Ayala Land is expanding its residential pipeline by introducing new lot offerings across master-planned estates in South and Central Luzon. Driven by end-user demand and normalised inventory levels, the launch spans new phases in Nuvali, Laguna and Lipa, Batangas, along with a fresh development in Tarlac's Cresendo estate. The projects benefit from regional economic activity and major infrastructure links, including CALAX and the North-South Commuter Railway.
Ayala Land has signed land lease agreements with Makro Philippines to open wholesale stores across four major mixed-use developments.

The structure allows Ayala Land to retain property ownership while generating recurring lease income from high-traffic commercial anchors.
Philippine property giant Megaworld has raised P5.6 billion from block sales of MREIT shares to fund its township development pipeline. The capital will back the next generation of recurring income assets ahead of a major fifth asset infusion.

Megaworld is expanding its regional office portfolio by constructing three new developments in Bulacan, Bacolod and Davao. These projects will introduce over 51,000 square meters of gross leasable space into the market. The expansion targets rising demand outside Metro Manila, with a strong focus on sustainable, LEED-certified buildings situated inside the developer's integrated township communities.
Global-Estate Resorts, Inc. (GERI), a subsidiary of Megaworld, is set to turn over P11 billion worth of projects this year. The deliveries include residential units and commercial lots across several provinces in the Philippines, including Cavite, Laguna, Batangas, Rizal and Aklan.
