Local Insights
Practical tips from someone who knows Binan.
Close to SLEX Southwoods Exit
Just 7 minutes to SLEX Southwoods exit - one of the best highway access points in the South. Closer and more direct than using Carmona exit and Governor's Drive. Quick trips to Alabang and Makati compared to other South Luzon subdivisions.
Governor's Drive as Backup
If needed, you can also route via Carmona exit and Governor's Drive. But watch out for truck traffic there - it's a major cargo route. For most trips, Southwoods exit is your better option.
Southwoods Mall Nearby
Southwoods Mall is 5 minutes away for shopping and dining. UniHealth Southwoods Hospital is close by. Shortcuts through Silca's Village get you around faster, and there are routes to Pacita, San Pedro too.

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.
