Filipinohomes Team LR Direct Bacolod Honors Top Performers at Awards Night

BACOLOD CITY — Filipinohomes Team LR Direct gathered on September 28, 2026, for an awarding ceremony and dinner celebrating the team's top-performing agents and unit managers. The event honored sales excellence while reinforcing the camaraderie that drives collective success in one of the Visayas' most dynamic property markets.

A Night of Recognition and Gratitude

The ceremony recognized agents who delivered outstanding results in sales volume, deal closures, and client satisfaction. Certificates and incentives were distributed to top achievers, with team leaders delivering remarks emphasizing consistency, client service, and professional integrity. The recognition served as both a celebration and a motivator for the final quarter.

Team LR Direct has been an active force in Bacolod's real estate scene, consistently contributing to Filipinohomes' market presence. The event highlighted how individual achievements contribute to the network's broader growth in Negros Occidental, strengthening the branch's reputation for excellence and reliability.

Building Camaraderie Beyond the Office

The dinner that followed allowed team members to connect outside formal training environments. Over shared meals, agents exchanged field stories, discussed challenges, and strengthened relationships. This culture of camaraderie has become a hallmark of the Filipinohomes network, where colleagues support one another through both victories and setbacks.

Such gatherings build trust that translates into better collaboration in the field. Agents feel comfortable seeking advice and sharing leads, knowing their teammates genuinely care about their success. This supportive ecosystem attracts top talent and encourages long-term retention within the network.

Bacolod's Thriving Market Provides Platform

The event unfolded against sustained growth in Bacolod's property landscape. Colliers Philippines reports the city's condominium take-up rate at 90 percent, while house-and-lot projects exceed 90 percent absorption. These figures reflect strong demand from local buyers, overseas Filipino workers, and investors.

Major developers continue advancing projects across Negros Occidental. PHINMA Properties is developing Saludad, a 21-hectare township featuring Maayo Terraces and Likha Estates. Megaworld is pursuing The Sugartown, a 97-hectare development along the Bacolod-Silay Airport Road. Suntrust Properties targets over 5,000 homes across the province, while SMDC prepares to turn over units at Smile Residences.

The city's economy grew by 4.9 percent in 2025, with a GDP of ₱146.09 billion. Business permit renewal revenues reached ₱376 million in early 2026, a 15.3 percent increase. These indicators point to a robust local economy supporting real estate activity.

A Month of Intensive Activities

The September 28 awarding and dinner followed a busy month for Filipinohomes in Bacolod. Earlier that day, Team LR Direct held a New Agents Orientation, welcoming fresh recruits with training on prospecting, client handling, and compliance. The simultaneous events demonstrated the team's commitment to both recruitment and recognition.

On September 19, the network hosted an open house at PHirst Park Homes Bacolod, showcasing the 16.3-hectare community in Barangay Estefania. On September 17, founder and CEO Anthony Leuterio conducted a site visit at WeeComm's Kalea Estates with the local team and held a breakfast meeting with the Elite Circle Bacolod. On September 11, Team Red Diamond held a Team Update and Training session. Earlier in the month, virtual orientations and product knowledge seminars kept agents sharp on Megaworld, Suntrust, and PHINMA projects.

Positioned for a Strong Finish

For agents who attended the awarding and dinner, the event provided recognition and renewed motivation. With the National Real Estate Convention 2026 approaching on October 18-19 at Jpark Island Resort and Waterpark in Mactan, Cebu, Team LR Direct is positioned to finish the year strong.

As Filipinohomes pushes toward its goal of 150 branches nationwide, events like this ensure the Bacolod team remains aligned, motivated, and ready to meet demand. The session reflects the network's commitment to a people-first culture where celebrating success is essential to sustaining long-term growth.
