 HISTORY

1800's

Ayala Land lives up to a distinguished legacy. With roots tracing back to 1834, Ayala Land's legacy was built on the vision of its founders and through the generations of leaders who recognized unique opportunities for transformation.

 



1940's

Ayala Compania unveils the Ayala Master Plan, a 25-year urban development program for Makati. Forbes Park, the first high-end subdivision of its kind in the century is opened to the public.

 


1950-1960

Ayala Land saw the potential in a large, undeveloped tract of land known as Hacienda Makati.

 



1960-1970

Ayala Land then created a unique, masterplanned development, which has now evolved into the country's premier business and financial district (MAKATI)

 




1980-1990

Recognizing the possibilities in the Visayas and Mindanao regions, Ayala Land, through its subsidiary, Cebu Holdings, transformed a golf course into the first business district in the Southern Philippines, the Cebu Business Park followed by the Asiatown IT Park.

 


1990-2000

Guided by a commitment to pioneer the future, Ayala Land begins to develop large-scale, masterplanned, fully-integrated and sustainable developments.

 


2000's

Ayala Land, together with partner Evergreen Holdings, invested and revitalized Fort Bonifacio, a former military base, creating Bonifacio Global City, with its ideal balance of live, work and play.
Realizing the changing needs of its customers and its responsibility to future generations, Ayala Land turned a sugar plantation into NUVALI, a fully-integrated, mixed-use development, which has become its model for sustainable community development.

ALI to complete Ayala Center facelift by year end


Property giant Ayala Land Inc. (ALI) is set to complete the first phase of the P28.5-billion redevelopment of its crown jewel, the Ayala Center, by December this year, in line with its goal to convert Makati City into a premier regional center in Southeast Asia.


Why should I buy from Ayala Land?
Ayala Land properties and communities are well-planned, well-constructed, and well-maintained. Because of good location, high quality of construction, and long-term commitment to service and maintenance, our properties have enhanced the living experience of our residents. In addition, our properties have typically shown growth in value over time.

What is the difference between Ayala Land Premier, Alveo Land Corp., and Avida?
Ayala Land Premier
developments are the most distinctive and exclusive among all Ayala Land properties. Premium locations, expansive living spaces, luxurious finishes, and first-rate amenities are the trademarks of the Ayala Land Premier living experience.

Alveo Land Corp.
caters to urban high achievers. It fulfills the lifestyle aspirations of this dynamic and fast-rising set by creating vibrant communities that reflect the cosmopolitan tastes and needs of residents. Each development promotes close ties among neighbors in a safe and secure environment.

Avida Land Corp. serves the needs of the hardworking middle class, the engine of our nation's growth. Avida provides homes to be proud of, in a peaceful, safe community that is accessible to public transportation. Avida gives home buyers peace of mind, knowing that the dream home they have worked hard for will be built with Ayala Land's promise of Integrity, Reliability, and Commitment.



Where are the properties located?
Ayala Land properties are located in central business districts like Makati and Bonifacio Global City (Taguig), as well as other Metro Manila locations like Quezon City, Manila, Antipolo, and Paranaque. Properties outside Metro Manila are in selected provinces of Central and Southern Luzon, the Visayas region, and Mindanao.

New areas for expansion are also constantly being added.


Why should I consider buying or investing in a property in the Philippines?
Investing in property or real estate in the long term is a good way of balancing one's portfolio of investments.  A typical investment in property or real estate usually assures the investor of long term capital appreciation.  An additional benefit for an investor is the rental income which can be derived from investments in a house and lot or condominium unit.

At this point, it would do well to remember that a property's rate of appreciation also has a lot to do with the reputation of the developer and the quality of his projects.  The better known and respected the developer, the faster and higher is the appreciation of investments in his projects



What tips can you offer for choosing a good lot, house-and-lot, or condo unit?
Among the factors which you should look for in choosing a lot are the following:  terrain or topography of the particular lot, the views available from the said lot, the proximity of the lot to amenities and parks, the orientation of the lot (e.g. east, corner lot), the availability of trees within the lot itself, and the shape of the lot - which will have an impact on the design of the house.

In choosing the location of a condominium unit, the factors you should consider are the following:  the views available from the said unit, the orientation of the unit (e.g. east, corner), the location of the unit in terms of level (e.g. lower level, penthouse), and the proximity to amenities.

Factors specific to the house or condo unit are the size and number of bedrooms, number of toilets,  the availability of extra spaces such as den, maid's room, storage room, and parking space, and how all of these are laid out in the floor plan.  A well planned unit will provide good circulation, ample space, and good synergy of movement between related areas.

Consider also the quality of the finishes (floor, sanitary wares, ceilings, door and windows) and the provision of add-ons such as cabinets, fixtures, and telecom provision (cable TV, telephone, and DSL).


How quickly can I move into my house?
You can take physical possession of your house, lot, or condominium once the following steps have been completed:
  1. Acceptance Form has been signed (unless the property is otherwise deemed accepted).
  2. All required documents pertinent to the sale of the property (i.e. Contract to Sell, Deed of Sale, corporate papers, etc.) have been signed and submitted.
  3. All amounts due under our Contract, including reimbursement for advance payment of service fees for the utility connections, have been paid.

What are the benefits of leasing my condo unit?
For condo unit owners who do not plan on immediately occupying their properties as they have other residences or are living abroad, having your unit leased may be a good option. Make the most of your investment by making it a source of income.


Do you offer leasing services?
Yes. Condo unit owners of Ayala Land Premier, Alveo and Avida who do not want to go through the hassle of finding a tenant and collecting rent fees can avail of the leasing services of Aplex
(for Ayala Land Premier and Alveo condominium developments) and LSA
(for Avida condominium developments). Aplex and LSA will take care of finding a tenant, collecting fees and other leasing concerns for you.


What documents will prove my ownership when I purchase a property?
Ownership of a subdivision lot is evidenced by a transfer certificate of title (TCT) issued by the Register of Deeds of the relevant city or municipality where the subdivision project is located. Ownership of a condominium unit is evidenced by a condominium certificate of title (CCT) issued by the Register of Deeds of the relevant city or municipality where the condominium project is located.

Ownership of a single-detached house or townhouse constructed on a subdivision lot is evidenced by a Tax Declaration (TD) issued by the City Assessor of the city or municipality where the project is located.  Subdivision lots and condominium units are also covered by a TD.  The TD shows the assessed value of the property which is used as basis for charging the  real property tax (RPT) imposable on the property.

Upon the payment of the relevant taxes and fees to the government units and agencies, and obtaining the necessary clearances to register the property from the BIR and the local government unit concerned, the TCT or CCT shall be transferred from the name of the developer to the buyer by the appropriate Register of Deeds.

The TD covering the lot and/or dwelling unit or condominium unit shall be transferred by the appropriate City Assessor from the developer to the buyer upon submission of the sale documents and the BIR tax clearance authorizing the registration of the property in the name of the buyer.

The TD for a subdivision lot in the name of the buyer is issued after the issuance of the covering TCT. The TD for a dwelling unit, whether a single-detached house, townhouse, or a condominium unit, is issued only after the local government unit has issued an occupancy permit which allows the occupancy of the same by the owner of the unit.



What is a Contract to Sell, Deed of Sale, Transfer Certificate of Title (TCT), Condominium Certificate of Title (CCT), and Tax Declaration (Tax Dec)?
A Contract to sell or CTS is a document where developer promises to transfer to the buyer the ownership and physical possession of the property upon the buyer's fulfillment of the terms of the sale, and the buyer obliges himself to pay the purchase price and comply with the other terms and conditions of the sale.  Once the property is paid in full, a Deed of Sale (DOS) is executed by the developer and buyer.

A Deed of Sale or DOS is a document executed when buyer pay the developer in cash (whether  using his or her own funds or through funds barrowed from bank or financing institutions). In the DOS, the developer transfer ownership of the property to the buyer, subject to the compliance by the buyer with the Deed of Restrictions or Master Deed with Declaration of Restrictions governing the project and the other terms and conditions of the sale.

A Transfer of Certificate of Title (TCT) is a proof of ownership of a subdivision  lot issued by the Register of Deeds of the relevant city or municipality where the subdivision project is located.

A Condominium Certificate of Title is proof of ownership of a condominium unit issued by the Register of Deeds of the relevant city or municipality where the condominium project is located.



What are the applicable taxes and fees when I purchase a property?
0The typical taxes/transaction cost in the sale of real property from the developer to a buyer are the following:

Income/Creditable Withholding Tax

The developer is subject to a 30% income tax payable to the Philippine Bureau of Internal Revenue (BIR) on income derived from the sale of property.  As a general rule, the buyer is required to withhold 5% of the purchase price, zonal value or TD value of the property, whichever is higher, to be credited to the income tax of the developer.  The developer may cause such withholding to be made on behalf of the buyer and remitted to the BIR.

Value-added Tax

Value-added tax at the rate of 12% of purchase price, zonal value or TD value of the property, whichever is higher, is payable on each sale of real property to the BIR.

Documentary Stamp Tax

Documentary stamp tax at the rate of 1.5% of the purchase price, zonal value, or TD value of the property, whichever is higher, is payable on the execution of the DOS to the BIR.

Local Transfer Tax

Local transfer tax is imposed by the local government unit where the property is located generally at the rate of 50% of 1% of the purchase price, zonal value, or TD value of the property, whichever is higher.

Registration fees are payable to the Register of Deeds where the property is located at the rate of P8,796.00 for the first P1.7million plus P90.00 for every P20, 000.00 or fraction thereof in excess of P1.7 million.
