Lamudi’s The Outlook 2024: Philippine Real Estate Awards recognized the country’s leading developers and key players last Nov. 21, 2024. The property platform presented 19 awards during the gala night at Shangri-La The Fort, Manila, acknowledging exceptional achievement across the industry. It also introduced new award titles that cater to the country’s reputation as a top luxury property market.

“As I look around this room, I see leaders who have shaped the skylines of our cities — leaders who have contributed to the growth of our economy and leaders who have built opportunities for families to live in their dream homes,” Michael Raquiza, Chief Executive Officer of Lamudi Philippines, welcomed the brightest minds, boldest visionaries, and most dedicated real estate professionals in the Philippines.

“The real estate market, like any other sector, is not immune to change,” he added. “Economic shifts, evolving consumer behaviors, and tech advancements require us all to remain agile, innovative, and collaborative. And that’s why events like tonight are so important. They allow us to come together, share insights, and build the partnerships necessary to shape the future of our industry.”

“From developers to financial institutions, and from policy makers to brokers, you all have played a pivotal role in driving the industry forward,” stated Lamudi CEO Michael Raquiza during The Outlook 2024: Philippine Real Estate Awards.

Apart from citations for the best houses and condominium developments across the country, Lamudi recognized the developers and projects that are building the future of real estate, one innovative and sustainable solution at a time. The Outlook 2024 acknowledged developers who are catering to market demand across different segments in established locations and emerging hotspots nationwide.
