Philippine Real Estate to Stay Strong in 2025 Amid High Demand, Says Industry Leader

Despite lingering concerns over an oversupply of condos in Metro Manila, the Philippine property market is projected to stay robust throughout 2025, according to Anthony Leuterio, founder of Filipino Homes.

Leuterio noted that real estate in key cities like Cebu, Metro Manila, and Davao continues to thrive, with new developments selling out quickly and pushing property values higher.

Even amid challenges such as the decline in POGO-related demand, other areas like Palawan and Bacolod are witnessing notable growth in real estate activities. Leuterio attributed this resilience to strong OFW remittances, which drive investments, especially in urban hubs and tourist-friendly locations.

Major infrastructure projects like Cebu’s Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) and ongoing road upgrades are also boosting residential property demand by improving accessibility.

The trend toward sustainable and affordable housing is gaining momentum, with buyers increasingly looking for eco-friendly homes and integrated communities that combine residential, commercial, and lifestyle features.

“Despite inflation and high interest rates, we’re seeing resilient end-user demand supported by infrastructure-led growth,” said Leuterio.

In line with this bullish outlook, Filipino Homes is organizing the Asian Real Estate Summit (ARES) 2025 on July 1–2 in Bangkok. The event is expected to draw over 1,000 professionals and more than 30 top developers, offering a platform to share industry insights and network with key players.
