Most people think the monthly payment is the biggest reason they can't buy a property.
But here's what changed.
โ
4.5% interest rate for housing loans up to โฑ2.5M
โ
5.75% interest rate for loans above โฑ2.5M up to โฑ10M
โ
Available until December 31, 2026
What does this mean in real life?
A โฑ2.5M housing loan payable for 30 years can now have a monthly amortization of around **โฑ12,667.**
That's approximately **โฑ2,700 lower every month** compared to the previous 6.25% rate.
Think about that.
โฑ2,700 monthly savings means:
โ๏ธ Extra budget for groceries
โ๏ธ Additional emergency savings
โ๏ธ Additional MP2 investments
โ๏ธ More financial breathing room for your family
This is why interest rates matter.
Most buyers focus only on:
โ "Magkano reservation?"
โ "Magkano cash out?"
But the bigger question is:
How much will you pay every month for the next 20 to 30 years?
A lower interest rate today can save hundreds of thousands of pesos over the life of the loan.
If you're currently renting and paying โฑ12,000โโฑ20,000 monthly, this may be the best time to check your buying power while these promotional rates are available.
You don't need to decide today.
But it may be worth checking what your options look like before the rates are repriced.
