Brand Equity and Value

Security
Access to all elevators at The Rise requires security key card access which will prevent outsiders from going up and down the building. Furthermore, all three towers are monitored by a 24-hour CCTV surveillance cameras.
Building Features and Amenities

On top of earning from monthly rent, investors could benefit from capital gain by the time they sell their property on a future date.
Cons
Parking Ratio
There is a limitation with regards to the number of available parking spaces at The Rise Makati. Considering the fact that there are as much as 3,044 units at The Rise, the total number of parking spaces in three (3) basement parking is only 746. Because of limited supply, the cost of renting a parking space could be a little higher compared to the cost of rent a parking space in other nearby residential condos. Despite having to pay a little extra for the parking space, The Rise is still considered as one of the most lucrative investment properties in Makati today.
As stated under The Condominium Act of the Philippines (R.A. 4726), foreign nationals are allowed to acquire condominium units as long as they make up no more than 40% of the total shareholdings of all of foreigners in a condominium corporation. Due to the ownership quota set on foreign investors, non-Filipinos who wish to invest at The Rise should opt to purchase a "foreign-owned" resale unit to avoid having problems when it comes to the transfer of title. Now that we know that foreigners can own a condo in the Philippines, below is the list of resale units by the unit owners:
The Rise 1 bedroom unit with big balcony for sale. 31.64sqm. 35th floor, East wing facing amenities. With clean title. *Foreign-owned unit. **Never been occupied. Php8.1M
