Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

Avida Towers Asten sits in the heart of Arca South, Taguig-Makati's fastest-growing mixed-use district, and units here have held their value exceptionally well. If you took out your home loan two or more years ago, there's a strong chance your bank is still charging you an interest rate of 8% or higher — well above what the market now offers. Refinancing simply means replacing your existing loan with a new one at a lower rate, and with the best available rate currently at 5.99% p.a., the savings for a typical Asten unit can be substantial. Nook does all the bank comparison work for you at zero cost.

The process is straightforward. Nook submits your profile to multiple Philippine banks — including BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, RCBC, and others — and presents you with the best offer available based on your loan balance, remaining term, and property value. Because Avida Towers Asten is a well-documented, developer-grade condominium in a prime location, banks tend to look favourably on applications from Asten owners, which means you're well-positioned to qualify for competitive rates. If you own a unit at a similarly premium BGC address, you may also want to explore refinancing options for Arya Residences BGC to see how the numbers compare.

Many Asten owners assume refinancing is complicated or that the savings won't justify the effort. In reality, on a 3,000,000 loan with 20 years remaining, moving from 8.50% to 5.99% saves nearly 4,000 pesos every single month. Over the life of the loan, that's over 700,000 pesos back in your pocket. Nook handles the paperwork, coordinates with your chosen bank, and keeps you updated every step of the way — so you can focus on enjoying your home rather than managing your lender.

Common questions

What Avida Towers Asten homeowners ask us.

Can I refinance my Avida Towers Asten condo loan even if I originally borrowed from a Pag-IBIG or developer in-house scheme?

Yes, you can refinance out of a Pag-IBIG or developer in-house loan into a commercial bank loan through Nook. In many cases, these original financing arrangements carry higher effective rates or stricter terms, and switching to a bank loan at 5.99% p.a. can produce significant savings. Nook will assess your current loan details and identify the best refinancing path available to you.

How much equity do I need in my Asten unit to qualify for refinancing?

Most banks require that your outstanding loan balance does not exceed 70% to 80% of your property's current appraised value — known as the loan-to-value or LTV ratio. Given the appreciation of properties in the Arca South area, many Asten owners find they now have sufficient equity to qualify comfortably. Nook can give you a quick initial assessment before you commit to anything.

How long does the refinancing process take for a condo unit like Asten?

From application to loan release, the refinancing process typically takes four to eight weeks, depending on how quickly documents are submitted and how the bank's appraisal and credit review proceed. Nook actively follows up with the bank on your behalf to keep things moving as efficiently as possible. You'll receive regular status updates throughout the process.

What documents will I need to prepare for a condo refinance?

You'll generally need your property title (CCT), tax declaration, latest real property tax receipt, proof of income (payslips or ITR), government-issued ID, and your existing loan statement of account. If the unit is tenanted, some banks may also ask for a copy of the lease agreement. Nook provides a complete personalised checklist so you know exactly what to prepare from day one.

Is Nook's service really free, and how does it make money?

Yes — Nook's service is 100% free to borrowers. Nook earns a referral fee from the bank once your loan is successfully released, similar to how a traditional mortgage broker operates. This means Nook's incentive is fully aligned with getting you approved at the best possible rate, not with charging you fees upfront.

Every month you wait costs you ₱3,947.
