CLI launches first CDO project Mesaverte

More or less three years of meticulous search, home-grown developer Cebu Landmasters Inc. launched in Cagayan de Oro its first project outside their base. Introduced during the grand launch held last November 6, Mesaverte Residences is a community composed of three mid-rise condominiums soon to stand in the middle of CDO metropolis.

CLI Chief Operating Officer Jose Franco Soberano admitted that it took them years to decide on this project. “We waited patiently and this opportunity, this beautiful 8,700 square meter property was presented to us.”

Mesaverte Residences will be built in the prime neighbourhood between Corrales and Osmeña Extension, parallel and in-between Claro M. Recto Avenue and Capitol University. It is near to mall, hospitals and universities such as Gaisano City Mall, Centrio Ayala Mall, Northern Mindanao Medical Center, Mindanao University of Science and Technoloy and Limketkai Center.

CEO and Chairman of the Board Jose Soberano III said that this location exactly fits the elements of perfection that their company sees as an ideal place for a residential condominium. He also said that they painstakingly put an effort to make sure of the preparation. In the selection, they went through processes and come up with the best team possible who make perfect the ideal balance of the location and desired combination of the project.

Mesaverte Residences will be built in two phases. Phase 1 comprises the first two buildings that would house the clubhouse and amenity areas, slated to be completed in 2018. Each building would have 15 floors and 252 units, having four corner units with balcony. Each also has 18 residential units per floor with three 1-bedroom units and 15 studio units in an average area of 20 square meters.

Further, condo buyers could have an option to combine two or more units to expand and create a more comfortable space.

For Phase 2, the third building is planned for 294 units while the whole cluster is allocated with 239 parking lots.

The amenities for this CDO project include separate adult and kiddie swimming pools with a sunken pool deck. Air-conditioned function rooms and fitness gym will contain the clubhouse as well. Moreover, there would be also basketball court, jogging paths and children’s playground, and a retail arcade will then be built at the main entrance. These amenities and the Mesaverte Residences, in entirety, are set to provide an ideal venue for neighbourhood building, family-bonding and healthy-living.

Further, Soberano reported that in just two months before the launching, their team started breaking the ground and with the pre-selling, targeting young professionals, start-up families, and investors. As of the launching date, 180 out of 504 units have been sold already.

He also remarked that residents will be well taken care of even after the condo is built, through their personalized management.

“We are confident that we will deliver a product that few, the quality-conscious market in Cagayan de Oro truly deserves, and it does not end there, personalized service means extension with the best manner in terms of turnover of the product… We will continue to property-manage it,” he added. In 30 months or less, CLI will establish their own property management team for the maintenance and up-keep of the condo.

The CEO also proudly said that yes, they are home-grown developer and they know that they are faced by the challenges of the industry, but they have competed very well through working on their edge in terms of personal service, having a hardworking team and extending service for the benefit of the buyers and investors. #
