P30.22B in Q1 Pag-IBIG home loans disbursed

Pag-IBIG Fund released P30.22 billion in home loans in the first quarter of 2025, marking an 8-percent increase — or more than P2 billion — compared to the P28.09 billion issued during the same period last year, officials announced Wednesday.

“The strong performance of Pag-IBIG Fund in the first quarter underscores its continued commitment to providing affordable housing opportunities for Filipino families,” said Department of Human Settlements and Urban Development Secretary Jose Rizalino L. Acuzar, who also chairs the 11-member Pag-IBIG Fund Board of Trustees.

“As we sustain progress in home financing alongside the growing momentum of the Pambansang Pabahay para sa Pilipino (4PH) Program, we heed President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr.’s call to uplift the lives of our fellow Filipinos by ensuring access to dignified shelter,” he said.

According to Pag-IBIG Fund CEO Marilene C. Acosta, the loan releases enabled 20,315 members to acquire their own homes between January and March this year.

Acosta also emphasized the Fund’s continuing support for the government’s 4PH program. Under this initiative, Pag-IBIG provides financing not only to individual buyers but also to developers, contractors, and local government units for the construction of housing projects.

In the first quarter alone, the agency released P987.91 million under the program, benefiting 669 members and their families.

“We are grateful to our members and stakeholders for their continued trust and support for our programs,” Acosta said.

“Our performance in the home loan front demonstrates not only our financial strength, but also our unwavering commitment to make homeownership more accessible to Filipino workers,” she added.

Pag-IBIG Fund said it remains focused on providing affordable and reliable housing programs that help build stable and dignified lives for its members. TDT
