The Pag-IBIG Fund is offering more than 20,000 housing units from over 45 developers at the Mindanao Housing Fair 2026, which opened Thursday at the SMX Convention Center in Davao City.
The two-day event features affordable financing options and special prices under the government’s Expanded Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino (Expanded 4PH) Program.
It follows similar housing fairs in Metro Manila and the Visayas in October.
Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development Secretary and Pag-IBIG Fund Board Chair Jose Ramon Aliling said the Expanded 4PH Program aims to make decent and affordable housing accessible to more Filipino families nationwide.
“Following the successful housing fairs in Metro Manila and the Visayas in October, we are now bringing more housing choices, affordable Pag-IBIG financing and special prices to our kababayans in Mindanao,” he said.
“This is a national housing program, and we want Filipino families, wherever they may live, to have a real opportunity to own a home. We are grateful to our partner developers for joining us in each leg of the housing fair and helping bring these opportunities closer to more Filipinos,” he added.
Pag-IBIG Fund Chief Executive Officer Marilene Acosta urged members in Mindanao to visit the fair and explore the available housing and financing options.
Qualified buyers of socialized housing under the Expanded 4PH Program can avail themselves of a subsidized interest rate of 3 percent, while housing loans of up to PHP10 million carry promotional rates of 4.5 percent and 5.75 percent per annum, she said.
“Our teams will also be there to personally guide our members, answer their questions and help them find a home that best suits their family’s needs and budget. With these special rates available only until the end of the year, we hope more of our members can take this opportunity to move closer to owning a home,” Acosta added.
From January to October 2026, Pag-IBIG financed 78,410 housing units worth PHP127.44 billion, a 15 percent increase in the number of homes financed over the same period in 2025.
Of the total, 12,969 were socialized housing units worth PHP14.40 billion for minimum wage earners and low-income families.
The number of socialized housing units financed increased 175 percent from the same period last year. (PNA)
