DOST-Backed Reelist8 Pioneers AI-Powered Ecosystem to Make Homeownership More Affordable

Reelist8 Launches Integrated Property Applications at Philippine Startup Week

Reelist8, a DOST-backed Philippine financial technology company in the real estate and construction sector, has officially launched its AI-powered ecosystem. The platform aims to help address the country’s housing affordability challenges by enabling qualified Filipinos to own a home for as little as 0.5% equity.

Reelist8 unveiled this new technology at the Philippine Startup Week community event called Unlock Reelist8—Housing Liquidity in the Age of AI: Affordable Homeownership Through Technology at Acceler8 Legaspi, Makati City. Over 150+ business executives from various industries, sponsors, celebrities, and media guests graced the launch.

The new ecosystem incorporates integrated applications like Property Auctions (PropertyAuctions.ph) and Buildin (Buildin.com.ph). Made for buyers and investors, PropertyAuctions.ph empowers clients to discover and win below-market-value deals through auctions. Meanwhile, Buildin.com.ph serves as an all-in-one project management tool, instantly converting floor plans into priced takeoffs for contractors and designers.

“Owning a home shouldn’t be a privilege for the fortunate few; it’s a fundamental human right.” We built Reelist8 as the intelligent path to make that right a reality,” said Marianne Dela Cruz, Chief Executive Officer of Reelist8. “We at Reelist8 hope to empower more Filipinos to become homeowners through a tangible and affordable path.”

The event also featured a celebrity fireside chat moderated by Borj de Borja, Chief Operations Officer, with panelists Anna Feo (character actress, model, and product endorser), Alma Concepcion (beauty queen, real estate investor, and interior designer), and Ynez Veneracion (award-winning actress, investor, and entrepreneur). The guests shared insights on investment strategies and audience-focused marketing.

“Our goal with this new ecosystem is to keep it simple,” shared de Borja. “Every Filipino deserves access to efficient and accessible world-class tools. That’s why we’re making homeownership easier and more affordable.”

Reelist8 will host a free, specialized online workshop on November 21, 2025, to onboard global users to this new ecosystem. The PropertyAuctions.ph demo is designed for buyers and investors to locate and bid on exclusive properties. In the meantime, contractors and designers can manage projects with 2D/3D modeling, invoicing, and team communications through the Buildin.com.ph Demo.
