FDI Enterprises will Launch Competition in the Real Estate Market


Many foreign invested enterprises (FDI) "jump" into the real estate market of Vietnam with the commitment that will establish foreign standards but the price can be equal, even lower than domestic enterprises. This not only brings benefits to consumers but also contribute to " cooling down" the price of real estate as the domestic enterprises "heat up" in a long time.

More choices for consumers

Recently, Oliver Brazier, CEO of EZLand Vietnam - International Investment Fund KEY SICAV SIF from Luxembourg, said that the company has had an plan to build 1,000 to 1,500 apartments every year for the next 5-8 years in Vietnam.
Project of HausNeo  in District 9

In the short term, the HausNeo project in District 9 (Ho Chi Minh City) is the first product of the company with the design inspired by European quality. It is worth mentioning that these apartments are centered on types of affordable housing.
Many comments shared that this was really a wise step of EZLand Vietnam. As forecast, consumption rate of mid-range apartments would increase rapidly from 40-50% to 60% by the end of 2017.
In fact, this is not the first foreign enterprise to build housing projects with international standards and affordable price which before that many of those from Japan, Korea, Singapore, Malaysia ... has also targeted this model. Nonetheless, the investment method of FDI enterprises is mainly the acquisition or merger, and investing in projects of domestic enterprises.
Namely, the project Flora Anh Dao (District 9) and the Mizuki Park residential area (26 ha in Binh Chanh District) have been developed by two japanese investors, Hankyu Realty and Nishi Nippon Railroad in cooperation with Nam Long Real Estate Company. The value of this deal of Flora Anh Dao (District 9) announced by Nam Long is $ 20 million; while the Mizuki Park residential area has a total investment of $ 351 million.
According to Dr. Bui Quang Tin - CEO of Bizlight Business School, the investment in offices for rent, hotels, commercial center is almost saturated, while the demand for housing in all models is very positive. Particularly, reasonable models are lacking supply. Therefore, not only Vietnamese enterprises but also from Korean, Singaporean, Japanese, Taiwanese ones are entering this market.

A positive signal for the market

According to a report of Ho Chi Minh City Real Estate Association (HoREA), in the first 10 months of 2017, the country attracted $ 28.24 billion in foreign direct investment (FDI), up 1.6 times compared with the same last year (10 months of 2016 only reached $ 17.6 billion). This is also the highest increase in 10 years.
Ho Chi Minh City alone attracted US$ 5.03 billion in FDI, leading the country twice as many as in the first 10 months of 2016. Of which the real estate sector accounted for 32.9%, ranked second only after processing and manufacturing sector (34.5%).
In addition, the amount of remittances to Ho Chi Minh City in nine months of the year also reached over $ 3.3 billion, up 6% compared to the same period in 2016; of that, about 22% of remittances are invested in real estate.
Even real estate loans was also considerably disbursed. Statistics show that up to 9 months of 2017, outstanding loans for real estate in Ho Chi Minh City accounts for about 10% of the total of the country, 6.5%. Outstanding housing loans particularly for over 10,000 individuals and households reached VND 4,740 billion, contributing to the improvement of housing for these people.
With these positive numbers, Dr.Bui Quang Tin said that this brings positive signals for the real estate market because FDI companies invest in real estate not only offices for rent, hotels and commercial centers, but also housing construction. Therefore, the attraction of FDI into real estate is very necessary.
"At present, Vietnam is targeting the real estate development of green and energy-saving, which is now being considered by foreign investors. Not only that, the investment of foreign companies also brings healthy competition in price for real estate market, the benefits to consumers as well, "added Tin.

However, according to what Dr. Tin said, to take best use of these advantages require a great deal of effort from the relevant ministries and agencies, most importantly things are transparency, improvement of the investment environment, simplification of administrative procedures, the time cut for enterprises.
