Techie P. Bautista, CREBA vice-president for external affairs, and chairperson of CLAIMS, said CLAIMS uses the latest technologies in land mapping to process the technical description of a land title into a digital lot plan together with its relative position in the provincial, city or municipal and barangay levels, and shows the road network surrounding the property.
CREBA, led by national president Florentino S. Dulalia Jr. and board chairman Atty. Manuel M. Serrano, is a nationwide organization of developers, builders, and professionals directly or indirectly engaged in property development and marketing. It has recently organized the CREBA International Federation to organize international chapters which will aggressively engage in the global market for Philippine properties. Purita R. Soliven, CREBA executive vice-president, is federation president.
Bautista said CLAIMS will certainly add value to Philippine properties. "Finally we now have a credible and professionally prepared document to present to our investors. It is fast, accurate, economical and affordable."
On top of all this, Bautista said, CLAIMS will add value to Philippine properties. "Finally we now have a credible and professionally prepared document to present to our investors. It is fast, accurate, economical and affordable."
The CLAIMS report, she said, also provides information on income class, zonal value, population density, topography and elevation, soil or rock formation, flooding and earthquake susceptibility. Bautista said, it will also show the presence of utilities and amenities such as water, electricity, cable TV, landline and wireless telecommunication, schools, churches and hospitals.
CLAIMS, the CREBA official said, will therefore relieve interested industry and professional parties and the public of tedious and time-consuming data gathering from various government offices. It is already a compilation of official government data on land, certified by a geodetic engineer.
CREBA CLAIMS "will definitely fast-track your decision-making process," Bautista stressed. "No need to go to the site just to determine the relative value and characteristics of a property. CREBA has put together data considered pertinent to the real estate businessmen and stakeholders in assessing a property."
