Have your cake and eat it too

MANILA, Philippines - If you were at liberty to choose, would you live in a high-rise condominium with ample legroom, complete with a swimming pool, playgrounds for the kids, adequate parking spaces? Now here’s a quick reality check: condominiums like the aforementioned do exist, but they will cost you an arm, a leg and a family member to rent. Here comes the first curve ball – not all condominiums that fit the idyllic bill are that expensive, or that hard to attain.

As if to appease us, we have been told from a very early age, “You can’t have your cake and eat it too.” It appears that we can’t have the model living space while simultaneously saving money. You tried Plan B – you haggled in terms of floor area and amenities. You were shown architecturally stunning layouts and lusciously manicured lawns. So you ended up renting something that was within your budget, saving up whatever tiny amount was left over after your bills, in the hopes of one day affording a home of your own. Watch out for curve ball number two – a well-established property developer can give you that glossy swimming pool, that wide living space without you having to inadvertently kill an ailing relative.

Just to show you that we aren’t lying – check out www.phinmaproperties.com. Or call 533-7777/535-6800. Check out their 2 latest offerings Fountain Breeze in Sucat, Parañaque and Sofia Bellevue in Capitol Hills, Quezon City. The same property developer that has brought you affordable and quality homes since 1987 assures you of a ‘complete lifestyle (with) one address’ through Fountain Breeze, which was ready for occupancy within the same trimester that construction began. Sofia Bellevue was launched in March this year and the first 2 buildings will be completed within the same year.

Fountain Breeze lives up to the PHINMA Properties slogan of “City Living Made Easy.” Think about it. You get all the amenities, plus 50% extra floor area for 20 to 30% less the average selling price. “This value-for-money philosophy is PHINMA Properties’ pride,” says Willie Uy, the company’s president and CEO. “In fact, our specs allow buyers to get very high loan values for their units allowing them easy financing terms to as low as P10, 221/month thru Pag-ibig.” Compared to other selling methodologies, the “low-priced, big-sized” strategy is one that PHINMA Properties has no plans of shelving.
