How to Maximize Your Investment in a Cebu Condo

Author: Marc Godornes

Categories: Cebu,Properties

Are you thinking of investing in a Cebu condo? Condos are a popular choice for both locals and foreigners in Cebu, thanks to their convenience, amenities, and potential for appreciation. However, as with any investment, it’s important to do your due diligence and maximize your return on investment (ROI). Here are some tips on how to do just that:

Research the location: As with any real estate investment, location is key. Look for a condo in an area with strong demand, such as a central business district, near schools and hospitals, or with easy access to transportation.
Choose the right developer: Do your research on the developer’s track record, including their previous projects and any customer reviews. This will give you an idea of the quality and reliability of the condo you’re considering.
Consider the unit size and layout: A larger unit may have a higher price tag, but it may also have a higher rental yield or resale value. Think about what you need in terms of space and layout, and look for a unit that will appeal to potential renters or buyers.
Think about the amenities: Condos with a range of amenities, such as a swimming pool, gym, and 24-hour security, can be more appealing to renters and may command a higher price. Consider the amenities offered by the condo you’re interested in and whether they align with your goals for the investment.
Hire a property manager: If you’re planning to rent out your condo, a property manager can help you find and screen tenants, handle maintenance and repair issues, and collect rent. This can save you time and hassle, and allow you to focus on maximizing your ROI. If you don’t have one, we can recommend the top property managers in our sister company Rent.ph.

By following these tips, you can make a smart investment in a Cebu condo and maximize your return on investment. Do your research, choose a high-quality developer and unit, and consider the location, amenities, and potential for appreciation. With careful planning and due diligence, you can make a condo investment in Cebu that pays off for years to come.

Building the Next Generation of Real Estate Agents: A Training in Iloilo City

Author: Marc Godornes

Categories: News

I recently had the opportunity to travel to Iloilo City to train a group of real estate agents on how to excel in their careers. As someone who has been blessed by this industry in so many ways, I feel a deep sense of responsibility to give back and help others achieve their goals.

The training was an amazing experience, and I was touched by the positive and exciting response from the agents. They were eager to learn and absorb as much knowledge and advice as possible, and it was gratifying to see them apply what they had learned in their own work.

But the most heartwarming part of the experience was seeing the impact that the training had on the agents. They left the training feeling inspired and motivated to take their careers to the next level, and it was clear that they had gained valuable skills and insights that would serve them well in their work.

Overall, the training in Iloilo City was a truly rewarding and heartwarming experience, and I am grateful for the opportunity to give back to this incredible industry that has blessed me in so many ways.
