MANILA, Philippines – A recent Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) report reveals that more Filipinos are optimistic about the country’s real estate sector.
In the Consumer Expectation Survey for the second quarter of the year, 30.3 percent of households see this quarter as a favorable time to buy high-priced items like housing, motor vehicles and consumer durables. This optimism is largely driven by the improved outlook of consumers on real estate which people in the Metro consider as “a good investment and a means to avoid house rental fees”.
