Care to expound on why you say Avida isnt okay? If you talk construction, all work of Ayala is already done by MDC so cost differences between companies would be a flip between density, finishing materials, amenities and cost of land among some. Id liken jumping fom Avida to Alveo like switching from a mid range Vios to an Altis.
hindi ba nakakatakot tumira sa condo
kapag nagkalindol ng malakas tulad sa bohol?
I No doubt naman sa construction ng ayala. Pero kung makikita mo yung avida sucat (in front of sm sucat) parang pinagkakasya nilang gumawa as much as building na magagawa nila sa maliit na lot area nila. Compress na compress yung mga building at ang liit lang ng clubhouse saka pool nila. Kaya parang naging 95% buildings 5% amenities![]()
Pero if your not into space or amenities ok lang. Para sakin parang di ka na makahinga sa sikip. Just saying.

First 5 years of a condo life's is its peak. You get excited new owners moving in. You get good rental rates or even tenants until another new tower across begins its turnover or elsewhere. More worrying for buyers is to imagine in a few years down the line how will their condo coexist when newer or more modern towers rise in a hip new area elsewhere.
If you were to judge the Ayala project, The Columns, which is across RCBC Plaza in Makati, I don't think anyone would think so highly of Ayala afterwards. But still Ayala is better than the others like SM and et al. Back to The Columns. Anyone see it today? Its façade badly needs a repaint.
Ganyan nga napansin ko sa mga condo after 5 years mukha na ng tenement. Dipende din kasi sa namamahala ng home owners association. Yung iba maganda padin kahit luma na pero karamihan nagmumuka ng tenement. Kinukurkot na lang kc ng presidente ng Association yung mga condo dues. :o

On the topic of avida, yes I agree Alveo is better than Avida, it should, Alveo is a notch higher than Avida and it's more expensive. But Avida vs other developers in the same price range like SM...C'mon man. Kung siksikan din lang ang labanan, Avida vs SM. Ilan ang average unit per floor ng SM vs Avida?
Kaya importante yung lokasyon. I recommend getting condos only in CBDs if for investment ang pakay ng buyer, kumpleto na kasi aside from shelling out your money on the unit itself, parang kasama na rin sa bayad yung immediate area and what comes with it like malls, offices, amenities schools etc. Mas matao, mas traffic mas ok, ibig sabihin buhay na buhay ang paligid, mas maraming gusto umupa na dun din sa area nagtatrabaho o malapit ang school.
And no other developer can do CBDs here in Pinas like the Ayalas.
Shouldn't be a problem as long as they built it structurally well (foundation, beams, etc.)

Always understand that there's a lot of categories in real estate. You might think that Ayala, SMDC, DMCI, Century are all competitors but they're really not. Each of them fills a certain need of the market. Well, except for Ayala which covers pretty much all of the categories (with Amaia being their 20% social housing requirement filler).
Actually the reason behind the not so spectacular amenities of Avida is this..Avida's target market is the not so affluent, the middle class, ordinary guys ika nga. Now expansive amenities like olympic size pools and bad ass gyms and sprawling gardens are expensive to maintain. So pano na ang monthly dues ni middle class pag turnover. Binagay lang niya yung potential na kakailanganin ng kanyang market at kakayanang mag maintain sa mga nilagay niyang amenities para di naman kawawa yung buyer. At kawawa rin ang project pag sobrang garbo ng amenites pero pahirapan naman maningil ng mataas na monthly dues, ang mangyayari niyan baka mapabayaan ang magagandang amenties, papangit din.
Ayala Land Premiere-High end
Alveo Land- upper middle
Avida-middle
Amaia-lower middle

I think wala sa mura o mahal na singil sa dues para ma maintain ang amenities kundi nasa namamahala. Once kc na turn over na ng developer yung project sa home owners dun na napapabayaan gawa ng kinukurakot lang yung dues. I think millions every month ang nakukurakot ng presidente ng Association lalo na kung malaki yung project

Paano ba ung proseso ng home owners? wala bang liquidation kung saan napupunta ang association dues? sa sea and grass residences tumaas na asso. dues nasa Php95/sqm na. Ano rate ng association dues sa avida and alveo? I think much lower than that.
