What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

S&P Global Ratings reported that condominium inventories in Metro Manila remain elevated, totaling approximately 80,000 units, including nearly 30,000 ready-for-occupancy units. The agency also noted that residential pre-sales among four major Philippine developers declined by 7% year-on-year in the first half of 2026, driven by inflation and high borrowing costs.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The property sector is expected to face continued pressure this year and next, with S&P Global Ratings suggesting a meaningful recovery in the Philippine residential property market may not occur until the latter part of 2027. Developers are responding to market weakness by reducing new project launches and prioritizing the sale of existing inventory.
