1. Vietnam has officially inaugurated the Vietnam International Financial Centre (IFC) in Da Nang, marking a significant milestone in the country’s strategy to modernize its financial sector and deepen integration with global financial markets. The opening ceremony was attended by Standing Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Hoa Binh, who emphasized that the establishment of the IFC represents a concrete step in implementing major national policies approved by the Party and Government.

The centre is expected to function as a testing ground for new financial models, including digital finance, financial technology applications, and innovative trading mechanisms, while maintaining appropriate risk management and regulatory oversight. Government leaders noted that the IFC will contribute to diversifying Vietnam’s financial ecosystem, supporting economic restructuring, and enhancing the country’s competitiveness in regional and international markets. The centre is also expected to strengthen Da Nang’s role as a hub for innovation, technology, and high-value services in Central Vietnam.

   The launch of the International Financial Centre reflects Vietnam’s commitment to building a transparent, modern, and internationally connected financial environment.

3. The Future of Da Nang Real Estate – Segment Insights and 2026 Trends.

 

After a strong growth cycle followed by sharp corrections in 2025, Da Nang’s real estate market is expected to enter a new phase in 2026—more cautious, more segmented, and increasingly focused on sustainable value. Instead of broad, speculative price surges, the market will move selectively, driven by legal clarity, project quality, location, and real end-user demand. This marks a pivotal shift away from short-term speculation toward long-term, stable development.

 

Land prices are unlikely to drop sharply due to rising input costs such as land-use fees, infrastructure investment, construction materials, and the new land price framework. However, price growth will slow, with fewer sudden spikes. Areas aligned with long-term urban development—such as the Northwest (Lien Chieu–Lang Van), South Hoa Xuan, and well-developed urban zones—are expected to maintain value and liquidity. In contrast, speculative land with unclear planning or weak infrastructure may face low liquidity or localized freezes. In 2026, land investment will better suit medium- to long-term investors, while high-end apartments continue to lead the market, supported by tourism recovery, international demand, and rental investment potential.

4. FLC Group Requests to Develop Urban Area on Land of Abandoned Billion-Dong Industrial Project.

 

Tập đoàn FLC has submitted a request to the Thanh Hóa provincial authorities to carry out an urban development project called Hoàng Long Urban Area on land that was previously allocated for its FLC Hoàng Long Industrial Park — a project that was halted and revoked due to delays. Provincial officials have instructed relevant departments to review FLC’s proposal and respond by February 5, 2026. FLC stated it had already completed some land compensation and clearing on about 9.4 hectares and notes that the area has since been rezoned from industrial to urban use under current planning.

5. Da Nang 2026: A Real Estate Market Growing Smarter, Not Hotter.

 

Da Nang’s real estate market in 2026 is forecast to continue recovering but is unlikely to experience a widespread boom. Growth will be more selective, depending on location, product quality, and legal transparency rather than speculative momentum. Key drivers include the city’s strategy to develop as an international financial hub, the formation of a free trade zone, and the steady revival of tourism and services. Capital is expected to flow toward projects with clear legal status, reliable construction progress, and real rental demand. Investors are becoming more cautious, focusing on long-term value and cash-flow potential instead of quick flipping. As a result, prices are projected to remain relatively stable, without sharp increases seen in previous cycles.

 

The apartment segment is likely to lead the market, supported by demand from professionals, expatriates, and long-stay tourists. Mid-range housing and social housing continue to attract end-users, while land plots in suburban and satellite areas remain appealing for longer-term investment. Resort properties are improving gradually alongside tourism growth. However, the market will be highly differentiated. Projects with weak legality, poor locations, or limited real demand may struggle with liquidity. Overall, Da Nang in 2026 offers opportunities, but success will depend on careful selection, financial discipline, and a focus on sustainable returns rather than speculation.
