Filinvest to wind down construction arm as it shifts to third-party contractors
Filinvest Development Corp. and Filinvest Land, Inc. are moving to shut down their jointly owned construction company by the end of 2026 as the group retools how it supports real estate expansion. The change is tied to wider residential township and industrial park development plans, particularly along the Luzon Economic Corridor, and the companies say it does not materially affect their finances.
Highlights
- Dreambuilders Pro, Inc., 55% owned by Filinvest Development Corp., will cease operations on Dec. 31, shifting construction to third-party contractors.
- Filinvest's real estate business net income rose 76% to P2.6 billion and revenues increased 13% to P15.5 billion in the first half of 2026.
- On Tuesday, FDC shares declined 4.75% to P3.81 while FLI shares gained 2.94% to 70 centavos after the construction arm closure announcement.
Closure plan and contractor shift
According to BusinessWorld, as disclosed in separate Philippine stock exchange filings on Tuesday, Dreambuilders Pro, Inc. will cease operations effective at the close of business on Dec. 31 after its board approved the move on Nov. 10.Filinvest said it will rely on third-party contractors to grow its real estate business instead of keeping an in-house construction arm. The group said the change supports expansion in provincial residential townships and industrial park projects, while allowing it to tap a broader network of construction service providers nationwide.
Filinvest Development Corp. owns 55% of Dreambuilders Pro, while Filinvest Land holds the remaining 45%. The companies said the closure of the construction unit will not have a material financial impact on either parent firm.
