- By Carmelito Q. Francisco

DAVAO CITY — Damosa Land, Inc. (DLI), the real estate arm of the Floirendo’s Anflo Management and Investment Corp., has tapped Colliers Internatio­nal Philippine­s to manage its first six-tower condominiu­m project, Seawind.

Ricardo F. Lagdameo, DLI vicepresid­ent, said the agreement between the two companies could expand to other projects.

“This is just an initial agreement. We might want to look at expanding this in the future,” Mr. Lagdameo told

BusinessWo­rld last week after the two companies signed the agreement, the first management contract for Colliers Internatio­nal in Mindanao.

Alejandre Ilaga, Colliers Internatio­nal executive director for real management services, said in a statement: “We can assure unit owners of the high standard of service that Colliers is globally known for.”

The project, located on a 2.8-hectare area in Davao City with a view of the nearby Island Garden City of Samal, has swimming pools, bicycle lane, basketball court, and a playground.

The six buildings occupy about a third of the property, while the rest for the common amenities and green space.

Mr. Ilaga said Davao “remains an attractive location for local and foreign property investors and we see the Seawind project benefittin­g from the renewed interest in the city.”

DLI is set to turn over next month the first 165 units to buyers. Of the total 1,161 units, only 129 have yet to be sold, according to the company’s report as of end-August. Mr. Lagdameo earlier told Business

World that DLI had adjusted the project’s timetable two years earlier than initially planned, with completion of the constructi­on now set for 2019, following encouragin­g sales performanc­e.

Constructi­on of the third tower started in August while completion was set for the third quarter of 2018.
