Lancaster Cebu Condotel releases Buy to Let Investment Packages for
serious real estate investors

A leading property investment marketing company believes the
Philippines is one of the best places to buy rental income property at
the moment.

The current economic environment in the US and Europe has left
investors wary about where to put their money due to recession and
high inflation, according to Beth Collingz, overseas sales director of
PLC International, lead marketing partners for Pacific Concord
Properties Lancaster brand of condo hotel developments in the
Philippines.

US and European economic woes are affecting a key sector of the
Philippines residential property market but it is hoped the shortfall
will soon be picked up by increasingly affluent Filipinos seeking
investment opportunities as well as new overseas investors. The number
of Philippines properties being bought by Filipinos based in the US
and other countries has began to fall because of the global credit
crunch. 'It is a blow but not significant as there are new investment
clients out there and we do not focus on the US as a sole marketplace
for our sales,' said Collingz. 'Many new investors are looking to
replace failed pension plans and other future saving schemes with a
solid investment in real estate. Many are looking for investments that
will give them an income for retirement. Savvy investors are now
looking for a more solid investment with potential for monthly income
and Philippine Condo Hotel investments are ideal because Hotel rates
in the Philippines are the same if not more expensive than those in
the US but the entry level to purchase real estate is only about 10%
of what you would have to pay for a Studio in Manhattan,' she added.

There are also indications that the Russians and other Oil and Gas
rich former Eastern Block Countries may take up some of the slack.
First-time Russian overseas buyers are now looking at South-East Asia
and particularly the Philippines. According to statistics from the
Philippines Department of Tourism, the country was able to attract
some 12,000 Russian visitors last year. Many institutional investors
are moving away from Dubai and Gulf States as real estate prices
continue to collapse and the expected tourism boom failed to fully
materialize.

Overall visitor numbers to the Philippines are growing. Airlines are
reporting record numbers. For example, the country's flagship
Philippine Airlines registered the highest number of international
passengers ever last year. Despite the current economic crisis in many
parts of the World, Hotel developers in Manila, Cebu and Central
Visayas region have poured in 50 billion pesos worth of new
developments over the past 12 months.

Most interest for real estate investments are in condominiums and
apartment hotel complexes.

The Philippines remains undiscovered as far as British and many
European investors are concerned. Yet because of its close links to
the US, English is widely spoken and it is well regarded for its night-
life, beaches and scuba diving.

'Buying property here is easier than many people think and investment
from overseas is growing, especially in the resort areas of Cebu and
Manila itself where rental potential is good.' However, anyone
considering Philippine Real Estate Investments should move now and
lock in at current price levels said Collingz whose Lancaster Condo
Hotel brand offer the security of International Standards of Trust
Account Escrow Banking facilities for all buyers' payments.

We now have several 'Buy-to-Let Investor' units available at our Cebu
Condotel development for serious investors said Collingz. Lancaster
Cebu Resort Residences located a few minutes from Mactan-Cebu
International Airport in Cebu, Philippines is now accepting
Reservations for Studio and Two Bedroom Suites adopting International
