PHILIPPINE PERSPECTIVE ON HOUSING
44 | P a g e
-CURRENT HOUSING NEEDS, DEMAND AND SUPPLY

HOUSING

The Philippine housing industry believes that every Filipino family has the right to live with
dignity in the comfort of one’s own home regardless of economic status.

It aims to eliminate thehousing backlog by the year 2030.The Philippine housing sector has
enormous potential for growth, as demand for living spacescontinue to increase. Through
several industry-led initiatives, the sector hopes to sustain itsrobust growth and development
– at affordable prices for the Filipino household.

Towards this vision, the industry's objectives are:

1. Increase housing production capacity to sustain 12% annual volume growth

2. Implement a comprehensive government housing subsidy for targeted segments
3. Improve the regulatory environment for housing
4. Generate and mobilize funds for end-user financing

ABOUT HOUSING
The housing backlog is 3.9 million households. Assuming that production of housing units
wouldaverage 200,000 units every year from 2012 to 2030, the backlog would still persist and
hit 6.5million households by 2030.

The highest demand would come from the economic housingsegment, followed by socialized
housing, and lastly by low-cost housing.

The low-cost, socialized, and economic housing units account for a large share of
housingproduction. From 2010 to 2011, housing production in the high-end, mid-end, and low-
costcategories increased, while production of houses in economic and socialized housing
wasrelatively flat. From 2000 to 2011, economic, socialized, and low-cost housing cornered
close to70% of total housing production.

During this same period, the socialized segment accounted for27%, the economic segment
accounted for 29%, and low cost segment 13%.

As of 2011, there are 3,164 players in the housing industry. Despite the huge number of firms
engaged in housing, only a few firms dominate the industry.
Most of these firms are highly integrated developers that are engaged in various real estate
developments besides housing. Many other firms are into retail real estate, hotels, commercial
office buildings, and industrialestate development.

The Subdivision and Housing Developers’ Association (SHDA) is the largest organization of
housing developers in the Philippines, counting 160 members from its chapters in Luzon,
Visayas, and Mindanao.

Other industry participants are members of the Chamber of Real Estate and Builders’
Associations (CREBA), the Real Estate Brokers Association of the Philippines, Inc. (REBAP),
45 | P a g e
the Philippine Association of Real Estate Brokers (PAREB), the National Real Estate
Association of the Philippines (NREA), and the the Organization of Socialized Housing
Developers of the Philippines (OSHDP).
