Team X-Factor Expands Filipinohomes Presence Across Visayas With Multiple Contract Signings

PHILIPPINES – Team X-Factor, a rapidly growing real estate group, solidified its partnership with Filipinohomes through a series of contract signings held across four key Visayan cities from April 24 to 28, 2026. The events formalized the affiliation of unit managers and salespersons under the Filipinohomes network, granting them access to the company’s national property database, developer partnerships, and training resources.

The signing ceremonies took place in Iloilo, Bacolod, Dumaguete, and Cebu, demonstrating the team’s broad regional reach and Filipinohomes’ aggressive expansion strategy toward its goal of 150 branches nationwide. Each event was marked by the team’s unifying motto: “One Team. One Goal. Exceptional Results.”

Iloilo signing: April 24, 1:30 PM

On April 24, 2026, at 1:30 PM, Team X-Factor signed its contract at the Filipinohomes Iloilo office. The event came as Iloilo City continues to post strong economic indicators. According to the Philippine Statistics Authority, Western Visayas recorded a Gross Domestic Regional Product of ₱683.44 billion in 2025, growing by 6.4 percent – well above the national average of 4.4 percent. Mayor Jerry Treñas has noted that the city’s GDP is growing by 9.6 percent, creating urgent demand for residential and commercial properties.

Major developers are scaling up their commitments. Megaworld Corp. is opening Belmont Hotel Iloilo, its third hotel within the 72‑hectare Iloilo Business Park, adding 405 rooms to bring its total hospitality portfolio to 880 room keys – accounting for nearly 25 percent of the entire city’s hotel supply. SM Development Corporation (SMDC) recently energized its first renewable energy system in the Visayas at Style Residences in Iloilo, reducing energy consumption by about 15 percent. Against this backdrop, Team X-Factor’s Iloilo signing positions the group to serve a rapidly expanding buyer base.

Dumaguete signing: April 24, 1:30 PM

Simultaneously, at 1:30 PM on the same day, Team X-Factor held a contract signing at the Filipinohomes Dumaguete office. Dumaguete’s real estate market has gained significant momentum. The city was recently named the #1 Safest City to Visit in the Philippines for 2026 by the World Travel Index, with a safety rating of 82.28 percent. House prices now average roughly ₱71,500 per square meter, with condominiums commanding a roughly 45 percent premium over Bacolod house‑and‑lot properties.

Infrastructure is also accelerating. The national government has allocated ₱2.5 billion under the 2026 General Appropriations Act for the new Dumaguete airport in neighboring Bacong town. The ₱17‑billion airport, funded through South Korea’s official development assistance, will replace the existing Dumaguete‑Sibulan Airport, which currently handles around 800,000 passengers annually. Tourism figures are trending upward, with Negros Oriental logging 954,344 tourists in 2025, up 15.22 percent from 2024. The Dumaguete signing adds a new team to a province already seeing strong development activity.

Bacolod signing: April 24, 10:00 AM

Earlier on April 24, at 10:00 AM, Team X-Factor held a unit managers’ contract signing at the Team X-Factor Bacolod office. The morning session focused on formalizing the leadership structure of the team in Negros Occidental. Bacolod’s real estate market continues to attract major developers. SMDC is strengthening its Visayas footprint, with approximately 1,100 units at Smile Residences within SM City Bacolod slated for turnover starting mid‑2026. The National Housing Authority turned over the first 104 units of MassKara Village in Barangay Sum‑ag on March 24, 2026, with 500 units planned for government employees and overseas Filipino workers.

PHINMA Properties is developing Saludad, a 21‑hectare master‑planned community in Bacolod’s North District, which includes residential neighborhoods, commercial areas, and the TRYP by Wyndham Bacolod hotel. Megaworld is also building The Kingsford Hotel in the city. The Bacolod signing adds a dedicated unit to capture this growing market.

Cebu signing: April 28, 1:30 PM

The series culminated on April 28, 2026, at 1:30 PM, with a contract signing at the Team X-Factor Direct Cebu office. Cebu, as the central hub of the Visayas and the headquarters of Filipinohomes, represents a critical market. The province’s real estate market remains robust, with residential lot prices in Metro Cebu rising by an average of 7 percent annually from 2016 to 2025, and some projects posting compound annual growth rates of 8 to 27 percent. The office vacancy rate in Cebu City fell to 11 percent in 2025, driven by strong leasing activity in key areas such as the Cebu IT Park.

Team X-Factor Direct’s signing in Cebu underscores the team’s commitment to strengthening its presence in the country’s second‑largest real estate market. The Cebu office will also serve as a coordination hub for the team’s other Visayan branches.

A unified push for growth

Across all four locations, Team X-Factor embraced the motto “One Team. One Goal. Exceptional Results.” The group’s rapid expansion aligns with Filipinohomes’ nationwide target of reaching 150 franchise branches. The network currently boasts over 35,000 agents across the country.

For the newly signed unit managers and agents, the contract signings mark the beginning of their formal journey with Filipinohomes. They will undergo onboarding, including training on the network’s multi‑listing platform and integration with developer partners such as Megaworld, SMDC, PHINMA, and BE Residences. Each team will also receive mentorship from experienced brokers and access to Filipinohomes’ nationwide referral network.

Expanding opportunities in the Visayas

By adding Team X-Factor’s units across these four cities, Filipinohomes strengthens its ability to serve homebuyers and investors throughout the Visayas. Iloilo’s economic acceleration, Bacolod’s infrastructure push, Dumaguete’s safety-driven appeal, and Cebu’s status as a national real estate leader offer diverse opportunities for the newly signed agents.

With the contract signings now complete, Team X-Factor is poised to begin field operations in each location, backed by the resources of the country’s largest real estate network. The team has already begun planning joint training sessions and cross‑branch collaboration to ensure consistent service quality across all four offices.
