Article 1 - Canyon Ranch. Live the dream!
 

  
Canyon Ranch is the P3 Billion project of Century Communities Corporation, which is Close to the City, Close to Nature and Close to your Heart. Close to the city because Canyon Ranch is only 25 minutes away from Makati and 10 minutes from Alabang at a speed of 60 to 70 KPH. Close to nature because of the availability of cool, fresh, unpolluted air, and the abundance of trees. Close to your heart because we are not just selling houses, but most significantly, we are providing homes for your loved ones.

Perched on the foothills of Carmona, and part of the San Lazaro Leisure Park, Canyon Ranch is a perfectly orchestrated, master planned residential development that combines the warmth of country living with the amenities of today’s modern conveniences.

Barely 25 minutes from Makati, Canyon Ranch serves as the perfect sanctuary from the city.

Article 2 - Burgos Street red light sales.   
 
The Burgos Street area of Makati City has for some time been the nightly entertainment capital of the Philippines. While the streets and bars have many sights and sounds to attract any visitor, there are also bargains and great condos to be found within the towers that surround Burgos Street.

There are 6 main towers (that have units for sale) that surround the Burgos Street area. They are Makati Palace, Citadel, Prime Tower, Sunette Tower, Millenium Plaza, and Oxford Suites. While these towers are not even close to the standard of buildings such as the Shangrila and other hotels in the Greenbelt area, they provide good value for condominium investors who are quite happy to live and visit there. After all, why pay hotel bills when you can get a cheap condominium?

The units selling in these developments are often 25-50% lower than new developments around Makati City. And as most visitors know, there are no new developments around Burgos Street as yet (except Bel Air SOHO which is sold out). So it's an older condo or nothing at the moment until newer developments spring up in 2-3 years time such as The Eaton Makati.

Below are some of the listings we have in the Burgos Street area. We represent all the towers surrounding Burgos Street, so if nothing from the list below interests you, please tell us which tower you are interested in, your budget and what size unit you are looking for, and we will find it!

1. 0001973 - 2 bed, 2 bath, 2 balcony, fully furnished, 65sqm, P4.0M
2. 0001976 - Studio, fully furnished, 36sqm, P2.6M
3. 0002130 - Makati City, Studio, fully renovated, 32sqm, P2.2M
4. 0002129 - 2 bed, 2 bath, 1 study, fully furnished, 99sqm, P5.75M
5. 0002128 - 1 bed, 1 bath, 1 study, fully furnished, 66sqm, P3.9M
6. 0002127 - Studio, fully furnished, 33sqm, P2.0M

Vacancy rates are extremely low in this location due to the large tourist numbers visiting Burgos Street every day. Whether it's for investment or personal use, buying an older resale condominium represents much better value and a great alternative to hotel charges for the regular visitor.
