Since the Covid-19 pandemic in 2021, Ho Chi Minh City has overcome many difficulties to achieve impressive growth in many different industries, including the real estate sector. The fact that the real estate market has had many positive changes in the first 6 months of 2024 will continue to help boost the economy of this industry in the last months of the year.

Policy mechanisms will help the real estate market recover more and more.

According to information from the Ho Chi Minh City Real Estate Association (HoREA), the period from 2020 - 2023 is a "recession" for the entire real estate market in the country in general and Ho Chi Minh City in particular.

Mr. Le Hoang Chau, Chairman of HoREA, commented: “From the first quarter of 2023, it can be considered the 'bottom' of the real estate market, because it has to go through a series of difficulties from the world economic market and the domestic market. However, from the third and fourth quarters of 2023 to early 2024, the real estate market will gradually recover, showing that the real estate market has overcome the most difficult period.”

According to Mr. Le Hoang Chau, HoREA forecasts that the market will grow back to normal from 2025 onwards (due to the "delay" of policies and regulations issued by the state). If "supported" by important policy supports such as the Land Law 2024, Housing Law 2023, Real Estate Business Law 2023 taking effect in August 2024, the market will soon recover.

Real estate is still a channel attracting investors.

Batdongsan.com.vn's real estate market data for the first 6 months of 2024 shows that most investment channels have recorded positive signs compared to 2023. Of which, real estate is still the channel with the highest investment yield. According to Batdongsan.com.vn's price history tool, as of June 2024, the average selling price of real estate increased by 24% compared to the beginning of 2023.

Mr. Bach Duong, General Director of Batdongsan.com.vn, commented: “The Government's proposal to allow the Land Law, Housing Law, and Real Estate Business Law to take effect from August 1, 2024 is a positive signal, helping to clarify the law and speed up the recovery process of the real estate market.

The effective laws will promote more consistent and realistic land valuation, tighten requirements for investors in project development to ensure the rights of buyers, create favorable conditions for real estate ownership for overseas Vietnamese, attract more foreign investment, and enhance professionalism and transparency in the real estate brokerage community.

Ho Chi Minh City is home to many types of businesses developing in the real estate sector.

In addition, experts also commented that the need to buy real estate always exists and the main target group looking to buy real estate in the coming time is young families, especially newlywed couples.

Mr. Dinh Minh Tuan, Southern Regional Director of Batdongsan.com.vn said: "Currently, although apartments have 'cooled down' and are not attracting a large number of customers like before, prices have not decreased. At the same time, apartments are still a type of property with good liquidity in the market."

According to Mr. Tuan, a series of government policies are promoting the entire economy across the country, real estate is also a hot industry and always receives special attention from investors. If the policies are applied well and smoothly and the market in the coming time continues to stabilize, the real estate market in the South will return to the "race track".
