New real estate fintech ecosystem, led by the Reelist8 PH Development Corporation, to be unveiled at PH Startup Week with DOST PCIEERD.

MANILA, Philippines – October 28, 2025 – Reelist8, a Philippine financial technology company for the real estate sector, today announced a direct solution to the nation’s housing affordability crisis with the launch of its AI-powered ecosystem, a new path for Filipinos to own a home for as little as 0.5% equity.

Reelist8 will officially launch the ecosystem at its landmark summit, “Unlock Reelist8 – Housing Liquidity in the Age of AI: Affordable Homeownership thru Technology,” on November 14, 2025 at Acceler8 Legazpi, Makati City.

The ecosystem’s proprietary AI directly enables its most groundbreaking offering: an innovative financing product that creates a path to homeownership for as little as 0.5% equity for qualified buyers, subject to terms and approval.

Reelist8 is one of the top funded startups that received the prestigious Startup Grant Fund from DOST-PCIEERD

The technology stack is designed to solve two of the industry’s biggest challenges: it empowers sellers and partners by turning idle inventory into cash-generating assets, and it provides buyers with a tangible, affordable path to a move-in ready home.

“Beyond building apps, we’ve built an actual end-to-end ecosystem that finally connects the dots for everyone in real estate,” said Marianne Dela Cruz, CEO and Chief Product Officer of Reelist8. “Our mission is to provide a clear, reliable path for more people to own a home. This ecosystem, including our new financing capabilities, is that path.”

The ecosystem includes a suite of integrated applications, such as PropertyAuctions.ph for investors and buyers to discover and win below market value deals through auctions, and Buildin, an all-in-one project management tool turning floor plans into priced takeoffs instantly for contractors and designers.

Reelist8 co-founders Marianne Dela Cruz, the real estate tech & financial strategist, and Borj de Borja, the global startup scaling expert.

“This is a win-win for the entire industry,” said Borj de Borja, COO and Chief Revenue Officer. “Our ecosystem unlocks value for our bank and developer partners, empowers professionals with world-class tools, and, most importantly, provides real, accessible opportunities for homebuyers. We are creating a more efficient and liquid real estate market for everyone.”

The summit, held in partnership with Philippine Startup Week, will feature keynotes from Reelist8 leadership about spotting deals in foreclosed assets and in live auctions, as well as DOST PCIEERD. It will also host a celebrity fireside chat on investment and market trends, moderated by Ms. Anne Feo, with confirmed panelists Alma Concepcion (Real Estate Investor & Interior Designer) and Ynez Veneracion (Investor & Entrepreneur). The event is also pleased to have invited “Pambansang Wealth Coach” Chinkee Tan to join the expert panel.

Following the on-site summit, Reelist8 will host two free, specialized online workshops on November 21 and 25, 2025 to onboard global users:

PropertyAuctions.ph Demo: For investors and buyers to find and bid on exclusive properties.

PropertyAuctions.ph is the first AI-powered real estate auctions platform in the Philippines.

Buildin Demo: For contractors and designers to manage projects with 2D-3D modeling, invoicing, and team communications.

Admission to the “Unlock Reelist8” summit is free, but registration is essential as seats are strictly limited.

This is a unique opportunity for attendees to connect directly with C-Level executives, celebrities, influencers, homebuyers, media, and the industry leaders defining the future of Philippine real estate.
