Shang Properties Inc. has welcomed the first resident of Shang Residences at Wack Wack.

This seasoned developer recently handed over the keys to the unit owner, marking a significant milestone not only for the homebuyer, but also for the company.

After all, this 50-story luxury tower, situated across the iconic Wack Wack Golf and Country Club in Mandaluyong City, is the first Shang Properties project to be turned over after the pandemic. This completion reflects the company’s resilience and its commitment to deliver premium, quality residences despite the headwinds.

“What makes (this turnover) more extraordinary is that Shang Residences at Wack Wack is the one that faced the challenges of lockdowns, planning through uncertainties and continuing construction activities regardless of limitations,” explained Ma. Rochelle S. Diaz, executive vice president for Commercial at Shang Properties.

Fulfillment of a promise

In an e-mail interview, Diaz explained that unit turnovers like this one carry a deeper meaning for both Shang Properties and its clients, as these symbolize new beginnings. Completions, like that for Shang Residences at Wack Wack, allow the company to deliver its promise of providing premium communities, where residents can live and enjoy the life they have dreamed of.

“Handing over residential units to our clients represent more than the completion of the building. It symbolizes new milestones, beginning of new stories for both Shang Properties and our residents and we are delighted to deliver and be part of that,” she said.

“This is a proud moment for us as this represents our commitment to excellence and trust we hold with our clients,” Diaz added. “This moment (is the) culmination of years of passion, dedication, and meticulous attention to detail. Each turnover signifies the fulfillment of a promise—one that is built on the foundations of elegance, craftsmanship, and the vision to create not just homes, but havens for modern living.”

New standard for turnovers

To ensure a more memorable and hassle-free turnover experience, Shang Properties has taken every step to make the transition as effortless as possible.

According to Diaz, a dedicated handover team with years of experience will guide owners through each aspect of the process, from the initial orientation to property management services.

“We make sure our residents are taken cared of with the warmth, care as we provide the highest level of service true to the brand promise of Shang. We are consistent in being world-class even in the efficiency of unit turnovers,” she said.

Diaz further disclosed that Shang Properties implements a robust quality assurance process that begins months before the actual turnover. This includes technical inspections, punch listing, and even dry runs to ensure that residents can readily enjoy their new homes with confidence the moment they receive their keys—steps to ensure a seamless transition.

Growing portfolio

As Shang Residences at Wack Wack begins to welcome its new residents, Shang Properties remains committed to its core principles of delivering luxurious spaces. This successful turnover is just the beginning of more handovers, as it has a growing portfolio of projects, all promising to further elevate luxury living in the country.

“For our next projects, we will be consistent and true to our brand promise of delivering luxurious living spaces and experiences as we continue raising the bar with the future projects. We are true to our commitment of quality, design, and unparalleled service will remain at the forefront of our future projects,” Diaz concluded.
