Searching for a new place to live or invest is no doubt a challenging experience to go through. Exploring different locations and properties is crucial to finding the perfect fit for you and your family. On top of that, many factors also significantly influence the decision-making process for this huge move or investment.
While some prefer living within the capital cities, others fall in love with the calm surroundings of provinces like Lipa, Batangas. Who wouldn’t when it boasts beautiful green sceneries, rich history, culture and traditions, and thriving economic activities!
No matter your situation–a growing family, a budding career, capping your OFW years, or as a first-time investor, it’s best to remain well-informed about the details you might overlook when looking for a house and lot in the south. Keep reading so you don’t miss out!
- Property Location
The most important of all is, of course, the house and lot location. Accessibility to key establishments, such as hospitals, schools, business districts, and commercial centers, is a good sign of a promising environment and extremely beneficial, especially if you have children.
Due to its rapid urbanization, Lipa City offers easy access to the following landmarks: Lipa Medix Medical Center, De La Salle Lipa, SM City Lipa, The Farm at San Benito, and more.
Also check the roadmap in your preferred area for maximum convenience. Being near extensive road networks shortens distances of places by reducing travel time via public or private transportation. With Metro Manila just 78 kilometers away from Batangas, imagine how quickly you can travel to and from the city using the Southern Tagalog Arterial Road (STAR Tollway) and the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX)!
- Residential Area
Once you have chosen a locality, explore the neighborhood you will immerse yourself in to narrow down your options. Give them a site visit to gauge the vibe and physically inspect the residential buildings.

The house and lots for sale are usually situated within gated communities, like R Land Development Inc.’s Arcoe Residences. The community provides many amenities for residents to enjoy, such as an exclusive Clubhouse, Glamping Hub, Jogging Trail, and Sports Camp. Plus, there's even blue and green spaces to relax in and bond with your family and neighbors!
These homes offer a living experience that ensures comfort, relaxation, and safety—a true epitome of quality of life.
- Price of Property
Purchasing a house within your financial reach means setting a realistic budget to assess which property you can afford while still meeting other housing costs, such as maintenance, property taxes, and insurance. By doing so, you can ensure that you're making a sound investment that won't strain your funds in the long run.
You should aim for an affordable house and lot that allows you to have extra money for leisure expenses. The solution to achieving this is by investing in pre-selling properties like those in Arcoe Residences. They have a lot of long-term benefits, especially potential property appreciation.
As part of the country’s list of next wave cities, Lipa prides itself on its burgeoning growth in various industries. Economic development has a big impact on investment opportunities and increased property values. If you are considering renting or selling your house and lot in the future, you can expect a significant return on your investment due to the surging market prices.
- Real Estate Developer
Other than the house and lot, invest some time in doing a thorough background check on your property developer. Putting your trust in a company that will manage the lengthy process of building your ideal home is also a form of investment. You will be pouring time, energy, and effort into coordinating with them until construction is complete and ready for turnover.
Research on their track record. Were they able to finish real estate projects in time and within budget? How were issues resolved during their development phase? Look into reviews made by previous clients as well. How was the experience of former residents in their communities? Were they satisfied with the overall result of their home?
These insights are invaluable for making informed decisions on property investments.
