Some investment opportunities continue to be just as promising.
More so now that the Philippines is starting to see green shoots of recovery, investment prospects—such as those in real estate—are looking to be more encouraging and attractive. This is even further bolstered by forecasts of property consultancy firms such as Santos Knight Frank that some segments of the real estate industry will likely see a gradual recovery this year following a tumultuous 2020.
Although there are a number of asset classes you can choose from, an increasingly favored investment choice even prior to the pandemic would be the serviced apartments, which then catered mostly to business and leisure travelers who preferred the luxuries and amenities of a plushy hotel but also craved for the familiar creature comforts of home. It likewise appealed largely to the staycationers, who wanted a hotel accommodation but with the warmth of a home.
Today, while travel in general has yet to normalize amid the bans and border closures due to the pandemic, the potential of investing in existing serviced apartments remains uniquely attractive.
What draws many to serviced apartments is the fact that it can be a fairly simple, hassle-free investment that would be a significant addition to your property portfolio.
