ILOILO CITY, Oct. 27 – Government and private employees and overseas Filipino workers (OFWs) looking for a lot or house and lot packages are the main target of the Western Visayas Housing Fair 2008 that will kick off here in Oct. 29.

Eva Marfil, regional manager of the Housing and Urban Development Coordinating Center (HUDCC) in the region, said the week-long activity is in line with the Shelter Month celebration this October.

It will showcase various housing projects of subdivision developers and items on sale or foreclosed properties of government housing agencies.

The activity seeks to raise the awareness of the public that there are housing projects that are available they can buy either on cash or installment basis.

These will include properties of the National Home Mortgage Finance Corporation (NHMFC), Pag-ibig Fund, Social Service System (SSS) and the Government Service Insurance System (GSIS).

She added that foreclosed properties of government financial institutions (GFIS) will be sold at a discounted rate.

The activity with the theme "Bakit ka Mangungupahan Pa Kung Kaya Mo namang Magkabahay Na" is now on its 5th year.

The exhibit, that will last until Nov. 4, will be held at the Robinson’s Place here. (PNA)
