It’s a big win for developers from all over the country as renowned real estate names from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao took home the most-sought-after awards from The Outlook: Philippine Buyers’ Choice Property Awards last November 14 at the Makati Shangri-La. The annual event gathered some of the biggest real estate developers in the Philippines along with boutique developers from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao to celebrate the developments that shaped Philippine real estate this year.

The Outlook Awards, co-presented by Philippine Daily Inquirer Property and Holcim, used a two-step process to determine the winners for the House, Condominium, and Mixed-use categories: an esteemed panel of judges shortlisted the nominees for each category, and a 10,000-respondent survey revealed the big winner for each award.

For the Special Awards, the judges took to a pre-determined scorecard to choose the big winners of the night. Lamudi chose the Personality of the Year based on his contributions to the real estate industry.
