Providing the must-haves for hardworking students

AVIDA TOWERS Primea provides a secure haven along the Taft university strip.

Last week, Inquirer Property started its Condo Hunt series, which we hope could help guide parents in looking for the most convenient, conducive and secure apartment or condo unit to serve as “homes” for their children throughout the school year.

This week, we are taking parents on a virtual tour of the different Avida Land developments near schools and universities, which may offer the kind of amenities and facilities their children would look for and prefer.

Put up by property giant Ayala Land Inc. in 1990, Avida Land was initially meant to provide housing for the employees and executives of the Laguna Techno Park. Fast forward to present day, the company has already built quality homes and has since become a top contender and a preferred choice of the hardworking mid-market segment.

Avida Land pegs its success on its strict adherence to what it dubbed as the five must-haves of every condominium or house and lot project—accessible location, design, quality, buying experience and living experience. And clearly, these same must-haves may very well make any student’s life much more convenient and comfortable.

Depending on one’s needs and whims, here are three Avida developments that parents and students may want to consider:
