Vietnam remains one of Asia’s top property markets, as shown by the variety of awards that judges give to developers and designs every year.

That is according to Jules Kay, general manager of PropertyGuru Asia Property Awards and Events. At the launch of the ninth PropertyGuru Vietnam Property Awards held in Ho Chi Minh City on April 20, Kay said, "Vietnam is certainly one of the fastest-growing economies in the region, with a flourishing real estate market that still has room for growth."

We are certain that this year’s entries will reinforce developers’ commitment to quality and prove that Vietnam real estate is still among Southeast Asia’s best.

The reputation of the developer, construction credentials, space design, and sales policy are the top elements consumers take into account when seeking property, according to a Batdongsan.com.vn Consumer Sentiment Survey from early 2023. Green space, in particular, is a key trend in the desire for homeownership at present and in the future.

The survey also revealed that 68 per cent of survey respondents stated that they planned to buy property in the next year. The more properties they hold, the more inclined they are to acquire more.

The proportion of consumers planning to buy property in the near future is 46 per cent for those who do not own a home, 66 per cent for those who already own a property, and up to 87 per cent for those who own three properties.

Newly developed properties in the price range of $108,000-217,000 are hunted most by many buyers.

Even though the current market is experiencing some challenges, Dinh Minh Tuan, branch director of Batdongsan.com.vn in the south, forecasted that the reversal signal will come approximately in Q4 or early in 2024, depending on certain conditions.

"The recovery of the market is expected to take place faster if the government's policies issued to support the real estate market penetrate more quickly and have a positive impact on market stakeholders," he said.
