Robinsons Land Corporation has joined Pag-IBIG Fund’s growing roster of leading developer partners offering homes priced within Filipino workers’ reach and available for purchase through the Pag-IBIG Housing Loan under President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s Expanded Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino (Expanded 4PH) Program.

Robinsons Land Corporation has joined Pag-IBIG Fund’s growing roster of leading developer partners offering homes priced within Filipino workers’ reach and available for purchase through the Pag-IBIG Housing Loan under President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s Expanded Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino (Expanded 4PH) Program.

DHSUD Secretary and Pag-IBIG Fund Board Chairman Jose Ramon P. Aliling said the growing participation of leading developers shows how the President’s housing directive is translating into more opportunities for Filipino families.

“President Marcos has directed us to do all that is necessary to bring homeownership within reach of more Filipino families under Expanded 4PH. We are seeing this direction bear fruit as more leading developers join our efforts, giving Filipino workers more homes to choose from and more opportunities to find one they can afford,” Aliling said.

“Robinsons Land’s participation builds on these gains and strengthens our resolve to sustain them. Together, government and our private-sector partners are turning our shared commitment into concrete opportunities for more Filipinos to own a home,” he added.

In June this year, Pag-IBIG Fund raised its maximum housing loan amount to ₱10 million to give middle-income earners more home choices, while calling on private developers to offer preferential pricing to help members afford homes in their developments. Pag-IBIG Fund also continues to offer promotional housing loan rates of 4.5% per year for loans of up to ₱4.9 million and 5.75% for loans above ₱4.9 million up to ₱10 million. Both rates are fixed for the first three years, with the promotional offer available until the end of 2026.

Robinsons Land President and CEO Mybelle V. Aragon-GoBio said the partnership brings together housing financing and RLC Residences’ portfolio of homes to help more Filipino families achieve homeownership.

“By bringing together Pag-IBIG’s housing financing solutions and RLC Residences’ diverse portfolio of homes, we hope to make homeownership more accessible to more Filipino families and bring them closer to finding a place they can truly call their own,” Aragon-GoBio said.

“We recognize that our progress as a developer is measured by more than the buildings we complete or the communities we establish. It is ultimately measured by the lives we touch, the families we welcome, and the opportunities we help create. Through this partnership, we hope to make that impact even greater,” she added.

Under the memorandum of understanding, qualified members will have access to participating Robinsons Land homes, which may include ready-for-occupancy units, with preferential pricing and buyer incentives subject to specific terms and availability. Home-matching activities, housing fairs, member briefings and online promotions will help members find suitable homes. Housing loan counseling and assistance with documentary requirements will help them understand what they can afford and how to apply, with loan approval subject to Pag-IBIG Fund’s evaluation and applicable guidelines.

Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Officer Marilene C. Acosta said the growing number of developer partners advances Pag-IBIG Fund’s continuing efforts to match more affordable homes with financing within members’ means.

“We know how much owning a home means to our members and their families. That dream becomes more attainable when an affordable home price is matched by financing that keeps monthly payments within their means. Through our partnership with Robinsons Land, we are bringing together its preferential pricing and buyer incentives with our affordable Pag-IBIG Housing Loans,” Acosta said.

“Lower monthly payments help families sustain their housing loan repayments while leaving more room in their budget for other necessities, savings and plans for the future. We want our members to find a home that suits their family and their budget, with affordable home financing they can rely on from Pag-IBIG Fund,” she added.

Acosta and Aragon-GoBio signed the memorandum of understanding on Oct. 5 in Pasig City, with Aliling witnessing the signing. Also serving as witnesses were Pag-IBIG Fund Deputy Chief Executive Officer Alexander Hilario G. Aguilar and Robinsons Land Business Unit General Manager Teddy V. Bernas for RLC Residences. Other officials in attendance were DHSUD Senior Usec. Eduardo P. Robles, Jr. Pag-IBIG Fund Deputy Chief Executive Officer Benjamin R. Felix Jr., Senior Vice President Fermin A. Sta. Teresa, Jr., and Acting Vice Presidents Atty. Jose Robert Po and Tina Marie Gabiosa.
