B. Rodriguiz Street mana. :ohno: :nuts: :)

does anyone have a picture of the one bedroom condo

it seems the room in the one bedroom is smaller than the proposed floor plan

Avida Towers is 32-storeys each respectively. . .

I hope it's true :banana:

Ang sa San Lorenzo Makati 30 storeys unya karong ang Cebu from 25 to 32 storeys nahinuon. :nuts: :banana: :)

Thats what our informant told us........ we are quiet surprised actually!!!

We just hope this is true...

sir fred...... wa nay restrictions kay ang mga buyers na nag signify sauna na mopalit kay ni shift na sa Calyx.. mao na na natarantar ang Avida....

Nakakaon ug tagam.............

Comparing an Ayala brand to uhmmm Calyx? Not to speak in behalf of Ayala but Ayala Land or Avida plays by the book, before preselling commences, they make it sure that the HLURB LTS is already there, it is well planned, and the marketing teams are well informed. Wa man nataranta ang Avida or Ayala ;) And even if daghan namalit sa Calyx, none can deny the fact na daghan pud ang interesado sa Avida because of its credibility, name, and Ayala brand. IMO, when you say Ayala Land...it is just one if not the only developer in the country na tatak cgurado! :okay:

Henz, Avida price is a lot cheaper than Calyx. Why are they worried. Some condo owners in Manila might be buying a condo in Cebu City. :nuts:

One of the selling point of Avida is yes its price :okay: and second...the name. Sa mga new condo investors, ayaw mo dayun padala sa mga rendering or presyo kay daghan kaayo projects dire sa Manila na wa natiwas og buhat kay wa nay budget ang developer. Or, nahuman og buhat pero upon delivery, investors will find out na wala nafollow ang specs sa unit. Kung baga, lahi ang gipresent sa imong agent, lahi ang gideliver. And last classic concern, nadeliver na and ok na tanan pero ang next question is..ma-maintain ba sa developer ang condominium in the next 5 to 10 to 15 years and so forth? Huna hunaa na ang pagpalit sa condo wa lang nahuman sa pagkadeliver sa unit, pero dapat ma-maintain pud ang structure and value sa property even years after the delivery.

Avida's projects, once delivered, will be maintained by APMC or Ayala Land Property Management - same company managing all of the Ayala condos here in Metro Manila.

Avida has a 1 year workmanship warranty and 15 yrs structural warranty. ;)

Avida is Ayala, thus in terms of quality, value appreciation, and security...panalong panalo ka! ;)

aok... i dont actually question it...... the current projects of Cebu based developers are also top of the class.... Asia Premier, Calyx, Padgett Place.... in fact, it offers much better than what Avida can offer.

But of course, who could be happier than us Cebuano's....... we love all these projects come and compete each other. This would augur well in the industry and make Cebu as a worthy place for these investments.

Cebu loves Ayala.... since it is the one single investor who changed the landscape of cebu while the rest follows.

And soon, with the Alveo, Ayala Premier and Amaia brands coming.. we couldn't ask for more!

^^ by the way, unlike other developers too....buyers of Ayala Land projects will go through evaluation. Hindi porke't interested ka ay pwede ng bumili. :lol: May name check, background check, and credit investigation pa. ;)

Wanna know if you are a qualified Ayala Land investor? Simple lang...let's say ang magiging monthly ng condo mo is 33K.

33K should be your 30-40% dispensable income.

Thus, 33K/.4 = 82,500 pesos.

Therefore, you should be earning atleast 82,500 to be a qualified buyer of Ayala Land. ;)

Ako naman, not that I question them, but a smart investor should always ask...may natapos na ba silang projects? With the developers mentioned above, may nadeliver na ba silang projects? Kung meron na, in the span of ten years, nakatayo pa ba ang projects na to? musta ang value nito ngayon? nag appreciate ba? nag depreciate ba?

As a forumer, I am happy with these projects...I love skyscrapers! As an investor....think twice before you invest. Again, wag magpadala sa rendering. That's why d ako excited sa rendering kc ang dami ko ng nakitang buildings na maganda sa rendering pero iba sa turn over. :D

As an entrepreneur, I am no longer affiliating myself with developers who arent tested by time and do not have a line up of completed and well maintained projects. For my vertical projects, I'm happy to be with Ayala Land and Robinsons Land. Both are direct competitors and leading in the nationwide vertical real estate industry, and coz of their projects, Filipinos ang panalo!

And soon, with the Alveo, Ayala Premier and Amaia brands coming.. we couldn't ask for more!

I'm glad naman na excited ka sa pagdating namin. Marami pa kaming dala :D Anyway wag masyadong maexcite sa Amaia...:D it's just a low cost housing.:lol:

yes we actually know that.. since we do the credit/background checking for Avida in Manila. Hope we could also do the same in Cebu... :)

Sabagay... correct ka jan..
But bigyan din natin ng chance ang developers to prove their worth.. while not all developers have the word of honor.. seguro naman may mga meron din at the current Cebu based developers ngayon.. I hope kahit na may isa or dalawa na mag excel as far as credibility and financial stability is concerned.

yeah.. we are excited with Ayala Premier and Alveo... oo.. nga Amaia is on low cost housing.. but as you said.. since it is Ayala.. equally reputable din sya..... :) proud gihapon ta...:)

I have a question lang to yoou @ tj..

ang pool nya.. as per render is naa sa tunga tunga sa 14th level sa Tower 1 and Tower 2.....

Inorder to build this one... means ba na they have to build the base structure for the 2 towers and up to the 4th level.. and later na ang tower 2?

@jech? tinuod? 32 storeys na?

Ayala's Name is something to be trusted in business which started in MM while the Aboitz is the name in Cebu and the Visayas. These names are very reputables in business industries.

You are correct about income. Here in the U.S. Financial institutions advice buyers that at least 30% of the household income is dedicated toward the mortage payments or rental of apartments so investors or tenants will not be in a bind financially.

Did they turn a blind eye on this temporarily Sir Fred? Or daghan lang gyud kautangan diha? (Am refering to the housing debt/subprime mortgage crisis that led the the much larger recession, hehe).

Ako mangutang pod unta ko para makapalit og condo. Hahaha.

Sir Vatics or Jech, can you please PM me details about Avida. Thanks! Mangawat sa ko og bangko. Or basin makabunal ta ug Hapon. Haha.

^^ loop hole for this is combined income of buyers i.e. husband and wife or make use of a joint solidary undertaking and have the buyers sign the RA forms so they can get approved. with this they can be allowed to buy into at least avida.

Would you have any idea as to how Avida base its association fee per month to maintain the common areas e g pool, gardens etc

Ang sad-an compounded kaayo. It envolved every everyone in the transactions and the watchers (government regulars) were lax.

Maoni ang basic example idea ngano nahitabo ni:
Ang buyer mo adto sa real estate broker nga naa siya nakitan nga gustohan balay nga paliton. After sa preliminary tan-aw sa balay unya naka uyon sa presio, magprepare sa paper works. Kung ang broker also financial advisor who is connected to loan officers of some bank or lending company will do all your paper works to borrow money for you and shop which banks or lending company has the lowest interest after checking the clients financial background. (Makakwarta man siya as finders fees from the bank og commision sa balay nga 3-4% ang 6-7% adto man sa brokerage firm.) Karon ang client naay problema sa income, dili kaayo dako iyang kita or naay lain siyang utang nga wa kabayri sa credit history sa client. Karon ang client ni ingon na iyang misses dako kita ug naa siyay lain trabaho(paborot sa income aron maaprobahan). Kahibao naman ang financial company nga adunay gamay kakulian pa-otanggon man hinuon unya padak-an pa ang kwarta aron kuno maka furnish sa balay.:nuts: :ohno: Karon anhi magsugud ang problema, pahuwamon ka pero ang interest dili fixed - adjustable rate interest mortgage ihatag sa imoha. Kung ok ka, dako kaayong chance nga maaprove imong mortage loan. Lami kaayo monthly loan nga barato ra unya enticing pa gyud. Mag close ka and everybody are happy at that day. Six months later the interest will start to cripe up $50/mo. Then a year later $100/mo. increase. Then another $50 more increase. Karon the buyer will have to have problems. The utilities also increased like gas, telephone, electric, water and real estate taxes by not much. But if you add-up the expenses, something has to give up. These happened to millions of financial customers who are in a bind. Bankruptcy is the way out. You will see lines in the bankruptcy court in big cities. To protect their income, car maybe but lost the house. :ohno:

Since some people are already broke, the will go to the city agency to get subsidies on food stamps, from $100/mo to $500+/month depends of the number of depends.

Avida towers ng rendering nka display beside Pagibig tower?

^^mao ba bai? tarp siya? kanang location sa bunkhouse ron sa IL? kilid mana sa Pagibig tower... Or kanang advertisment rendering sa CBP kilid sa flyover?

Avida Towers 30% sold out during priority selling event (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=583614&publicationSubCategoryId=108)

CEBU, Philippines - Even before its formal launching in Cebu, Ayala Land Inc.’s condominium brand Avida, already enjoyed a strong take up of the condominium units of the Avida Towers with 149 of the total 518 units sold within three days.

A Priority Selling activity was conducted last week which recognizes the patronage of existing Ayala clients by giving them the first priority to reserve their chosen units.

Prospective buyers who have submitted Letters of Intent were accommodated as well.

On the last day of the activity, approximately 200 sellers and buyers attended, some of whom have waited for registration to open as early as 7:30 in the morning.

In three days, 149 or 30 percent of the total units were already taken.

The first condominium project of Avida in the Visayas, Avida Towers Cebu is located in Asiatown IT Park, the premier IT and BPO hub in Southern Philippines. It is the first affordable Ayala condominium community in the region.

In line with Ayala Land’s commitment to enhance land and enrich lives, Avida focuses on enriching the lives of the hardworking middle class by offering their families a home to be proud of—one nestled in a peaceful and safe community, accessible to public transportation, beautifully and practically designed, and one that will prove reliable performance over time. Avida stands for “affordable living at its best.”

Avida Towers Cebu is a joint venture project of Avida Land Corp. and Asian I Office (AIO).

AIO is a subsidiary of Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corporation which owns and manages Asiatown IT Park.

It offers Studio, 1-Bedroom and 2-Bedroom units with a price range of P1.6 to P4.4M. Interested buyers may avail of these units for a monthly amortization that is as low as P14,500.

The units are available for viewing in the Avida Towers Cebu sales pavilion located along Geonzon St. across eDiner in the eOffice building of Asiatown IT Park.

Avida Towers Cebu's first tower is a 25-story building with 22 residential floors and 518 residential units. It is designed with prime views of the nearby mountain ranges, Asiatown I.T. Park, and the sea.

This project which is expected to cost the company at least P1.5 billion investments creates affordability, security and value in every house and lot and condominium development it builds. Avida stands for affordable living at its best.

The Ayala Group in partnership with its affiliate Cebu Holdings Inc. (CHI) earlier announced that it will pour in capital expenditure (capex) of about P2 billion each year, starting 2010.

ALI president Antonino T. Aquino said that this year, ALI will partner with CHI and its subsidiary Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corporation (CPVD) for development of five projects in both Asia Town IT Park and the Cebu Business Park (CBP).

With this partnership the four brands of ALI, the AyalaLand Premier, Alveo, Avida and Amaya will have its presence in Cebu with the establishing of three residential condominiums that will be constructed in AsiaTown IT Park, and CBP.

“Cebu’s economy is vibrant, relative to have CHI is doing, and the retail sector performing well. Also, Cebu is very attractive for BPO investors,” said Aquino.

Avida is the first brand to be introduced in Cebu, with this partnership.

That's amazing. It's always been the case for Ayala projects. :cheers:

Well...... we expect that it will be sold out in about three months or less and that the Tower 2 is expected to be also launched earlier than expected....

By the end of the year Avida Tower's Cebu is expected to be sold out... In fact, even before the official launching 30% of the units are good as sold, while the rest of the units of Tower 1 will be sold by the time it will be launched in June 15.... Tower 2 will then be opened by July or August.

Expecting this outcome, this early Avida Land is looking for the site for another Avida Land project.. this time in SRP or NRA?

3 Basement Parking

3 basement? diba that 3 parking floors is still above ground level?
or naa gyud ni siyay 3 levels basement? (3 floors below ground level?)

If I have the means I would invest in this project. I always frequent Cebu when I was practicing in the Philippines as a design consultant. Though I'm not from Cebu I'm always delighted whenever I'm assigned for a project with CFIF or furniture exporters in Cebu. I spent almost two weeks or sometimes I get the earliest flight then back to Manila on the last flight for business meetings on the same day. Back then it would be wise for me to invest and have a pad in Cebu. How I wish that the philippine furniture industry would get back on its feet and that would be a great time to finally come home and practice my craft in my own country. Haaay good ol days!

does anyone know when they will presell the condos of avida tower 2

3 basement? diba that 3 parking floors is still above ground level?

above ground level parking. my mistake. :bash:

does anyone know when they will presell the condos of avida tower 2

there is still avida tower 1 on pre-sale. as soon as more 60% of the units are sold in tower 1 will the pre-selling of avida tower 2 condo units be announced. if you have friends who'd invest in avida tower 1 then it will be not far the tower 2 will be launched within the year.

both towers command beautiful scenic views of the metropolitan skyline. residents enjoy exclusivity with the avida amenities located at the podium (fourth level).

Ayala launches condo project

By Katlene O. Cacho

AYALA subsidiary Avida Land Corp. launched yesterday its first condominium project in Cebu City, which will soon rise at the Asiatown IT Park.

Avida Towers Cebu is also the first Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) condominium community in the Visayas-Mindanao.

Click here for Election 2010 updates

Avida president and chief executive officer Leo Montenegro, in a press briefing yesterday, said the company has earmarked a total investment of P5 billion this year, of which P2.2 billion will be for developing in-city condominiums.

Of the amount, P1.4 billion is set aside for the development of Avida Towers Cebu.

“This condominium project will complete the amenities in the Asiatown IT Park,” Montenegro said, citing the presence of business process outsourcing (BPO) and information technology (IT) companies in the IT Park.

Avida has launched 18 towers over the years in four key cities in Metro Manila. It will expand in the Vis-Min area with Cebu as its strategic entry point.

Avida Towers Cebu will feature two towers that sit on a 6,262-square meter property. It will include studio (approximately 22 sq. m.), one-bedroom (approximately 36 sq.m.) and 2-bedroom units (approximately 53 sq.m.) with a price range of P1.6 million to P4.4 million.

It will have 1,045 units once completed, with 518 units in the first tower. Avida also features amenities such as a clubhouse, swimming pool and gym. , , ,

Avida lines up P5B in projects (http://www.bworldonline.com/main/content.php?id=12674)

CEBU CITY -- Avida Land, Inc. is spending P5 billion this year on various projects, including a new residential condominium in Cebu and subdivisions in Iloilo and Bacolod.

Avida, the wholly owned subsidiary of Ayala Land, Inc. for “affordable” property development projects, yesterday launched Avida Towers Cebu at Asiatown IT Park, highlighting Ayala Land’s more aggressive foray into the Visayas and Mindanao areas.

The launching of Avida Towers Cebu brings Asiatown IT Park, a 29-hectare industrial park developed by Ayala-led Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corp., closer to becoming a “fully integrated community” with commercial and residential components.

“The whole objective here is to make sure that we will put in one single location all facilities where people can live, work and play,” Mr. Aquino said.

Avida is also looking for properties outside Cebu City that may be developed into residential subdivisions.

“We’re looking for areas where we can expand and undertake subdivision projects. But that will be outside the city already because properties within the city are expensive,” Mr. Montenegro said.

Mr. Montenegro said the take-up rates in all Avida projects, especially condominium units, have been high.

“The market is upbeat probably because the economy is recovering and more people are opting to get a condominium unit instead of a land-and-house development that is usually located far from their workplace. But even our subdivision projects are also fast-selling,” he added.

In Cebu, the first of two 25-storey buildings that compose Avida Towers will be completed in 2013 while the second will be completed about three years after it is launched.

The first tower, which is estimated to cost P1.4 billion, will have 518 units that fetch a minimum of P1.6 million for a studio. As of yesterday, about 30% of the units have been sold.

Avida Towers Cebu is a joint development project with Asian I-Office Properties, Inc., a special purpose vehicle created by Ayala Land and Cebu Property Ventures.

Asian I-Office recently launched eBloc 2, another mid-rise BPO building within Asiatown. The first eBloc, which was completed last year, is fully occupied.

^^ wow.. kuha ka ug unit sa tower 2 bai?
I hope bai. :)

Tower #1 . . . 518 units
Tower #2 . . . 527 units

Mas daghan unit ang tower #2 :)

Yeah. According to the latest report, Tower 1 turnover is on 2013. Tower 2 is 2016 yet. murag dugay-dugay pa jud.

the only difference between tower 1 and 2 is its ground floor layout where most indoor amenities are found at tower 1. thus, lesser garden units available at tower 1 ground level vs tower 2.

I hope bai. :)



Yeah. According to the latest report, Tower 1 turnover is on 2013. Tower 2 is 2016 yet. murag dugay-dugay pa jud.

tower 2 may be launched sooner than expected after getting a positive response from the market and good sales take-up.

I hope bai. :)



Yeah. According to the latest report, Tower 1 turnover is on 2013. Tower 2 is 2016 yet. murag dugay-dugay pa jud.

dili seguro at rust.. kay ang ingon nila.. the tower will be completed in three years time.. so since tower 1 is launched na, so expected it will be turned over in 2013, then ang other tower will also be turned over 3 years after it will be launched. Since the take up of tower 1 is quiet high and in fact, according to our friend vatics wala na gani daw available sa tower 1 kay pulos na naka reserve, then we will expect that tower 2 will be soon launched even within the year ra sad..... so might be.. dungan dungan ra jud na sila.... :)

ah oo, my bad. Tower 2 turnover is 3 years after it will be launched, and not after the completion of Tower 1 as I initially thought. :)

and are they on time with their projects. are they sure they're going to be able to open sa expected date?

the only difference between tower 1 and 2 is its ground floor layout where most indoor amenities are found at tower 1. thus, lesser garden units available at tower 1 ground level vs tower 2.

^^Thanks sa explanation of the number of units difference, Chard. :banana2:

Ayala fast tracks Avida construction (http://www.philstar.com/Article.aspx?articleId=590757&publicationSubCategoryId=108)
(The Freeman) Updated July 06, 2010 12:00 AM

CEBU, Philippines - The strong take-up of units of the Ayala-developed condominium project Avida, prompted the developer to fast track the construction five months ahead of schedule.

The Avida Towers Cebu, located at the Asiatown IT Park in Lahug, is the first affordable Ayala condominium community in the region.

“Avida Land is looking forward to reaching (out to) more Filipinos with its strategic geographic expansion. Cebu, being one of the most dynamic cities in the Philippines and strategically located at the center of the archipelago, will be the home to Avida’s first venture in the VisMin region,” states Leo Montenegro, president and CEO of Avida Land Corporation.

Montenegro said since the selling period started last June 2, Avida Towers Cebu received an overwhelming response from the market. In fact, the tower sold units within three days. The first of the two towers of Avida is currently 60% sold out.

Avida Towers Cebu was launched last June 15 with over 600 guests. It is a joint venture project of Avida Land Corporation and Asian I Office Properties (AIO).

AIO is a subsidiary of Cebu Property Ventures and Development Corporation which owns and manages Asiatown IT Park.

Avida Land Corp. is the affordable property developer of Ayala Land Inc. Its success in providing quality homes with an affordable price has been proven in the 32 projects and about 26,000 house and lot and condominium units in Luzon since it first started in 1990.

Hosting 13,000 full-time jobs mostly from leading BPO in the country, Asiatown IT Park in Lahug, Cebu City is the top IT space provider in the region. It is the ideal address for many Cebuanos and thousands others who have come to call the resort-island their home.

Positioned to address the needs of a growing market in Cebu, Avida Towers Cebu redefines life with exciting options for its future residents to enjoy the benefits of Home, Office and Play inside the most vibrant address in town for young professionals and families.

It offers 518 units equipped with telephone, cable and internet, as well as fire protection systems.

With Ayala’s superior brand of property management through Ayala Property Management Corporation, Avida Towers Cebu will be well-maintained to ensure value appreciation.

The two towers which will provide a total of over a thousand condominium units are designed with amenities for the community to enjoy like adult and children’s swimming pool, clubhouse with function room, children’s play area, an outdoor gym, garden area and jogging path.

Avida Towers Cebu has Studio, 1-Bedroom and 2-Bedroom units with a price range of P1.6 to P4.4M. Interested buyers may avail of these units for a monthly amortization that is as low as P14, 500.

Avida Land Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) will invest approximately P5 billion this year, P2.2 billion of which is expected to be allocated for the development of in-city condominiums, including its latest project in Cebu.

The Cebu project, which is in partnership with the Asian I Office (AIO), will incur the company about P1.4 billion expenditure spread in the construction of the two towers, Montenegro said.

unsa may maayo sa duha? Avida or Calyx..? Nagsugod na ang construction sa both ?

^^ yes, both in under construction . . .

unsa may maayo sa duha? Avida or Calyx..? Nagsugod na ang construction sa both ?

both projects are equally good in terms of location and investment wise. avida has an edge in terms of performance since the project developer is ayala land, a known leader in property development and has track record in delivering projects on time.

calyx, on the other hand, is the first residential condo venture of innoland, a cebuano developer who owns the TGU tower in asiatown i.t. park.

^^ much better pa ni nga design for Avida Cebu IMO

http://img339.imageshack.us/img339/2650/eminence35re.jpg

Pede na nato kopyahon na design, jar?

dili man feasible ang kanang design nimo @jarenz for avida kay "affordable o mid-end" man type sa ilang project...dili high-end. basin sa ayala premier or alveo pwede siguro na nga design. murag naa siya similarity sa padgett place IMO.

^ tamaaaa! :lol:

Diba ang Avida design walay mga balkonahe, ang high-end ra manaay mga balkonahe. :)

Pede na nato kopyahon na design, jar?

copy lang . . .

Diba ang Avida design walay mga balkonahe, ang high-end ra manaay mga balkonahe. :)

naa may mid-end projects na naay balcony pero depende pod na sa builder/developer like la guardia flats. additional cost naman gud na basta naay balcony kay per sq.meter or sq.ft. man ang price sa mga condo units.

does anyone know when mag pre sale for the second building? Naa na ba news bahin sa second building at all

^^ no official announcement yet on the 2nd tower release of units but expect there will be priority selling. if you already bought a unit in any of ayala land projects, then you'll be given priority to select 2nd tower units before its official release.

we really advice buyers to buy at least a unit in any ayala land projects so that they'll be included in the priority list whenever new and exciting projects are announced by ayala land. even if you plan to reserve and submit your letter of intent as early as now to buy the topmost units, you'll still be given the 3rd priority schedule to choose units since ayala land always prioritizes their loyal customers. it is about time you invest now and get the chance to be included in the priority list to select best units when new projects are announced. if not now, when?

tinuod na na Avida does not own the lot that they are in? the property is under a deed of donation kay airport bya na sa una. then SC recently ruled that deeds of donation has to be honored. hmmmm mao kaha ng temporary LTS ra sila?

^ sorry but what's LTS?

^^ di kaha Lease To Sale

^^I think it's License to Sell

good investment gyud ni da... just wondering kong, how much kaha ang potential rental rate sa mga studio type diha at this location... sa Calyx or sa Avida ?? na-a kay idea bay ?

backhoe is present in the site . . .

I'm wondering when they're gonna start pre-selling the Ayala condo near Ayala Mall Cebu, if there really are plans of building there

^ i think they have yet to launch the project...you're referring to Alveo condo...right?

^ sorry but what's LTS?

Its license to sell. a license which HLURB gives to developers authorizing them to sell a property. Avida was given temporary license to sell because of the their problem in the lot that they are occupying

^^ that means a setback for Avida?....do buyers know about this?

^^A very valid concern, bai Diehard. :)

It would be better if somebody connected with Avida will try to clarify this LTS thing here.

unsa man diay issue sa lote nila?

^^ agree ko ana bai @sleep because bai @zoe is not even sure with his statement (see his previous post)...we need to clear things up so as not to misled any potential buyers of Avida...i'm worried because a lot of buyers get their info from this website...

..paging @christie or @vatics!

Its license to sell. a license which HLURB gives to developers authorizing them to sell a property. Avida was given temporary license to sell because of the their problem in the lot that they are occupying

@zoe: kindly clarify this issue because as far as i know, issuance of the temporary license to sell to developers is already HLURB's standard procedure if the project has not yet been fully completed. HLURB will only issue a full license to sell when the project is already erected and completed.

giving temporary license to sell will avoid the common practice of some developers who have no track record yet to validly pre-sell their projects and present to buyers that they are reputable because they have been granted a full license to sell by HLURB. now, HLURB avoids that practice.

Sir Richard (the Lionheart), once you settled it in private, do you think it is possible for you to come back here and clarify this thing, to clear those doubts/confusion from potential buyers who happened to read something from SSC.

I will inquire my friend who work for Ayala and his cousin is his supervisor. They are my neighbors in Cebu.

sure. we need to be transparent and no biases in any of the projects we promote here. we are here to encourage investments to further spur growth in our beloved Cebu.

Chard bai, this was the answers I got from my friend who work for Ayala Holding about Avida.

"Hi Fred, these are the answers:

1. TLS was given since AVIDA still have to comply the minimum 1 storey completion requirements before issuing the LTS

2. The same answer as no. 1. we are expecting the release of LTS before December this year.

3. The new HLURB director is just following the correct procedure of issuance of LTS unlike before that this has been shortcutted and we don't do under the table transactions in order to secure permits unlike other developers.

Diin diay ni gikan nga mga questions Fred? I'm sure these are coming from our competitors. Other developers are very bullish when it comes to marketing their product and many time unethical. All we can say that we a reputable treact record of delivering our products and services to our clients and to prove that, 30-40% of our projects were purchased by our repeat buyers. Meaning, they are contented from the product they bought from us. Thanks. "

"Since launching last June 15, we are now almost 80% sold out from the 518 units offerred and expected to launch tower 2 next month because the public is demanding it. From this, you can see the trust and confidence of the public from our product while others are strugling to sell all their inventories. "

:banana: :banana: :banana2: :cheers2: :)

NEXT MONTH, POSSIBLE NA NGA I-LAUNCH ANG TOWER 2? :banana: :cheers:

Wow....... Now.. Avida is Talking... .. and I believe Tower 2.. will also suffer the same fate as the Tower 1........ 80-90% booked on its first months pa lang... hehehehe

About Avida Land

Brand Evolution
- Ayala Land, Inc. was originally associated with high-end projects. However, Ayala Land Inc. has expanded the reach of its businesses to serve a much broader segment of the population: from the very rich, to the young and fast rising achievers, to the hardworking middle class who form the backbone of the nation. One such subsidiary was Laguna Properties Holdings Inc. (LPHI).

- LPHI was originally established in 1990 to provide the housing needs of employees and junior executives in the Ayala Land-developed industrial estate, The Laguna Technopark. But the former LPHI had outgrown its original name. Today, it already has 32 projects in 21 locations. In 2005, the name Laguna Properties Holdings, Inc. was changed to Avida Land Corp. Short for “Ave” or “celebrate” and “vida” which means “life”, this new name is more in tune with Ayala Land’s commitment to transform the lives of the hardworking middle class.


Brand Promise
- The brand promise of Avida stems from the brand promise of the parent company, Ayala Land, which is “Enhancing Land, Enriching Lives.”

- Avida focuses on enriching the lives of the hardworking middle class by offering their families a home to be proud of one that is nestled in a peaceful and safe community, accessible to public transportation, beautifully and practically designed, and one that will prove reliable performance over time.

Avida Cebu launch advanced by a year due to brisk sales
Written by Wilfredo Rodolfo III / Reporter
Thursday, 30 September 2010 14:06

CEBU CITY—Avida Towers Cebu is advancing the launch of its second condominium tower in the city by a year, following superb uptake numbers on its development at the Asiatown IT Park.

Ryan Ybañez, the associate manager for project development, said there are only 34 units left of the 518 total of Avida Towers Cebu Tower 1, which was launched in June.

“The market is really warming up after the financial crisis of 2009,” he said. With the new schedule, both Towers 1 and 2 could be ready for delivery by 2013. Avida is the middle-income condominium brand of Ayala Land.

While Avida projects in Manila average a sale of 25 units monthly, the Cebu project is hitting 125 units a month. And the units are taken up mostly by local buyers with expatriate Filipinos—a major market of real-estate projects—just barely learning about the project through Avida’s road shows overseas

Tower 2 will be composed of 527 units and offers a great view of Asiatown IT Park as well as proximity to the development’s amenities like the swimming pools, clubhouse and function rooms.

The project was initially targeted for launch in September 2011. The project is Avida Land Corp.’s first vertical condominium project outside Luzon.

Avida Towers Cebu is a joint-venture project of Avida and Asian I-Office, a subsidiary of Cebu Property Ventures Development Corp.

------------------------------------------------------------------------

So karon najud na year gi-launch ang Tower 2? So instead nga Sept. of 2011 pa........... 2010 na! Yepee! Cebu's real estate is showing it's strength!:banana:

And the units are taken up mostly by local buyers with expatriate Filipinos—a major market of real-estate projects—just barely learning about the project through Avida’s road shows overseas

Apil na seguro ana bai ang imong gipalit.

^^soon...hehehehe

Wow, this just shows that there's still huge untapped market in Cebu. And the Ayala brand doesn't hurt either. I wouldn't be surprised if they launched a new Avida tower next year :)

^^ ang effect ani...other projects sa Ayala like Alveo, Premiere and Amaia, possibly i-launch nila earlier than the scheduled date of launching... :okay:

...by the way, nice one @sinj! :)

thanks for the info @sinj! very informative! :cheers:

Mao ni ang resulta when you fuse the Ayala Brand with the Cebu brand. Hehehe.

^^:yes::okay:

dah....kuratan sila sa cebu....ing-ani na ka aggressive ang market ug ang ekonomiya sa cebu...so dapat magtukod jud silag daghan nga high rise....

thanks to all the people who posted pics of the working site. but it looks like they haven't made any improvements at all. the pics shows the same thing just at the different times. i would have thought a pole was up or something along those lines since they have started since june.

don't expect to have the contractors work so fast since delivery date is still 2013 or 3 years from now. just wait and relax. these twin towers will be up before some buyers and investors get to pay in full.

right... actually Avida Towers is progressing so fast which is not expected.
AFAIK, construction should have been expected on the first quarter next year but had been advanced for a couple of months.

^^ And not to mention that they are working on basement levels which is the most agonizing construction pace to wait for. 2011 is the year that we could expect some above-grade work :)

:ohno:



Chard bai, this was the answers I got from my friend who work for Ayala Holding about Avida.

"Hi Fred, these are the answers:

1. TLS was given since AVIDA still have to comply the minimum 1 storey completion requirements before issuing the LTS

2. The same answer as no. 1. we are expecting the release of LTS before December this year.

3. The new HLURB director is just following the correct procedure of issuance of LTS unlike before that this has been shortcutted and we don't do under the table transactions in order to secure permits unlike other developers.

Diin diay ni gikan nga mga questions Fred? I'm sure these are coming from our competitors. Other developers are very bullish when it comes to marketing their product and many time unethical. All we can say that we a reputable treact record of delivering our products and services to our clients and to prove that, 30-40% of our projects were purchased by our repeat buyers. Meaning, they are contented from the product they bought from us. Thanks. "

"Since launching last June 15, we are now almost 80% sold out from the 518 units offerred and expected to launch tower 2 next month because the public is demanding it. From this, you can see the trust and confidence of the public from our product while others are strugling to sell all their inventories. "

^^ Correct. Besides an Avida-style design no longer looks great at let's say above 35 storeys ... you wouldn't want your tallest building to look ordinary.

^^ Correct. Besides an Avida-style design no longer looks great at let's say above 35 storeys ... you wouldn't want your tallest building to look ordinary.

mao gyud, any taller and it will look like some cheap apartment/government housing complex...Cebu's tallest should look striking, with lots of glass and maybe some sexy curves or a signature spire, so far, i couldn't recall any proposals that look like that, but i believe we wont have to wait long for one to come up, one could probably be in the drawing boards right now...

Mga bai basta residential diba taas man ang floor to ceiling na height?

So perhaps this 25-storey residential building will have the equivalent height of a 30-storey office tower or more?

^^ang office ana taas bai, ang residential low ceiling nuon..ehehe

^^ang office ana taas bai, ang residential low ceiling nuon..ehehe


Murag mas taas cguro ang residential bai ui. Bati ipuyo ug condo na ubos kaayo ceiling, huot kaayo, hehehe..


..

Mas taas ang average floor-to-ceiling sa office tower kaysa residential tower :)

a typical low-end or mid-end residential unit normally has a standard floor-to-ceiling height requirement of 2.1 meters (refer to national building code of the phils.). high-end residential units normally demand a higher floor-to-ceiling height like joya with loft units measuring 9 meters floor-to-ceiling height.

^^I agree. Taas ang office floor to ceiling height tungud sa mga air ducks for Aircon & ventilation central systems. Ang condo/residential are mostly no air ducks kai window type ang aircon, aside as what @vatics said.

are you serious this condo will only be around 7 feet tall from floor to ceiling. i hope not. it should be a little higher.

@mark24...what i said is the standard FTC height of low-to-mid end condo units as per national building code.

mao nay minimum code nila from ftc wa ray 7 ft gani unsa mani joke3x mao niy bayran natug milyonis...paita gud d i anang mga low to mid end condos maau unta na atleast man lang 9 ft ang standard sa ftc height...

mao nay minimum code nila from ftc wa ray 7 ft gani unsa mani joke3x mao niy bayran natug milyonis...paita gud d i anang mga low to mid end condos maau unta na atleast man lang 9 ft ang standard sa ftc height...

of course, ayala land and other major developers do have their own standard ftc height for their condo projects which is above the required ftc height set in the national building code. residential apartments normally follow the national building code. please note the standard set by the building code is the minimum requirement (not the maximum or limit). thus, every wise buyer is advised to ask questions before buying. impulse buying in real estate is strongly discouraged as it would cost you millions if you commit a mistake. consult a property expert to get sound advice.

2.1 meters is just the typical height of a door...

2.1 meters for the door is more realistic not for the height of floor to ceiling. so does anyone know what is the exact measurement for the floor to ceiling in avida

Is it me or does it look like they are in fact starting with Tower 2. Look at the illustrations on the Avida website: http://www.avidaland.com/Avida-towers-cebu.php

great! third investment is not bad but more would be better for you and cebu. more investors mean more developments.

when investing in real estate, you need to put your investment not in one location only. there are different kinds of buyers and you might as well explore projects that cater to these kind of buyers.

i wonder if they will finish before 2013. maybe mid 2012. i hope. i purchase one of these condos too and id like to be able to use it as soon as possible. and like OnioT said thank you for this forum and for the people who post pic this is the only place i get to keep track of avida since i'm not in cebu.this is my first investment so hopefully it'll be a success cuz if so then i'll be willing to invest elsewhere

Salamat bai vatics sa imong advice. ATC is my first condo investment and I never hesitated getting a unit for obvious reasons -the developer, the location, and the price.
I also totally agree with you that real estate investments must be diversified. Ganahan pa ko mo-invest more labi na gyud nga daghan kaayo ron mga nindot nga projects diha sa Cebu. Katabang gyud kaau ning SSC forums kay ma update ta sa mga bago ug future projects, napa gyud tay makatunan sa mga forumers like bai vatics. :)

that is true. while you're still working for the money now, you'll need to plan ahead for your future and lay the foundation to set-up your money machine while you still can.

real estate investments are good money machines. the more you get to acquire more real estate the bigger your assets and more equity for your next investment venture. it is important though that acquired assets should be income-generating otherwise they'll become a liability.

do remember that it is easier to borrow from banks when you own a piece of real estate. the most secure form of investment is always real estate even it times of high inflation and crisis. the most common piece of investment you'll find wealthy people can't get hands off is real estate. if you can't get your hands off in real estate then your future is bright as you'll be lining in the likes of donald trump and henry sy.

I used to think that real estate are dead investments because it's not as liquid as 'say business, bank funds or stocks. But I consider this as long term, low-risk high-yield investments and would probably make money the time I retire. I still don't have any idea on condo units if it's profitable to rent it out in Cebu. Still have to wait a few more years and anxiously waiting for my Avida unit. Maybe bai vatics you can shed light on how condo rentals are performing there in Cebu.... and how you can make real estate investments as good money machines.

Real estate investments are not dead investments, if only you know how to utilize them wisely.

First, you need to plan before making such an investment. You need to identify the purpose of buying after which you'll be guided on what steps to take to make that investment work for you.

Second, when you have identified your purpose and made a plan don't hesitate to execute such plan. lack of action translates to loss opportunity. remember you have to deal with risk as most investors do. only the risk takers get what they want and make good money.

Third, executing such an investment plan requires thorough knowledge by calculating the risk involved. Part of an investment plan is how to get sound advice to help you make a sound decision. This is where experts become your partners.

Knowledge of the market and a good property are all the things you need to make an investment work for you.

wa man nitubo

^ is that other side?

^^ Looks like. I pass by Avida Alabang (almost identical in size and twin tower project too) almost everyday and I can't help but notice that Avida Cebu seems to be at a much slower construction pace. Perhaps is it because the manpower is divided with foundation works for tower 2?

ATC will soon catch up. It may be slower in its construction now but the project's sales are brisk than any other Avida project in the country. The podium normally takes longer to build to hold the twin towers each tower standing 24 storey's high above the podium.

you just take note that ATC is itself advance by a few months since it was started earlier than the original timetable of FQ 2011..
