With its proximity to overcrowded Metro Manila, Cavite has been the next ideal location for various real estate developers and home seekers alike. Today, we can say that the province has become the hottest real estate destination south of Metro Manila. With its appealing profile, Cavite is set to offer more mixed-used developments in the coming years.

Why invest in Cavite?

There are numerous infrastructure projects on-going and some of these are for completion already: LRT-1 South Extension, Sangley Point International Airport (SPIA), Cavite-Tagaytay-Batangas Expressway (CTBEx), to name a few. Realizing all these will make Cavite’s accessibility easier so investors are considering the province for its great opportunity for business. Even within the province, road projects are given priority. The construction of the Malabon Grande-San Juan-Mulawin Diversion Road which connects the town of Tanza to General Trias City is one of these.

While all these developments are happening side by side, home buyers looking for a house in Cavite can still find a good deal since real estate prices in Cavite are still significantly lower than other parts of Metro Manila. The diverse industries such as manufacturing, agriculture, and tourism are thriving economic activities.

Going home to Cavite

25 years ago, Property Company of Friends, Inc. (Profriends) saw Cavite’s potential and has since invested in the province. With the Filipino family deserving of a house which they can call their own in mind, this inspiration was carried out by Profriends to continue serving the Filipino families. Its projects, from pocket developments to estates, grew into townships and shifted its focus to more meaningful property development--- community living. This unique quality, where families in the community is top of mind, more makes a house a home.

Changing the Cavite landscape

Today, the community life which is practiced in the established horizontal developments of Profriends, becomes a manifestation of higher things to come. As Cavite progresses even more with its bustling developments in various aspects, Profriends began introducing its first vertical projects which will offer the same community living that it is offering its house and lot homeowners. The community camaraderie, the spacious residential spaces, the nature-rich open spaces--- these are the qualities that can be seen in Westwind at Lancaster New City, Merrydale Homes – St. Joseph, and soon to rise condominium projects in other areas of Cavite. Soon, more Caviteños will enjoy living in the progressive province with a booming economy, diversified population, and community features that continue to keep the family at its core.

The first-ever low-rise condominium inside Lancaster New City, Westwind, breaks ground to gear up for construction. The mixed-use development is set to promote connected, healthy, and convenient living inside a sustainable community. In his speech, Business Unit Head Eric Ganaden outlined the vision for the 13-hectare project: “Years from now, we will transform these perspectives and renders into actual buildings and amenities.” Westwind at Lancaster New City features 4-storey buildings with flexible units. A common outdoor lifestyle spaces connect the residents in these units within walkable distances.

Offering the essentials

“Years from now, we will transform the idle property into a sprawling yet thriving community with all the essentials to support it and add-ons to flourish it,” said Ganaden. The essentials include its own clubhouse, parking building, swimming pools, kiddie playground, multipurpose court, and a retail row. Other than these homeowners’ needs, Westwind at Lancaster New City will change the landscape of condominium living by having outdoor lifestyle open spaces like exercise grounds, outdoor workspace, pet-friendly spaces, al fresco dining, dedicated bicycle lanes and jogging paths. Its location inside Lancaster New City enables our residents to also enjoy the proximity to St. Edward School (K-12), Parish of the Holy Family, The Square Community Mall, Suntech i-Park, and Lancaster grounds.
