Saturday, December 16, 2006 Sibulan to open new housing project By Rachelle M. Nessia
ESTANZIA South Housing Project, another housing project of Firm Builders Realty Development Corp., is set to open its doors in Barangay Maslog, Sibulan, Negros Oriental.
Aleli Villacorte, project manager, said the land development and selling of the house and lot units are now ongoing.
The official launching of the project and site blessing is slated on February 2, 2007.
Villacorte said 419 units will be constructed. Potential homeowners can choose from two types of house models, namely the Rowhouse Core Type (lot area of 50 sq.m., floor area 32.4 sq.m.) and the Single Attached Complete Type (lot area 70 sq.m., floor area 32.4 sq.m.).
Estanzia South is about 300 meters off the National Highway and is linked by an existing barangay road, of which a portion of the road will be widened to 10 meters by the developer, said Concepcion Rosales, Sibulan Information Officer.
Some of the project's amenities include a water treatment facility, basketball court and open spaces for a park and playground.
Villacorte said their primary market targets Pag-ibig Fund members, government employees, teachers and businessmen who will qualify for housing loans under the Pag-ibig housing loan program.
Pag-ibig has recently announced that it has cut the interest rates on its housing loans packages to as low as 6% to low-income members for the second time this year.
