Active Group finds constant market for low-cost housing

"There is always a market for low-cost housing," Antonio "Toti" Turalba Jr. says, and on this he is backed up by statistics, conventional wisdom, even the scriptures. Food, clothing, and shelter are the basic (physical) needs of all human beings.

Turalba, is an architect who is now involved in the airline business as chairman of Asian spirit and, soon, possibly even tourism ventures.

He is also the Chief Operating Officer of Active Realty and Development Corporation (ARDC), the land development arm of the Active Group of Companies that positions itself "wherever there is a need" – from high-end resort community to low-cost housing.

Thus, there’s the Mount Malarayat Golf & Country Club in Lipa, Batangas, and the Town & Country subdivisions in Antipolo, Laguna, Cavite, and Bulacan, and now, San Antonio South (SAS), an economic housing in Biñan, Laguna.

San Antonio South, Turalba says, is really a high-end product in its category A total of 15.3 hectares in Barangay Langkiwa, Biñan, the property is subdivided into lot areas measuring from 60 to 75 square meters each. Amenities are first-rate; roads are wide and concrete, drainage system, water and electric installations will be in place soon. In short, it’s envisioned to be like an urban neighborhood – sleek, modern, and efficient.

It is Active’s fourth project of its kind. The company has Villa Cristina Subdivision in Madanlog, Victorias City, Villa Antonella in Tinampa-an, Cadiz City, both in Negros Occidental, and Maria Cristina Village in Latag, Lipa City, Batangas.

San Antonio South is conveniently located close to industrial and recreational centers, hospitals, malls and supermarkets. More specifically: Don Bosco Technical School, Perpetual Help College, Turalba High School, La Consolacion College, Ann Arbor Montessori, College of the Holy Spirit; Laguna Techno Park, Laguna Industrial Park, Light Industry and Science Park; Perpetual Help Medical Center, Biñan Doctors Hospital, Asian Medical Center; Splash Island, Enchanted Kingdom, Carmona Sports Coliseum; Carmona Public Market, Waltermart, Rustan’s, Metropolitan Plaza, Olivarez Plaza, and Festival Mall.
