Your Kitchen Table is Not a Desk.
The pandemic changed real estate forever. “Work From Home” isn’t a trend; it’s a lifestyle. And working from your bed is bad for your back and your career. Buyers are dumping studios and hunting for 2-Bedroom Units.
The Foreclosure Arbitrage
A brand new studio in Makati costs 6M. A foreclosed 2-Bedroom unit in an older Mandaluyong building often costs 5M. The Trade: You trade “Newness” for “Space.”
The Renovation
Take that second bedroom.
- Knock down the closet.
- Install soundproofing.
- Upgrade the internet wiring. You now have a dedicated “Zoom Room.” This separation of work and sleep is the ultimate luxury in 2025.
