Humble Beginnings


Soler Tower, Tytana Plaza, and Mandarin Mansion are the first projects of Federal Homes, Inc. in 1970s

Federal Land Inc. began in 1972 as Federal Homes, Inc. In the same year, it launched the Soler Tower to cater to the Filipino-Chinese community in Binondo, Manila. This was immediately followed by the launch of Tytana Plaza, Mandarin Mansion, Escolta Twin Towers, Dasma Corporate Center, and Federal Tower.

The success of Binondo projects and the increasing investor confidence led to an expansion in Pasay. In 1990, Federal Land launched Bayview International Towers along Roxas Boulevard. The project was one of the first prime developments in Pasay. After the reclamation of Manila Bay, Federal Land acquired 40 hectares to start a master-planned integrated community: Metro Park.

Setting its sights on producing more quality projects for its customers, Federal Land dedicated itself to building self-sustaining communities in Manila, Makati, Cavite, and Cebu. Early 2000 saw the rapid introduction of prime real estate projects such as Bay Garden Club Residences, Oriental Garden Makati, Florida Sun Estates, Valencia Hills, The Grand Midori Makati, Riverview Mansion, Marco Polo Plaza Cebu, and the landmark GT Tower International.

Since then, Federal Land has continued to build and deliver high-quality properties that are tailor-fit to the communities it chooses to serve. The Four Seasons Riviera in Binondo is designed with feng shui sensibilities. The Peninsula Garden Midtown Homes is intended to be a kid-friendly garden enclave ideal for starting families. The Quantum Residences is strategically located in between Manila’s university belt and Makati Central Business District to cater to young adults transitioning from students to professionals. Marquinton Residences, Tropicana Garden City, and Siena Towers gave Marikina citizens a new option aside from the traditional house and lot living. Mi Casa in the Bay Area brings in the modern tropical paradise streamlined for contemporary living. These projects stand as testimonies to Federal Land’s unrelenting commitment to building structures and communities that contribute to the progress of society.

Global Alliances
Not resting on its laurels, Federal Land continues to advance its vision of building exceptional properties through its alliance with renowned global brands.

In Cebu, Federal Land partnered with Marco Polo Hotels of Hong Kong to develop the five-star Marco Polo Plaza and the first branded residence, Marco Polo Residences.

In 2008, Federal Land partnered with Orix Corporation, a top real estate company in Japan, for the Grand Midori Makati on Legazpi Street. The partnership fused Filipino artistry and Japanese ingenuity and created a Zen oasis in the heart of the city. In 2012, Federal Land formed the Bonifacio Landmark Realty and Development Corporation, a joint venture with Orix Corporation, to bring the iconic Grand Hyatt Manila and Grand Hyatt branded residences to North Bonifacio Global City.

Mi Casa at Metro Park

Choosing a condo for investment is not an easy decision to make.  After all, there are several options on the market, each better than the last.  If you are interested in the Bay Area, then a Federal Land, Inc. condo is your best bet to grow your investment.  Here are five good reasons for buying and investing in Federal Land’s Metro Park.

 

Residences are resort-inspired communities

Mi Casa at Metro Park

The condominium communities of Metro Park redefine high-end living with a relaxing vacation atmosphere.  Residents will get the feeling of not just being at home, but also being like at a resort at the same time with its club-like amenities and tropical aesthetics against the backdrop of the world-famous Manila Bay sunset, only for the select few.

Prospective homebuyers and investors can choose from several deluxe resort communities.  There is the exclusive Bay Garden Club and Residences, the first community to rise in the Metro Park enclave.  There is the Six Senses Residences, distinctive for its lucky number eight shape. There is also the sunny Palm Beach Villas and Palm Beach West.

Federal Land’s latest offering by the bay is Mi Casa, a vibrant vertical residence reminiscent of Hawaii’s reinvigorating aesthetic of open sea and air.  Mi Casa will have four towers: Hawaii, Maui, Lanai, and Honolulu that will bring in the modern tropical paradise streamlined for Filipino contemporary living.

Each of the condominium communities offer thoughtfully designed and well-spaced units for comfortable living.  There are also intimate gathering spaces in the amenity deck to foster a close communal relationship.  Residents can host barbeque parties, movie nights and play dates all within a neighborhood that embraces the sun, wind, and sea.

 

Federal Land is one of the top developers in the country

As a homebuyer and investor, acquiring property from a reputable developer with a solid track record is a must.  It guarantees that the condominium project is delivered on time, has topnotch quality and set in a strategic location – three factors that will ensure your condo can fetch a good price in the secondary and rental market.

Founded in 1972, Federal Land has since developed over 55 large-scale projects that redefined the key areas of Metro Manila, Cavite and Cebu.  Federal Land is best known for its many iconic developments GT Tower International in Makati, Marco Polo Residences in Cebu, Grand Hyatt Manila in Bonifacio Global City, and the upcoming Norman Foster luxury condo The Estate Makati.

Metro Park is a master-planned community

The Metro Park community is a sprawling 36-hectare master-planned community in the business district of Bay Area, Pasay. Metro Park is a modern and vibrant community home to deluxe resort residences of Bay Garden Club and Residences, Six Senses Residences, Palm Beach Villas, Palm Beach West, and Mi Casa; stylish shopping centers of Blue Bay Walk, and Met Live; PEZA-accredited office towers iMet BPO; spacious event centers of Le Pavillon and Le Parc; elite Nursing school Manila Tytana Colleges; and a pet-friendly park – all set within the emerging Entertainment City.

With a workplace, mall, school, and park just a stone’s throw away, a balanced live-work-play lifestyle awaits residents looking to live the good life.

 

Bay Area is near business districts, university belt

The South Luzon Expressway and The Metro Manila Skyway

Though located on the western coast, the Bay Area can easily access the important places of the Metro Manila.  Bay Area is near the central business districts of Makati, Ortigas, and Bonifacio Global City.  The universities along Taft and España Avenues are also just a short drive away; while the theaters at Cultural Center of the Philippines and amusement rides of Star City are within Pasay City.

Travel to and fro Bay Area is also convenient with numerous roads and skyways connecting the area to the rest of Metro Manila.  There is the Metro Manila Skyway System, Manila–Cavite Expressway or Coastal Road, C5 South Link Expressway, NAIA Expressway, Macapagal Boulevard, and more.  Bay Area is also near the Ninoy Aquino International Airport and Port of Manila, providing more convenient transportation between the other destinations in the country.

 

Investment has high returns

Mi Casa at Metro Park

Colliers International Philippines foresees that the Bay Area will be among the most in demand and expensive condominiums for sale that will go beyond PHP300,000 (USD 5,700) per sq. meter.  The high demand and the soaring price are due to the influx of Chinese expatriates working in the Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGO).  Another reason is the rise of Bay Area as the entertainment capital of the country that houses four major casino resorts: Solaire Resort and Casino; City of Dreams Manila; Okada Manila; and Resorts World Bayshore.

Looking at some of the residences in Metro Park such Bay Garden Club and Residences and Palm Beach West, the prices per square meter has risen exponentially over the years.  In 2017, Palm Beach West is worth around Php 212,000 per square meters; which rose to Php 312,000 per square meter in 2019.  That is a 47% increase in just two years.

“The best thing about investing in a Federal Land condo is its quality.  I know I can resell or lease at high market value because its value is justified.  The community is in a great location, the amenities are well-planned, and the unit itself spacious and wonderful,” shares one of the Federal Land condo investors.

About Federal Land, Inc.

A prime real estate developer, Federal Land, Inc. is a member of GT Capital Holdings. With 47 years of experience in reshaping the skyline and with its commitment to invest in the country, Federal Land, Inc. creates properties built on trust, reliability, and integrity through its masterbrands, Federal Land and Horizon Land.


Park Avenue, Madison Park West, Central Park West, Times Square West, Park West, Grand Hyatt Manila, Grand Hyatt Manila Residences and The Seasons Residences are the exclusive contemporary residences rising in Grand Central Park that capture the essence and spark of New York City.

With the World Bank GDP growth projection of 6.4% and new pro-growth economic policies, the Philippines is poised to sustain its economic rise. The various infrastructure projects of the government and the private sectors hail optimism to both local and foreign investors across all segments, but especially for the real estate industry. In fact, Asia Property HQ tags the country as “one of the best locations for real estate investments in Southeast Asia”.

Zoning in on the residential landscape, Colliers International Philippines projects 15,100 new units to be introduced in 2019. While this figure is poised to increase, vacancy rates have seen a downturn at 11% for the coming period, indicating how the strong demand outweighs the supply available in the market.

This movement has influenced property prices to soar as well. Global Property Guide reported in 2017 “the average price for a 3-bedroom condominium increased by 4.3%” in Fort Bonifacio. Opportune is the word for the current scenario as property consultancies continue to report strong sales in luxury residential, and the urgency to snap up pre-sale properties as availability becomes null.


The Seasons Residences is a Federal Land Inc. project in partnership with Japan’s leading firms, Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd. and Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings, Ltd. The Seasons Residences will also feature the Philippines’ first Mitsukoshi Mall at podium level.

Prime real estate developer Federal Land Inc. is on top of this trend. In 2012, Federal Land introduced Grand Central Park, a 10-hectare master-planned community patterned after the dynamic New York City. Strategically located at North Bonifacio Global City (BGC), Taguig, Grand Central Park is home to multiple star projects such as the world-renowned Grand Hyatt Manila; two towers of luxury residences Grand Hyatt Manila Residences; the Japanese-themed community The Seasons Residences; the flagship store of Japan’s oldest surviving department store chain, Mitsukoshi Mall; and the upscale residential towers Park West, Park Avenue, Times Square West, Central Park West, and Madison Park West.

The mixed-use community is a confluence of international partnership and investment with brands well-known abroad. Grand Hyatt Manila Residences is a joint venture between Federal Land and ORIX Corporation of Japan, through North Bonifacio Landmark Realty and Development Corporation to bring in the Chicago-based Hyatt brand. To bring in Japanese ingenuity and lifestyle, Federal Land partnered with two of Japan’s leading firms, Nomura Real Estate Development Co., Ltd., and Isetan Mitsukoshi Holdings, Ltd. to develop The Seasons Residences and the Philippines’ first Mitsukoshi Mall.


A Grand Hyatt Manila Residences unit is adorned with white marble finishes, timber flooring, exotic wood textures, high ceilings, and top-of-the-line fixtures.

While most properties within the city are currently of re-selling status, Grand Central Park offers increasingly scarce additions to the pre-sale condominium pool. Only November last year, it saw launches for two of its world-class high-rises: Grand Hyatt Manila Residences – South Tower, and The Seasons Residences’ first tower called Haru.

Grand Hyatt Manila Residences – South Tower will be ready by 2023, and The Seasons Residences is set to be completed by 2027. Until then, the anticipation continues to build for property hunters and aficionados.

To know more about Grand Hyatt Manila Residences and The Seasons Residences, visit the website at www.federalland.ph or visit The Seasons Residences showroom at 7th Ave. corner 34th St., Grand Central Park, North BGC Taguig City.


The Grand Hyatt Manila and the two Grand Hyatt Manila Residences are beacons that marks the transformation of the North Bonifacio Global City only a community with the Grand Hyatt mark can deliver.
