As an overseas Filipino, you’ve likely dreamt of returning to the Philippines to build a home or invest in your future. Aboitiz Land, the real estate arm of the Aboitiz group, which is one of ASEAN’s best-managed conglomerates, offers the opportunity to make that dream a reality. Whether you’re looking for a place to settle upon returning or an investment that appreciates over time, Aboitiz Land provides options that resonate with the aspirations of Filipinos worldwide.
A Cebuano Heritage for the Philippines
Aboitiz Land began in a modest 20-square-meter room in Cebu City and has grown into a leading real estate developer closely tied to the city’s development. The Aboitiz family ventured into real estate in the 1980s, and in 1994, Roberto “Bobby” Aboitiz founded ACOLand. A significant milestone was the development of the West Cebu Industrial Park (WCIP) in Balamban, which greatly influenced the local economy and landscape. Today, this area, now known as West Cebu Estate, continues to be a key driver of growth.
Aboitiz Land’s journey in real estate started with North Town Homes in 1994, setting a standard for luxury living and becoming one of Cebu’s most recognized addresses. This success was followed by projects like Mahogany Grove, and the launch of Pristina North in 2003 further reinforced Aboitiz Land’s reputation for creating quality residential communities.
Recognizing the increasing demand for mid-market housing, Aboitiz Land expanded its offerings between 2003 and 2013 with communities like Briza and Ajoya Mactan, reaching a wider audience. In 2008, the company entered the high-rise living market with The Persimmon, reflecting its commitment to innovation. Priveya Hills was introduced in 2012 as an exclusive address overlooking the hillside of Talamban, becoming a sought-after location for the privileged few.
Now a thriving community, Amoa provides residents with more opportunities for chance interactions with neighbors, fostering a vibrant and connected environment. In West Cebu, Foressa Mountain Town is an ideal retreat for retirees seeking a peaceful, nature-filled environment with modern conveniences. Nestled in the mountains, it offers a balance of leisure, natural beauty, and easy access to a nearby commercial center.
With Aboitiz Land committed to enriching the communities it serves, Foressa Mountain Town, in partnership with the Asmara group, will soon bring a bar and restaurant, adding a unique lifestyle experience to the highlands of Balamban. Looking ahead, Aboitiz Land continues to develop sustainable communities that contribute to Cebu’s growth and prosperity.
Expanding Horizons, Deepening Roots
Aboitiz Land has made significant strides in Luzon, broadening its reach beyond Cebu. Seafront Residences marks its first venture in Luzon, offering an exclusive beachside community in San Juan, Batangas. This development provides a unique alternative to the predominantly lot-only options in the area, setting a new benchmark for beachfront living in the Laiya area. For overseas Filipinos, Seafront Residences is an opportunity to own a piece of paradise back home, ideal for creating lasting family memories and a smart investment in a prime location.
The Villages at Lipa has further solidified Aboitiz Land’s presence in Luzon, earning the accolade of Best Central Business District Development Philippines in one of the most prestigious real estate industry awards programme, the PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards 2023. Located within the expansive Aboitiz-owned LIMA Estate in Batangas, this award-winning community combines modern amenities with strategic positioning, making it a sought-after destination for homeowners and investors alike. Alongside it is The Strides at LIMA, the first vertical development in LIMA Estate, caters to the growing demand for residential options within this thriving economic hub, offering dynamic living spaces that support both work and leisure.
Landmarks like the TARI Estate and New Clark City along with robust infrastructure developments signal progress in Central Luzon, making it a fast-developing region. Ajoya communities are designed to blend convenience, comfort, and connectivity, making them a great investment for those looking to be part of a dynamic and expanding economic landscape where thriving infrastructure supports both personal and professional growth.
A Future Built on Innovation and Community
Recognizing the unique challenges faced by overseas Filipinos when purchasing high-ticket items like real estate without the opportunity to see them in person, Aboitiz Land has embraced technology to bridge this gap. As part of the tech-driven Aboitiz Group, Aboitiz Land has pioneered the integration of advanced technology into its real estate offerings. The company’s digital platform, OneVecino, is a game-changer in this regard. OneVecino provides a transparent and efficient way for potential buyers, including those based overseas, to engage with the property market. Through this platform, users can explore detailed virtual tours, access comprehensive property information, and manage their transactions from anywhere in the world.
As Aboitiz Land looks ahead, it will continue to play a pivotal role in developing residential communities within Aboitiz economic estates, combining the best of urban living with the advantages of integrated estates in strategic locations. The goal is to create sustainable, resilient, and inclusive communities that empower individuals and families to thrive.
