Tristan Las Marias has played a pivotal role in strengthening our property segment and has made valuable contributions in its geographic expansion to 12 new areas around the country. He shares our same vision and has been instrumental in Filinvest Land’s continued commitment to serve the underserved markets, particularly the affordable and middle-market segments,” said Josephine Gotianun Yap.

“Filinvest Land’s business recovery is in part thanks to the company’s agile business continuity program during the height of the pandemic and the accelerated transformation towards digitization. We also endeavored to support the communities we are in through relief and community CSR programs through Pusong Filinvest.
These initiatives were ably helmed by Tristan Las Marias together with our C-suite officers and executives. As a result, Filinvest Land’s residential revenues grew by 14 percent in 2021 vs 2020 to Php 12 billion. We are grateful for his brand of leadership. I look forward to working with him in my capacity as Chief Executive Officer of Filinvest Land to further bolster our real estate segment,” added Gotianun Yap.
The real estate developer shared that Las Marias was behind Filinvest Land’s stronghold in Visayas and Mindanao where residential sales increased by over a compounded annual growth rate of 30 percent over the course of 15 years under his guidance as Business Group Head. The company also shared that Las Marias was instrumental in the success of Filinvest Land’s various Public-Private Partnership projects with the government including the 50-hectare City di Mare township in South Road Properties, one of the company’s landmark projects.
“I look forward to continuing working with our talented team in Filinvest Land and the other business leaders of the Filinvest group. I am fully committed to continuing our legacy of building the Filipino dream for families here and overseas. We shall propel forward towards a more sustainable and green future, past the ill-effects of the pandemic, and serve our customers, employees, business partners, shareholders, and all our stakeholders,” said Tristan Las Marias, Filinvest Land President, and Chief Strategy Officer.
