The Social Housing Finance Corporation (SHFC) has approved two new projects under the Enhanced Community Mortgage Program (ECMP), bringing the total number of beneficiary families to more than 2,500 across the country.
The ECMP forms part of President Ferdinand Marcos, Jr.’s Expanded Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino (4PH) Program, being implemented by the Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development led by Secretary Jose Ramon Aliling.
The lot acquisition for the Pagkakaisang Maralita ng Antipolo (PAMANA) Phase II Homeowners Association, Inc. in Barangay San Roque, Antipolo City, Rizal received the` greenlight from President and CEO Federico Laxa, together with members of the Credit Committee, during a session on September 4 at the agency’s head office in Makati. Also approved was Msgr. Eddie L. Eleazar Village HOA in Tagkawayan, Quezon Province.
PAMANA will benefit 93 member-beneficiaries from both the formal and informal sectors, including nurses, clerks, construction workers, delivery riders, vendors, and online sellers. Msgr. Eddie L. Eleazar Village, on other hand, is composed of 210 families, with members working as office personnel, govt employees, OFWs, teachers, farmers, and fisherfolks.
Laxa emphasized the significance of each project approval in advancing SHFC’s mission. “Our swift approval of new ECMP matters—not just as numbers, but as real opportunities for Filipino families to finally achieve safe, dignified, and sustainable communities,” he said. “Every project we approve brings us closer to realizing the vision of President Marcos that no one is left behind in housing.”
To date, 14 ECMP projects have been approved over the past month. More projects are expected to be rolled out in the coming weeks, in line with the directive of Secretary Aliling to award the lots to the initial batch of ECMP beneficiaries by October this year.
The other approved ECMP projects are Amianan CMP HOAI in Cordon, Isabela; Seattohills Neighborhood Association, Inc. in Tanay, Rizal; Centennial Sunrise HOAI and Megaville 2 HOAI in Pasig City; and Pinag-isang Magkapitbahay ng Miranda Compound HOA, Inc.

In the same session, SHFC approved the Makabagong San Juan Pambansang Pabahay Phase 1, which stands as the tallest vertical housing project under the 4PH to date. Rising 34 stories, the landmark development will provide homes to more than 1,000 families in San Juan City.
The project features commercial shops, parking facilities, a swimming pool, and a basketball court to support both livelihood and recreation for future residents. SHFC and the San Juan city government headed by Mayor Francis Zamora held a groundbreaking for this project in March this year.
