Demand for real estate in the Philippines peaked during the third quarter of last year which is in line with the traditional property cycle. Interest steadily grows during the first six months as developers bring new projects to the market and agents add to their portfolios.
Fewer launches take place in the second half which causes supply to shrink over the final three months. That, coupled with outside factors, sees demand slow down during the holiday season.
Overall, the Philippine real estate market looks to be in recovery mode with demand surging in Metro Manila and Metro Cebu while remaining steady elsewhere across the country. Unsurprisingly, the most popular location remains the National Capital Region, followed by Calabarzon and Central Visayas.
