IQI<\/strong> has strengthened its presence in the Philippines through a strategic partnership with Mapletree Investments Corp<\/strong>, a Metro Manila-based real estate brokerage firm generating more than 1 billion Philippine pesos in annual sales.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The partnership deepens IQI’s footprint in one of Southeast Asia’s most dynamic property markets. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Philippines receives more than US$5 billion in remittances flowing into property annually, while outbound residential investment is estimated at over US$750 million in 2025. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The market serves both as a destination for foreign investors and as a significant source of cross-border capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group CEO Kashif Ansari<\/strong> said the move reinforces IQI’s strategy of strengthening key growth markets across Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We are establishing our extended country operation in the Philippines in partnership with Mapletree Investments Corp. Mapletree is a Metro Manila-based real estate brokerage firm with a strong local presence and more than 1 billion Philippine pesos in annual sales.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said the collaboration enhances IQI’s ability to connect local expertise with global investment flows.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The partnership further reinforces our footprint in the Philippines and brings a new team of experienced professionals to our network. Most importantly for our global network, which operates extensively with cross-border buyers, the new IQI Philippines will connect local buyers and developers with global investment opportunities and investors.”<\/p>\nKashif Ansari, Co Founder and Group CEO of IQI.<\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Ansari added that the Philippines’ extensive overseas Filipino investor base and rising regional investment interest make it strategically aligned with IQI’s cross-border platform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juwai IQI Co-Founder and Group Managing Director Daniel Ho<\/strong> said buyer demand in the Philippines has broadened in recent years, with a growing mix of investors and resident expatriates. Foreign buyers are most active in Metro Manila, Cebu and key resort destinations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He noted that the local housing market is recovering as supply tightens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“New condo supply will drop by a third in 2026 and by 2028 it will be only about 20% of last year’s level.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The adjustment in new supply is expected to support market stability and strengthen long-term fundamentals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the partnership, Christine Dara Ko Saavedra<\/strong>, CEO of Mapletree Investments Corp, has been appointed Country Head of IQI Philippines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Mapletree’s decision to join IQI resulted from the desire to align with a world-class team that embodies a high-performance corporate culture,” Saavedra said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“IQI is one of the largest real estate brokerages born out of Asia and offers an unparalleled network, industry-leading technology, a highly professional team and great culture.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She said joining IQI will elevate Mapletree’s ability to serve clients seeking both domestic and international real estate opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We see significant appetite among our clients to diversify their portfolios internationally. Being part of the IQI network will enable us to act as the bridge between the local and global.”<\/p>\nChristine Dara Ko Saavedra, CEO of Mapletree Investments Corp and Country Head of IQI Philippines<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Through the integration, IQI Philippines will leverage the group’s Atlas super app, AI-powered IQPilot, IQIGlobal.com, juwai.com and juwai.asia property portals, as well as its international referral and marketing platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The expansion strengthens IQI’s position in Southeast Asia and reinforces its strategy to connect local property markets with global investors through technology, cross-border expertise and an integrated international network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
