ARYA RESIDENCES ESTIMATED SAVINGS

Why this matters
Arya Residences is one of BGC's most sought-after condominium addresses — a premium development that commands premium property values. But premium real estate doesn't have to mean a punishing home loan rate. Many Arya owners who took out their condo loans three to seven years ago are still locked into rates of 8% to 9.5% per annum, often with a bank they chose simply because it was convenient at the time. With refinancing, you can take your existing loan balance and move it to a lender offering a significantly lower rate — potentially as low as 5.99% p.a. through Nook's panel of partner banks.
A condo loan takeout for an Arya unit typically involves a loan amount in the range of 4,000,000 to 8,000,000 pesos, depending on how much of your original loan remains outstanding. At that scale, even a 1.5 to 2.5 percentage point reduction in your interest rate translates to tens of thousands of pesos in monthly savings — and well over a million pesos saved across the life of your loan. If you've previously looked into refinancing and found the process overwhelming, Nook exists specifically to simplify it. We handle bank comparisons, documentation guidance, and application coordination on your behalf, at zero cost to you. Homeowners in high-value condos like Columns Legazpi Village in Makati are going through the same process and seeing real results.
Refinancing a BGC condo does come with a few considerations worth knowing. Banks will require a fresh appraisal of your unit, and you'll want to check your existing loan contract for any lock-in period or early settlement fees. In most cases, the savings from a lower rate far outweigh these one-time costs within the first year or two. Nook's advisors can walk you through the numbers specific to your loan balance and remaining term so you know exactly what to expect before you commit to anything.

Common questions
A condo loan takeout means a new bank pays off your existing home loan and takes over as your lender — usually at a lower interest rate. For Arya Residences owners, this is a straightforward process because BGC condos are highly bankable assets that lenders are comfortable financing. You keep ownership of your unit throughout; only the bank you're paying changes.
Most major Philippine banks will refinance a BGC condominium, including BPI, BDO, Security Bank, Metrobank, RCBC, and UnionBank, among others. Each bank prices its rates differently and has varying appraisal policies for high-rise condos. Nook compares across our full panel of partner banks simultaneously so you don't have to approach each one individually.
It depends on your outstanding loan balance, remaining term, and current interest rate — but for a typical Arya unit with a loan balance of around 6,000,000 pesos, moving from 8.5% to 5.99% p.a. saves roughly 6,000 to 6,500 pesos per month. Over a 15-year remaining term, that adds up to more than 1,000,000 pesos in total interest savings. Use Nook's free calculator to get a figure based on your actual loan details.
Many Philippine bank home loans include a lock-in period — typically one to three years from drawdown — during which early settlement attracts a penalty, usually 1% to 2% of the outstanding balance. You'll need to check your original loan documents or call your current bank to confirm. If you're past your lock-in period, you can refinance freely, and Nook can help you determine whether the savings justify refinancing even if a small penalty applies.
From application to loan release, condo refinancing typically takes four to eight weeks, depending on how quickly your bank can complete the property appraisal and title verification. BGC properties generally move faster because banks are very familiar with the area and its documentation. Nook coordinates the process on your behalf to avoid unnecessary delays, and our advisors will keep you updated at every stage.
