International interest
The Philippines has emerged as a vibrant destination for luxury real estate investment, attracting significant attention from international investors, mainly Japan, Singapore, and Thailand. This international interest is due not only to the availability of quality luxury properties that can cater to a sophisticated international clientele, but also to the country’s strategic global position.
Total approved foreign investments in the first quarter of 2023 hit P172.70 billion, indicating a solid vote of confidence from global investors. Legislative reforms to ease restrictions on foreign investments, such as amendments to the Retail Trade Liberalization Act, Foreign Investment Act, and Public Service Act, have further facilitated this influx. Such concerted efforts by the Philippine government to liberalize economic policies have significantly boosted the appeal of the real estate market to foreign investors.
By reducing barriers to entry and promoting foreign direct investments, the Philippines has diversified its investment portfolio and enhanced its global competitiveness. These developments, such as those by luxury developer Shang Properties, no doubt signal a promising outlook for the Philippines as a player in international real estate.
