The 13th PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards continues to set the benchmark for excellence in the real estate industry

- REY ROBES ILAGAN Illustrations by ANGELO MANALO

The 13th PropertyGuru Philippines Property Awards once again sets the gold standard for celebrating the nation's finest in real estate. This year's edition, with 69 categories, honors the most outstanding designs, developments, and developers across the country, highlighting innovation, sustainability, and the people shaping the country's built environment. The gala night was held at Shangri-La The Fort in Taguig City on August 15, 2025.

More than just an awards night, the PropertyGuru platform champions excellence in design and innovation while contributing to economic growth and infrastructure development. This year also marks the 20th anniversary of the Asia Property Awards, a milestone that underscores two decades of recognizing exceptional projects and visionaries transforming real estate across the region. It continues to help shape smarter, greener, and more livable communities in the Philippines.

“The companies in the shortlist this evening clearly demonstrate the ever-increasing quality and variety on offer in the Philippines—not only in Metro Manila but also in emerging fast-growing destinations like Visayas and Metro Davao in Mindanao,” says Jules Kay, general manager of PropertyGuru Awards and Events. “Even beyond this country’s borders, last year the Philippines garnered the most awards in our international series. The Philippines had 12 accolades in Best of Asia.”
