The Rizal de Manila Development is a once‑in‑a‑generation land banking and site‑improvement opportunity located in eastern Metro Manila. The project sponsor is in possession of the certified (and verified) titles for the property which is located directly along Laguna de Bay, bounded on the west by the Pasig River, and bisected by the C‑6 roadway, one of Metro Manila’s most important emerging transport corridors.
Sitting only 5km from the Philippines’ premier central business district Bonifacio Global City, the investment strategy is to unlock substantial value through infrastructure‑led site improvement— including internal road networks, water, power, drainage, and utilities— followed by the sale of improved parcels to large, well‑capitalized Philippine developers for residential, retail, and mixed‑use commercial development. Based on recent transactions and market benchmarks, the property is expected to appreciate by 5.0–10.0x in market value following infrastructure delivery.
