Young, innovative realtors develop first waterfront residences

Prime urban condominiums and residences have been one of the top investment choices in the last five years as more and more people want flexibility in their assets. And as the property values appreciate over time, property investors are able to maximize their investment either through the sale or rental of their property investments. This has made the real estate industry one of the best investment options. But with the current global economic turmoil, the big question is, are they willing to take the risks and challenges of property development?

Despite the challenges, there are people ready to take the risk and make a difference in this difficult situation. Right now, the world needs entrepreneurs who see opportunities in times of crisis.

According to Excore’s executive vice president and chief operating officer, Ma. Charina “Chay” S. Garcia and Excore’s president and chief executive officer, Celedonio “Donnie” A. Pile, Jr., contrary to the perception that land value is slowly depreciating because of what is happening today, more than any given time, now is the best time to acquire properties.

Slowly but surely making their way to becoming significant players along with the giants of the real estate industry, Chay and Donnie to friends, family, and colleagues, have managed to develop pieces of properties into personalized paradise.

One of their projects is Mandara Waterfront Residences, a low density residential complex for the privileged few with only 216 units up for sale and is comprised in 12 buildings of three different designs. Mandara sits in the neighborhood where you can access the main thoroughfares going to Makati, Manila, Pasay or Quezon City. It is also in the proximity of the soon-to-rise Centennial City, a tourist destination that boasts a casino, entertainment center and commercial attractions in the heart of Roxas Boulevard, alongside the largest shopping haven, SM Mall of Asia and Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

“Very few people can claim that they have a waterfront residence, which is just few meters away from the bay area. And more importantly, Mandara comes with the right location, right price, right people and the perfect element,” Garcia proudly explains.

Mandara Waterfront Residences is under Landmark Communities Inc., one of the sister companies of Excore Inc. – both under the leadership and management of Chay and Donnie.

Landmark has been in the business for only more than two years but with the strong and credible people leading the company, it is one of the fastest growing developers in the country today.

According to them, Mandara is going to be another first in the Philippines and will eventually serve its purpose – to raise the quality of urban living and create a new definition of luxury.
