Rockwell Land President Nestor J.
Padilla told reporters it is launching the fifth and final tower of the
Proscenium, a mixed-use project rising on a 3.6-hectare lot owned previously by
Colgate-Palmolive Philippines, in September this year.
The luxury building will generate
P10.5 billion in revenues from the sale of 563 units at an average price of
P200,000 per square meter.
So far, the first three towers at
Proscenium -- Kirov, Sakura, and Lincoln -- are 76% sold as of last month.
Lorraine, the fourth tower, is offering 177 units in the market.
Likewise, Rockwell Land is rolling out
two new projects in Pasig and Muntinlupa cities that will add 230,000 square
meters of gross floor area to its portfolio, equivalent to five to seven years
of inventory.
They will be introduced under Rockwell
Primaries, the listed firm’s subsidiary catering to the broader segment of the
market, with combined revenues pegged at P12 billion.
The Pasig project -- called The
Vantage at Kapitolyo -- will be Rockwell Primaries’ first high-rise project on
a half-a-hectare lot in Barangay Kapitolyo.
The property developer will also turn
the 6.5-hectare premium property in Sucat into an exclusive condominium village
touted to be Rockwell Primaries’ biggest project to date.
Rockwell Land has earmarked P13
billion this year to finance the development of its residential and commercial
projects.
The Lopez-led real estate company is
doubling its office and retail space in the next five years to 200,000 square
meters to increase its recurring income stream.
Rockwell Land is considering raising
public ownership in the company from the current 12%-13% to boost liquidity
that will allow the market to price its shares correctly, but a definite
timetable was not provided.
