Metrobank Home Loan for OFWs


To have a house to call your own is one of many goals why Overseas Filipino Workers (OFWs) choose to work abroad in spite of hardship and homesickness.  To have a house for a family is also a reason why many Filipinos are working hard locally. A house is a symbol or product of our hard work.  For those who are eager to have a house, aside from Pag-IBIG or SSS, there are banks who offer housing loan up to 25 years also like Metro Bank.
