BIZ BUZZ: Meet Pag-Ibig Fund’s top 10 NCR housing developers

The Home Development Mutual Fund, or Pag-Ibig Fund, rolled out the red carpet for its top-performing property developers in Metro Manila.
During the first-half 2025 edition of its Stakeholders’ Accomplishment Report held on Aug. 1 in Manila, Pag-Ibig honored developers whose projects helped drive the agency’s housing loan portfolio.
The topnotcher in the National Capital Region is 8990 Housing Development Corp. Group. It is followed by Axeia Development Corp. Group and Joy-Nostalg Three Hearth Corp.
Completing the top 10 are: New APEC Four Development Corp. Group; Citihomes Builder Group; Homemark Inc. Group; Pacific Town Property Ventures Inc.; DDC Land Inc.; Haus Talk Inc. and New San Jose Builders Inc.
The ranking is based on the total value of housing loan takeout for the period in review.
Pag-Ibig lends as much as P6 million to help members buy (or build and renovate) homes for as long as a 30-year repayment period. For socialized housing (P850,000 to P1.8 million), it covers 100 percent of home value.
Not a bad club to be in, especially since a few of these top developers are listed on the stock exchange—namely 8990 Housing and Haus Talk. (But the 8990 Housing is voluntarily delisting soon.)
Looks like Pag-Ibig isn’t just building opportunities for home ownership, it’s also building bragging rights.
