Why this matters

Your bank is counting on you not checking.

Jazz Residences is one of SMDC's most sought-after addresses in Makati CBD, sitting steps from the Ayala Avenue business district and the MRT-3 Buendia station. Its central location makes units here highly valuable — and that same value gives you strong refinancing leverage. Many Jazz Residences owners originally financed through developer-linked bank packages that carry rates of 8.50% to 10%, which made sense at the time but can now cost you significantly more than necessary over the life of your loan. If you're curious how your rate compares to what other Makati condo owners are paying, check out our guide to the best home loan rates in Makati.

Refinancing a condo loan in the Makati CBD has some specific considerations worth understanding. Lenders view prime Metro Manila addresses like Jazz Residences favourably — lower loan-to-value risk and strong resale demand typically translate into better refinancing terms. Nook works with leading Philippine banks including BDO, BPI, Metrobank, Security Bank, RCBC, and UnionBank to find the most competitive rate for your exact unit and remaining balance. We handle everything from document preparation to bank coordination at absolutely no cost to you as the borrower.

Whether you bought your Jazz Residences unit as a home or an investment, refinancing now can meaningfully change your monthly cash flow. On a 3,000,000 peso loan balance with 20 years remaining, moving from 8.50% to 5.99% saves over 4,500 pesos every month — that's more than 810,000 pesos across the remaining loan term. BGC condo owners are making similar moves; if you own property on both sides of EDSA, you might also find our article on refinancing Alveo High Park BGC condos useful for comparison.

Common questions

What Jazz Residences condo owners ask us.

Can I refinance my Jazz Residences condo loan even if I originally got it through SMDC's in-house financing?

Yes, absolutely. Many SMDC buyers started with in-house or developer-facilitated financing, which often carries higher rates than bank loans. Once your title has been transferred and the loan is active, you are free to refinance with any accredited bank — and Nook can help you find the best rate available for your situation.

How does Nook's service work and what does it cost me?

Nook is a fully digital mortgage broker — we compare offers across multiple Philippine banks and manage the paperwork on your behalf from start to finish. Our service is 100% free to you as the borrower; we are compensated by the bank when a loan is successfully placed, so there is no fee, no hidden charge, and no obligation to proceed.

What documents do I need to refinance my Jazz Residences unit?

Typical requirements include your Condominium Certificate of Title (CCT), latest Statement of Account from your current lender, proof of income (payslips or ITR for employed borrowers, financial statements for self-employed), and a valid government-issued ID. Nook will give you a personalised checklist once you submit your initial details.

Will refinancing affect my rental income if I lease out my Jazz Residences unit?

Refinancing does not affect your right to lease or manage your unit — you remain the registered owner throughout the process. In fact, lowering your monthly amortisation improves your net rental yield, making the investment more profitable. Just ensure your bank is aware the property is tenanted, as this may be required for disclosure.

How long does the refinancing process take for a Makati CBD condo?

For a condominium like Jazz Residences in a prime Makati address, the process typically takes 4 to 8 weeks from application to loan release, depending on how quickly documents are submitted and how fast the bank's appraisal and legal teams move. Nook actively follows up on your behalf to avoid unnecessary delays.

Every month you wait costs you ₱4,505.
