| Ohmyhome’s ‘Buying From Overseas’ Page Allows Purchase of Property in the Philippines from Anywhere |
All these problems are now tackled by industry game-changer Ohmyhome’s newly launched ‘Buying from Overseas’ website, which is directly primed to help consumers abroad start their buying journey. The new service would definitely make the home buying process straightforward and quick for OFWs who want to purchase properties in the Philippines while encouraging overseas property investors to pursue opportunities.
According to Ohmyhome, users merely need to visit the Buying from Overseas page on its website and chat with one of Ohmyhome’s agents to begin their housing journey. Interested homebuyers or developers would then be led through all the stages of the process.
The Buying from Overseas page comes when data from Ohmyhome research reveal that Filipinos located abroad are taking a closer look at cross-border investment. This could be spurred by the government’s heightened confidence in the country’s economic recovery. For one, in a media conference in December 2020, Finance Secretary Carlos Dominguez III and his economic team expected a GDP (gross domestic product) increase of 6.5 percent to 7.5 percent in 2021.
According to the World Bank Group, the Philippines are likewise included among the forty-two most improving economies in 2018 and 2019.
Also, in 2020, net equity capital investments rose by 32.9 percent to US$107 million from US$81 million in 2019, with the majority of the equity capital placements spent primarily in real estate, manufacturing, banking, and science and technology industries.
Finally, the Department of Trade and Industry promotes spending in the thriving field of information technology and business process management (IT-BPM), which fuels office leasing and corporate housing.
Ohmyhome is also hopeful that with a bright forecast for the Philippine economy in 2021 and encouraging input from international and real estate transactions in the past year, prospective property buyers abroad can take advantage of the current economic environment and plan to invest in Philippine real estate now. Providentially, Ohmyhome’s Buying From Overseas page would make the process easier and more effective.
Among the first who are set to reap from this service are OFWs who have long yearned to buy a home in their country as they toil in Dubai, Doha, Abu Dhabi, Riyadh, Canada, Australia, Singapore, and Japan. These OFWs and owners can now look forward to the amazingly efficient home buying experience that awaits them.
