IS YOUR PROSPECT PROPERTY DISASTER PROOF?

Investing or purchasing a property is no joke. It's a huge investment and a long-term commitment. Be sure to conduct your own due diligence about the property you are about to purchase before making the big decision.

One of the things you should look at is the property's vulnerability to natural disasters. Nature has shown us in recent months that she is not a force to be reckoned with. We have seen floods, typhoons, earthquakes and landslides, among others. Fortunately, the DENR, through the Mines and Geosciences Bureau, have made available geohazards maps online.

A geohazard map shows an area's vulnerability to flood and landslides. While it's no substitute for actual ocular inspection, it is an informative tool that it gives you a general outlook for your chosen area.

Here's the link for the DENR's geohazard maps: http://gdis.denr.gov.ph/mgbviewer/.

HOW DOES LOT C FARE GEOHAZARD-WISE?

Lot C Residences is located in San Isidro, Talisay City. According to DENR's geohazard map, San Isidro is NOT susceptible to landslides and has LOW to MODERATE flooding susceptibility.

Actual on-site observations show that the area is NOT prone to flooding. Also, units are constructed 0.8 meter above natural ground level.

The SRP recently made the news when it was cited by world-renowned architect and top urban planner, Felino Palafox, Jr., as a successful model for reclamation projects outside of Metro Manila. It has drawn big businesses into the south, which include SM Prime Holdings, Inc. and Filinvest Land, Inc.

The article (copied verbatim below) shows the SRP's potential for growth, which will surely benefit neighboring areas. There is no better time to invest in the area. 

Lot C Residences is located within a few meters from the SRP road, which gives you direct access to the South Road Properties and the future of Cebu City.

Architect points to Cebu model on good reclamation effects

By
 CEBU CITY—A 300-hectare reclaimed area owned by the Cebu City government has been cited by a top urban planner as a successful model for reclamation projects outside Metro Manila.
Felino Palafox Jr., world renowned architect, said the South Road Properties (SRP) has even been drawing big businesses into the country.

These include SM Prime Holdings Inc. and Filinvest Land Inc.

Palafox mentioned SRP in his presentation during a conference, “Dredging and Land Reclamation 2012,” in Singapore, which ran from Oct. 2 to 4.

SRP is dubbed as the “heart of the city” as it is accessible in the north through the Cebu City port and in the south through an access road in Barangay Mambaling.

In a statement sent by e-mail, Palafox said reclamation could “do the country a lot of good if done properly.”

“Reclamation, if done properly, is the solution to flooding in Metro Manila. It is the solution to tsunamis, the solution to storm surges, solution to (producing) additional prime land,” said Palafox in the presentation he made for the conference.

While some have claimed that reclamation has caused negative environmental impact such as flooding, Palafox said inefficient waste disposal and the absence of flood-mitigating infrastructure were the primary causes of floods in urban areas.

“The Philippines has the world’s third longest waterfront but we don’t use our waterfront properly. We don’t use them as front doors to development but as outhouses where garbage is thrown,” he pointed out.

Palafox designed two reclamation mega projects in Dubai: the Palm Islands Resort and Map of the World. Both are acknowledged modern architectural wonders and tourism destinations.
