History

[edit]

From 1995 to 2008, DMCI Homes was headquartered in Dacon Plaza, 1728 Don Chino Roces Avenue Extension, Makati, sharing the office with DMCI and Semirara Mining Corporation. Total manpower started at around 75 employees and grew to 600, prompting the need to transfer to DMCI Homes Corporate Center at 1321 Apolinario St., Brgy. Bangkal, Makati (former Intel Building). As of 2012, DMCI Homes’ employees number at around 1,400.

DMCI Homes started commercial operations in 1999 when it constructed its first Medium-Rise Development, the Lake View Manors, in Taguig.

In 2000, the first DMCI Homes hybrid development (mid- and High-Rise Buildings in a property) (Hampstead Gardens Condominium) was constructed. It introduced the Pin Wheel Architectural Design, which optimized the flow of fresh air and ambient light into the building.

In 2004, the first themed Medium Rise Development, the Mayfield Park Residences in Rizal, was constructed. It featured Neo-Asian influences in the buildings’ architecture and landscaping.

In 2006, DMCI Homes ventured into leisure residences by constructing Alta Vista de Boracay in Malay, Aklan. In the same year, Lumiventt Design Technology was also introduced during the development of Tivoli Garden Residences, Mandaluyong.

In 2017, DMCI Homes became the Philippines' first real-estate firm to be recognized as a quadruple A contractor. The notice on DMCI Homes’ upgraded category was released last January 18 by Philippine Contractors Accreditation Board (PCAB), the implementing arm of the Construction Industry Authority of the Philippines (CIAP) under Department of Trade and Industry (DTI).[5]

In the same year, DMCI Homes was also recognized at the Dot Property Philippines Awards 2017 as Best Developer in Davao City for its first development in Mindanao - Verdon Parc,[6] and an Award of Distinction for its Corporate Website in the 23rd Communicator Awards.[7]

Cesar A. Buenaventura, eldest brother of Rafael Buenaventura, as vice chairman of DMCI Holdings, purchased P 2.769 million DMC shares (P10.80 to P11.26 per share) on April 16 and 17, 2024, as a result he now owns 6.7 million shares or P67.5 million.[8]
