Payment Terms Compared

12% Spot DP vs 5% Low Spot DP vs Home Advance

Three ways into the same unit at Calathea Place. The 5% low spot downpayment is the lightest entry cost of the year — and it hands the bank ₱253,074 more to carry, which at an indicative 8.5% over 20 years works out to about ₱2,196 more every month, or roughly ₱527,096 more paid over the term. Home Advance keeps the smaller loan, carries the lightest monthly downpayment of the three, and is the only one that gets you into the unit before the bank releases anything.

  • 12% spot DP — one payment, bank carries 88%. Move in after bank drawdown. No discount applies to a single spot payment; the 1% is tied to spreading the same 12% over 32 months, and DMCI’s standard ladder goes further — 30% down takes 4% off, 40% takes 5%, 50% takes 6%. See the full ladder.
  • 5% low spot DP — 2% discount, payable over 12 months, but the bank then carries 95%, so the amortization is the highest of the three. Chinabank or BPI only.
  • Home Advance 12% / 32 — 1% discount, downpayment over 32 months, bank carries 88%, and you can move in from month 4, before drawdown. Lowest long-run amortization.

You own the unit from Day 1 on all three — the Home Advance lease buys occupancy of a unit already in your name, not a chance to buy it later. The full three-way breakdown, computed on a real unit →

★ HOME ADVANCE · RENT-TO-OWN AVAILABLE

DMCI's selected buildings list (Cypress Towers, Illumina Residences, Royal Palm Residences, Tivoli Garden Residences, Willow Park Homes) carries a higher 4% discount under the same terms.

What Third Quarter Deals promo is available at Calathea Place?

Through October 31, 2026, Calathea Place qualifies for the DMCI Homes Third Quarter Deals (memo PD-26-07-031): a 12% downpayment spread over 32 months with a 1% discount on the unit, with the 88% balance payable via bank or in-house financing. The special discount applies to units only and cannot be combined with regular discounts; parking may follow the same promo payment term as the unit.

Do I own the unit from Day 1 under Home Advance at Calathea Place, or am I just renting it?

You are the buyer from Day 1. Home Advance at Calathea Place is not a rent-first arrangement — you reserve and sign a Contract to Sell on that specific unit before any occupancy begins, and every peso of your downpayment is equity in that purchase. The unit leaves the market the day you reserve and your price is locked at your contract price. There is no later conversion step and no separate approval needed to make you an owner, because you already are one; the only approval remaining is the bank loan on the balance, which every buyer on every payment term goes through. The Home Advance lease covers occupancy of a unit you have already bought while the balance is processed for bank drawdown, and that lease payment is not credited to the purchase — your ownership runs on the downpayment, in parallel.

What is the difference between the 12% spot downpayment, the 5% low spot downpayment and Home Advance at Calathea Place?

On Leonia 409, a 28.5 sqm 1BR at Calathea Place listed at ₱4,232,000: the 12% spot downpayment asks ₱507,840 in one payment and leaves a bank loan of ₱3,724,160. The 5% low spot downpayment needs ₱44,781 to start and ₱14,781 a month for 12 months, but leaves a bank loan of ₱3,939,992. Home Advance needs ₱44,774 to start and ₱14,774 a month for 32 months, and leaves the smallest bank loan of the three at ₱3,686,918 — about ₱2,196 a month less than the 5% route at an indicative 8.5% over 20 years.
