DMCI Homes Inc. has earmarked P16 billion in capital expenditures to launch four residential developments in 2026, as the company anticipates improved market conditions amid easing interest rates.
“With interest rates expected to ease, we anticipate a healthier environment for homebuyers and a gradual recovery in the housing market,” said Alfredo Austria, president of DMCI Homes. “We will continue offering value-for-money homes with practical financing options, while rolling out new projects at a pace that reflects both opportunity and prudence.”
Subject to market conditions, the company plans to launch a mix of premium, leisure and mid-market developments. These include One South Drive, a luxury residential project in central Baguio City, and Moriyama Nature Park, a Japanese-inspired leisure community in Calamba, Laguna.
Austria said the company also plans to develop high-rise projects in Quezon City and the Acacia area of Taguig City. These projects are expected to generate P16 billion in revenue.
Austria noted that while demand remains, potential homebuyers have been delaying purchases due to market conditions. However, with an improving economic outlook, he expects sales to pick up.
DMCI Homes said the bulk of its 2026 capital spending will be allocated to the construction of 13 ongoing developments and preparations for upcoming launches. The remaining portion of the budget will be used for land acquisition and equipment purchases.
The company also reported strong growth in its rent-to-own program, with total property value reaching a record P14.5 billion in 2025, nearly double the P7.3 billion recorded in 2024.
DMCI Homes said continued demand for flexible ownership options has supported its strategy of offering accessible housing solutions while maintaining disciplined project expansion.
