🏡 THINGS WE CONSIDERED BEFORE PURCHASING OUR FIRST HOME
Buying a home isn’t just about ownership — it’s about building a life you can enjoy while creating a secure future.
Here are the things we considered before choosing our home:
1. Location – Flood-free (proven and tested), accessible, and aligned with long-term goals
Why Seriya - Ovialand: Strategically located in Bulacan with accessibility between Manila and Pampanga while staying away from flood-prone areas. Nearby essentials are within reach - markets, groceries, hospitals, churches, schools, coffee shops, and many more. Everything you need for everyday living is complete and conveniently accessible.
2. Quality of Materials – Good construction saves you from costly repairs in the long run
Why Ovialand: Seriya uses precast materials, which are a great choice because they are known for being strong, durable, and made with consistent quality. Since precast materials are produced in a controlled environment before being installed, they are built with better precision and fewer construction issues. This helps create a home that is more sturdy, reliable, and designed to last for years. For homeowners, it means better quality, less worry, and a home that’s truly worth investing in. 🏡✨
3. Amenities – Choose a community where you can grow, rest, and create memories
Why Ovialand: Amenities like the swimming pool and multipurpose court support family life and recreation.
4. Lighting & Ventilation – A bright, airy home feels healthier and more comfortable
Why Ovialand: Wide windows and airflow help reduce heat and electricity costs.
5. Finished Type – Move-in ready homes reduce stress, time, and renovation expenses
Why Ovialand: The finished unit makes it livable immediately.
6. Security – A home feels different when you feel safe inside it
Why Ovialand: Guarded subdivision with a peaceful and secure environment.
7. Turnover Timeline – Knowing your turnover schedule helps financial planning
Why Ovialand: Based on our experience, Ovialand offers one of the fastest turnover periods, making it easier for buyers to adjust, plan ahead, and transition into their new home with less waiting time and uncertainty. 🏡✨
8. Renovation Flexibility – Some homes allow upgrades while others have limitations
Why Ovialand: Basic improvements and enhancements are allowed.
9. Utilities Setup – Check water and electricity readiness upon turnover
Why Ovialand: Utility connections are organized and convenient.
10. Service & Warranty – Responsive developers make homeownership less stressful
Why Ovialand: Ovialand has a dedicated portal where homeowners can easily raise concerns or report unit issues. Based on our experience, their team is proactive and responsive, making it easier to get updates, assistance, and support whenever needed. 🏡✨
11. Insurance Before Property – Protect yourself and your investment first. Insurance gives additional peace of mind that whatever happens, you can sustain your current lifestyle.
12. Property Appreciation – A home is a long-term asset that grows in value
Why Ovialand: Bulacan continues to rise in value because of development and accessibility.
13. Financing Options – Compare carefully because small differences matter long-term
Why Ovialand: Flexible terms helped match budget and goals.
14. Budgeting – Include move-in fees, furnishings, and daily expenses
Why Ovialand: Pricing allows room for savings and lifestyle balance.
15. Emergency Fund – Keep savings intact even after getting the keys
Why: Sustainable monthly payments matter more than simply owning a bigger house.
