Over the years, Camella has evolved to become synonymous with quality.
Breadth and Depth of Vista Land’s Housing Portfolio
Vista Land, the Philippine’s largest home builder, owns a diverse portfolio spanning house and lot communities, vertical residential projects, and lifestyle malls in strategically located areas.

The Housing Spectrum
The pursuit of a home is a deeply personal journey that reflects the unique aspirations and priorities of each individual and family. As such, the real estate spectrum is also nuanced, driven by distinct needs and growing demand.
When looking for properties, prospective homeowners often find themselves at the crossroads of many considerations. This includes budget constraints, preferred locations, desired sizes and layouts, and considerations for future resale value. There is also the consideration of the property’s location. Whether one wants to be within Metro Manila, in cities like Makati, Mandaluyong or Quezon City or in next wave cities in different provinces like Cagayan de Oro.

Recognizing this interplay, Vista Land, as a major real estate player, caters to these varied preferences through its diverse offerings. The company strategically positions itself by keeping in its portfolio, a wide range of housing options, priced according to their value offering, ensuring accessibility to a broad audience.

‘Upper Middle-market’ Segment
Between the low mid and high-income segments lies the upper middle-income segment, an important demographic of the real estate landscape in the Philippines. Overall, middle-income earners comprise more than half of the population.
This bracket is further divided into lower-middle-income and upper-middle-income segments. As such, there are also varying aspirations within this demographic when it comes to homebuying. However, there is one recurring theme—a balance between comfort, financial prudence, and a touch of luxury.
Overall, upper middle-income homebuyers aspire to reside in comfortable living spaces with modern amenities and well-thought-out designs. Much like their counterparts in the value-priced segment, middle-income individuals view homeownership as a path to financial stability. For them, these are long-term investments with potential for appreciation.
How Camella captured the middle-income segment

Camella emerged as a market leader by offering value-for-money homes beyond the Mega Manila area, priced at rates that are not only accessible but also resonate with middle-income earners’ financial aspirations.
Providing comfort while being practical
Above all, Camella’s success lies in its understanding that these discerning buyers seek more than just a home. Middle-income earners aspire for a residence that embodies comfort and practicality without sacrificing quality.
While not necessarily pursuing the priciest luxury, middle-income homebuyers like overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) appreciate certain moderate luxury features, such as energy-efficient homes and well-designed outdoor spaces.
Offering financial flexibility
