Eton Properties Philippines, Inc.’s year-to-date reservation sales in 2010 have already matched the company’s total annual reservation sales in 2009. On the sidelines of a press briefing for the company’s newly launched First Homes Inc. subsidiary, Eton President & COO Danilo Ignacio shared that strong demand for the company’s projects have resulted in record-breaking sales in the first half of the year.
Bulk of sales came from fast-selling projects such as Eton Tower Makati, Eton City , North Belton Communities, 68 Roces and 8 Adriatico. Eton Tower Makati, the company’s best selling project, is located near Ayala Avenue . Sales take-up of Eton’s three residential projects in Eton City, the company’s township project in Sta. Rosa, have also been very strong with the near completion of the huge 35-hectare man-made lake in South Lake Village, the high-end lakeside community within the development. The company’s luxury residences in 68 Roces, Eton’s premier high-end project in Quezon City , continues to be strong helped by the opening of its model units. 8 Adriatico, a 40-storey condominium, next to Robinsons Manila, has enjoyed strong sales due to its advantageous location and affordability. Meanwhile, the company’s North Belton Communities project in Quezon City continues to enjoy strong sales take-up with demand for 2 and 3 bedroom house-and-lot units in West Wing Villas at record levels.
Buoyed by strong market demand, the company recently launched a new brand that will cater to the broader lower affordable market segment. Called First Homes, the brand aims to address the in-city housing needs of Filipinos in strategic areas at the periphery of the country’s major CBDs. First Homes’s initial development, Aurora Heights Residences, is a transit-oriented development of two 20-storey mid-rise buildings.
