Joseph Lagua Jr.

I am a Unit Manager at Sun Life, where I lead a team of talented financial advisors. I'm passionate about helping my advisors grow their careers and achieve success. I provide coaching, mentorship, and training to ensure they can deliver exceptional financial advice to our clients.

I help individuals and families understand their financial needs and goals, and recommend personalized insurance solutions from Sun Life to protect their future.

As part of Federal Land & Nomura Real Estate Global, I lead and mentor a team of property specialists in delivering high-value real estate solutions that blend Japanese innovation with Filipino sensibility. My role involves:

- Guiding a team to meet sales goals through collaboration, training, and client-focused strategies.
- Helping clients find the right property by understanding their needs and presenting developments that fit their lifestyle and investment plans.
- Driving recruitment and development of real estate professionals, empowering them with the tools and knowledge to succeed.

I believe real estate is more than transactions, it’s about building trust and long-term relationships.
