Twenty years. 183,000 units delivered. Countless lives transformed. It’s more than a milestone. SMDC’s commitment to building The Good Life has changed the lives of countless residents, sellers, employees, partners and community members. From the beginning, the vision was clear: a focus on transformation, not just in terms of real estate, but in the personal growth and success of every individual who becomes part of the SMDC story.
Ana Carpio: A life transformed by family, faith, and purpose
For 17 years, Ana Carpio has witnessed remarkable changes not just in SMDC, but in herself. As vice president for sales strategy, Ana has watched many employees, sellers and buyers find a sense of purpose through their work at SMDC. “When I first joined SMDC, I wanted to be part of something that made a real difference,” Ana shares.
That difference is rooted in faith and family values, something Ana cherishes about SMDC’s culture. “We are a family here,” she says, adding that it’s this sense of belonging that has shaped her growth. Through her work, Ana has seen countless lives change, whether it’s through an employee gaining confidence, a seller achieving their dream or a buyer stepping into their first home. “It’s been a privilege to be part of so many journeys,” she reflects.
Jennifer Chuason: From investor to financial freedom
Jennifer Chuason’s journey with SMDC is a testament to the financial freedom and opportunities the company offers. With 26 units in her portfolio, Jennifer has found more than just investment opportunities; she’s built a future she never dreamed possible. “When I first started investing in SMDC, I had no idea how much it would change my life,” Jennifer admits.
She’s not just an investor; Jennifer embodies the power of financial independence. “I’ve tried other properties, but nothing compares to the rental yields I get from SMDC. It’s like finding a hidden treasure,” she says. For Jennifer, each unit represents more than just a financial asset — it’s a stepping stone to better opportunities for her and her family.
Now, Jennifer has become a mentor, encouraging fellow investors to take that first step toward financial security and independence.
Princess Dulalia: From struggle to success
Princess Dulalia’s story is one of resilience, prayer, and perseverance. What started as a part-time opportunity at SMDC turned into a fulfilling career and a chance to transform her family’s future. “SMDC wasn’t my first choice — I was looking for an HR position. But I prayed for guidance, and SMDC answered,” says Princess.
Joining SMDC during the launch of Joy Residences, Princess found her calling as a Property Specialist. “It was the perfect timing. I learned so much, and my team helped me grow,” she reflects. Today, she’s one of the top sellers at SMDC, proudly supporting her family’s future.
Princess’s success is a result of her hard work and unwavering dedication to her clients. “Real estate isn’t just about transactions. It’s about building lasting relationships and making a difference in people’s lives,” she says.
Sharon Torreverde: Empowering communities, empowering lives
Sharon Torreverde is proof that SMDC’s mission to build The Good Life extends beyond real estate. As part of Globe Telecom’s digital literacy program for senior citizens, Sharon has helped empower the elderly to embrace technology and stay connected to their families. “It’s so fulfilling to see seniors light up when they discover they can use technology to connect with their loved ones or explore new hobbies,” Sharon says.
This initiative, a collaboration between Globe and SMDC, reflects the company’s deeper commitment to uplifting communities. “SMDC is about more than just homes — it’s about creating opportunities and making life better for everyone,” Sharon adds.
The Good Life: SMDC’s legacy of transformation
Twenty years of building homes, fostering relationships and empowering individuals have made SMDC a beacon of hope for so many. As the company continues to grow, it’s clear that this journey is about far more than just brick and mortar. For Ana, Jennifer, Princess, Sharon and countless others, SMDC has become a place of personal transformation and growth.
