Capitalizing on the growing opportunities in the ultra high-end market, property giant Megaworld is introducing a new brand category that caters to the ‘ultra rich’, both in the Philippines and abroad.
This year, the company launches the Megaworld Signature Collection, a curated portfolio of ultra high-end residences, which marks the company’s strategic entry into the most elevated tier of residential real estate where ownership is defined by privacy, permanence, and provenance.
Unlike Megaworld’s previous upscale offerings, this new category features one-of-one residences: either individually designed developments located in scarce, trophy enclaves across the Philippines, or select residences that uniquely showcase first-of-its-kind innovations, amenities, or even collaborations and partnerships.
“The Megaworld Signature Collection is beyond what we’ve done before—it defines an entirely new category. We recognize the need for us to diversify our portfolio and boldly tap into the opportunities in the ultra-luxury residential market,” Kevin Tan, executive director of Megaworld, said in a statement.
“These developments are so rare that Megaworld plans to offer these only in select locations, just once or twice every year,” Tan added.
Serving the Evolving UHNW Market
The launch comes amid growing demand for exclusive, long-hold real estate among Ultra High Net Worth Individuals (UHNWIs) in the Philippines and overseas.
As personal and generational wealth expands, so too does the appetite for quiet luxury, discreet ownership, and non-fungible real estate assets.
According to US-based global financial analytics firm S&P Global, the ultra-luxury real estate market in the Philippines is currently experiencing increased growth and huge demand, driven largely by buyers’ resilience against inflation and high-interest rates.
Megaworld’s entry into this space builds on over 30 years of experience in high-value residential development—now refined for the most discerning clientele.
The Megaworld Signature Collection signals a deliberate pivot toward architectural singularity, long-term capital preservation, and heirloom-quality design.
“We chose the name because each residence bears the mark of purposeful design. Every development is envisioned as a one-of-a-kind property and offered with discretion—chosen by those who truly understand the value of rarity,” Lourdes Gutierrez-Alfonso, president and chief executive officer of Megaworld, said.
“We are creating an entirely brand-new group to handle our Megaworld Signature Collection. We will be launching our inaugural project for this category within the year,” she added.
In 2024, real estate sales continued to be a key driver of growth for Megaworld as it recorded a 19 percent jump year-on-year with its revenues reaching nearly P51-billion.
The company also recorded P131.9-billion in reservation sales, and launched P31.8-billion worth of new projects during the year. ||
