Philippines Urban Living Solutions (PULS), the largest rental housing provider in the country, and its co-living dormitory brand “MyTown,” continues to prove its success as it launched its 14th building to date–MyTown Auckland.
Named after the city of sails, the newly-opened MyTown Auckland houses 325 beds, bringing MyTown’s portfolio to over 3,300 beds by year’s end, and focuses on providing a relaxing atmosphere with a fully-equipped gym, canteen, open air cinema, and yoga area overlooking the green of the Manila Golf Club. It will also soon open a laundromat and supermarket at its ground floor. Aside from these amenities, it is strategic ally located along Harvard Street in Makati, adjacent to BGC and approximately 1.5 kilometers away from Makati CBD.
MyTown was launched in 2012 due to the market gap in affordable urban housing. Its vision is to provide Filipinos, especially the younger generation, a space that offers more than just a bed. With a projected housing backlog of about 5.7 million housing units, young professionals are hard-pressed for options that are both functional and affordable for their complex lifestyles and limited income. Recognizing this gap in the dynamic Philippine market, MyTown developed the first demand-driven real estate concept in the Philippines.
To further achieve this goal, MyTown buildings are strategically situated in areas of the cities where young professionals have the chance to play, learn, socialize, and even walk to work.
Aside from providing young professionals a space where they can grow, MyTown also partners with corporations with offices in the business districts. They’ve built corporate programs where the partners offer accommodations as part of their employee benefit package, as trainee staff housing, or as part of their business continuity planning. MyTown provide corporate partners a unique solution in engaging and retaining their diverse and highly talented workforce.
As testament to the company’s success, MyTown dormitories enjoy an average occupancy rate of 94%.
