In 2018 the Philippines just scored behind Vietnam and China with an economic growth rate of 6%. The outlook
for the real estate industry remains positive given that efforts from the Government are adding considerable push
towards growth. Analysts at Colliers Philippines see the Government’s ‘BBB’ as the biggest factor and advice
The Philippines recorded 10.9% RERBA growth in 2018, which was quicker than 7.7% in the past year. The
main reason for this increase is in rent and other businesses, which recorded a development level of 17% in
2018 compared to 11.0% in the prior year. Dwelling's ownership also rose to 2.1% compared to 2.9% last year.
In addition, gross value added in real estate, rental and business activities increased by 10.9% in 2018.
The TRAIN Law or the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion went into effect in 2018 (Pinnacle, n.d.). The
government's tax revenue goal for 2018 was PHP63.3B. This has a mixed effect on the economy, on one hand
it it helps finance the government-led' BBB' program by ensuring there is available capital. The increase in carbon
and oil tax would also have a significant and instant effect on the costs of constructing buildings and other
infrastructure.

The TRAIN law, however, also implies changes to taxes on personal income. In accordance with the current law,
taxpayers expect to benefit from reduced taxes against their income. This reduction will only be good for
The 2nd TRAIN package, which reduces corporate taxes from 30% to 25% (Rivas, 2018), was received with
mixed feelings within the corporate community. TRAIN 2 removes corporate PEZA incentives, which means a
long list of benefits including fiscal holidays and streamlined import-export processes.
Among other factors, experts at Colliers have observed that the real estate market climate remains favorable in
The BPO industry is still enjoying a boom in 2018 (David, 2019). It is set to continue the route until 2020 with an
increase of employed workforce from 1.5 million to 1.7 million. This is despite the Trump Administration’s stance
against outsourcing jobs. The industry remains a growth driver and the main source of demand for offices. This
positive trend despite the political backdrop is due in fact to the quality of workers found in the Philippines and
their relatively cheaper salary rates. A young and well-educated workforce is churned out by the Philippines
Coming from 2018, the BPO sector is still riding a positive trend (David, 2019). This is expected to continue until
2020, with BPO and KPO employees increasing from 1.5 million to 1.7 million. This is despite the position of the
Trump Administration against outsourcing employment. The sector continues to be a driver of real estate
development and the primary driver office space demand. This positive trend is due to the quality of workers
found in the Philippines and their relatively cheaper salary rates. A young and well-educated workforce is churned
OFW Remittances
23
The total remittances of OFWs between April and September 2018 was projected at 235,9 billion pesos (Rivas,
OFW sending increases for May 2018, 2018). These included cash that was sent to the Philippines (169.4 billion
pesos), cash taken back overseas (55.2 billion pesos) and in-kind remittances (11.2 billion pesos). Most OFWs
sent remittances via banks (52.8%), the remainder via money transfers.

Technological
One of the biggest and most impactful application of Machine Learning on the Real Estate Industry is Zestimate.
Zestimate “was created to give consumers as much information as possible about homes and the housing
market, marking the first-time consumers had access to this type of home value information at no cost.” Currently,
28
the median margin of error is down to 5% from 14% when it first started in 2017. It uses 1.7 million data points
The potential for Machine Learning is yet to be applied in the Philippine Real Estate industry but developers
should keep an eye on technology given its incredible potential. Given enough digital transformation in how Real
estate developers do business, it is inevitable that Machine Learning technologies will play an important role
business success.

What’s notable about this technology is the speed benefit and the cost reduction involved in building structures.

Rappler reported on the report released by We Are Social and Hootsuite on metrics regarding internet usage by
country. The Philippines came out number one in 2018, the same spot it was in for the fourth straight year.
“In the Philippines, time spent online daily soared from 9 hours and 29 minutes last year to 10 hours and 2
minutes this year, the highest in the world. Coming in second is Brazil, clocking in at 9 hours and 29 minutes,

while Thailand is third at 9 hours and 11 minutes. Last year, the Philippines came in second to Thailand at 9
There are massive implications from this phenomenon as far as the real estate industry is concerned. To paint
a picture of this, as an example, Lamudi launched its “Digital Property Seekers Report” in 2018 that primary uses
online metrics to rate customer sentiment and interest regarding the real estate market.
The implication is, if a firm wants to know its customers, it needs to go where they are. Filipino customers are
online.
Socio-Cultural Forces
Population Growth
According to the Commission on Population, the Philippines’ total population is at 107,190,081 as of 2018. About
4,965 are added per day with an annual increase of 1.69 percent vs 1.55 percent in the previous year.
The World Population Review has projections for 2030 population levels to be at 125 million. That means there
is one birth every 14 seconds, one death every 50 seconds and a net gain of one person every 21 seconds.
Population growth is one of the key market drivers for the real estate industry. The population density in one
area, the trends it displays in terms of migration and growth rates directly impact the real estate industry.
Housing Backlog
The current classification for housing market segments recognized in the Philippines are socialized, economic,
low cost, mid end, and high end. This classification of housing market segments is determined by the price range.
Key Shelter Agencies (KSAs) like the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Council (HUDCC) and
Home Guarantee Corporation (HGC), as well as, private housing developer associations

There is currently a housing backlog in the Philippine that’s projected to reach 6.8 million by 2022. Even at

Metro Manila's demand for hotel rooms is still supported by tourists coming from the usual countries such as
South Korea, the United States, China, and Japan. Together they account for around 60 percent of the country's
total international arrivals. Real estate specialists are forecasting a 10 percent increase to 6.6 million in 2018,
slower than the 17 percent or 7 million visitors projected by the department of tourism.
Domestic travel or "staycations" is anticipated to maintain demand for 3-and 4-star hotels. In addition, budget
hotels are still common among individuals between the ages for 25-35 years old who make up more than half of
local tourists.
Environmental
Climate Change
Climate change remains a major issue, with 2018 being the fourth hottest year since 1880. The effects of global
warming are already being felt in the Philippines, which is why policies for reducing emissions are being
undertaken by real estate developers including the adoption of measures to mitigate climate change vulnerability
Traffic Woes
According to a research undertaken by the Boston Consulting Group, the NCS in the Philippines ranked 3rd in
Southeast Asia's worst traffic and demonstrates that Metro Manila Motorist and Commuters are trafficked for an
average of 66 minutes per day. Drivers also spend an average of 24 minutes per day looking for parking on top
of 66 minutes of traffic experience. In addition, travel time doubles in the morning and in the evening rush hours
The real estate industry comprises a wide range of aspects of property development, that includes the land and
the structure on top of it, the growth and assessment of the property, the relevant rules and regulations that
govern it, the sales and marketing processes surrounding the sale and lease of the property, the actual
construction and development of the structures and property and the continuous management, maintenance and
administrative support over the property. All these steps are part of the real estate value chain.

The Initiation stage is the start of the development life cycle. This stage is defined as the idea inception. No
formal feasibility study is involved in this stage, simply the entertainment an idea for a property development
project. At this point ideas are considered if they are feasible, in theory, or not.
The real estate industry is complex and involves a lot of resources and talent. Given that it requires massive
capital, the industry is sensitive to economic, social, technological and legal forces. As a result, part of the real
estate life cycle is the continual redevelopment, remodel, upgrade and remake of the property to ensure its

There are a handful of big, multi-billion pesos property development firms competing in this industry. The market
is still growing, growth rate for 2018 was 10.9 percent. Property prices are also climbing. However, these firms
are like each other in terms of size, product offering, and capabilities. Overall the rivalry among competing firms
is Medium.
The barriers to entry for new firms in this industry is weak given that the needed capital is high, the industry itself
is highly regulated, and setting up the logistics is difficult since the operation is resource intensive.
The substitute products that concern big property developers is the customer’s capability of constructing and
developing real estate on their own with smaller construction firms. The principle of economies of scale is active
in this situation, the bigger firms will have an upper hand since they would have access to cheaper debt, cheaper
raw materials, and leverage over suppliers. The potential for substitutes is weak.
Big construction firms are not limited by one big supplier, rather they have a vast number of suppliers they can
choose from. But despite this leverage, the variety of inputs puts some of bargaining power over to suppliers.
The three major resources that property developers need are land, labor and capital. Of the three, labor and
capital carry the potential for gaining leverage over the firms. Labor, for example, can be taken over by unions
and wages are regulated by the DOH. Capital, in the form of debt, are supplied by big banks and are also
regulated by the government. With these points the bargaining power of suppliers is Medium.
Given that there are only a handful of property developers that can offer high quality products with prices to
match, the buyer has little bargaining power. The level is weak.

Growth Trends
At the end of 2018, an occupancy of over 370.000 sqm of office space (4 million sq feet) was reported which is
over the original forcasted number of 344.000 sq meters (3.7 million sq feet), this is according to a report by
Colliers. The number is 31% greater year on year. Total office space occupied in 2018 reached 1.18 million sq
meters, a record high for Metro Manila, and exceeded the initial projection made by analysts by 1.15 million sq
meters.
Analysts at Colliers predict that the strong demand will continue all throughout 2019, as 28% of buildings
projected to be completed end of 2019 are already pre-leased. Based on data from 2018, Colliers expects
Alabang, Makati CBD, Fort Bonifacio, and the Bay Area to record the strongest occupancy rates in 2019.
For the period from 2019 to 2021, Colliers projects a net consumption of around 900,000 square meters per year
on average. Furthermore, their predictions show that demand is progressing with fresh production. Colliers

they have similar levels of revenue, capex, and similar product offerings.
a. Competitor #1 – SM Prime
SM Prime Holdings, Inc. is one of the largest integrated property developers in Southeast Asia that offers
innovative and sustainable lifestyle cities with the development of malls, residences, offices, hotels and
convention centers.
SM Prime Holdings, Inc. was incorporated in the Philippines in 1994. They started as a mall developer and
operator and grew to be the biggest retail shopping center developer and operator in the Philippines. Currently,
it has 58 malls in and outside Metro Manila and 6 shopping malls in China, totaling 8.5 million square meters of

Megaworld was founded by Andrew Tan and incorporated under Philippine law on August 24,1989 under the
name of Megaworld Properties & Holdings, Inc. Megaworld was primarily organized to engage in real estate
From 1989 to 1996, it garnered a reputation for building high-end residential condominiums and office buildings
on a stand-alone basis throughout Metro Manila. In 1996, it shifted its focus to providing office buildings to
support BPO businesses when it began development of the Eastwood City community township.
Since its incorporation in 1989, the Company and its affiliates have launched approximately 222 residential
buildings, office buildings and hotels consisting an aggregate of more than 5.7million square meters.
Megaworld's real estate portfolio includes residential condominium units, subdivision lots and townhouses, as
well as office projects and retail space. Its consolidated revenues for the year 2010 were P20,541.8 million. Real
estate sales of residential developments accounted for 64% of the company's consolidated revenues in 2010.
Filinvest Land, Inc. (FLI), a subsidiary of Filinvest Development Corporation (FDC), is one of the country’s leading
full-range property developers. For over 50 years, the company has built a diverse project portfolio spanning the
archipelago, from its core best-value homes, to townships, mixed-use developments, mid-rise and high-rise

Mixed-use estates, townships and masterplanned communities are currently the rising trend among design
principles followed by big property developers. Not only is the idea built with customer’s lifestyle in mind, but as
well as conforming to trends that put the environment into consideration. Mixed-use estates are the future of
property development, therefore developers that are guided by this design principle would naturally display it in
their products.
Location Accessibility
Location accessibility is one the core factors that are involved in a buyer’s decision making. The property’s
location in relation to central business districts and roads and highways that lead to the CBD’s are taken into
consideration.
Project Quality
Overall project quality refers to the quality of amenities and good property design that adopted by the developer.
Quality is one the biggest factors that come into play when buyers consider a purchase.
To move inventories, an appropriate amount of inner and external sales staff is required. Wide distribution reach
Another factor client look at is a developer's track record. Buyers tend to select developers with a name and
reputation over small-scale developers who are not partially recognized because of just a few innovations.
Marketing Capability
In order to penetrate its market heavily, a business must advertise its advances through many types of media.
The events are exposed to prospective customers through the media and create an effect in the minds of
consumers.
Opportunities
O1. BPO and KPO demand for Office space still strong
The BPO industry in the Philippines is seen to remain still one of the biggest demand drivers for the
office space market. Analysts are attributing the continued surge for demand to rising wages in the United
States and a weaker peso that makes the labor market in the Philippines attractive to multinational firms.

had the biggest demand at 1.16 million sqm according to a report by Leechui Property Consultants.

Revenues
Operating Expenses
The company is well established in CBD’s, it has 40% of it’s Total Net Income coming from Makati Central
Business District, BGC and Arca. Combined they represent PHP 11.68 billion of ALI’s net income in 2018.
Of all twenty-two CBD’s in the Philippines, the company has properties in thirteen.
Strength #2 – Has a broad product portfolio Solid Track Record of Building Large-Scale, Integrated, Mixed-Use,
Rating 4 - ALI’s set of products and services is one of the widest and most diverse in the industry. Its investments
range from property development and leasing, to transportation and property management.
ALI takes advantage of the synergy created from designing estates for mix-use. Ayala Land has products for
residential, shopping malls and offices to commit to the idea of live-work-play which is currently dictating design
Rating 4 - The company has an advantage of having its own construction firm; Makati Development Corp. Raw
materials and construction services are being sourced within Ayala Land’s parent company which is the Ayala
Corporation. This allows the company to have greater control over costs and quality of its construction initiatives.
Rating 4 - The advantages are, to name a few, the command for premium price because of the status of leader.
We can see that reflected in Ayala Land Premier, ALI’s premium residential brand, currently the single biggest
revenue contributor and the biggest in terms of size in the relative market with a revenue size of PHP 28 billion
Other advantages are the ability to leverage economies of scale, consumer loyalty and awareness, overall more
exposure.
Rating 4 – Ayala Land sees organizational development is a key for strategic growth. Ayala Land empowers its
employees by providing them a work environment that promotes personal fulfillment and professional
advancement. Compensation and benefits are based on experience and contributions to the growth of the
company. Ayala Land also makes sure to offer competitive industry rates to retain the best employees.
Rating 4 - Access to capital is one the most critical factors in the real estate development business. Ayala Land
is strongly positioned in terms of funding capacity. It has managed favorable long-term debt agreements with
Currently, ALI’s total borrowing is at PHP 187.1 billion and 92% of it is long term debt at PHP172.7 billion.

Weaknesses
Weaknesses #1 – High employee attrition rate of 12.69% versus 4.99% for the entire industry.
Rating 1 – Employee attrition is disruptive the business. It increases costs through the need to hire replacements,
costs associated to training new hires to reach functional competence and the intangible asset of employee
ALI has been able to lower its attrition rate in the last 3 years from a high of 13.57% to its current of 12.69.
Ayala Land has put in measures to curb attrition by conducting organizational climate surveys to determine
employee engagement rates and address concerns, empowerment of employees and professional development
possibilities.
Included in ALI’s initiatives are setting up the proper policies such as succession planning, transfers,
Weaknesses #2 – Predominantly invested in upper market segments with a considerably weaker presence in
Rating 2 - ALI’s strongly represented in the luxury market segment under residential products. This is good on
its own yet there is an opportunity cost incurred from not taking advantage of opportunities in other market
segments.
Currently BellaVista is Ayala Land’s brand in approaching the economic market segments, Amaia is its brand for
the low middle market segment. These two businesses represent PHP1.15 billion and PHP7.36 billion in
revenues respectively. Given ALI’s state, it can afford to explore new opportunities to increase market share in
Weaknesses #3 – Limited use of new and available technology relevant to the business
81
Rating 1 - For its size and status, ALI has yet to migrate to cloud services. It is currently in the pipeline to migrate
from on-premise solutions over to cloud based solutions, however the technology has been around for more than
a decade.
On premise solutions mean ALI has yet to take advantage of unique features from cloud solutions. One is access
to scalable computational speed and space. As systems and applications grow in complexity along with the
nature of the business, on-premise solutions become more expensive since the technological infrastructure
would have to be upgraded to keep up. Not so in cloud computing, in fact, such computational platforms can
fully accommodate growth in size and sophistication of enterprise wide data architectures.

Strategic Objective:
Ayala Land’s strategic objective is to secure its position as market leader in the Philippine real estate industry
and to widen the gap between itself and its competitors by continuing aggressive market development strategies
such as building large-scale, mixed use integrated communities. Specifically, the strategic objective is intended
to be achieved by increasing gross leasable area with the construction of new shopping malls and office buildings
and by directly focusing on operational capacity to address the massive housing supply gap in the lower market

The current demand for Office space is still outpacing the supply. In 2018, the current uptake for office
space was at 450,000 sqm annually. At the current rate of supply, only about 120,000 to 150,000 sqm is available
for companies to occupy, leaving much to be desired. The continues growth of the office space market is a sign

the Philippine market. The main drive, specifically, is from the food and beverage industry that lead 2018’s market
demand. Fast fashion brands in the like of clothing and apparel, shoes and bags also dominated the retail market
Since a large sum of ALI’s revenues are hinged in its shopping mall revenue, this positive growth trend should
be pursued.

Ayala Land Hotels and resorts has 2,973 units as of 2018 yearend, with an additional 3,096 units under

According to reports, the Philippines received an estimated 7.1 million tourists in 2018. It is expected to
grow up to about 6 to 7% every year in the next 5 years. It means that the demand for hotel rooms is expected
to increase as well. With this rising demand, other players in the construction, casino and resorts, transportation,
and many more all over the country and abroad can take advantage of this growing market.
The main demand for hotel units is coming from Paranaque where it commands the highest occupancy,
this the result of demand coming from casino gamers and pushed further by its proximity to NAIA, the end result
is an occupancy rate of about 90% up. Other areas including Makati and BGC are also positively affected by
this.
CAPEX requirement for continued construction and expansion for 2019 is PHP6.5 billion which is 5% of the total
Market Penetration Strategy 5: Increase GLA for co-living and co-working spaces
JLL noted the trend for co-living and co-working concepts in the Philippines as early as 2017. The attractiveness
of the idea for young Filipinos comes from four appealing factors; convenience, cost, community and
collaboration. The Philippine co-living market is evident through the presence of dormitels, a combination of a
dorm and hotel services that young professionals consider due to affordability, location, convenience, and safety.
The main drivers that fuel the demand for these concepts are the shifting nature of remote work and demand for
affordable housing.
Ayala Land’s the Flats and Clock In are its two brands to take advantage of this growing trend. There is merit
now to expand these businesses not only because of the demand from users but also the availability of
developable land in the Metro Manila. These factors are forcing real estate developers to be more efficient in its
CAPEX requirement for Strategy 5 which refers to expansion and continued operation is PHP 500 million which
Market Penetration Strategy 6: Invest in New Industrial Warehouses and innovative logistics technology
The end of 2018 saw massive growth in the ecommerce in the Philippines. A report by Statista said that
the Philippine e-commerce market revenue grew to $840 million or about P44 trillion in 2018 from $688 million
or about P36 trillion in 2017. Revenue is expected to grow about 10.5% annually leading to a market volume of
All that activity will greatly affect the Warehousing industry in the Philippines. Colliers reports the demand
for industrial warehouses is partly driven by a thriving e-commerce market. Personal consumption has also been
growing steadily which propels the demand for fast-moving consumer goods. The efficient delivery of goods
ALI currently has 136,874 sqm total GLA for standard factory building and warehousing across multiple
locations.
CAPEX requirement for continued construction and expansion for 2019 is PHP 500 million which is 0.3% of the
Market Penetration Strategy 7: Secure land banking areas surrounding the planned subway station.
There are areas that are directly in the path of the planned MRT-7 and its stations which are located in
Quezon City. There is a total of 13 stations situated all over Quezon City that will have great effect in the
surrounding areas that Ayala Land should secure for land banking.
Colliers sees a spot as ideal for townships. The area around the North Avenue station is prime land for
townships since it’s in the middle of interconnecting mass transportation systems. While the stations in Tandang
Sora will be providing residential support to offices in the North Avenue station.

Colliers also sees North Avenue as a practical choice for hotel projects as it sees it capturing demand
Colliers expects massive redevelopment in the area around Anonas station as a result of the new
developments including improved access to it. The overall effect Colliers is expecting in the rea is the need for
more low to mid-rise residential condominiums and shophouse retail projects and some room for middle- to
upper-middle class condominium projects. The East Avenue station would be a feasible location for more
institutional projects such as schools and hospitals while the Quezon Avenue station should serve as an
extension of commercial activities along North Avenue. Lastly, Colliers doesn’t see much potential for Katipunan
