Houses in Davao, Davao Del Sur

Davao City is Mindanao's economic hub and one of the country's most affordable major property markets - a modest condo takes roughly 8-12 years of income to buy here versus 15-20 in Metro Manila CBDs. Citywide condos average about ₱185,000 per square metre, but the spread is large: premium waterfront Lanang and Azuela Cove run ₱170,000-₱260,000/sqm and Bajada (near Abreeza) ₱160,000-₱240,000, while Matina and Ma-a are mid-market (₱90,000-₱130,000) and outer Toril, Mintal and Buhangin are cheaper still. Gross rental yields are strong at roughly 5-8% (citywide ~6.5%), well above Metro Manila. Demand is driven by Davao's regional-hub status, BPO and agribusiness, and its safety reputation, with the Davao-Samal Connector Bridge (targeted 2027) lifting the north corridor.
