THE RIGHT COUNTRY

WHY INVEST IN THE PHILIPPINES?
- Strategic Business Location
- Great Tropical Climate
- Growing Tourism Industry (3M/year)
- Easy Communication
- High Literacy Rate (approx 93%)
Philippines is in the heart of the Asia-Pacific Region – one of the fastest growing economic region in the world. Its strategic location near Asias 10 major cities, its English language-proficient workforce, and its young population, with approximately 45% below the age of 20, make it attractive for outsourcing and investments.
Its economy is driven largely by an extensive, first-rate BPO sector; massive worldwide expatriate remittances from its global Filipino workforce, ranked #4 in the world only next to China, India and Mexico; and a dynamic, multifaceted tourism industry.
With close to 100 million people, and being the 12th most populated country in the world, it has remained remarkably resilient, being only one of 3 Asian countries that posted positive GDP growth during the recent downturn of 2009. Its recent economic triumphs have created a burgeoning middle-class that is eager and able to afford new housing, personal amenities, and a better quality of life. This trend is powering the countrys present robust consumer spending and real estate boom. With property prices going at a fraction of their major Asian counterparts, Manila has become a potent base for international business and investment.
Indeed the Philippines highly technologized, future-focused cities, positive economic policies, friendly people, and vibrant city culture make it a viable center for any global business.

THE RIGHT INDUSTRY
As a result of heavy foreign investments, increased labor opportunities and a rapidly expanding middle-class, the demand for affordable-to-high end residential, business and commercial real estate has risen. The relatively low Philippine interest rates and the fact that many Filipinos are first time property buyers make home-buying an attractive prospect for families.
The countrys steady growth in home ownership is further aided by banks reducing their home loan rates, driving further buying opportunities. Per Philippine government statistics, there exists a backlog of 3.6M homes nationwide that the industry is trying to serve.
The market clearly exists; it is simply a matter of meeting the demand.

Century Properties Group, Inc. is uniquely positioned as a developer of best-in-class real estate projects to meet and exceed the needs and aspirations of the global citizen.

Completed Projects by Century Properties

THE PROJECT

Tower of Power: The first Trump-branded Tower in the Philippines, Trump Tower Manila by Century Properties in collaboration with Trump Organization, will have a very elegant and sleek glass curtain wall facade.

Century Properties subsidiary Century City Development Corporation collaborates with the Trump Organization to bring the Philippines the first Trump building called Trump Tower Manila, a 250-unit residential skyscraper that will be one of the countrys tallest buildings.

The tower, licensed to carry the Trump brand, will be located at Century City, a 3.4 hectare development on Kalayaan Avenue, Makati City.

Century Properties managing director and Trump Tower Manila project head Robbie R. Antonio describes the tower as an –ULTRA LUXURY– development, carrying the Trump standard. –Trump Tower Manila will have features patterned after Trump-owned developments in New York. These include a triple-height ceiling for the grand lobby. We have also incorporated into the design. The Trump Plaza and water feature. The other common spaces include a restaurant, a business center and spa center, and pool and sky garden.

Real estate magnate Donald Trump says, The Trump brand stands for the best in everything – location, design, services, amenities and beyond. Trump buildings are always the most architecturally beautiful and are situated in the citys prime location. We also deliver service that exceeds all others. That is what great real estate is all about.

Antonio adds that homeowners of Trump Tower Manila will –experience the trademark New York quality in terms of product and service, which means you are taking into account the crème de la crème of the worlds most influential and competitive projects. That means superior location, impressive amenities, and paramount service. From the magnificent floor-to- ceiling heights, glass walls, five-fixture bathrooms, etc., these are qualities that arent offered in Manila. We will be the first to execute a building of this magnitude into Philippine context.

Antonio executed the licensing deal with Trumps children, Ivanka and Eric, vice president and executive vice president for development and acquisitions at The Trump Organization, respectively.

–Trump Tower Manila is a P6-billion project that will no doubt reinforce Centurys reputation of being a solid, credible and innovative property firm. –It is an honor for us to bring the Trump brand to Manila with this project, which we very much seek to achieve for the purpose of propelling the local landscape into a premier and global destination. Our bottom line as a developer has always been to sizably contribute to the progress of the Philippine real estate industry, and, in turn, provide a platform that benefits our country, says Antonio–

Trump has been in the real estate business for 40 years. In 1971, he renamed his fathers company into The Trump Organization. To this day, he says, –I make sure that all of the details of a project — whether Trump-owned or branded, are executed at the highest level. We represent the gold standard worldwide and we make sure to live up to that reputation. We are not complacent. When you know that your location, design, interiors, amenities and services are the best available, there is no better feeling.

How does Antonio foresee the future of Trump Tower Manila during these challenging economic times?

Manila and Asia are some of the more substantial markets in the world at this time. We would not have launched this project at this juncture if we did not believe in the viability of the local market, he says confidently.

Century Properties other high-end project, Milano, which was interior designed by Versace Home, is approximately 80 percent sold since it was launched on Jan. 28. Obviously, the overall perception of the economy does not encompass everyone. As much as we have expanded into catering to the affordable market, we are also bullish about the business of luxury developments. There are several factors that contribute to the success of the upscale market, but what we have experienced firsthand is that our largest client base for the majority of our developments is Filipino expatriates who generate billions of dollars in revenues and investments for the country. In my opinion, that is what has made the Philippines a profitable arena for high-end projects.

Century Properties sees the target market for Trump Tower Manila as being the –most discerning clientele in the country and the world. These are individuals who are familiar with the Trump Tower lifestyle heralded around the world and would like to experience it on a daily basis. We expect to have local buyers who would be considering this as a full-time residence. Furthermore, we are expecting foreign buyers who will use the unit as their pied a terre and who believe in the units as a solid real estate investment.–
