As it is one of the most important central business districts in the country, the Bay Area is bustling with real estate projects: it’s become the well-known site of SM Mall of Asia, the Solaire Resort and Casino; City of Dreams Manila, Okada Manila, and Metro Park.  With foreign investors boosting its growth, the Bay Area is set to overtake Makati CBD by 2021.

If you’re looking into owning a condo in the Bay Area but still aren’t convinced that condo living is for you, take a look at the advantages of living in a Bay Area condo:

The Central Business Park

If you work in the Bay Area, then buying a condo for sale near your workplace saves you from a long commute. A shorter commute means more time for yourself and your family, and condo living ensures that convoluted traffic won’t be a problem ever again!  Federal Land condominiums, such as Mi Casa, are located within the Central Business Park island of Bay Area.

The Entertainment City

On the western side of Roxas Boulevard lies Entertainment City, the Philippine version of the Las Vegas Strip.  Entertainment City boasts four mega-casino resorts with high-stakes tables, a vibrant nightlife, and big-name Broadway plays.

A Foodie’s Paradise

From gourmet food to seaside markets, the bay has a lot to offer to food enthusiasts: there’s Dampa, along the seaside of Macapagal Avenue, where you can buy fresh seafood and have it cooked at nearby restaurants; Sofitel manila offers Spiral, a grand buffet with 21 dining ateliers; a yacht cruise dinner; and a diner with singing cooks and waiters!

Road Accessibility

Mi Casa is between Macapagal and Roxas, the two most traveled boulevards in Pasay City. These boulevards seamlessly connect Mi Casa to other spots in Metro Manila, including the Makati Central Business District, Manila’s University Belt, Ninoy Aquino International Airport, and the upcoming Sangley Airport.

Convenience and Comfort

New condos like Mi Casa have various retail stores on the ground level of the building. If you want a quick snack or a new haircut, head down to the commercial level to find the shop you need!

Safety and Security

For those who prioritize home safety and security, living in a condo is something to consider. Condominiums have secured entry and exit points, CCTV cameras at all common areas, and 24/7 roaming security guards. Some condos also use key cards instead of keys, restricting elevator access to residential floors and ensure the privacy and safety of the residents and their homes.

Resort Amenities

Condo living makes amenities like the pool and gym more affordable and more accessible to most city folk. Why break the bank building a backyard pool or indoor gym when you could buy a condo that comes with one?

Newer condominiums in the Bay Area even have other amenities that complement the stunning Manila Bay sunset. Residents can enjoy lounge pools, the wet play area, the kids’ playground, and alfresco dining. Indoor amenities also include a fitness gym and meeting and function rooms.

Investment Potential

Condos are also a great investment opportunity – they’re easy to purchase and appreciate rapidly. Should you move to another city, you can resell or rent out your unit.

Real estate agency Colliers International Philippines notes that the Bay Area condominiums are among the most sought after and expensive – even going beyond PHP300,000 per square meter.  The demand stems from the influx of Chinese expatriates working in the Philippine Offshore Gaming Operations (POGO) and the city’s rise as Entertainment City.

So, are you ready to pick your condo?

Prime real estate developer Federal Land, Inc. has several condominiums available for pre-selling and ready for occupancy in the Bay Area, Pasay City.  Its master-planned integrated community called Metro Park is home to several premier and luxury condominium properties such as the Bay Garden Club and Residences, Palm Beach West, Palm Beach Villas, Six Senses Residences, and its latest development, Mi Casa.

Mi Casa is a vibrant vertical residence reminiscent of Hawaii’s reinvigorating aesthetic of open sea and air.   With its sparkling water features, resort-like amenities, and island aesthetics, Mi Casa takes you to experience Hawaii’s reinvigorating sense of open sea and air.

It’s also a stone’s throw away to the world-class casino-resorts, upscale malls, event centers, and the offices of the Bay Area Business District. You need only walk to get to work, the grocery, or fine dining restaurants.

As the country’s economy continues to rise and its citizens continue to thrive, consumer demands change and product preferences shift.  This is especially felt in the real estate industry; wherein current developments reflect the property preferences of the majority.

The newly established families prefer to carefully consider all relevant factors before investing their hard-earned money.  A highly popular choice is a more integrated package of having everything in one place such as in a township.

Townships are master planned, integrated mixed-use developments that offer residents the convenience to live, work, and play in one place.  Unlike the typical gated subdivisions and solo condominium towers, the appeal and value of townships lie on its convenience and accessibility as townships develop residential units within walking distance to corporate offices, retail shops, lifestyle hubs, and sometimes even schools and hospitals.

Prime real estate developer Federal Land Inc. is on top of this new standard.  In 2000, Federal Land introduced Metro Park, 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 luxury resort residences, stylish shopping centers, thriving business hubs, exciting weekend event spaces, and an elite college – all set within the emerging Entertainment City.

Deluxe Resort Community

Six Senses Residences at Metro Park

The first community to rise in Metro Park enclave is Bay Garden Club and Residences, an exclusive three-tower residence that carries Federal Land’s signature of developing vacation homes.

The Palm Beach Villas and Palm Beach West are both four-tower resort-inspired communities crafted to welcome warmth and relaxation.  Each unit is designed to give space to unwind and a resort-inspired amenity deck to complete the urbane and adventurous lifestyle.

Distinctive for its lucky number eight shape, the Six Senses Residences is a six-tower deluxe project in the bustling Macapagal – Bay Area district.  Each tower is defined with elegant edges and refined curves of interiors reminiscent of classic sculptures. It places more units at opportune and spacious corners, immersing your home to the infinite wonders that lay just beyond the horizon of Manila Bay.

Mi Casa – Hawaii Tower at Metro Park

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.

Mi Casa offers thoughtfully designed spaces that evoke Hawaii’s tight-knit community with intimate gathering spaces that highlight 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.

Central Park and Commercial Centers

Blue Bay Walk is also a lifestyle hub where authenticity and relaxation fuse together to indulge the senses.  More than a strip mall, Blue Bay Walk offers signature shops and branded boutiques for the fashionable without the worries of overcrowding.

Met Live at Metro Park

Metro Park is also home to Toyota Manila Bay Corporation (TMBC), a forerunner in the automotive industry principally engaged in the sales and maintenance of Toyota vehicles.

 

Top Tier Nursing School

Manila Tytana at Metro Park

First known as the Manila Doctors Hospital School of Nursing in 1975, Manila Tytana College is one of the country’s top nursing schools with a 100% passing rate in the June 2018 Nursing Licensure Exams.  The school offers bachelors, masters, doctorate, and short Nursing courses; as well as Psychology, Nutrition, IT, Communication, Accountancy and Management courses.
