5 reasons that make Fortis Residences a wise investment

Have you ever dreamed of owning a home at the heart of Makati City, the country’s main business district? It’s time to make that Makati address a reality through DMCI Homes Exclusive.

1. First Class Location

   Fortis Residences’ address at 2250 Chino Roces Avenue, Makati is one of the property’s biggest selling points. Residents will only be a stone’s throw away from key locations, namely 1.8 kilometers (km) away from the Ayala central business district, and 6 km away from both the Bonifacio Global City in Taguig and the Aseana City in Parañaque. 

   Fortis Residences is conveniently situated to balance work and play. Malls like the Glorietta complex and Makati Cinema Square are within a 2-km radius, as well as schools like the Colegio de San Agustin, Assumption College, Don Bosco Technical Institute-Makati, and the Asian Institute of Management. Meanwhile, the Ateneo Graduate School of Business in Rockwell is less than 5 kms from the property. 

   Frequent flyers don’t have to travel far as the Ninoy Aquino International Airport is only 4.4 kms away. By car, Fortis Residences is accessible via EDSA, the Skyway Stage 3, and Osmeña Highway, connecting residents to other cities as well as provinces surrounding Metro Manila. Public transport may also be an option given its proximity to the Metro Rail Transit and even the planned intra-city subway in Makati.

2. Property Value Appreciation

   Real estate valuations have nowhere to go but up especially for in-demand locations like Makati. Fortis Residences is particularly a wise investment given its prime location and the top-notch quality of every unit. The DMCI Homes Exclusive brand elevates the quality of day-to-day living, with wide unit layouts and top-tier architecture from the lobby to the sky promenade. 

   The side-by-side commercial and residential buildings further raises the property value at Fortis Residences. Real estate prices are consistently on the rise, and data from the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas show that condominium prices in Metro Manila saw a 35.5 percent increase from 2016 to 2021 – a lucrative gain in just five years. Property prices climbed even during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. 

   Long-term property investments likewise give substantially higher returns relative to other investment platforms like time deposits (approximately 3% per annum as of August 2022), and at a lower risk level compared to stocks. The entire strip of Chino Roces is also being developed into a mixed-use development dubbed as the Makati Southwest Gateway, further raising future property valuations.

3. Upgraded City Living

   Fortis Residences provides the most luxurious living spaces under the DMCI Homes Exclusive brand to date. Units are extra spacious and come with sophisticated furnishings such as tall picture windows, built-in closets, split-type air conditioning units, digital door locks, and internet connectivity upon turnover. A two-bedroom unit ranges from 72.5 to 100 square meters (sqm), while a three-bedroom property provides 143.5 to 152.5 sqm of living space. 

Amenities elevate the DMCI brand of resort-inspired facilities with intricately designed open spaces and modern contemporary architecture. The lobby drop off area is first-class at first glance with high ceilings and a luxe fountain greeting guests. The rooftop not only offers majestic views of the Makati skyline on one end and of the Manila Bay on the other, but it also houses a refreshing garden, adult pool, and basketball court.

4. Sustainable, future-ready facilities

Fortis Residences puts a premium into sustainable living as it recognizes the need to minimize carbon emissions and waste. The promise of an upgraded lifestyle comes alongside green facilities, namely an LED smart lighting fixtures in common areas, and charging ports for electric vehicles.
