Local Insights

Practical tips from someone who knows Binan.

Carmona Exit is Your Route

Best access is via SLEX Carmona exit. Take Governor's Drive, then turn right at Congressional Drive (the intersection with Jollibee). From there it's about 5-10 minutes to Pahara. This keeps you connected to SLEX for Metro Manila trips.

Governor's Drive Trucks

Watch out for truck traffic on Governor's Drive - it's a major route for cargo vehicles. Can slow you down during busy hours. Plan your timing accordingly.

Shortcuts to Know

There's a shortcut through Silca's Village if you want to reach Southwoods Mall faster - you'll pass by UniHealth Southwoods Hospital, which is only about 10 minutes away. There are also shortcuts going to Pacita, San Pedro if you need to head that direction.

Why This Matters

The BIR zonal value is used to compute Documentary Stamp Tax (1.5%) and Capital Gains Tax (6%) when buying property. The tax base is whichever is higher: the selling price or zonal value. This protects you from under-declared transactions but means you can't reduce taxes by negotiating a lower paper price.
