Rising soon, but where? Find out here. News and updates will be posted here. All contributions and information bits from other people-in-the-know are very much welcome here.

This will be located along Yakal St., Makati... Anyone knows where exactly? Something tells me it will be at the corner of Pasong Tamo, wala lang, just gut instinct, but I could be wrong. So is there a vacant lot on that corner?

@thomasian, the location of this project could be the corner vacant lot that's bounded by GJ Puyat Avenue, Pasong Tamo & YAKAL Street. Just my opinion, so I could be wrong. Have not been to that place for a long, long time now, but the last time I saw it, that corner lot was vacant but fenced up.

Maybe somebody could check it out?

More Power!

Could be. Thanks for the info. This thread has been quiet for some time, I hope I get more feedback on this.

Could definitely use possible floor count, etc.

You mean near The Columns?

sana don na lang sa kulay PINK na building nila nilagay.. nang ma demolish na yung eye sore na yun..

so after Lagazpi Columns, we got this. there are currenly 2 possible locations i got in mind. one is at the intersection of Tordesillas and Buendia Avenue. the location is currently on demolition but at present, there's no visible activity.

the second one is very near the columns along Buendia. There's a huge lot near the Golf Club (that one used by Sugarboy in his avatar before). Fence is saying demolition permit...etc...So that could be the place. last night, there were half dozen of dump tracks near the area. that's several meters away from where Columns is.

If this is Avida, then it won't be too near the Community innovations projects, maghahalohalo ang branding nila. It's possible near Pasong tamo/Yakal area as there are lots of old factories with big sites there and this would be a good fit for this kind of project. Smaller units in the 2m and less range. Sama sama sila ni Cityland near the riles hehe.

has not CI changed their name to Avida? I'm a bit confused. :) But that is the only feasible loc i know at the moment. We'll, i have to look further.

Laguna Properties Holdings Inc. (LPHI) was originally established in 1991 to provide for 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 27 projects in 13 locations.

In 2006, the name Laguna Properties Holdings, Inc. was changed to Avida Land Corp. Shorts 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.

^^ yup! all three are Ayala Land subsidiaries... three different companies handling projects and markets of three different price categories/ranges

has not CI changed their name to Avida? I'm a bit confused. :) But that is the only feasible loc i know at the moment. We'll, i have to look further.

i think Community Innovation and Avida is both subsidiary of ayala land... :D

ok, that helps. i'm enlightened. thanks @ tcchua. :)

it will have 462 units...

2 to 3 projects a year

Avida will launch two to three projects a year in new locations nationwide. It offers pieces of property ranging from P500,000 to P2.5 million.

This is supposed to be @ corners of Malugay, Yakal and Lumbayao streets.

Its ugly. good thing it isn't that tall

OK naman ang design mala modern na ewan. masmaganda sana kung itatayo ito malapit sa the columns ayala ave or sa may bay area :)

Commie housing and grabe baha diyan.

Lets see kung mura then at least they're doing a public service.

sumusunod na ata ang avida sa yapak ng cityland., :)

In terms of branding, pricing and designs, Avida caters to a different market from Community Innovations Inc. (CII). Expect more affordable units here in Avida Towers Makati compared to CII projects IMO.

CII caters to the mid-income market while Ayala Land Premier is their top tier brand.

The design looks very CII to me, it doesn't reflect the previous Avida designs at all.

It looks like this will be two towers based on this.

http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e289/sikatuna/avida_makati1.jpg

From what I received, the price range is between P1.40M – P5.0M.
Studio Unit (approx. 20 - 25 sqm)
1 Bedroom Unit (approx. 33 - 38 sqm)
2 Bedroom Unit (approx. 48 - 50 sqm)

I think this is comparable in pricing and sizing to their other Avida projects.

From Avida:

Tower 1, a 26-storey building, has an amenity space at the ground floor. On the next 3 floors, there will be parking areas with a total of 81 slots. The remaining 22 floors will be for the 462 residential units. There will be 21 residential units per floor: Studio, 1-Bedroom and 2-Bedroom. Balcony units are also available on designated units

Hi @terrapin... can you orient us please? Is that Yakal St. on the left, Malugay on the right and Lumbayao at the bottom?

[QUOTE=tcchua;13578306]Hi @terrapin... can you orient us please? Is that Yakal St. on the left, Malugay on the right and Lumbayao at the bottom?

Yes, you are correct.:okay:

Mukha nga avida ang design. Sa subdivision plang nila commie block pare-pareho lang kc ang bahay. Thats why they have the Avida brand, that way the Ayala name does not get tarnished with lackluster design.

commie block nga tingnan. :ohno: pero sa top view, two towers naman pala sya. hmmm... let's wait for the floor plans. the color is not too bad 4 me, though... reserve judgment then.:)

Design not too bad IMO... it has some similarities with Columns Ayala. Who is the architect of this one?

actually the design is not to bad, i've seen worst =) i kinna like the what they did on the upper most part of the building...

looks nice

ano prices nya? similar kaya sya sa avida new manila? but of course i know na baka mas mataas sya since makati.

hi, superboy! i think u will hav 2 w8 4 someone 2 pm u the prices and payment schemes of the project. in another thread, i was curious as well 4 said info but was told these are not really allowed to stop sellers from hijacking the forum for their own vested interests. :)

>> in the end though, me nakakalusot din but coated with the utmost finesse he he. :lol:

>> that is the art and i, for one, am a great admirer of great art and artists, he he!! :)

hahaha. i agree! maganda rin kasing nasa thread so kahit late ka na pumasok into the project, you would have an idea kung magkano sya say two years ago. that way, may tool ka when dealing with sales people.

This has similarities to Serendra IMO. Not too bad for a cheap development.

This has similarities to Serendra IMO. Not too bad for a cheap development.

Yeah I agree and as I mentioned earlier this looks a bit like Columns Ayala too. Ayala's signature look perhaps?

Avida set to fill gap in Makati condo market
Business Mirror / Thursday, 5 July 2007

Avida Land recently entered into a joint venture with Equimark-NFC Development Corp. to construct a residential complex in a strategic Makati location.

New standards for residential condominium development in the affordable segment will be introduced by Avida Land in Makati City. The Ayala Land subsidiary will banner effective property management, a hallmark of all Ayala Land properties.



AVIDA Land Corp. and Equimark- NFC Development Corp. recently formed a joint venture for the development of a 16,400-sq-m property in Makati to be launched by the third quarter of 2007. Seated: NFC-Equimark’s Romeo J. Pulido, Aristotle L. Villaraza, Li LianYuan and Sergio L. Naranjilla; and Avida officers Leo M. Montenegro and Steve J. Dy.



According to Chris Maglanoc, Avida vice president for project development, Avida will fill a gap in the Makati market where escalating land prices have put well-managed developments beyond the reach of the mid-income group. While a number of developers offer units below P1 million, residents of the upcoming Avida Makati Towers are assured of value for their money with 24/7 security, well-maintained services and amenities, and units that have natural lighting and good ventilation.

The Ayala Property Management Corp., which manages all the Ayala properties, will provide property management services to the proposed Avida condo project.

Maglanoc noted: “Residing in Makati will offer a leap in quality of life for mid-income families. Living in Makati will result in proximity to the headquarters of the country’s top businesses, schools and other destinations. It will mean less time on the road traveling to these destinations and more time for one’s self and loved ones.”

It will also mean that a very active lifestyle awaits its residents. “Finally condo unit buyers in search of excellent location and quality developments will have it all in Avida’s newest development in Makati. The city has everything they need—aside from offices, it has malls, bars, the best restaurants and a very diverse and exhilarating set of commercial establishments,” said Maglanoc.

guys how true is it that condo units on that side (including Columns) are appraised with a surprisingly low price? perhaps soon including this one.

is it because of the nearby cemetery?

Baka dahal bahain. But I think that Ayala and the Makati City local government will do something about it. In the end, bargain mo makukuha yung investment mo. Pero eventually may matinding upside pag nasolve yung flooding concern ng mga banks.

i think it's on the zoning issue.

guys how true is it that condo units on that side (including Columns) are appraised with a surprisingly low price? perhaps soon including this one.

>>@tebs, what do you mean appraised at low price? one can buy a unit at a lower price for a makati condo? or the appraisal is lower than what you actually pay for the unit? if it's the former, then it's sort of good news... :) thx!!

hi Jr. the appraisal is lower than what you actually paid for. :)

zoning issues? what zoning issues?

do you think it's worth investing on this project?
im planning to acquire one bed-room unit...
they say if you'll buy an Ayala-managed property,
u don't need to worry because of good maintenance.
do you think it applies on this avida makati?
what do you think is the downside of this project?

what aspect naman kaya sila ng building bumawi
bakit medyo mababa ang prices? have you seen
any previous avida condos before? how do you rate
those condos?

Just passed by Malugay awhile ago... the signage on the gate is already there and it says "Avida Towers Makati West". Ang galing nga e ang gate finished na.

Hi athanism :wave: I hope you don't mind me replying, but having worked for Ayala my entire life (well, almost) means that you surely are putting your money where it's worth. I won't even try to sell you anything; just let me put you in the facts - since Avida is the affordable segment of AyalaLand, your affordability is their primary concern. Given this reason, you can fairly expect decent finishes that you can get from 1M+, but you cannot expect highly luxurious finishes like what we normally offer in AyalaLand Premiere. What you can expect is rather the peace of mind and convenience that you have APMC (Ayala Property Management Corp) to take care of the overall maintenance of your unit, a smooth turnover/delivery of your unit, and long term appreciation value of your investment. With the price of 1M, I honestly think that it's already a good bonus considering you won't find that added bonus elsewhere. I mean others can simply claim they also have this in-house property manager as well but looking at our track records, we have the longest running property manager so far. And this is I think what sets us apart from the others - all of our deliveries have been reasonably smooth and well taken cared of even if the broker who sold you your unit already forgot about you.


Should you wish to avail of the investor services though for a fee, here's what you can expect from them. APMC looks for your possible tenants, screen them (if they're good payors and in good moral character), process the tenant fit-in and move in, collect rental payments IN YOUR BEHALF and submit it to you with a monthly/quarterly report, plus pay your condo dues and taxes then bill you later. I honestly think that that is an added convenience especially if you're a balikbayan worker abroad.



The downside, well, I'd rather be safe in saying "To each his own" ;) Ganito, let me just give you some valid concerns. Look at the floorplan and look at the ratio of the number of units per floor corresponding to the number of elevators. If you've got about 50 units per floor with 2 very slow elevators, that's gonna cause a real inconvenience for you or for your tenant. If you don't have a garbage chute every floor or if this is not gonna be well covered as per floorplan, screw it. Look also at the dimensions of the unit as per the unit layout for your convenience, baka naman the bathroom is too tiny. Also look the security features of the whole building. All Avida Towers naman planned from 2000 onwards are equipped with reliable the security features and the sanitation requirements. Just look closely at the floorplans and layouts and look for the fire exits, sprinklers, fire alarms, garbage chute, etc. I suggest you look at Avida Towers New Manila, Avida Towers San Lazaro, and the later towers Avida Towers Sucat for comparison. You may check them at www.atayala.com but for brief details lang. Personally I like Avida San Lazaro and New Manila for its location and masterplanning, I'd have to tell you though that with Sucat you have to lower your expectations.


Hope this helps. Let us know what you think. ;)

how much ba ang unit here?

^^Gusto ko rin malaman,masyadong blan kasi yung info na binibigay ng mga agents parang pati sila hindi sigurado...

^^ mitch I cant see the pics,any idea whats the price range?, both for studio and 2 bedrooms sana kung pwede.


hey :wave: studio around 1M. I doubt if they will offer 900K studio units like what they did with New Manila and San Lazaro coz this one's Makati. 2br mga 3M up. Will be reposting the scant pics in a while ;)

Yey! okey na ang pics! 20-25sqm studio @ 1m? Okey considering some Cityland units are being sold at 18sqm at 900k, sa tingin niyo po how much kaya ang rental value niyan upon completion considering its in Yakal.

I just curious how much will a studio or a 1 bedroom unit rent out?
Like for Avida makati and new manila?

Hmm...difficult to ascertain coz Tower 2 New Manila will be delivered 2008 and Avida Makati by 2010. Depending on the market rates by 2010, we're estimating it at 10K/mo unfurnished and 12-15k furnished.


Sir and Ma'ams, estimates lang po ha.. ;)

will 0% dp schemes be applicable here? sa avida new manila kasi may interest na agad ang downpayment eh. with almost all developers offering 0 interest dp schemes nowadays, will avida follows?

really? i thought no interest yung DP nila... :ohno:

This is for a studio or 1 Bedroom?
Studio is mga 1M? sq.m?
Bedroom is? sq.m?

Maganda ba ang rental prospects in that area at that
price range?

Good location if you are a clubber.. Walking distance to Warehouse 135 :banana:

two elevators for the entire building? ooh that is a nightmare.
or maybe since they're not that tall they want you to use stairs.

Good location if you are a clubber.. Walking distance to Warehouse 135 :banana:

I knew this will come up soner or later :lol: :banana: :lol:

or maybe since they're not that tall they want you to use stairs.

:lol:
i think people would still prefer an elevator kahit 10 storey lang aakyatin nila.

I knew this will come up soner or later :lol: :banana: :lol:

Hehe :cheers:

Hi :wave: studio kasi on going rates now are at 10k. 1br at 35 sqm is usually rented at 15k, then 2br at 50 sqm is usually at 18-20k. These are the good ones ha, not the inferior ones, and the rental rate is usually based on the size of the unit and the area. Since this is Yakal the rates are almost similar with Pasong Tamo, and anywhere in Makati is rentable since, it's still the country's financial capital and we don't see a possible shortage of office workers by then. BGC won't be as progressive yet as Makati by 2010 - that's the only time that most of the commercial buildings will be turned over.


This is just our observation ha. We look at BGC kasi now and honestly, there's going to be an oversupply of condo units to be rented out compared to the projected demand for jobs there. Then compare that to Makati, atleast Makati has long been established and for 50 years now, it's still the most progressive city.

:D

Avida allots P7B in 4-yr development binge
By Honey Madrilejos-Reyes
BusinessMirror
July 18, 2007

AVIDA Land Corp., the mid-market housing unit of Ayala Land Inc., is spending P7 billion over the next four years to develop residential condominium units in key cities around Metro Manila.

President Leo M. Montenegro told reporters Tuesday, the planned investment will be bankrolled by internally generated cash and funds from pre-selling activities.

He said the plan is put on stream 16 residential towers from 2007 to 2011 in existing Avida sites, like Sucat, Paranaque; Sta. Cruz, Manila; New Manila, Quezon City; and Makati City. Each tower will average 375 units or 6,000 units in all.

Since entering the mid-market in 2003, Avida has built 2,520 units. This year, the company is rolling out 1,800 residential units via various projects.

Among these is the 861-unit Avida Towers Makati West, or the block along Malugay, Yakal and Lumbayao Streets in San Antonio Village, Makati.

The newest project, according to Montenegro, will be formally launched on July 19.

Avida Towers Makati, which will rise on a 6400-square meter property, will have two towers. Development of the said project will cost around P1 billion.

Buyers of Avida Towers Makati may select a studio, and one- and two-bedroom units, as well as garden and penthouse units. Prices range from P1.5 to P3 million, Montenegro said.

The first tower will be ready for occupancy by 2010, while the second will be on stream by 2013.

A combination of low-interest rates, attractive financing terms and inflow of remittances by overseas Filipino workers may result in an immediate take up of Avida Towers Makati, Montenegro said.

Since were discussing Ayala projects there is something i'd like to ask, is it true that Ayala Land is planning to construct 2 high-rise Towers on the PSE lot in makati? and it's going to be the highest daw.

Ito daw yung original plan ni Ayala I hope we could get a rendering on this

Ayala’s budget condo near CBD :bash: :banana:


MANILA, Philippines -- It may not be the spitting image of the lavish The Columns situated right smack at the Makati business district, but the two Avida Towers to be located between Malugay, Yakal and Lumbayao Streets in San Antonio Village (parallel to Buendia and intersecting Pasong Tamo)-is close, literally close.

Just a 10-minute walk from the Makati CBD, the area is slowly but surely in its own development mode. So, for a monthly amortization of about P13,000, you can live in a 21-sq-m condo unit in one of the two towers made by Ayala Land subsidiary Avida Land, just a little over the rental cost of an apartment in Metro Manila.

Avida Land is one of the three brands of Ayala Land’s residential building group catering to the low middle-income segment. The other two are Community Innovations for the high-income segment, and Ayala Land Premier, which caters to the traditionally high-end market.

2 towers

The two towers will don an overall modern architectural theme with touches of dainty orange, green and yellow highlighting white main paint. Both towers will be L-shaped such that they will form a “Z,” ensuring all unit owners to enjoy expansive views at any floor. The ground area will have 60 percent open spaces and 1.5-meter hallways.

The first tower will have its turnover early 2011. After full occupancy of the first tower, Avida will launch its second tower. The two towers will have a total of 861 units. And if the towers prove successful, expect sequels of Avida towers in the Makati area.

Avida Towers Makati West, which will cost P1 billion, will stand at a 6,400-sq-m property of Equimark NFC Development Corp. and will occupy 40 percent of the area. The 60 percent open space will include landscaping, the pool area and an open garden/park. Greens will be optimized in the open area instead of constructing a parking lot. The parking area will be in three levels of the building.

The model units on site show natural ventilation and lighting, and expansive windows. The ceiling height is at 2.4 meters. The deliverable units will have ready ceramic floor tiles, painted walls, toilet and bath, with kitchen sink, base and overhead cabinets. The laundry area will have open spaces with options for a louvre.

All the buildings’ amenities will be placed on the ground level.

Fairly priced

Avida is fairly priced, considering the basic features that matter to condo dwellers will be there, according to Herbert Herrero, project development manager for Avida Towers Makati West. In Makati, for instance, he said high-end units sell at P90,000 to P110,000 per sq m, while there are also units that sell below P50,000 per sq m.

“We are trying to catch a market that’s in between. If there’s a studio worth below P1 million while a high-end studio type sells for over P2 million, we saw to it that our studio is a little over P1 million.”

A 21-sq-m studio will cost P1.3 million (with monthly amortizations of P13,000). A 33-sq-m, one-bedroom unit is P2.1 million (P21,000 monthly amortization); a 50-sq-m, two-bedroom unit starts at P3.6 million but would vary depending on the unit view and location.

Average selling price

Herrero estimates that the average selling price per sq m in Avida is P65,000, while The Columns is at P85,000.

About 38 percent of the building will be studio type; 38 percent will be one-bedroom; 24 percent will be two-bedroom units. There will be units with balconies and with bay windows.

“It’s practical the way we chose our room dimensions,” Herrero says.

“The closer you are to the CBD, the more the property is supposed to be expensive. Avida is at a comfortable distance to the CBD proximity wise,” he says.

Avida also has residential condominiums in Sucat, Parañaque , Manila and San Lazaro. With this most recent project, Avida finally breaks into the Makati market.

After the turnover, the Avida management assures it will help keep building dues down. Natural lighting and ventilation would help keep energy costs down.

Monthly association dues will range between P1,000 and P3,000 depending on the unit size. “Inasmuch as you would want to keep the costs for maintenance down, you want to keep a certain standard for cleanliness, exterior paint and number of security personnel. Anything not maintained well loses value through time,” Herrero explains.

For added security, the two towers’ perimeter will be fenced, with two gates. The property will be guarded and managed by another Ayala firm, Ayala Property Management Corp (which manages all Ayala Land condominium projects).

Avida’s grand launch took place on July 19.:nuts: :ohno:

sumusunod na ata ang avida sa yapak ng cityland., :)

Diyos ko...wala nang tatalo sa kapangitan ng Cityland. Compared to Cityland, this building looks like an Ayala Premier property.

Diyos ko...wala nang tatalo sa kapangitan ng Cityland. Compared to Cityland, this building looks like an Ayala Premier property.

I also disagree with @richard... the Avida design is way better than Cityland's. But @go I would only go so far as favorably comparing this to Community Innovations' Columns Ayala and not the projects of Ayala Land Premier.:)

MANILA, Philippines -- It may not be the spitting image of the lavish The Columns situated right smack at the Makati business district, but the two Avida Towers to be located between Malugay, Yakal and Lumbayao Streets in San Antonio Village (parallel to Buendia and intersecting Pasong Tamo)-is close, literally close.

Just a 10-minute walk from the Makati CBD, the area is slowly but surely in its own development mode. So, for a monthly amortization of about P13,000, you can live in a 21-sq-m condo unit in one of the two towers made by Ayala Land subsidiary Avida Land, just a little over the rental cost of an apartment in Metro Manila.

Avida Land is one of the three brands of Ayala Land’s residential building group catering to the low middle-income segment. The other two are Community Innovations for the high-income segment, and Ayala Land Premier, which caters to the traditionally high-end market.

2 towers

The two towers will don an overall modern architectural theme with touches of dainty orange, green and yellow highlighting white main paint. Both towers will be L-shaped such that they will form a “Z,” ensuring all unit owners to enjoy expansive views at any floor. The ground area will have 60 percent open spaces and 1.5-meter hallways.

The first tower will have its turnover early 2011. After full occupancy of the first tower, Avida will launch its second tower. The two towers will have a total of 861 units. And if the towers prove successful, expect sequels of Avida towers in the Makati area.

Avida Towers Makati West, which will cost P1 billion, will stand at a 6,400-sq-m property of Equimark NFC Development Corp. and will occupy 40 percent of the area. The 60 percent open space will include landscaping, the pool area and an open garden/park. Greens will be optimized in the open area instead of constructing a parking lot. The parking area will be in three levels of the building.

The model units on site show natural ventilation and lighting, and expansive windows. The ceiling height is at 2.4 meters. The deliverable units will have ready ceramic floor tiles, painted walls, toilet and bath, with kitchen sink, base and overhead cabinets. The laundry area will have open spaces with options for a louvre.

All the buildings’ amenities will be placed on the ground level.

Fairly priced

Avida is fairly priced, considering the basic features that matter to condo dwellers will be there, according to Herbert Herrero, project development manager for Avida Towers Makati West. In Makati, for instance, he said high-end units sell at P90,000 to P110,000 per sq m, while there are also units that sell below P50,000 per sq m.

“We are trying to catch a market that’s in between. If there’s a studio worth below P1 million while a high-end studio type sells for over P2 million, we saw to it that our studio is a little over P1 million.”

A 21-sq-m studio will cost P1.3 million (with monthly amortizations of P13,000). A 33-sq-m, one-bedroom unit is P2.1 million (P21,000 monthly amortization); a 50-sq-m, two-bedroom unit starts at P3.6 million but would vary depending on the unit view and location.

Average selling price

Herrero estimates that the average selling price per sq m in Avida is P65,000, while The Columns is at P85,000.

About 38 percent of the building will be studio type; 38 percent will be one-bedroom; 24 percent will be two-bedroom units. There will be units with balconies and with bay windows.

“It’s practical the way we chose our room dimensions,” Herrero says.

“The closer you are to the CBD, the more the property is supposed to be expensive. Avida is at a comfortable distance to the CBD proximity wise,” he says.

Avida also has residential condominiums in Sucat, Parañaque , Manila and San Lazaro. With this most recent project, Avida finally breaks into the Makati market.

After the turnover, the Avida management assures it will help keep building dues down. Natural lighting and ventilation would help keep energy costs down.

Monthly association dues will range between P1,000 and P3,000 depending on the unit size. “Inasmuch as you would want to keep the costs for maintenance down, you want to keep a certain standard for cleanliness, exterior paint and number of security personnel. Anything not maintained well loses value through time,” Herrero explains.

For added security, the two towers’ perimeter will be fenced, with two gates. The property will be guarded and managed by another Ayala firm, Ayala Property Management Corp (which manages all Ayala Land condominium projects).

Avida’s grand launch took place on July 19.:nuts: :ohno:

pano makiki-inquire dito
mura nga noh!

Diyos ko...wala nang tatalo sa kapangitan ng Cityland. Compared to Cityland, this building looks like an Ayala Premier property.

I also disagree with @richard... the Avida design is way better than Cityland's. But @go I would only go so far as favorably comparing this to Community Innovations' Columns Ayala and not the projects of Ayala Land Premier.:)

well., they're both affordable? in very good locations. :)

well., they're both affordable? in very good locations. :)

This time I agree with you @richard that they are both affordable. :cheers:

baha daw sa buendia and malugay? kumusta kaya future site ng avida makati?

>>how many u/c and future projects are affected?

^^ Yeap I was in Makati yesterday and the flood between pasong tamo and SLEX is ddep enough to stop Sedan's engine. That causes the traffic in the area because the car is running in Manpower than Horsepower. :lol:

^^ Yeap I was in Makati yesterday and the flood between pasong tamo and SLEX is ddep enough to stop Sedan's engine. That causes the traffic in the area because the car is running in Manpower than Horsepower. :lol:

hi just a newbie here. Does any of you have more info on this tower? Mabaha ba talaga dito sa lugar na ito? Nagsimula na po ba construction dito? Maganda sana magbuy ng unit dito but my concern is baka nga bahain sa lugar na ito :?

^^ Haha we have the same concern, judging from the developer it is indeed a good buy. but it has its own sets of cons. The area in which it is located is indeed prone to flooding and there's no argument on that. Though it is fast becoming an up and coming area with establishments being opened in the area...but then it is a good buy? my take....YES it is, but do not expect an immediate huge profit as the market is quite saturated these days....

A good 30% profit would be a very "SAFE" prediction. If you buy a unit today and sell it after RFO.

Yikes! baha nga ba talaga? I really want a 2BR unit for my brother to stay and I've been looking like crazy and sa internet ito lang ang nakita ko na medyo ok. Plus the monthly is really low. Any buyer out there? It's not expensive and therefore it's not as luxurious as other condos that are selling for over 5 million pesos.

the report said there will be a penthouse, how much and big is this??

Hanggang penthouse umaabot ang baha dyan.:nuts:

magkano na ang /sqm dito?

http://i63.photobucket.com/albums/h141/oboi_1/avidamakatiwest.jpg

kamusta na ba itong project nag bebenta na ba or sold out na!

^^ no idea yet, anyone from sales team who can update us with the unit take up please? JP/Leech, asan ka na?

i have read from Manila Bulletin last Sunday that this project got qualified for the POI tax perks. constuction will commence next month, July 2008 according to the news. :) thank you for the aerial photo @ oboi! you can update us from up there when the tower gains some height.

meron pa avail units dito... mga 80% na ata ang sold.. will double check

cool, that was fast JP. thanks for the useful info. sans the flood, which i hope can be addressed soon, location for this project is fine! it's got a quiet neighborhood (for now) and so is Belton's.

Avida Towers Makati West

This is supposed to be @ corners of Malugay, Yakal and Lumbayao streets.

http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e289/sikatuna/avida_makati.jpg

IMO. Looks like a HDB public housing in singapore. Now, if they are going to add a void deck and a hawker center at the ground floor.... :lol:

Singapore? I could someone saying.....

Ah ya! Baha Lah?:lol:

Seriously though an Ayala consultant told me that this project is selling well...but not yet fully sold out

its okay for avida to look like that.. they cater to a low-end market.. but it kind of looks like TCAA.. haha..

hawker center? that'd be a welcome addition! dadayuhin ko siya lagi! hehe...

JP, this project was granted by BOI with tax perks. does that in any way prevents Avida from increasing its unit price?

It looks quite nice to me, as has been said a mix between serendra and comlumns.. better than most of its competitors.

hawker center? that'd be a welcome addition! dadayuhin ko siya lagi! hehe...

JP, this project was granted by BOI with tax perks. does that in any way prevents Avida from increasing its unit price?

hmm.. will look into that.. but in any case, prices in the industry will all increase, since construction materials have really placed some under water.. so avida, like alvio or alp will increase its prices..

but not to the point that the price will render it not eligible to the tax incentives. let's see.

bat walang gym to? is this worth it? how would you differ this sa the columns i checked the prices di sya mura e parang same lang sa the columns. sold out na ba? how would you compare this with belton? binabaha ba dito?

any update on this? really interested. actually if you take time and compare this with the columns halos same lang ung price nila. nagoffer lang sila ng mas maliit na rooms para mas lesser ung price. i heard ung katabi nito gaisano di ba ung market market sa serendra malapit gaisano din? sayang nga lang mukhang walang gym talaga... ayala is far better than any other developers i think.

Hmm... it says in the article linked below that the Gaisano property will "around the Belton Square property" along Pasong Tamo so I guess it is not exactly "katabi" to Avida. It will be nearby though.

http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showpost.php?p=20783917&postcount=68

"It is great to know that many structures around the Belton Square property is giving way to new projects from big developers including the Gaisano Group (a known mall developer in the southern part of the country as well as the Metro Market! Market! in the new Ayala Mall located at the Fort in Taguig City). Imagine the possibilities if they build a mall in this area," Cordero said.

sana magkagym!

A condo where living is easy
Philippine Star
Friday, August 8, 2008

Most advertisements for affordable residential condominiums use price points and a development’s amenities to catch the potential homeowners’ attention. To online journalist Vit Hernandez who was shopping for a studio unit, they all seemed to be offering very similar products anchored by an attractive swimming pool and entertainment area.

The bachelor who works part-time from his home was particularly attracted to the offerings of the top real estate companies in the vicinity of Makati – all of which fell within his price range of P1 million to P1.5 million. He compared financing schemes, layouts and designs, and locations – which to him were comparable to each other. He surmised that in terms of interiors, any of the studio unit from any of these seasoned developers would meet his needs for a home that could double up as a place to write.

Upon careful study of the amenities offered by the projects, however, he realized that more – in terms of bigger social hall, bigger swimming pool, larger gardens – was not better. After all, these would eventually be maintained by the homeowners through their association dues. Most residential condos are managed by an association of all the homeowners in the complex. The homeowners are charged dues pro-rated according to the size of their unit and these dues fund the upkeep of common areas like swimming pools. In fact, some of the developers were charging P75 to P100/sqm. as common area dues as against P50/sqm. on the more reasonable end.

He also realized that in terms of track record, he could more safely rely on the older more established companies to deliver the unit on time and according to specifications. Better yet, some of them would be more sensitive to maintaining their track record and brand name.

He eventually decided to purchase a studio unit at Avida Land’s Makati West Towers. Currently under construction, its first tower is slated for completion by 2010. The development is a project of Avida Land, the affordable housing arm of Ayala Land which has a reputation for delivering its projects as promised.

Like other Avida developments, Avida Towers Makati West offers 24/7 security, perimeter fences, adequate power and water supply, a swimming pool, jogging paths, landscaped gardens and a multi-purpose hall.

kamusta naman itong project na ito
gaano ba kataas ang baha dito?

Hi, any updates re this project?

construction should have started by July. And I guess it did. Can somebody please confirm? :)

construction should have started by July. And I guess it did. Can somebody please confirm? :)

yes it has started na. we cannot pass at the back of the showroom anymore because of the construction.

thank you for the update @ Taipan Sky. how was the vicinity last night during the heavy downpour?

^i have no idea. never been ther during heavy rains

thank you. never mind. i'll go and check next time. :)

thank you. never mind. i'll go and check next time. :)

ironically, i live a few steps from there and my condo is directly facing grepalife/makati west site.hehehe

does it still get flooded after a heavy downpour? im really interested with this property but i wish it would have a gym as well. btw when do we expect the turnover? sabay ba o tower 1 muna then tower 2 after? i notice parating traffic sa malugay going to buendia... post naman kayo ng actual pics :) thanks.

The area that gets really flooded is the mayapis area, near the riles. I went to the avida site around two weeks ago during the storm and the water was around ankle high at most.

Tower 1 is scheduled for turnover 2010 while Tower 2 is on 2011.

ilang % sold na ba tong property na to? i find it better than the other avida in makati more exclusive and better layout and theme. which is more dense? are you serious it floods in this area? dumaan ako di naman e.:dance2:

ilang % sold na ba tong property na to? i find it better than the other avida in makati more exclusive and better layout and theme. which is more dense? are you serious it floods in this area? dumaan ako di naman e.:dance2:

AFAIK, Tower 1 is almost sold out with only a few 2BR units remaining. I think these are units facing manila area. First to get sold were the 1BR units facing Buendia and the 1BR units facing amenities which are also morning sun.

Flood is concentrated on the mayapis area mostly. Sometimes it just "spills" over to the side of the auto area near the development but not really in that portion.

good to hear that... any update? pics? post naman kayo actual pics! :banana:

any update on this? pics naman! is it possible to construct a gym sa loob?

Avida to complete 1,248 units in 2008 (http://philstar.com/index.php?Real%20Estate&p=49&type=2&sec=37&aid=2008111336)

Source: Philstar.com (http://philstar.com/index.php?Real%20Estate&p=49&type=2&sec=37&aid=2008111336)

Avida, the affordable housing arm of property giant Ayala Land, announced that it will complete and deliver as scheduled to unit owners a total of 1,248 units or four residential towers in 2008 in its four locations in Metro Manila.

According to Dez Cruz, Avida head for residential buildings, the company is committed to meet buyers’ expectations and turnover units to them as promised. She added that OFWs comprise 40 percent of its market and that a growing number of Filipinos working in Europe and the Middle East have been purchasing units as investments for their retirement.

“We have assured them and the rest of our clients that we will complete and deliver the seven residential towers that we have sold on time and on schedule,” she disclosed.

In the first half of the year, Avida sold approximately 40 units a month despite price increases to cover for hikes in construction materials, according to Cruz. Overall, Avida sales in the Middle East has remained strong and in the first nine months ended higher than last year’s figure.

Currently, OFWs, junior executives and entrepreneurs have moved into two of its four locations. These are Avida Towers Sucat and Avida Towers New Manila. Avida expects to turnover the first building of Avida Towers San Lazaro by the first quarter of 2009. Meanwhile, construction of Avida Towers Makati West is proceeding as scheduled. It will be completed by the end of 2010.

Ryan Ybanez, Avida project development officer, relates that they have noticed greater interest in active communities. “When other prospective homeowners see what it really feels like to live in an Avida Towers residential project, interest in the development tends to heighten,” he says.

Gen Y-ers are new condo owners
Philippine Star
December 12, 2008

Young employees between 25 to 40 and working in central business districts of Metro Manila have emerged as the new market of residential condominium dwellers, note officers of Avida Towers, the in-city residential condominium projects being developed by Ayala Land’s affordable housing subsidiary.

Known as Generation Y, individuals born from the late ’60s until the early ’80s are now experiencing growing purchasing power which permits them to start investing in their own homes — much earlier than did their parents.

Many of them are employed by the Outsourcing and Offshoring industry which is known to pay high wages.

According to Dez Cruz, Avida head for residential buildings, they are generally very focused on their careers and into social relationships, which define their current lifestyle.

A market study by Avida further reveals these young urbanites appreciate the central locations of the firm’s four condominium development sites since these allow them to have more time for their demanding jobs and personal passions. They are always on-the-go and constantly busy with a wide range of activities, the study further revealed. Avida Towers currently has four locations: Sucat, New Manila, Makati and San Lazaro in Manila.

“The busyness that characterizes their daily lives affirms their independent lifestyle. But various factors stand in the way of their maximizing their independence,” Cruz cited the study.

These include long commutes from home to office and work hours that most often go beyond the traditional 8-to-5 schedule. While most of them want to own their condo units and live independently from their parents whether or not they are married, the cost of a quality unit in good locations often hinders their plans.

Avida Towers offers studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, loft, penthouse and garden units in most locations. “These young urbanites tell us that living in a central location gives them better control of their lives,” reported Cruz.

Gen Y-ers are the new breed of residential condo owners (http://www.manilatimes.net/national/2009/jan/11/yehey/property/20090111prop2.html)
Manila Times (http://www.manilatimes.net/national/2009/jan/11/yehey/property/20090111prop2.html)

They are always on-the-go and constantly busy with a wide range of activities, the study further revealed. Avida Towers currently has four locations: Sucat, New Manila, Makati and San Lazaro in Manila.

“The busyness that characterizes their daily lives affirms their independent lifestyle. But various factors stand in the way of their maximizing their independence,” Cruz cited the study.

These include long commutes from home to office and work hours that most often go beyond the traditional 8-to-5 schedule. While most of them want to own their condo units and live independently from their parents whether or not they are married, the cost of a quality unit in good locations often hinders their plans. Homes on the market that offer the quality they seek are usually beyond their reach. Many units within their budgets, on the other hand, are not up to their standards.

Avida’s projects have filled the gap for these new breed of homeowners whose careers and social relationships dominate their priorities, noted Cruz. Unlike previous generations, malling is also very much a part of their lifestyle. So they go for centrally located developments. Avida Towers Sucat and San Lazaro projects are a few meters away from malls while its Makati and New Manila developments are a short ride away from major shopping centers.

“Getting ahead at work and enjoying the company of friends are their top priorities in life. They are busy with so many places to go and people to see. They are unwilling to compromise on their busy lifestyles,” Cruz added.

Avida Towers offers studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, loft, penthouse and garden units in most locations. “These young urbanites tell us that living in a central location gives them better control of their lives,” reported Cruz.

naisip ko lang as I am quite familiar with this area. well, binabaha nga tong lugar na to pero most of the time pag hindi na accessible dito ibig sabihin pinapauwi na mga tao sa office kaya might as well mag sick leave ka na lang :P

kung mga yuppies ang target nila i hope may mga kotse bibili ng units sa lugar na to dahil ang alam ko wala public transpo na dumadaan dito. hopefully I'm wrong. although medyo pwedeng lakarin yung mga streets na may commute eh you don't want to risk walking along these streets lalo na sa gabi. hopefully (again) mas ok na ngayon lalo na tinanggal na mga illegal settlers sa riles.

well, it doesn't rain everyday. so flood should not be much of a problem.

^^ i agree.

meron bang may idea how much ang current rate ng renta sa mga condo in Makati? I would just like to assess kung magandang investment din para parentahan mga units dito. may market pa kaya three years from now? what do you think?

thanks!

I was able to pass by the site earlier today and quite a few (I think 4-6) floors are up already.

post naman kayo ng actual pic nito o! im currently in singapore and want to check kung anung update ng development na to firsthand. thanks.:cheers:

Until now di ko pa rin alam kung nasaan ito. Ito ba yung sa may likod ng Grepalife building?

sort of an eyesore but lets wait till it gets constructed...

can anyone please take a shot of this development kung ano na nagagawa aas of now. nandito kase ako sa ibang bansa ngayon gusto ko makita kung anu na natatapos. thanks po would appreciate it big time.:) pics pls!!!!

i don't have photo to share, but for your imagination, it's 4 or 5 levels above ground already. if not higher. :)

guys papost naman ung meron shots kelangan ko na talga makita im out of the country kase thanks. pls pls favor.

turninngpoint!

here's an update i sent to my client. it was taken last march 6. the photos are not that good. actually if you'll see the construction personally, it's doing very well. the pics makes the development look a little bit underdeveloped, but it's doing very well.

ATMW construction is on track for both towers with Tower 1 and 2 scheduled for Top-Off this year, September and November, respectively.

thanks taipan sky... wow ok na pala.... glad the project is on track... i bought a unit here kase. sana update nyo ung pictures in case meron update para matrack ko ung progress ng project na to. i'm currently out of the country kase gusto ko makita ung actual na development kaso wala ako to take a look at the project. any other pics ung mas malilinaw would be greatly appreciated.:banana:

Anybody knows how much is the current price for 1 bedroom tower 1?

My future home in Makati!!!

Hi folks,

Nakakatuwa makita ang progress ng building na eto. This is the only public portal I have to see updates on this project since I left the country.

I used to work for the architectural firm that designed this building. Though I can't take full credit for it, but I can fairly say I put a lot of my blood and sweat to designing these. Kung may tanong kayo about the layout or why things are how they are, I can give you a view of how it is to work with Avida and why this became the final design :)

Of course, tulad ng mga nabasa ko dito, aaminin ko this isn't the best design bcoz it looks massive, but it is one of the best site plans in Makati. Saan pa kayo hahanap ng may ground floor landscaping and pool in a condo? Haven't you noticed that every condo tower is built on top of a podium parking structure? If every condo was built this way, all we pedestrians would see are parking, parking and parking. Anyway, priority was given to provide maximum open space for the community kaya ganyan itsura ng building :P

Anyway, sorry, proud lang ako sa aking ginawa. As for sa mga nagtatanong about penthouse... We designed these to have special units. Some on the level just above the parking podium - units that open out to a patio/garden (note: malaki eto ndi po balcony) and the penthouse units were designed as 2-story lofts. Unfortunately, wala na akong updates kung natuloy pa mga eto. It could've been wiped off the project.

Kung interesado kayo sa design neto, I worked on a similar one in San Lazaro Manila, pero under middle income sector ng Ayala - at that time Community Innovations yung name ng company. Same with this project, it's feature is the ground level. Gardens in the property, pool at ground level (isipin mo na lang hotel concept), grand open air lobby as well as enclosed lobbies for each tower. I know Tower 1 is underway. Oh and this one has a gym, outdoor amphitheater and landscaped podiums. Similarly, it has special units din, which last I heard was sold out.

Anyway, please post pictures of the site kung may progress. I'd love to see it. Thanks.

hi,

malapit lang ako sa area ng avida makati west, around one block away lang...

lagi kong tinitingnan kung may ilaw yung crane :lol: napansin ko, nong sunday, wala, pero last monday at ngayong gabi, merong nagtatrabaho.

yung tower 1 pala kasing taas na ng grepalife.

:banana:

in terms of "baha", last week nong sobrang maulan, baha sa pasong tamo from waltermart to buendia... (swear ganito kahaba...) yung pasong tamo from buendia going to malugay and yakal, napansin ko wala namang baha. so i can say na ok na yung area ng avida makati west sa tapat ng malugay at yakal. last year, merong drainage improvement around that area eh.

iyon nga lang yung sa gilid (lumbayao street) medyo mataas yung tubig pag maulan. at pag galing ka sa south super hi-way (via mayapis) to malugay, dito sobrang baha....

Hi,

Kahit ba yung mismong Arnaiz/pasay road going to greenbelt & glorieta binabaha din?

Thanks!

iyon nga lang yung sa gilid (lumbayao street) medyo mataas yung tubig pag maulan. at pag galing ka sa south super hi-way (via mayapis) to malugay, dito sobrang baha....

was also considering this development but needed rfo so i passed this up , the lcoation is ok except for occasional flooding ( but not as bad ) if you need to commute you can walk across to buendia , got some fastfood restos around like KFC ( 2 mins walk) and Jolibee in buendia

its sandwiched between 2 one way streets and belton will be developed near makati west , its a nice condo in makati without the makati prices

post naman kayo ng pics!:banana:

Hi everyone :cool: - does anyone know if all the units are now sold in both phases? Also - any updates on pics since the last one in June?

What's the financial climate like in Makati nowadays - my research says it has'nt hit Pinas as bad as the UK (yet?)

All unbiased feedback welcome!!

^^ This is why I'm banking on the impending gentrification of San Antonio.

how is the traffic in this area?

How did the recent typhoon affect this area? I heard that it really got sooo flooded...

nakita yung video sa Ayala Makati corner Makati Ave grabe ang taas ng baha lalo na siguro dito

How did the recent typhoon affect this area? I heard that it really got sooo flooded...

Yes, it did. Ondoy flooded my garage, and our house is actually quite high. :ohno:

Hi All,

Best wishes to everyone on the forum who was affected by the recent flood...hopefully by now the waters have receded and although it might take a while, some form of normality will return to the city....

I'm writing from the UK by the way - and we have little news on Manila now, as the earthquake in Indonesia has provided the papers with the lowdown on the newest natural disaster.

Maybe a brief survey on Avida Towers Makati West can lighten up the thread a bit. :cheers:

1) Are you a local investor OR an international investor? And which country are you investing from?

2) Which location is your unit(s) facing? Facing Manila Bay or facing Makati?

3) Have you bought your unit for rental income or capital growth, or to live in when it completes?:banana:


OK, I'll start.

1) Investing from London, UK
2) My unit is on the 15th floor facing Makati (although I hope I'll still have some sunlight seeing that the 39-storey Belton Square is rising directly in front of Tower 2!
3) I bought it for both!!!

This is what happens when I'm on a coffee break and there's not much work on!!!

Cheers................

wow ang taas na pala. :)

Top off for Tower 1 tomorrow...:cheers:

Top off for Tower 1 tomorrow...:cheers:

My agent in Makati has informed me that Tower 2 has been topped off. Anyone in the local area with updated pictures?

any updated pics? pls post naman kayo ty!:)

any update? pics naman dyan! :):banana:

(sorry no pics!)
happy new year! tower 1 has been topped off. :-) i'm not sure but is tower 2 supposedly as high as tower 1? cause if not i guess tapos na rin top-off ng tower 2. i don't see lots of changes though compared sa picture as of November.

Tower 2 topped off last Saturday, 23rd January...but no one seems to have pictures - even the Avida website has no updates since July 09.

Got the pics while inside the taxi yesterday morning. (Click on image for full view)

@artmiguel why can't u just post the pics here? i notice that u always ask for people's e-mail address in different threads but u don't post any pic. :bash: nothing wrong with that as i'm sure u just wanna corner potential clients. but please balance it out. u may get more deals this way.

post naman kayo ng pic ng malapitan? kelan ba yan matuturnover?


Based from experience and previous projects (non-Ayala), a rough estimate for turnover is usually around 16 - 20 months AFTER top-off. This is pretty close to the marketed turnover of Avida Makati West which I believe is 1st Qtr 2010 for Tower 1 and 2nd Qtr 2010 for Tower 2. Let us see if Avida could deliver early which will be good for us investors and owners.

hi,

im new here. . .pa add naman oh...

Pics and updates please, I am looking for a condo in Makati as my next project :)

JP, I didn't realize Avida is priced that nicely.
Around P60k/sqm in Makati...

How much do you think will be the rent for a 20 sqm unit?

^^ realistically sir rick, even if its avida. with all the projects now and with this location. my best estimate is 15k to 25k. depending how awesome you create the interiors. but your company will get 25k rents for sure. your units are awesomeness. :D

^^ I passed by it earlier while taking the PNR to EDSA and all I can say is that it looks really massive. :okay:

Hi All!

This thread has slowed down a bit...maybe we should inject some interest and comments here... :hi:

I already have a unit reserved in Tower 2, but my agent has just emailed me with the latest availability for remaining units:

Current pricing for Avida Towers Makati West is as follows:
- Studio unit - SOLD OUT - price range P1.7M up
- 1 Bedroom unit - 12 units left - price range P2.8M to P3.3M
- 2 Bedroom unit - 112 units left - price range P4.5M up
- 2 Bedroom unit with Balcony - 3 units left - price range P4.8M up

1 Bedroom units are all in Tower 2.

Anyone interested? PM me...

And any new information on the development?

Tower 1 is suppossed to be completing 4th quarter this year...:deadthrea

any updates?

are there still available units?

Are there any available units left? Studio or One Br unit. Kindly send the images..Thanks po.

C'mon people, let's make this thread go from,

:fiddle:

to...........


:dance:



Where are all the updates? New pics? Is'nt tower 1 suppossed to be turning over in December?

no pic but tower 1 seems to be ready for turnover soon. the "safety net" remaining is only half of the building and structurally is quite visible already.

btw, sent PM to those asking for availability and is looking for a unit here.

Look closer, it seems like its touching the building but its actually not. There is an electrical post that created the illusion that its touching the bldg.

wow, this building is really massive. Im really interested on how it would look from the inside... I mean could anybody post a pic of what it would look like to see from its windows? Im really more on the lighting's and windows aspect when I look over a house/conco. its one of the top priorities for me. ..thanks.:)

Some units are still available for Avida Towers Makati West.

hhhmmmmm...if you base it sa mga brochures ng Avida Makati West dapat white ang main finish ng mga bulidings at hindi beige. They should follow what is in their brochure and it would make it look better in line with the other projects near the vicinity :sly:

Pa off topic: I'm looking for info regarding Avida midrise condo, located at Grace Village, Q.C.

Any agents who can help me please.

Looking good and due to finish on schedule...:)

I've bought a 1-BR in Tower 2 which is due to complete in August, and have just become a new agent for Ayala too! I believe it's good business sense to promote a project with an excellent track record like Avida, especially after investing in a unit a few years ago.

If there is anyone who is interested in finding out more info about purchasing an Avida property please PM me. There are still units available in Makati West, San Lorenzo (Makati CBD), Alabang, Global City, Nuvali, Sucat, and Cebu City. Discounts and special payment plans are currently available!

Here is the Avida site: http://www.avidaland.com/

All the best for 2011 and beyond!

Nice to see yung finished building. I like the colors. Sana gawan nila ng paraan yung mga post at kable ng kuryente. Panira e. Gawin sanang underground.

May unit din ako sa Tower 2. 2-br with balcony (53 sqm). Pero ipinaconvert ko into 1-br. Ako lang naman ang titira. Gusto ko kasi maluwag ang living room para sa mga bisita. Price last year is 4.1M including taxes and fees (3.8M yata without taxes). Magkano na ba value ng same unit ngayon? Tumaas ba or bumaba.

same parin po ang value ng unit

Is this project sold out?

Are there still units available?

How much would a studio unit or 1 br unit cost?

It would look much better if it was all white.

I think only 2br units are available and possibly a few 1br.

Are there provisions for kitchen exhaust? Inside a studio unit, would a washing machine (front load w/ dryer) fit inside the CR, or are there provisions for WM drain should you locate your WM elsewhere?

Hi all,

Am selling my 1br unit for 3.5M. Last minute decision, though I must say I was really looking forward to moving in. It's on the 21st floor of tower 1. I'll shoulder all taxes and doc stamps so am afraid that amount is non-negotiable na. Holler if you're interested. :)

Hi -

How much and pls send me more info and pics if available.

Could anyone confirm that turnover for Tower 1 is still happening right now?

Please post some pics.

Thanks!

Di pa daw starting ang turnover, sabi nung nakausap kong taga Avida last week they are still waiting for the occupancy permit. Once it is provided then turnover can begin. Sana di matagalan

Turn-over of Units started last April 19 for Tower 1 unit owners. Was there yesterday and saw the vey nice swimming pool! I am so excited for Tower 2!

^^that's good news buti nagumpisa na turnover. anyway saw this inquiry from other Avida project forum....can anyone clear this up...

"Do Avida condo developments especially here in Metro Manila stand/will stand on leased lots only (good for 50 years) and therefore you can't have absolute/perpetual ownership when you buy a unit?"

pag ganun ibig sabihin ba after 50yrs wala na tayong right sa property natin since leased lots lang daw??? :uh:

Hindi ko natandaan na nakita iyan sa pagkahaba habang kontratang binayan ko sa kanila hahaha. But I think if ever that will happen, most of the original owners will be dead or in the hospital! hahahaha...

That is something to think about!

yeah, but what about your children? think about it...

^^yup that is what I was thinking also, of course I would want to give something for my children

^^ at the onset of buying, didn't anyone of you ask if the property is of perpetual ownership or leasehold? BUT don't worry, most condos being sold is of perpetual ownership. mostly. only a few are leasehold and usually the lease for the lot is for 100 years.

All condos in Phil are corporations; their lifespan is only 50 years, subject to extension for another 25 years if the buildings are safe to live in and in good condition. If not, they will be demolished and rebuilt or the land sold. The proceeds will be divided and distributed to unit owners accordingly. "Perpetual" actually means "50 years only". The land is perpetual, but buildings are not. Most likely, condo buildings that stand for 50 years will not be granted for extension.

^^ you're talking about the lifespan of a corporation (homeownwer's) which is 50 years, which is totally renewable for any number of times as long as the corporation is renewing it.

Same thing happened with Bel-Air Association...they renewed their association by laws despite its expiration

yeah, but what about your children? think about it...

I think my children will own their own buildings by then hahaha! :banana: But will double check my contract with them to see this. You pointed out a legitimate concern.

pero sakali nakakahinayang din syempre kung after 50yrs mawala nalang yung investment mo, maganda sana pag meron ka pamamana kahit papano...hehe...

So kamusta naman yung itsura ng units? Sa tower 2 rin ako... So should I expect November matuturn over ang tower 2?

Congratulations to all Tower 1 buyers...turnover na!

Any info on rental prices on 1 BD/2BD for that tower? I am in Tower 2 and waiting for turnover in September. Also how much did it cost to put fixtures and fittings (furniture, etc) in?

Thanks.

Hi, I just got a mail from Avida sending me the original copy of the Tax Declaration for my unit. Ang taas pala ng Real Property Tax ng condo considering na maliit lang yung unit ko. Did anyone receive their copy already? If so, magkano yung inyo? You could send me a private message para ma-compare natin. thanks

Hayst.

Can anyone confirm if Tower 2 turnover is in September?

Medyo late yung Tower 1 kasi supposedly 1st qtr yung turnover nya. Baka mamaya October pa pala.

parang mas suerte pa to kesa sa columns sa legaspi....kasi yun natakpan na halos lahat ng view ng isang tower with the beacon.....eto full view pa sya

pero nakatayo na rin yung eton (first homes) and yung linear :-(

no association dues yet until tower 2 is turned over! woohoo!!! =D

Guys, I've decided to sell my 1BR unit in tower1. Turned over already. Was originally offering it at 3.5M, but need the money na so 3.1M na lang. High nice view at 21st flr, facing manila bay. PM me if interested.

Got this when I emailed Avida:


------------------------------------------------
Please be informed that turnover for Avida Towers Makati West Tower 2 is scheduled to begin within this quarter, most probably in the month of September. As of the moment, our construction team is doing finishing works on the Towers and our Quality Monitoring and Warranty Unit is inspecting the units to ensure that it passes the standards before being turned over to their respective owners. We are also waiting for the release of the occupancy permit by the local government of Makati, without this permit, we will be unable to begin the turnover of units.
