Carousell Philippines, the leading online classifieds marketplace in the country, has launched the Carousell Property Awards, honoring the notable and pioneering real estate developers in the Philippines as well as their noteworthy developments in the last two years.
It is, simply put, meant to recognize the tireless efforts of real estate companies and property developers to meet the housing demands of Filipinos, especially during the pandemic.
“Real estate developers and leaders play a key role in providing Filipinos safe and comfortable living. We believe that it’s now time for us to recognize our key partners who have been working with Carousell throughout the years and their relentless efforts in helping Filipinos achieve their dream homes,” said Carousell Philippines’ general manager Djon Nacario.
