The short version

Most Makati office space
is rented, not owned

Search “office space Makati” and almost everything that comes back is a lease listing. That is not an accident of the search results — it is the structure of the market. The Grade-A towers on Ayala Avenue and across BGC are held by institutions and REITs and let by the square metre per month. You occupy them; you never own them.

One Fortis Plaza is the exception this page exists to document. It is a new commercial building by DMCI Homes at 2250 Chino Roces Avenue, and four of its floors are being sold outright — ₱363,000,000 per whole floor of 1,398.20 sqm net, or ₱326,700,000 on full cash settlement. Ready for occupancy December 2027.

If you have been quoted a monthly rate per square metre and want to know what the same space costs to buy instead, the arithmetic is below — all of it, with the assumptions written out.

Price per square metre

What a Makati floor
costs per sqm

Two numbers get quoted for the same floor, and they are not interchangeable. Net area is the usable space inside your demise. Gross area adds your proportionate share of the lift lobby, toilets, shafts and service areas. Always ask which one a quoted rate refers to — the gap at One Fortis Plaza is 147.40 sqm per floor, about 10.5%.

Where you can and cannot buy

Chino Roces vs Ayala vs
BGC vs Ortigas

The honest comparison is not really about price. It is about whether the space is for sale at all. Here is what each of the four office districts actually offers a company that wants to own its head office rather than rent one.

District descriptions reflect the ownership structure of each market, not a quoted price survey. Rates move: Makati CBD leasehold space has been quoted in the region of ₱1,200–₱1,800 per sqm per month, but a current rate for a specific building should be taken from a live proposal, not from a web page. One Fortis Plaza figures are the developer’s and are confirmed at reservation. If you are holding a live lease proposal, bring it to the briefing — the ten-year buy-versus-lease model is built to be run against your actual numbers.

Why this matters more than the headline rate

Eligibility

Who can buy, and
what DMCI needs

Commercial acquisition at One Fortis Plaza is a corporate transaction, not a retail one. Every purchase is subject to evaluation and approval by DMCI Homes Project Development, and the file is assembled before reservation, not after.

Foreign-owned corporations registered with the SEC in the Philippines may acquire commercial space here, subject to the same DMCI evaluation and approval. Take independent Philippine legal counsel on the applicable ownership regulations before you reserve — that advice is not mine to give.

Payment is by spot cash (the 10% discount route), bank financing arranged with your own bank, or DMCI in-house financing. Terms for each are confirmed at briefing against your corporate profile.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions buyers ask

How much does office space cost per sqm in Makati?

At One Fortis Plaza on Chino Roces Avenue, a whole floor of 1,398.20 sqm net is listed at ₱363,000,000 — ₱259,620 per sqm of net area, or ₱234,860 per sqm of gross area. On full cash settlement a 10% discount applies, bringing the floor to ₱326,700,000, or ₱233,657 per sqm net. Closing fees are exclusive and parking slots are transacted separately.

Can you actually buy office space in Makati, or only lease it?

Both exist, but they are not equally available. The Grade-A towers on Ayala Avenue and in BGC are overwhelmingly institutionally owned and offered for lease only — you rent, you do not acquire title. Strata-titled office stock that can be bought outright is concentrated in older Ortigas and Makati fringe buildings, and comes to market as small resale suites rather than new whole floors. One Fortis Plaza is the uncommon case: a new-build commercial floor sold directly by the developer, DMCI Homes.

What is the cheapest way to buy office space in Makati?

Whole-floor acquisition on full cash settlement. At One Fortis Plaza the 10% cash discount removes ₱36,300,000 from the ₱363,000,000 list price per floor, taking the effective rate from ₱259,620 to ₱233,657 per sqm net. Bank financing and DMCI in-house financing are also available; terms are confirmed at briefing.

How big is the smallest office you can buy at One Fortis Plaza?

One whole floor — 1,398.20 sqm net, 1,545.60 sqm gross. The building is sold by the floor, not subdivided into suites, so a floor is the minimum acquisition. Four floors are available: the 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th.

Can a foreign-owned company buy commercial property in Makati?

A foreign-owned corporation registered with the SEC in the Philippines may acquire commercial real estate at One Fortis Plaza, subject to evaluation and approval by DMCI Homes. Required documents include SEC registration, BIR Certificate of Registration, a company profile and a Letter of Intent. Take independent Philippine legal counsel on ownership rules before reserving.

When is One Fortis Plaza ready for occupancy?

December 2027. Fit-out planning normally begins well ahead of turnover, so a buyer acquiring in 2026 has roughly a year of lead time to design and tender the interior build before handover.

What does the price include?

The floor is delivered as a full-floor shell with a dedicated lift lobby, male and female toilet facilities, a utility hallway and full mechanical provisions, ready for custom fit-out. List price is inclusive of VAT where applicable. Closing fees are exclusive. Parking slots are priced and transacted separately.
