AT the heart of every sustainable community, there must be small and medium enterprises that provide goods and services—and even employment opportunities—to residents and other folks residing in the vicinity.
Acknowledging this, Amaia Land Corp., a top-of-mind real-estate developer, makes sure that its thriving residential properties support different kinds of livelihood while offering access to major retail establishments.
Amaia Land has, to date, leased out 90 percent of its retail space in various Amaia Skies and Amaia Steps projects throughout Metro Manila, assuring homeowners of a comfortable living experience even as it offers quality, affordable homes.
Retail outlets, such as PureGold, 7-Eleven and Ministop—as well as service establishments like Banco de Oro (BDO) and Bank of the Philippine Islands—have set up their businesses in different Amaia Skies and Amaia Steps communities. Meanwhile, spaces that range in size from approximately 23 square meter (sq m) to 350 sq m remain available for food establishments, water refilling stations, kiosks and other franchises.
Amaia Skies Cubao, for instance, has leased out 80 percent of its leasable area of 214 sq m across from STI University. With a laundry shop, water refilling station and an eatery set to open, daily services are now at the resident’s doorstep.
Amaia’s prime spaces, key locations and fine incentives make it attractive to retail businesses. All Amaia retail spaces offer 90 days free rent to its residents and prospective entrepreneurs. This explains why, at Amaia Skies Avenida, which is near hospitals, an Light Rail Transit station and a variety of shopping and dining establishments, 100 percent of its retail area has been leased out.
Meanwhile, at Amaia Skies Santa Mesa, which offers a gross leasable area of around 1,579 sq m, establishments that include PureGold, 7-Eleven and Fastbreak Laundry Lounge have taken up 83 percent of its retail space.
At Amaia Steps Sucat, more than 50 percent of its gross leasable area of around 1,959 sq m have been leased out to 7-Eleven, BDO, Security Bank, Philam Life, Ineng’s, JacoBean Café & Pastry Shop, Ababu Persian Kitchen and Foodie Corner.
Finally, there is Amaia Steps Bicutan, which has a total leasable area of around 1,182 sq m. Located in Barangay Sun Valley, it boasts heavy foot traffic along the West Service Road. A 347-sq-m area is still open for leasing, as 7-Eleven, Kambal Pandesal, Binalot, BDO, Family Doc, Nailandia and Washeroo Laundry have already set up shop in the area.
The Bicutan development, likewise, offers a commission worth one month’s rent for every closed deal.
