Daily real estate briefing: Rising supply, slower apartment price growth and strong social housing demand

The real estate market continues to see notable developments as supply rises sharply after a prolonged period of compression. Nearly 100,000 products have been introduced to the market, raising concerns about oversupply, although liquidity at many new projects shows that demand for quality products remains. In Ho Chi Minh City, apartment price growth is slowing as supply improves and purchasing power weakens, while forecasts suggest that a significant correction could emerge between 2028 and 2030. Hanoi is also expected to enter a period of adjustment and clearer market segmentation over the next two years. In the social housing segment, more than 12,000 people registered to compete for 750 apartments, highlighting strong demand while developers continue to face obstacles related to capital, profit margins, procedures and land funds. In Me Linh, the Minh Duc social housing project includes 612 apartments, of which 551 are expected to be offered for sale at an estimated price of nearly ...

Real estate and housing daily highlights: apartment price shifts, listing scams, planning updates and financial notes

This week, Vietnam’s housing market continued to show multiple signals across Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City. In the apartment segment, several areas in Hanoi were reported to experience price decreases, while information about compensation/settlement progress for land at certain large projects also drew attention from buyers. Planning-related updates were also discussed, including Hanoi’s plan to develop roughly 35,200 social housing units across 93 projects, but only more than 3,500 units are mentioned as being under construction, with most supply expected to be implemented in the initial investment preparation phase. In Ho Chi Minh City, infrastructure and urban development updates were noted, such as a 35-story tower project in the Chợ Gà – Gòa Gạo area after renovation, with a planned height of 135m; related updates also mentioned changes in assignment for work concerning eight land lots in Thủ Thiêm following an official decision.

At the same time, several pieces emphasized risks and key precautions when participating in real estate transactions. A specialist discussed the potential effect of home loans and suggested that, with proper calculation and safe usage, borrowers may optimize their financial plan. Other content clarified that the “expiration of apartment use term” does not automatically mean owners must carry out procedures as a formality, but rather focuses on response approaches when safety can no longer be assured or when renovation is required according to approved planning. There was also a warning about misinformation on social media: Tam Bình ward authorities (Ho Chi Minh City) warned that a post circulating claims about “46 land plots” after the Thủ Đức wholesale market with a listed price of 135 million VND per plot contains inaccurate content. In addition, coverage on condominium disputes pointed to how missing consensus among parties can make it harder for the board and residents to protect rights. Beyond real estate, some news touched on daily living costs, noting that negative shifts could quickly affect everyday household spending, and included practical reminders regarding food and health when choosing what to buy and consume.

As demand for information rises, Ho Chi Minh City is rolling out the publication and updating of data across multiple sectors, including planning and construction information, so that individuals and organizations can access and use it. At the same time, the market also saw warnings about risks and legal disputes. In Tam Binh Ward (HCMC), authorities cautioned that a social media post claiming to sell 46 plots of land after an “opening” is inaccurate. Separately, concerns around shared-ownership conflicts were highlighted, noting that uncertainty in legal implementation and management authority can increase the risk of disputes between residents and related operators.

Real Estate News Brief: Credit, Infrastructure and Supply Enter a New Phase

The real estate market continues to see notable developments, ranging from credit policy and land regulations to changing buyer behavior. As Hanoi home prices have climbed so high that even high-income earners are becoming cautious, experts have proposed classifying real estate credit risks instead of applying blanket restrictions. Under this approach, resources should be prioritized for legally compliant projects that meet genuine housing demand. The trend of buying property for living, business, exploitation and cash flow generation is also gradually replacing speculative sentiment, while the launch of professionally developed projects is giving buyers more options. On the financial support front, Vietcombank has introduced a VND 20 trillion credit package with interest rates reduced by 1 percentage point per year, while VIB is offering a five-year fixed interest rate policy for homebuyers. In terms of management and infrastructure development, Prime Minister Le Minh Hung signed De...
