MEGAWORLD
Corp., the listed property developer of tycoon Andrew Tan, has sold 80
percent of the commercial lots in a 9-hectare financial bloc within
Iloilo Business Park since selling started in 2013.
“These commercial
lots are already 80 percent sold to banks and financial institutions as
well as local enterprises, although these lots are also viable for
boutique hotel businesses as well,” the company said in a statement.
Banks setting up regional headquarters in the 9-hectare financial district include Metrobank and UnionBank.
“There
has been a strong interest from various sectors, particularly financial
and banking, to establish their businesses in Iloilo Business Park.
Since we announced the township being envisioned as Iloilo City’s new
central business district or CBD, everyone wants their presence here,”
said Jennifer Palmares-Fong, head of marketing of Iloilo Business Park.
Since
it started selling the commercial lots in 2013, Megaworld noted that
prices have increased by 49 percent to P70,000 per square meter (sqm)
from the original P47,000 per sqm in 2013.
