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.

Real estate highlights: Stay cautious with higher-risk products; market signals on prices, regulations, and project progress across major locations

Amid market fluctuations, risk-management themes stand out. The collected information notes that international experience suggests investors should not “prioritize” risky approaches in real estate at any cost; instead, emphasis should be placed on projects that are more likely to be completed and on arrangements that help ensure transaction reliability. In parallel, guidance on choosing short-term, safer options is referenced, including considerations around savings deposits versus longer-term strategies with higher uncertainty. The updates also highlight the growing importance of climate-related risk: a conclusion from policy guidance stresses that development should support resilience against changing weather and climate impacts.

In Vietnam, regulatory and market updates point to continued attention on legal procedures and local management. Hanoi is mentioned with a new framework for handling “surplus land” after road construction or land acquisition for projects, emphasizing coordination with residents and stronger control over construction order. On pricing, the area around Kim Lien Hotel is described with notably high asking levels: some listings are above 350 million VND per m2, and certain spots are reported to reach around 1 billion VND per m2. Related to the Kim Lien cluster, information about two towers reaching 568m with an investment estimate of 3 to 3.5 billion USD is cited, alongside reference pricing for apartment rentals starting from 800,000 VND per night. Meanwhile, in infrastructure-linked real estate, Lâm Đồng’s Song Mỹ 1 industrial park is described as having recently started handover of 113ha (with reference to a timeline starting from 2022) and mentions three large projects with total capital around 5.4 billion USD on the ground. For Ho Chi Minh City, compensation price ranges for the Metro Bến Thành - Cần Giờ project are quoted, from just above 31.2 million VND per m2 up to a highest level of 61 million VND per m2 in Nhả Bè.

Beyond pricing and regulation, project and corporate activity also appears across the news set. VietinBank is reported to plan a transfer transaction involving eight towers at Ciputra to an enterprise in the real estate sector. Additional updates mention Vingroup’s development-related information tied to a VinFast ecosystem area, and branding changes with a new logo rollout referenced as taking effect from 15/8. In the resort segment, Noble Palace Ha Long is described with a themed, master-plan style approach for a broader urban lifestyle model. On the global side, Japan’s Tokyo office rental market is noted to be at the highest level in 30 years, with limited supply described as sustaining upward pressure on costs.
