TheOriana
Fifty-four storeys beside LRT-2. Studio to 2BR, ₱4.71M – ₱9.62M — and the keys are ready now.
An address that is already finished.
No turnover date to wait out and no artist's impression to trust. The North Tower is standing, the amenities are open, and the unit you walk through is the unit you buy.
Ten addresses I sell, inspect and stand behind.
An index, not a brochure. Prices are developer-published and confirmed at reservation — I will walk you through every line before you sign anything.

The developer builds it. That is the whole difference.
DMCI Homes is the only major Philippine developer with its own in-house construction arm — which is why turnover dates tend to hold.
25+ years of pedigree
More than 150 residential projects delivered since 1999, by the country's most established engineering-led developer.
Resort living as standard
Sky decks, lap pools, landscaped atriums and fitness clubs come with the community — not as a premium upsell.
Returns that read well later
Transit-oriented, land-banked addresses near BGC, Makati, Ortigas and NAIA hold value and rent reliably through cycles.
Built for buying from abroad
Virtual viewings, online document processing, and someone who answers across time zones. Reserve from anywhere.

Sales Manager, DMCI Homes · Since December 2007
"I would rather you buy the right unit next year than the wrong one this week."
I joined DMCI Homes as a Sales Manager in December 2007, and I am still a Sales Manager here today — eighteen years with one developer, building and leading a team through every market since. That covers the crash that arrived months after I started, the pre-selling boom that followed it, the pandemic, and the oversupply headlines of the past two years. Each cycle taught the same lesson: the buyers who came out ahead were the ones who were told the truth about the unit, the terms and the timing — even when the truth was wait.
Managing a team changes what a buyer actually gets. You are not handed to whoever is free. I sit in on the shortlisting and the computation myself, and the team behind me means your reservation, your the bank paperwork and your turnover keep moving while I am with someone else. Nothing in your file waits on one person's schedule.
Eighteen years also buys you information that is not on any brochure: which towers are genuinely releasing units this month, when a sold-out line quietly reopens, which financing route clears fastest for your income documents, and what the real move-in cost is after the downpayment. That is the part I was hired to know, and it is the part I give you first.
I work the full DMCI Homes portfolio across Metro Manila, Cebu and Baguio, for buyers here and overseas. You pay the exact developer-published price. My commission comes from DMCI Homes, never from you.

What buyers ask first.
Do I pay you anything?
No. As a DMCI Homes accredited agent my commission is paid by the developer, so you buy at the exact developer-published price with zero agent fee.
Is The Oriana really ready for occupancy?
The 54-storey North Tower is ready for occupancy — you can view an actual unit, not a showroom, and move in once the paperwork clears. The South Tower is still under construction.
What is the minimum downpayment?
Select projects currently run at 12% downpayment payable over 32 months. Standard terms are 15–30% depending on the project and unit.
How does rent-to-own work?
Under DMCI Homes' Home Advance programme you move into your purchased unit and lease it while you finish paying, instead of waiting for full bank financing. You pre-qualify by completing four months of downpayment. Move-in costs and qualifying communities vary by promo period — ask me for the current memo.
Can I buy from overseas?
Yes. Virtual viewings, online document processing and digital signing mean the whole reservation can be handled remotely. Many of my buyers reserve without flying home.
Tell me the budget. I will send the shortlist.
No brochure dump. Three or four units that actually fit, each with the real computation attached — and a plain note on which one I would take.
