How to Spot Good Real Estate Deals

Every great investment starts with a great deal. Investors looking to start their real estate portfolio or even a bachelor planning to buy his first condominium unit must learn how to spot a great deal to make sure that their hard-earned money will turn into a valuable investment. Here are some tips to remember if you want to spot a good real estate deal. It’s a numbers game. According to real estate blogger Brandon Turner, property hunters have to understand that snapping up good deals is largely a numbers game. You have to check out tons of listings in a specific area and narrow the leads down according to your preference. For instance, if you are looking for a good deal in Mandaluyong, try to determine your own pre-qualifications. Should the property be near major throughways? Should it be below PHP 2 million? Should you consider foreclosed properties? Once you have narrowed your choices, you have to analyze the value of the properties. Which among them do you think would appreciate in a reasonable amount of time and for what reasons? Location, location, location! Getting a good real estate deal all boils down to the location of the property. This does not necessarily mean that it should be at the heart of a business district or even along its peripheries. After all, location is also about connectivity and accessibility. The key is to identify areas where it is easy to travel to and from major places of interest. For example, Read More …

Why the Philippines will be an Economic Powerhouse by 2050

The Philippines will be one of the world’s powerful economies by 2050 – largely driven by its population growth, according to a report by professional services giant PwC. In its 2017 report “The long view: how will the global economic order change by 2050?” PwC ranked 32 of the largest economies in the world, accounting for around 85% of world GDP, by their projected global gross domestic product by purchasing power parity. PwC analysis pegs the growth potential of the Philippines at #19 with a projected GDP at PPP of $3.334 trillion.

The report notes that many of the current powerful economies will be replaced by emerging markets in 33 years time. The Philippines is projected to make one of the greatest moves up the rankings, from IMF’s 2016 estimates at 28th spot to 19th spot in the 2050 PwC analysis for projections. The Philippines is projected to have an average annual GDP growth rate from 2016 to 2050 at 4.3%. The PwC report shows how growth in many emerging economies like the Philippines will be supported by relatively fast-growing populations, boosting domestic demand and the size of the workforce. PwC asserts though that this will, however, need to be complemented with investment in education Read More …
