Dataland creates structures beyond the standards

- By Theresa S. Samaniego

P RESENTED with a myriad of choices all claiming to be the best, how does one choose the wisest investment.

It can be a tricky exercise, especially in the case of the real estate industry, where a choice will prompt one to shell out a huge amount from his or her hard-earned savings, to fund that "dream home."

But before signing any contract and handing over that precious check payment, it is an imperative for a buyer to do his or her homework: know your developers and their affiliates, study their track records, and check their reputation--lest you want those savings going down the drain.

Take the case of property developer DataLand Inc. While relatively a newcomer in this realty scene, DataLand could already boast of invaluable expertise and of highly-skilled management and workers, who will ensure that the company is able to deliver high quality developmen­ts to customers.

A brainchild of DDT Konstract, Inc. chair and president Engineer Danilo Tamayo, DataLand is well poised to become one of the strongest players in the Philippine real estate industry by providing affordable quality homes for the mid-market. And this is a feat it hopes to achieve by adapting some of the best practices that its founders, management team and design partners have acquired over the years.

"Our chairman owns one of the top triple A contractor­s in the country. He's been building for a number of top developers in the country for many years already when he realized that he wanted to do something more. So, instead of just building for others, he started building projects himself. This way, he will have more control on the quality of the project. From the very start, creating a real estate developmen­t company was already part of his plan. This was a mission he wanted to fulfill and a move he believed could help propel the company's growth," shared DataLand AVP for Business Developmen­t Paul Vincent R. Chua.

Indeed, just like in building a home, wherein the structure's sturdiness and strength lies on the quality of its foundation, it is an advantage that a developer has a strong constructi­on background, solid track record and a good reputation to bank on.

Anchored on DDTKI's constructi­on expertise, DataLand promises to deliver cutting-edge developmen­ts that will uplift and enhance the living standards of its future residents. It is also committed to deliver quality beyond the basics and to provide good value for money, as it continues to be consistent in its pursuit of excellence. This very well assures buyers of long-term value for their investment.

High quality devt.'s

"Every DataLand developmen­t you will buy will make for a good investment. The company prides itself in building high quality developmen­ts to the point that if a certain product is not delivered the way our chairman envisioned it to be, then we will redo everything at our own expense," Chua related.

"Our chairman is very handson in our businesses, he wants to make sure that we are able to deliver quality projects all the time. He wants the impressive track record of the constructi­on company to fully reflect on DataLand's projects. This means that DataLand projects have the build quality that clients would expect. In the end, our buyers would have no reason to worry because they wouldn't have to do and conduct a lot of reworking on their units," he further said.

Part of this quality control is having DDTKI as the company's exclusive contractor, which has it precast facility, thus further ensuring quality of projects from their very foundation.

"We have our own state-ofthe-art precast facility in Tanauan, Batangas. This precast system is what we use for our developmen­ts, which makes for a very efficient and strong wall panel system so one is assured of less work and better quality," Chua shared.

Chua further pointed out that unlike most developmen­ts in the affordable segment, DataLand's units have upgraded finishes and is almost ready for occupancy upon turnover. These units could also be rented out as well, thus making any DataLand project an even better and wiser investment.

"Right now, we are focusing on delivering to the market three things that we believe are crucial in ensuring that homeowners will always remain satisfied and will be able to live happy, comfortabl­e lives. First would be location because we believe that every developmen­t must be strategica­lly located. Second is product quality as we guarantee buyers that what we're offering them is the best that they can get on this segment. And lastly is price, reasonable pricing considerin­g the product offering, simply because we are the contractor ourselves, this means that our deliverabl­e is a cut above our segment," Chua shared.

"So these make our developmen­ts a wiser option for investment, further bolstered by the various amenities and features that can provide an upgraded living experience for homeowners. At DataLand, we are not only after about delivering huge amenities. What we provide are thoughtful amenities--something which homeowners could really use and not spend so much on," he explained.

Valuable project

DataLand waxed confident that upon turnover of its first developmen­t, people will readily see the value of the project and the hard work that has been put into it, as these could easily give that much needed assurance.

"We promise that each developmen­t that we will offer to the market would be better or at par with the set standards of the industry. Our constructi­on company has built some of the tallest and grandest structures in the country, so we assure homebuyers that what we will be giving is a product that is above what is expected for this particular market segment. Our projects, upon completion, will be one of the best investment options for the hardworkin­g segment," Chua concluded.

Data Land is in the business of real estate, focusing on residentia­l, retail and commercial, and as well as hospitalit­y and leisure developmen­ts. Currently, the company has several ongoing projects, including a mixed-use high-rise developmen­t in Shaw Boulevard, Mandaluyon­g City, and a residentia­l condominiu­m in Sta. Mesa, Manila.
