From One Office to Over 144 Branches: Filipinohomes Celebrates CEO and Founder Anthony Leuterio’s Birthday

BACOLOD CITY — The Filipinohomes Bacolod office transformed into a space of gratitude and camaraderie on July 6, 2026, as agents and staff gathered to honor the birthday of founder and CEO Anthony Gerard O. Leuterio. Though Leuterio was not physically present, the team bridged the distance with a heartfelt program that captured the network’s deeply rooted family culture.

Warm Wishes Sent Across the Miles

The celebration opened with a video greeting compiled by agents who shared personal messages of thanks and encouragement. Leuterio’s leadership had opened doors for ordinary Filipinos to build meaningful careers in real estate. The sincerity of the messages transformed the office into an emotional space of shared appreciation.

Tracing Leuterio’s journey from a single startup office in 2008 to the nationwide network that now counts over 144 branches and 35,000 agents. The CEO’s unwavering belief in the Filipino agent’s potential had reshaped the industry. The tribute reinforced that distance could not dilute the team’s loyalty.

A Leader Who Built a Family, Not Just a Company

Leuterio was honored as the 2024 International Realtor of the Year by the National Association of Realtors, a recognition that placed the Philippine real estate sector on the global stage. His vision, however, has always been anchored on the idea that property transactions are secondary to human connections. That philosophy now defines the network’s DNA across every branch.

“At Filipinohomes, we believe success is built not just on real estate, but on relationships,” Leuterio recently shared. The Bacolod gathering became living proof of that statement, as agents who had started with little experience now stood as team leaders and mentors. The birthday party was less about a date on the calendar and more about celebrating the leader who gave them a platform to rise.

Bacolod’s Recent Momentum Reinforces the Mission

The birthday tribute capped a string of productive activities at the Bacolod office. On July 4, Team Red Diamond conducted a New Agents Orientation, equipping recruits with prospecting and digital marketing skills. Just days earlier, on June 30, team leaders and unit managers aligned sales systems and administrative workflows to prepare for a stronger second half of the year.

On June 8, Team VIP completed a product knowledge seminar focused on project specifications and payment schemes. These back‑to‑back activities demonstrated an office in constant motion, driven by a shared desire to deliver results while upholding the network’s core values. The birthday gathering offered a rare pause to reflect on the purpose behind that motion.

A Shared Purpose Beyond the Celebration

As the program drew to a close, the Bacolod team collectively reaffirmed its commitment to the network’s mission. They recognized that their individual growth was intertwined with a larger story of expanding homeownership opportunities across the country. Leuterio’s birthday served not as an endpoint but as a rallying point for the months ahead.

The gathering concluded with a simple meal and conversations that lingered well beyond the scheduled program. In those moments, the genuine bonds that hold the network together were most visible. For the Bacolod team, the day was a reminder that they are not merely agents working under a brand but members of a family building the future side by side.
