How the Pandemic Changed Consumer Preferences in Real Estate Investments

By: Kathren Kelly



As the pandemic continues, the perspective of people about certain things in life also continues to change as well. The list includes their big plans about the future. Experts estimate the pandemic to last for two years but even this remains as a mere speculation. Indeed, our lives are changed forever. Since the lockdown imposed social distancing, people took a closer look on where they live. “Am I safe here?”





It is undeniable that “space” plays a big role in our lives right now. The new generation of investors are now highly considering the impact of their investment choice in real estate. In relation to this, the choice between purchasing a condominium vs a house and lot property is also something that came up. Undeniably, in a setting where you prefer to lessen contact and have a space of your own, a house and lot investment is the obvious choice. A house and lot property provides more safety and security for families. With jobs transitioning to work from home setups, spacious and peaceful homes are also becoming a need and not a mere choice. Online classes are also the new educational norm and students are expected to learn in the comfort of their own homes. With all these lifestyle changes, more and more investors are highly considering the option of purchasing a house and lot property that will give them the space they need.


In the Philippines, the government is highly pushing for the redevelopment of rural areas through the provision of jobs and opportunities that can come close to what the cities offer. Because of this, seeking a forever home in the provinces is now a big consideration for future homeowners. Away from the congested and crowded cities, the provinces provide the joy of humble living - quiet and peaceful, close to nature away from pollution and the noise of the city. Considering the effects of the pandemic to our daily lives, it is the ideal setup for people despite where they are in life. The good thing is, there are many developers that have long established their brand and turf in the provinces. It is not hard to find a reputable developer even in the rural areas.

A pandemic may seem like a giant stop sign for everything. However, it is not a bad time to realign your needs and think about what is best for you and your family in the near future. Seeing real estate as it is: a future home, your own dwelling and the place you can confidently call your own changes the fear that surrounds its acquisition.
