MANILA, Oct 10, 2012 - (ACN Newswire) - 2012 will be a landmark year for the Philippine property industry across all its sectors - and is even poised to be stronger than the preceding one.

A marked confidence seemed to have returned to the local real estate industry at the start of the past year as foreign investments and improved infrastructures started to strengthen growth in rental rates and yields.

Extensive construction transformed the Philippine capital into a growing world-class metropolis. Outlying provinces and major cities were likewise developed into vibrant economic growth areas that complemented the center of activity that is Metro Manila. The Philippine real estate industry have shown remarkable year-on-year growth in terms of the number of development projects.

These developments indicate that the country is now on a growth trajectory expected to be sustained in the short to medium term. The Philippines is thus expected to emerge from this cycle as a country with bustling metropolitan areas with modern skylines and picturesque estates.

The landscape, in turn, will make the country a better and more conducive place to reside and do business in and thus will lay the foundations for future industry growth.
