Filipinohomes Expands Developer Network With BE Residences Product Knowledge Seminar in Dumaguete on April 18

DUMAGUETE CITY – Filipinohomes, one of the country’s fastest-growing real estate networks, has further expanded its portfolio of developer partners by holding a product knowledge seminar on BE Residences in Dumaguete City on April 18, 2026.

The event, attended by the network’s local agents and brokers, provided a deep dive into BE Residences’ projects, including their unique design philosophy and investment potential. The move follows Filipinohomes’ strategy of bringing a wider range of property options to its agents in key provincial hubs, with Dumaguete being a top priority.

BE Residences: A developer with a growing footprint

BE Residences is the property development arm of the Benedicto-led BE Group of Companies, which is also behind the multi-awarded BE Hotels & Resorts. The group has expressed interest in expanding into Dumaguete, with company chairman Enrique Benedicto previously announcing that the city is among the locations being scouted for future residential projects alongside the island province of Siquijor.

Beyond its planned expansion into Negros Oriental, BE Residences has been actively growing its presence in the Visayas. The company is currently developing Balai Helena in Dauis, Panglao Island, a 2.5-hectare master-planned community featuring three residential towers offering studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units. It has also broken ground on BE Pods Lahug and BE Pods Alona, its first ventures into the limited-service hotel sector.

The company’s expansion has been fueled by its philosophy of creating residential spaces that “not only provide shelter but enrich lives by combining functionality, comfort, and modern design”.

A partnership built for growth

The partnership with Filipinohomes is part of BE Residences’ broader push to expand its reach to a wider market. In late March 2026, the BE Group opened a new office in Bonifacio Global City (BGC), marking the company’s entry into the Luzon market.

For Filipinohomes agents in Dumaguete, the product knowledge seminar provides them with the expertise to market a developer known for its resort-inspired amenities and commitment to sustainable, lifestyle-oriented communities.

Dumaguete: A growing real estate hub

The seminar comes at a time when Dumaguete’s real estate market is gaining momentum. The city was recently ranked as the #1 Safest City to Visit in the Philippines for 2026 by the World Travel Index, with a safety rating of 82.28 percent. The accolade has helped boost investor confidence and attract interest from both local and international buyers.

Filipinohomes has been actively expanding its presence in Dumaguete, with its soon-to-open office operated by Team Tigers Eye and CEO Anthony Leuterio’s recent site inspection in the city. The network has also conducted a beginner real estate seminar and a brokerage meeting in the city, laying the groundwork for a sustained presence in the capital of Negros Oriental.

With the addition of BE Residences to its roster of developer partners, Filipinohomes continues to broaden the range of property options available to its agents in Dumaguete — from affordable housing to premium resort-style communities. The product knowledge seminar underscores the network’s commitment to equipping its sales force with the expertise needed to serve a diverse and growing client base.
