The South Luzon Expressway Toll Road 4 (SLEX TR4) is a massive infrastructure development designed to extend the expressway from Sto. Tomas, Batangas to Lucena City, Quezon. Once completed, this 66.74-kilometer toll road will reduce travel time significantly for motorists coming from Metro Manila to southern provinces.
🚧 As of 2024, construction is ongoing, but the Sto. Tomas to Rosario segment is nearly complete, allowing easier access to towns like Malvar, Tanauan, and Lipa — key real estate hotspots in Batangas.
Faster Travel Time: Previously 2-3 hours, now down to 90 minutes or less.
Higher Property Demand: Easier access means more people are considering Batangas as a residential or vacation home destination.
Increased Land Value: Areas near the new exit are seeing appreciation, with some lots in Lipa and Malvar jumping in price by 10-20% over the past 12 months.
Tanauan City: Close to multiple TR4 access points and industrial zones.
Lipa City: A balanced city with schools, malls, and hospitals.
Malvar: Affordable, peaceful, and very accessible via TR4.
