What are the benefits to owning a Condotel Unit rather than other real estate investments?

Rent Revenue: Condotel units will produce rental revenues. That revenue can partially or completely offset the costs of owning and maintaining the Vacation Home and give a Real estate investor good rates on return on his investments from a low 8% to a high 16% ROI per annum depending upon the purchase price and terms of payment for the Condo Hotel Suite.

Appreciation Potential: The best selling point of Condotels as investment property is the rate at which they appreciate. Especially when purchasing at the pre-construction stage of the project. The rate of appreciation throughout the Philippines is generally negative in rural areas. However, cities such as Metro Manila and Cebu see steady annual property appreciation rates depending upon locations between 10% to 18%. The Philippines registered a net 12.5% real estate appreciation during 2007, the highest in South East Asia and preconstruction appreciation rates are much higher in 30% per annum range. Most Condotels are located specifically in areas that have seen and continue to see high appreciation rates such as Metro Manila and Mactan, Cebu. Furthermore, it is the Condotel Properties that are seeing higher appreciation rates than traditional single family homes and condos.

Diminished Supply Of Available Land: Desirable locations to build in the Philippines are not limitless. There is a dwindling supply of available land in key markets such as Metro Manila’s much sought after Ortigas Center and Makati locales. In Cebu, the highly desirable Mactan is an Island and available building land at prime locations are fast being sold which ensures that Condotels built in these locations will have seen significant real property appreciation.

Condotels Appeal To International Investors: Condotels are particularly attractive to International Investors whom wish to own a Vacation Home and an Investment Property in the Philippines and yet don’t have any of the hassles of maintenance or renting out the property when they are not using it. With property values flattening off and rental incomes weakening in US the Philippines, only 16 hours away, offers an idea alternative at prices far less than anything available in the US. Less than $55,000 will purchase a reasonable, fully furnished, 400sqft Studio at the Lancaster Cebu.

The new Lancaster Atrium Tower II presents an even better purchase opportunity for International Property Investors. Studio Suites, at the Current Price can be purchased from $46,000.00 with current projected Real Property Appreciation of some 60-80% during construction and on turnover of the unit.

Purchasing at this Launch Price would give a projected Annual ROI through future Rental Incomes of some 12-16% per annum when operational.

Additionally, the value of the Philippine Peso has enabled many European and American Investors to obtain upscale Condotel units for what amounts to “Bargain Prices” or for the same price as a “Garage” back home.
