In an article titled “Da Nang: Investors collect goods "catching the bottom" while waiting for the market to recover?”,the author discusses that the market is only improving.
The stagnation from the end of March 2019 marked a prolonged slow period of the real estate market in Da Nang during the second half of 2019, squeezing into early 2020. During this period, Da Nang was drowned on growth map of the real estate market. Hot spots in late 2018 and early 2019 such as Hoa Xuan, the Northwestern area of Lien Chieu district, and further away yet Hoa Vang district currently with sparse transactions, and significant price reductions as sellers try to lure investors.
The situation got even gloomier after Tet 2020, when Covid-19 arrived, the Da Nang market near froze. This scenario was expected to last for many more months when a new development suddenly appeared in April as the order to relax social distancing measures was applied. Real estate in Da Nang suddenly picked back up; transaction activities of residential real estate segment also began to be more active.
According to information provided by some local brokers, at the beginning of May 2020, many investors contacted to buy land plots in Hoa Xuan area, Cam Le district. The selling price of land plots here was once considered "bottomed" at the price point of over VND 2 billion to less than VND 3 billion, depending on location. However, before that, as soon as the social relaxation order was relaxed, there were a number of investors gathering assets in large quantities, so the price of this product was almost almost immediately increased.
Mr. Ha Nghiem, Director of Da Nang Batdongsan.com.vn said that it is true that investors have begun to make bottom-fishing moves but not many and some even want to wait for lower prices. This can explain why the market has not had many transactions, though it has improved compared to the previous time. Investment forces in Da Nang mainly come from Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City and some other provinces but most of them have not come back and have not shown their determination to invest. Investors are still outside watching and being very cautious.
We can see that the whole market now is in a standstill between buyers and sellers. The current price of Danang Real Estate has decreased significantly compared to the early 2019, but buyers still want further reductions, while sellers continue to wait for new developments. Investors have been returning to the market but still proved to be quite cautious.

Title of the next article is quite self-explanatory: “The resort real estate giant returned to the "race", the market is expected to recover quickly after the epidemic”
The resort real estate, considered the hardest-hit segment of the Covid pandemic, seems to be back on track. According to industry experts, the domestic tourism market will return in the first phase of the recovery, boosting returns for previous investors and reinstilling confidence for future investors. The success in pandemic control in Vietnam was well recognized by the world has made Vietnam emerge as a leading safe tourist destination. Therefore, the demand of Vietnam's real estate market is expected to come from many overseas Vietnamese who want to return to Vietnam to live and invest.
CVR believes the recovery of the economy and real estate in particular is a good sign of the success of Vietnam in controlling the pandemic and getting people back to work and their daily routines. CVR supports Vietnam’s initiative to encourage domestic travelers and continue to boost the resort real estate segment. We can also confirm a recent increased interest from overseas Vietnamese investors.

In recent news from VTV: “Hai Van Tunnel 2 to be completed 4 months ahead of schedule”
The article mentioned promising news that 95% of the Hai Van Tunnel 2 project has already been completed. Hai Van Tunnel Project Management Board said that at the end of September, the project will be completed and put into operation, instead of the previous plan for December this year.
The project of expanding the Hai Van road tunnel with a total investment more than VND 7,200 billion, including repairing and upgrading the existing Hai Van tunnel, which is Hai Van 1 tunnel and expanding the current refuge tunnel into the Hai Van 2 tunnel.
We believe the project would contribute to promoting traffic capacity through Da Nang and Thua Thien Hue Province, thereby, eliminating traffic congestion points on the national arterial roads, helping to reduce operating and maintenance costs of Hai Van Tunnel.  In CVR opinion, the project will shorten the distance from the international airport and shipping port of Da Nang and reduce logistic costs for manufacturer’s based in Hue and likely encourage investment into newly formed industrial zones on the north side of the tunnel.

Next article we find attention worthy, “Foreign investors are cautious about the Real-estate market because of Covid-19”
As reported by Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) Việt Nam, foreign investors' investment plans were interrupted even though they have a strong capital and wide range of investment optoin. Nearly all transactions slowed down in the first quarter of the year, but there are still successful deals that came from very wise investors who are aware of risks and market demands. They are seeking a high efficiency investment or expanding investment list in different property sectors, with industrial real estate receiving a lot of attention from foreign investors as well as existing villas for sale in Da Nang or Hoi An and new projects. For the new investor groups, they will have a more introverted strategy. Most big investments will be held in this pandemic crisis because investors would like to consider and revalue carefully and only invest on the market that they are well known for.
Capital Manager at JLL Viet Nam, Ms. Khanh believes that foreign investors shall keep the presence in Viet Nam and observe the chance for blooming after Covid-19, especially, when the market is expected to be recovered at the end of 2020, beginning of 2021. The bright point in VietNam is that the government has controlled this pandemic very effectively and society has come back to normal life.
CVR property experts point out that for real-estate agency, it's important to keep good relationship with foreign investors, provide good and updated information for clients to follow up the market and make decision at the right time for the best deal.
