Presidential Adviser on Peace Process Secretary Jesus Dureza promised big housing developers in the Philippines that it will be business as usual even if there is a suspension of the peace talks with Muslim separatists. This is what he said during their National Convention in the City of Davao, one of Southern Philippines’ progressive cities. He further added that Mindanao is not going back to war and the the GRP Panel are continuously searching for an amenable agreement for both sides.
Mindanao, being packaged by the Department of Tourism as an agri-industry hub is moving towards a more sustainable development in the island with various choices of upcoming residential areas, not to mention that it is being groomed to become the retirement haven returning Filipinos and retiring foreigners.
Now, because of that, the government is expediting infrastructure projects to further boost Mindanao’s accessibility. The repairs and modernization of airports and other ports of entry in Mindanao took off late 2006 with funding cost of P5.654 billion.
Aside from the considerable marketing and promotions of Mindanao, various projects are currently under way like the Seaweed Industry Project, Energy Programs and the Prioritization of Air Routes.
There had been debates about whether commercial or residential real estate is more advantageous than the other. But first, let us define the two terms. Commercial real estate targets business-based settings. It becomes a market area where buyers consider whether the realty is proper place for the flow of business. It could also be a storage place, factory, and etc. Residential realty targets normal citizens who are looking for a place to reside or stay in permanently.
Lately, commercial real estate had been more prominent than residential because of the continued flow of cash from the owners. Unlike those aiming for residential realty, commercial buyers are more capable of buying real estate.
In the past, residential realty had been popular but now, agents prefer the latter.
Real Estate comes from the word ‘realty’ or ‘real property’ which defines any piece of land and all that surrounds it- the air, the ground, or any structure on it. Moreover, it is any property that cannot be moved at all. Its categories are: commercial, residential, or land property.
Buying and selling real estate properties had become prominent during the medieval times where land ownership meant power and wealth. Ordinary people and peasants bought land from the kings in order to gain the said benefits. Today, it has become one of the major businesses in the industry. It has come to bloom and develop as time goes by.
