The ongoing upgrade of Ninoy Aquino International Airport (NAIA) is set to boost the Philippines’ role in international travel. This project aims to increase NAIA’s capacity from 35 million to 62 million passengers annually, positioning the Philippines as a pivotal hub for tourism, business, and investment. With major airlines expanding services and new plans from the Department of Tourism, tourist arrivals are expected to nearly double by 2028. This underscores the value of rental properties in prime locations managed by SMDC Good Stays.

Property guru Carl Dy presented “6 Techniques for Unit Rental Success,” highlighting how property owners can capitalize on the travel boom with SMDC Good Stays. According to Dy, the professional management services provided attract reliable tenants, prepare units for occupancy, and maintain properties, enabling owners to focus on maximizing returns.
Dy noted common mistakes among property investors, emphasizing that owners must master the “3 Ps” for rental condos to thrive: setting a fair price for the target market (price); ensuring the unit is flawlessly maintained, clean, and well-designed for its intended occupants (product); and managing the (process) effectively. Many falter in this last aspect – owners should treat tenants as they would paying customers, engaging them courteously from initial inquiry through move-in and providing excellent customer service.
