REAL-ESTATE industry stakeholders in the region will get to benchmark best practices and share their experiences and insights on the latest trends and developments in the global real-estate industry at the first Real Estate Asia Pacific (REAP) 2017 Conference and Expo set on May 12 and 13 at the SMX Convention Center in Pasay City.
With the theme “Asean Real Estate Development and Practices Beyond Borders,” REAP 2017 is a professional real-estate summit in the global context and Asean integration with an international set of speakers and highly respected real-estate officials in the Philippines. It is considered as the biggest, grandest and most anticipated real-estate industry event in Asia-Pacific region.
Philippine Regulation Commission for Real Estate Service Chairman Dr. Eduardo G. Ong said the lineup of distinguished foreign speakers and panelists makes REAP 2017 a compelling event for players in the real-estate and allied industries.
“The real-estate industry has come of age. We can see development and infrastructure rising not only in the urban cities, but, likewise, in the suburban communities and in the entire Philippine archipelago. Many of the top billionaires in the country have one thing in common; they are engaged in real-estate development,” said Ong, acknowledged as the “Father of Real Estate”.
“The country’s biggest developers need the services of credible and reliable real-estate service professionals, brokers, appraisers, consultants and salesperson. They are indispensable partners to the real-estate development and growth. Undoubtedly, the real-estate industry is booming and sparkling for the years to come, especially in the advent of the Asean Economic Integration, where Asean will become a borderless economy,” he said.
