They have become widely known for their own individual accomplishments and specific project developments. Buttressed by a marketing network that extends to several countries, the brands have become widely familiar to Filipinos who work overseas. The brand strength at the subsidiary level should help raise awareness of Vista Land as the publicly-listed holding company and facilitate understanding of Vista Land’s business profile.
4. Experience
With a more than 30-year track record building houses for customers across a wide range of income segments, the company has proven its ability to plan and implement major projects. This experience extends to many facets of the business, including strategic land purchases, conceptualization of projects, marketing and sales, and early recognition of market trends.
5. Solid Financial Position
The company significantly strengthened its financial position with the help of the capital infusion from the share offering in 2007 and delivered excellent earnings for the fiscal year. A large cash balance, low debt level, and healthy cash flows.
6. High quality, strategically located Land bank
As of end of December 2017, our land bank comprised a total of about 2,640.2 hectares (including 84.8 ha of Starmalls landbank). This greatly enhances our prospects for future growth and increases the company’s flexibility to accelerate project development. The majority (i.e., about 63%) of our land bank is in the Mega Manila area with the balance located in the provincial areas.
7. Strong Management Team
Our management team has a proven track record, having overseen the completion and sale of well over 250,000 houses. Although our five subsidiaries are separate operating entities, there is close coordination among management to ensure that where possible, the company is able to take full advantage of synergies and collectively execute a coherent strategy.
