IN the Philippines, there is a rapidly increasing demand for residential areas that tout high growth potential. Home and property investment seekers are realizing the latent values and are now casting a wider net around the fringes of big cities such as the suburbs or farther out in the provinces.

Foremost housing developer Bria Homes is, of course, well aware of this. It has, to date, launched more than 50 projects nationwide, mainly residential enclaves in locations that strategically stand out for their proximity to key lifestyle hubs and are poised to benefit from the government's infrastructure boom.
