Filipinohomes Team Red Diamonds Deepens Suntrust Product Knowledge in Bacolod

BACOLOD CITY — Team Red Diamonds of Filipinohomes gathered at the network’s Bacolod office on June 12, 2026, for a product knowledge seminar presented by Suntrust Properties Inc. The morning session delivered a detailed walk‑through of the developer’s residential portfolio in Negros Occidental. A Suntrust representative led agents through project specifications, house models, pricing, and buyer qualification guidelines.

Participants reviewed floor plans and sample amortization schedules tied to Pag‑IBIG’s subsidized 3 percent interest rate under the Expanded 4PH Program. The training spotlighted La Riviera, a 23.55‑hectare coastal community in Barangay Tinampa‑an, Cadiz City. Its four house models—Dale, Brooke, Aspen, and Linden—cater to both starting families and growing households. Resort‑style amenities and modern infrastructure complete the master‑planned community.

A Coastal Community with Affordable Appeal

La Riviera draws its name from the Italian word for “coastline,” reflecting its location just four kilometers from the Cadiz shoreline. The development offers a clubhouse, swimming pools, basketball court, children’s play area, and pocket parks. A landscaped entrance, concrete main road, underground drainage, and 24/7 security ensure a secure, well‑planned environment.

The project is strategically located near City Mall Cadiz, Cadiz City Port, Tingson’s Beach Resort, Philippine Normal University, and the Cadiz Health Center. This positions La Riviera as an attractive option for first‑time homebuyers, public school teachers, and OFW families seeking affordable coastal living. The training equipped agents with the knowledge to confidently present these advantages to potential buyers.

Suntrust’s 5,288‑Home Negros Pipeline

The seminar framed La Riviera within Suntrust’s broader expansion across Negros Occidental. The developer is offering a total of 5,288 houses in the province, including The Fountain Grove in Bacolod and La Sonrisa in Talisay City. La Sonrisa broke ground on March 21, 2026, inside Megaworld’s P8‑billion The Sugartown township.

Negros Occidental’s economy grew by 5.1 percent in 2024, driven by services and a robust 11.9‑percent expansion in industry. Infrastructure improvements, festival tourism, and sports events continue to fuel real estate demand. For Team Red Diamonds, the product knowledge gained on June 12 positions agents to serve buyers across multiple price segments. The training reinforced the network’s commitment to equipping its sales force with the expertise needed to navigate one of the Visayas’ most dynamic property markets.
