Insider Spotlight
Filinvest Alabang is targeting this market through Terrace Homes at Prominence II within Brentville International Community in Biñan, Laguna, offering landed residences under a condominium ownership structure.
Calabarzon continues to attract residential investment, supported by expanding commercial developments, healthcare facilities and transport infrastructure.
Data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas showed that the region accounted for 37.1 percent of residential real estate loans granted in the third quarter of 2025, the largest share among regions outside Metro Manila.
Meanwhile, the Greater Manila Area recorded the country's highest annual residential property price growth among areas monitored by the central bank in the second quarter of 2025.
Larger living spaces
Terrace Homes at Prominence II offers single-detached and duplex residences designed for homeowners seeking larger living spaces without the maintenance responsibilities typically associated with traditional subdivisions.
Each property is covered by a Condominium Certificate of Title, allowing buyers, including eligible foreign nationals, to own their land-attached residences within a condominium framework.
Property management oversees shared facilities, security and grounds maintenance.
“Retirement changes the way we think about home. It becomes about having the space to enjoy your time, the privacy to live at your own pace, and the convenience of knowing that the things you need are still within reach,” Filinvest Alabang senior vice president for residentials and estates Daphne Sanchez said in a press statement.
Closer to dining, shopping options
The development reflects an approach to residential planning that considers changing housing requirements as homeowners transition into retirement.
Located within Brentville, the project provides access to the South Luzon Expressway and Cavite-Laguna Expressway, connecting residents to Metro Manila and nearby commercial and healthcare destinations.
Existing community establishments include South Grocer and Brent International School, while the planned Village Front retail hub is expected to introduce additional dining and shopping options.
Sell-to-build approach
Prominence II will feature a clubhouse and children's play area, alongside its residential offerings.
The development follows a sell-to-build approach, aligning construction with payment progress. Its Cypress single-detached model is also available for immediate occupancy.
The project has received recognition in the Residential Development category of the Asia Pacific Property Awards. —Vanessa Hidalgo | Ed: Corrie S. Narisma
