October has been one of our busiest month for the past three years. From a steady stream of rental inquiries to successful closings and new listings, it was a rewarding month for our team.
Many renters who reached out were hoping to ease the stress of their daily routines by finding a home closer to work. We also noticed prospects becoming more selective, carefully weighing location, affordability, and comfort before making a decision.
As we welcome November, here’s a look at our latest rental availability, recent closings, and a few personal celebrations.

Our representatives actively market these properties to the hundreds of leads we receive, so this list can change quickly. If a particular unit catches your eye, please inquire about its current availability, rental terms, and viewing schedule.
What Makati Renters Are Looking For
Among our Makati prospects, Salcedo Village and Legazpi Village remained popular choices, particularly for those whose offices are nearby. For these renters, being closer to work was an important consideration when comparing options in Bel-Air, San Lorenzo Village, and San Antonio Village.
The recurring question was simple: how much is a shorter commute worth?
Some renters prioritized proximity, while others were comfortable living farther from the office to find a home that better matched their budget and space requirements. Our October conversations were a reminder that the right rental depends on each tenant’s priorities.
October’s Successful Closings
We’re grateful to the tenants and property owners who trusted us throughout the month. Here are a few highlights from our October closings.
A Two-Bedroom Home in the San Lorenzo Village Area
Successfully closed: a two-bedroom property in the San Lorenzo Village area.
Finding the Right Fit in San Antonio Village
Not every tenant needs to live right next to the office. Some of our clients took a practical approach, choosing a location farther from work because it better suited their overall needs.
With concerns about heavier traffic heading into November, the balance between commuting convenience and rental value remained an important part of those conversations.
Another successful closing in San Antonio Village.
Successfully closed: a one-bedroom condominium in San Antonio Village.
New Listings to Welcome November
October also brought fresh opportunities through our landlord partners. We added several promising rental options to our portfolio, including:
- Studio and one-bedroom units in the Mall of Asia area
- A studio unit in Makati
- A rare two-bedroom unit in Ortigas Center
We’re excited to connect these properties with tenants looking for their next home. Please contact our team for current availability and property details.
A Birthday, a Cake, and a Grateful Heart
October is also my birth month. As usual, I kept the celebration simple… a charot cake ( as I call it. ) to satisfy my sweet tooth and a moment to thank God for another year.

More than anything, I’m grateful for another year of adventures, challenges, and opportunities to grow.
Celebrating Leon’s Engagement
Another happy moment this month was my good friend Leon’s engagement!
I affectionately call him the “Drama King,” but he’s also my pick for the best Italian chef. Now, if only I could convince him to make pineapple pizza although he remains firmly opposed to giving pineapple a place in Italian cuisine! I guess I have to let him try the Jolli Spaghetti.

Congratulations, Leon, and to the happy couple! Wishing you both a lifetime of love, laughter, and yummy cuban pizzas… with or without pineapple.
Thank you to our tenants, landlords, friends, and partners for being part of a memorable October. We look forward to helping more renters find a place to call home this November.
