Filipino Homes, one of the Philippines’ largest real estate networks, has made history after being named an Elite Partner by Dugasta Properties Dubai — marking the first time a Filipino real estate marketing company has received such recognition in the United Arab Emirates.
The award was presented before a crowd of more than 7,000 attendees at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai, a venue known for hosting major international events. The recognition underscores the growing presence and credibility of Filipino professionals in the global real estate industry.
Anthony Orais Leuterio, founder of Filipino Homes and president of Leuterio Realty & Brokerage, shared the achievement in a Facebook post, describing it as a proud moment for the Filipino real estate community. “Thank you Dugasta Properties Dubai for recognizing Filipino Homes as your Elite Partner! We are proud to be the first Filipino Real Estate Marketing Company to receive this honor in Dubai,” he wrote.
Leuterio also extended his gratitude to His Excellency Yaqoob Al Ali, Executive Director and Advisor to the Office of His Highness Sheikh Juma Bin Maktoum Al Maktoum, for his trust and support toward Filipinos in the industry.
Dugasta Properties, a Dubai-based developer known for projects such as Al Haseen Residences and Moonsa Residences, has built a reputation for innovative real estate ventures and investor-friendly terms. Its collaboration with Filipino Homes signals a milestone in cross-border real estate partnerships, particularly between the UAE and the Philippines.
Filipino Homes, headquartered in Cebu City, has become a major player in the Philippine property market with more than 14,000 licensed agents and over 100 offices nationwide. The network has expanded its influence beyond local shores through global partnerships and recognitions such as this one.
“This milestone is more than just a recognition — it’s a celebration of the Filipino spirit and commitment to excellence,” Leuterio said, emphasizing the company’s mission to elevate Filipino professionals in the international property landscape.
Founded under Leuterio Realty & Brokerage, Filipino Homes has long championed accessibility, digital transformation, and inclusivity in real estate. The recognition from Dugasta Properties further cements its role as a bridge between Filipino investors and the world’s fast-growing property markets.
