A decade of celebrating excellence, honoring the best in Philippine real estate
(Editor’s note: These are excerpts from the speech of Tanya Yu, country manager of Dot Property Philippines, during the 10th Dot Property Philippines Awards 2025 held on September 11.)
Tonight, we gather for a truly special occasion–the 10th year of the Dot Property Philippines Awards, a decade of celebrating excellence and honoring the very best of the Philippine real estate industry.
Over the past 10 years, this stage has become more than just a platform of recognition–it has become a testament to the vision, resilience, and innovation that continue to shape our country’s property landscape.
Exciting crossroad
The Philippine real estate industry today stands at an exciting crossroad. We are seeing unprecedented growth in residential developments, the continued transformation of urban centers, the rise of sustainable and green communities, and the expanding opportunities brought by digital platforms.
As our economy strengthens and our cities evolve, developers and agents remain at the heart of progress, building not just homes and spaces, but communities and legacies for generations of Filipinos.
It’s a celebration of those remarkable individuals and companies who go above and beyond to set new standards–our developers who push the boundaries of design, sustainability, and innovation; our agents who serve as the bridge between dreams and reality, connecting families, investors, and communities to properties that shape their lives.
Together, you define what “the best of the best” truly means.
Unmatched reach, trust
We also proudly share with you that since June of this year, Lamudi is now a part of the Dot Property family. Already, we have seen how bringing together two of the Philippines’ largest property platforms in Dot Property and Lamudi, has created something truly powerful.
Together, these two platforms give us unmatched reach, trust, and influence in the market. More importantly, it allows us to serve you–the developers, the agents, and the entire real estate community–in bigger and better ways. This new chapter means our awards program will only grow stronger, with even greater visibility, recognition, and impact across the industry.
As we look ahead, let us be reminded that the future of Philippine real estate lies in collaboration, innovation, and a shared commitment to raising the bar higher. Tonight, we honor the trailblazers who are not just part of this future but who are also leading it.
Congratulations to all our awardees. May your stories inspire the next decade of growth, innovation, and excellence. Here’s to 10 years of celebrating the best and to many more years of building the future of Philippine real estate together.
