Proud to be World Class

This is the site of a revolutionary housing concept from St. Rafael Development Corporation of Iloilo. In the tradition of the many monumental firsts of Iloilo, Providence-Iloilo boasts of the only, and perhaps the Philippines' first, world-class mass housing community outside of Mega Manila.

Situated in the vicinity of Barangay Balabag, Pavia, Metro Iloilo City, it will become the center of a New Urbanism, a design movement now sweeping the globe in its reinvention of the neighborhood concept. Providence Iloilo, designed to have a balance of housing, jobs, and services, aims to fulfill every Filipino family's dream of a secure, accessible, comfortable, and sustainable home and community. It also allows for a variety of choices in home sizes, types and styles made available and affordable for the most discerning in providing for a quality family life.

Inspired by Divine Providence and enabled by careful planning and foresight, St. Rafael Development Corporation of Iloilo hopes that Providence Iloilo will be instrumental in enhancing the life of every Filipino family. Hence, it upholds its vision: "Building Communities… Transforming Lives… For the greater Glory of God."

Our Homes

Presenting quality choices to clients is a corporate value of St. Rafael Development Corporation. Thus, housing sizes range from 45A and 45B, 55A and 55B, 64.8A and 64.8B, 78.3A and 78.3B square meter expandable units with driveways and a mix of attractive types and styles of frontage, set in a spot with a well-balanced spacing of areas for pedestrians and vehicles.

The new urbanism that Providence-Iloilo hopes to promote and live up to is a reinvention of the neighborhood concept which ascertains less automobile traffic by having more people walking than driving. Thus, the discomforts and dangers of speeding and ancillary traffic within the neighborhood is avoided, making streets safer, comfortable and interesting meeting places, as it allows buildings that open onto sidewalks and front porches that invite interaction among neighbors. The concept also includes an ever-wider range of architectural styles that include non-traditional and contemporary approaches to vibrant colors, varying price levels and a range of parks connecting and distributed within neighborhoods.
