Sta. Lucia Land currently has developments ranging from townships, golf communities, house and lot developments, mid- and high-rise condos, condotels, residential resorts and even commercial malls.
It all started then with a vision.
But it was that ambitious vision, which saw more deserving Filipinos living in high quality, world-class master-planned residential subdivisions, that gave the Robles-Santos family the drive to put up back in 1972 what is currently one of the strongest contenders in the Philippine real estate market.
The Sta. Lucia Group, which has developed over 10,000 hectares of land through some 210 property projects over the past four decades, has since provided Filipinos not only mere standard structures that provides the best value for money, but also developments that uphold family values and raise the standards of living.
Sta. Lucia’s large sales force has allowed the company to offer personalized services to its clients anywhere from documentation assistance to investment advice.
Indeed, the company has given the Filipino market both here and abroad the best there is in real estate with its diverse product portfolio.
Regarded as one of the biggest and most trusted real estate developer in the country, Sta. Lucia Land currently has developments ranging from townships, golf communities, house and lot developments, mid- and high-rise condos, condotels, residential resorts and even commercial malls. This impressive roster of projects has, apart from providing comfortable lifestyles, more importantly, spurred progress within the communities in which these are located.
Hence, it is not at all surprising to hear that Sta. Lucia Group, with its passion to build and the commitment to deliver, has managed to corner a fair share of the local realty market, which consisted of the upper, mid and hardworking individuals seeking for projects that do not only cater to one’s housing needs, but those that also ensure that the environment within which these developments are being built are protected and respected.
This despite the company having to go through several economic crisis which they were able to withstand by offering to the market affordable residential packages.
Indeed, Sta. Lucia’s carefully planned and meticulously designed communities have allowed residents to live with a sense of balance and harmony in an environment that harmoniously co-exists with the demands of a modern lifestyle.
Much credit must be given as well to the two men who made sure that the vision of the company’s founders would continue to live and won’t be for naught.
They are Exequiel Robles and Vicente Santos, the forceful leaders who are presently at helm of the thriving Sta. Lucia Land and whose vision shapes and sets the direction of the company, thus allowing it to achieve the prestigious position it currently holds. Robles, Santos and their highly competent and knowledgeable team always strive to ensure a smooth delivery of services and quality property developments.
