In an article titled “5 takeaways from the real estate market in 2020”, the author highlights the following points:
1) Supply and transactions plunged, selling price did not decrease: Many investors and real buyers waited for the wave of sell-offs to cut losses, but in fact the decline in prices was scattered in the secondary market, mainly investors with financial difficulties.
2) Online sales take the throne: Social distancing makes sellers and buyers unable to meet face-to-face, delaying opening events and product introduction. The pandemic is forcing brokers and businesses to change selling methods to adapt. Many brokers are providing online consulting on projects or answering customers’ legal questions through livestream to increase opportunities to reach out. This reduces costs and builds personal reputation.
3) Lowest real estate interest in 3 years: Although the amount of information posted has remained stable, the interest in real estate searchers decreased by 9% compared to 2019. This is the strongest decline in 3 years, since 2018.
4) Home loan interest rates fell sharply: The economy was in crisis because of Covid-19, however, both deposit rates and lending rates at banks fell sharply. The reason is that the crisis did not come from within the economy, but from the short-term impact of the pandemic that caused the breakdown of supply chains, freezing business activities. Instead of investing, people choose to deposit money in banks as a shelter to avoid risks. Credit surplus forced banks to lower deposit interest rates, leading to cooling interest rates
5) Apartments are more popular than homes: The demand for housing is increasing while housing prices are increasing continuously. Many people, especially young customers, are gradually turning to apartments.
Having a quick look back at the real estate market in 2020 through this article, investors can gain perspective on the outlook for 2021.

The title of the next article is quite self-explanatory: “The biggest fluctuation segments of Real Estates Market due to Covid-19”
In 2020, Covid-19 caused fluctuations to various real estate segments that do not follow the laws of the market.
Resort real estate paralyzed, series of hotels for sale
Social distancing, coupled with cancellations of international flights, paralyzed resort real estate. With no foreign tourists, accommodation facilities wavered. A series of hotels were forced to close following the two outbreaks. A report dated September 3, 2020 of the Hanoi Department of Tourism said that by the end of August, there were up to 950 accommodation establishments shutting down. By September 2020, the City Tourism Department of Da Nang said that out of more than 1,000 accommodation establishments in the area, about 250-260 hotels, apartments and villas were for sale.
Private houses, townhouses for rent, reduced price
Private houses and townhouses in big cities like Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, especially in busy areas, always hold the prime position, and only increase in price, never decrease. However, after two waves of Covid, many industries failed making leasing difficult. Many landlords had to reduce rents to find tenants or sell.
Industrial real estate welcomes golden opportunity, booming demand
The US-China trade war and the additional resonance of Covid-19 created advantages for Vietnam’s industrial real estate, giving cities like Da Nang the opportunity to welcome a series of giants in the retail and manufacturing industries looking for a new playground.

The next article we find attention worthy questions “Why do Vietnamese people prefer to build a house rather than buy an apartment?”
1) The house is one’s own, the apartment is shared.
Single family homes make people feel more secure because they own 100% of the property. Homeowners can build, repair, or design the interior to their own accord without consulting or obtaining approval from the local authority or the investor (except for some areas with regulations on height).
2) Buying a house is “a hundred year story”
Buying a house is a long-term investment, and an asset to pass on to your children or grandchildren. The transfer of a house avoids complicated and cumbersome procedures, and the property value will be kept stable or increased in the future, without worrying about devaluation.
3) “An inch of land is worth an ounce of gold”
As an agricultural country, since ancient times, ” An inch of land is worth an ounce of gold” has become a common concept of many generations of Vietnamese people. Many people even measure the enemy’s wealth based on the number of land plots they own. “Buying gold makes a loss, buying earth makes a profit”. Most Vietnamese people believe that pouring money into real estate is always safe because people will increase but the land cannot, so it will be more valuable as time goes on.
Our experience, highly regarded reputation, and strong legal knowledge keeps us at the forefront of the real estate industry. Thinking about building a home? Questions about the new construction process? The CVR team is here to help!
