Now is
the best time to invest in real estate. News on rising
fuel and commodity prices and a sluggish US economy may
indicate otherwise, but Century Properties managing
director Marco Antonio asserts that investing in
property may be your best option to safeguard your
liquid financial resources or savings.
“A
real-estate investment is a good hedge against
inflation,” he said. “The value of currencies may rise
and fall, but property values will never go to zero,
unlike shares or hedge funds.”
Antonio
recommends investing in residential real estate, such as
high-rise condos located in prime city centers where
property values continue to appreciate. “Buyers have the
luxury at this moment to choose from a wide range of
residential properties, and to avail themselves of very
competitive pricing,” he adds.
For
those who are looking for a stylish yet practical
property investment in Makati, the country’s undisputed
premier financial, social and commercial district,
Century Properties’ The Knightsbridge Residences may be
the smart choice. “It is the product of our extensive
research into the features and amenities that the market
has been clamoring for,” he said. On the list below,
Antonio sums up what makes up a smart condo investment.
1.
Central location.
Choose a condo that is situated in a premier city center
with continuously appreciating property values, such as
Makati.
The
Knightsbridge Residences will be in the smartest
location of the metropolis—on Kalayaan Avenue in the
heart of modern Makati, and within the fully integrated
development called Century City, where dining,
entertainment and leisure facilities will be a short
walk away, and where you will be minutes away from
Makati’s foremost establishments, corporate centers,
five-star hotels, banks, schools and malls.
2.
Developed by a reputable firm.
Choose a developer with a proven track record and
experience, and a premier roster of completed projects.
With 22
years in real-estate development, marketing and
management, Century Properties has built a solid
reputation in delivering prime residential and office
projects. Included on its roster of premier high-rise
developments is the award-winning Essensa East Forbes;
South of Market at The Fort, the country’s first fully
fitted, fully furnished residential high-rise; Grand
Soho Makati, the only fully fitted, fully furnished
condo that offers residents three exceptional design
options; Soho Central, the country’s first-ever
transportation-oriented residential development; and The
Gramercy Residences, the first fully serviced, hyper-amenitized
luxury condo in the Philippines.
3. Fully
fitted, fully furnished units.
Pioneered by Century Properties, this concept aims to
eliminate all the move-in stresses from homebuyers, from
getting additional interior designers or contractors,
shopping for furniture or appliances to assembling
complicated cabinetry. The Knightsbridge Residences
carries this highly acclaimed feature, plus five
exceptional interior design options.
4.
Hypersized amenities.
Look for a condo that will expand your living experience
beyond the four walls of your unit. At The Knightsbridge
Residences, sprawling convergence areas called
hypersized amenities will amplify your enjoyment of
home. These amenities include an expansive designer
lobby, library and living room, recreational room, gym,
pool, spa, playroom, dining room and observatory.
5.
Stylish and affordable.
Choose a condo with a sleek but classic building design
that will boost your pride of ownership. The
Knightsbridge Residences will be a sight to behold with
its towering curvilinear architecture and huge
“Lanterns,” or levels of units with dramatic
floor-to-ceiling windows that will stand to impress as
iconic glass boxes that glimmer at night.
With the
project’s high-design and high-style qualities, plus an
affordable average price of below P2.5 million for a
27-sq-m unit, no other offer will stand out as ideal for
the smart investor. |
