CITTA ITALIA ESTIMATED SAVINGS
No commitment. No credit check. Just your numbers.
Why this matters
Citta Italia in Bacoor, Cavite is one of Crown Asia's most beloved developments — a sprawling, European-themed community where tree-lined piazzas and Mediterranean architecture make everyday living feel like a holiday. But behind the charm, many homeowners here are still locked into home loan rates of 8% to 9% or higher, often from the bank that originally financed their Crown Asia purchase. If you haven't reviewed your loan in the last two to three years, there's a very good chance you're overpaying by thousands of pesos every month.
Refinancing your Citta Italia home loan means switching your existing mortgage to a new lender offering a lower interest rate — and right now, the best refinance rate available through Nook is just 5.99% p.a. On a 3,000,000-peso loan with 20 years remaining, that's a potential monthly saving of nearly 4,850 pesos, or over 873,000 pesos across the life of your loan. Whether you own a single-family home in the Portofino or Capri clusters, or a larger lot in one of the premium enclaves, refinancing works the same way and the savings are real. Nook works with all major Philippine banks — including BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, and RCBC — to find you the lowest possible rate, and our service is completely free to borrowers.
Getting started is straightforward. Nook's team handles the paperwork, the bank comparisons, and the application process on your behalf — you simply provide your documents and we do the legwork. While Citta Italia refinancing is unique to this community's property values and loan profiles, the process is similar to what we do for condo and house-and-lot owners across the greater Metro Manila area.

Common questions
Yes, absolutely. Refinancing means moving your loan from your current lender to a new bank offering a better rate — you are not restricted to staying with the bank that originally financed your Crown Asia purchase. Nook will compare multiple banks on your behalf and identify the best available offer for your specific property and loan profile.
Most Philippine 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 (LTV) ratio. Given that Citta Italia properties in Bacoor have appreciated steadily over the years, many homeowners find they qualify comfortably. Nook can help you assess your eligibility before you apply.
The typical refinancing process in the Philippines takes between 30 and 60 days from application to loan release, depending on the bank and how quickly documents are submitted. Nook streamlines this by preparing and managing your application, reducing unnecessary delays. We'll keep you updated at every step of the process.
There are standard third-party fees involved in any refinancing, such as appraisal fees, notarial fees, and registration costs — these typically range from 30,000 to 60,000 pesos in total depending on the bank and loan size. However, Nook's mortgage brokering service is completely free to borrowers; we are paid by the bank, not by you. Your monthly savings will typically recover these one-time costs within just a few months.
The core refinancing process is the same, but house-and-lot properties like those in Citta Italia typically benefit from higher appraised values and lower LTV ratios compared to many urban condominiums, which can make qualification easier and potentially unlock even better rates. If you've been looking at how condo owners in BGC are refinancing — for example, through communities like Alveo High Park in BGC — the good news is that landed property owners in Cavite are equally well-positioned to benefit from refinancing today.
