economy in ASEAN and is a very attractive property investment destination.

1. Population

The total population of The Philippines is 109 million, with a high growth rate of 1.69% per year. The Philippines and Indonesia are the only countries in Southeast Asia with population of over 100 million.

With the average age of the population at 24 years old, the youthful human resources will serve as key drivers to further the country’s economic growth.

2. High GDP growth

The Philippines’ GDP has been growing steadily for the past 40 years. It achieved a five-fold growth in the last 20 years. Also, the GDP growth rate has remained at about 6% since 2012, except during the pandemic.

3. Infrastructure reform: “Build! Build! Build! Program”

Former President Duterte pushed his “build! build! build! program”, a major infrastructure reform. This ambitious project entails the construction of new airports, seaports, and highways all over the country.

This major investment will not only improve infrastructure, it also leads to the development of many industries and increased employment opportunities.

4. Residential price indexes continue to rise

As residential prices continue to rise, we can expect capital gains.

5. Average yield in major Asian cities

A comparison among major Asian cities shows a higher average yield in the Philippine city of Manila. In addition, the Taguig and Pasig areas, which are high-end areas, have yields in excess of 6%.
