LECTURE ON PROPERTY DEVELOPMENT AND HLURB RULES

Going into the business of Property development involves a series of critical decision-making stages that requires methodical studies and analysis without which, success becomes a hit or miss game of chance. Prospective developers should watch out for pitfall and traps and be aware of the governing rules covering, among others, plans, standards, permits, licenses and reportorial requirements. As an example, it becomes a very expensive learning experience if it would be found out later that the plans prepared do not conform to the prescribed standards.
In this regards, URBAN Institute of Real Estate is inviting upcoming and current developers, professionals and property owners to a seminar on Property Development and Housing and Land Use Regulatory Board (HLURB) rules and regulations that it will conduct on May 27, 1:30 to 6:00PM at the Maximo Function Room, Max’s Restaurant, 2nd Level, Gateway Mall, Araneta Center, Cubao, Quezon City.
