South China Resources unit 'shakes' market with smart property investments

MANILA, Philippines - While price per square meter is one important thing to consider when choosing a condominium unit, property investors or home buyers should keep in mind that a lower priced development is only a great deal if it does not compromise the quality of its construction and the amenities that it provides.

One developer that definitely meets the cut is SOC Land, a subsidiary of publicly listed firm South China Resources. Its 2.4-hectare resort themed mid-rise condo development, Anuva, is master planned in a strategic location just a kilometer off the Sucat Interchange and has amenities akin to that of a high-end development, that is, while being priced affordably.

Priced as low as P61,000 per square meter, Anuva offers the lowest price range among comparative developments not only in the area but also for most of Metro Manila. 

Anuva’s units ranging from 23 to 47 square meters are offered for as low as P1.4 million for studios, about P2 million for 1-bedroom units, and less than P3 million for 2-bedroom units.

Anuva also offers its potential homeowners the flexibility to choose among the different attractive payment options available to them, such as deferred payment at zero interest, spot downpayment and a 20/80 payment that also includes in-house and bank financing, and a discounted straight cash payment.

Said SOC Land Vice President Missy Castro, “Offering an ideal property investment that is affordable is very much possible with Anuva for many reasons. One is that we did not have to acquire the land or do a joint venture with other landowners, as we already own the land where Anuva is being built.”

Added Castro, “Also, our no-frills, no-nonsense marketing that simply focuses on Anuva’s salient features not only adds up to substantial savings that we can pass on to our buyers but also ensures an organic flow of development that does not compromise quality.” 

These are on top of the fact that SOC Land is an affiliate of Gonzalo Puyat & Sons, (GONPU), the century-old conglomerate of leaders and pioneers, which include Puyat Steel, Philippine Flour Mills and APO Floors.

At Anuva, you also literally get more for your pesos. Unlike other developers who include additional remote spaces like laundry cages usually located at the condo’s roof deck in a given unit’s area measurements, Anuva only includes in its measurements actual livable areas within the condo unit’s peripheral walls. Anuva’s laundry areas are within the units themselves for the added security and comfort of residents.

Indeed, the amenities that Anuva offers are either at par with those found in more expensive mid-rise communities, or even better. These include a spacious clubhouse, a resort-type lazy river, numerous water features, jogging paths, bike trails, playgrounds in every corner, a yoga deck, and even a tree house only found in farms and provinces.
