Sustainable Real Estate Market Development Forum 2024

At the Forum, BIDV’s Chief Economist, Mr. Can Van Luc, shared that legal obstacles related to real estate, such as social housing, are being gradually addressed. Laws such as the Land Law and the Real Estate Business Law are being amended to create a more favorable legal corridor. Additionally, some regulations need to be improved to prevent delays in project approval and disbursement.

Moreover, land valuation based on market principles has helped resolve issues regarding land prices. This has facilitated the compensation, site clearance, and investment cost determination processes.

However, Mr. Luc also noted that the new market-based land price table could increase land use costs, leading to higher housing prices, including social housing. This situation requires enterprises and management agencies to balance costs and selling prices to ensure the feasibility of projects.

According to Mr. Le Xuan Nghia, a member of the National Financial-Monetary Policy Advisory Council, complicated administrative procedures and a lack of synchronization between localities are also significant barriers. The prolonged stagnation of projects has resulted in a waste of national resources and negatively impacted both citizens and businesses. Statistics show that Hanoi has nearly 1,500 stalled projects, while Ho Chi Minh City has approximately 2,600. This situation not only causes a housing shortage but also diminishes employment opportunities.

The most urgent need now is to develop a National Assembly resolution to address legal, management, and administrative procedure-related obstacles. A National Assembly resolution regarding social housing and real estate projects is necessary to comprehensively tackle the current challenges. Mr. Nghia emphasized, “This is not only the hope of real estate enterprises but also the solution to the housing equation for millions of people. If we don’t act promptly, the market will continue its vicious cycle, missing out on investment and development opportunities.”

Mr. Le Huu Nghia, General Director of Le Thanh Company, shared that enterprises engaging in social housing development are currently investing their capital and facing challenges during inspections and project approvals. It is necessary to create a financial support mechanism for both investors and homebuyers. Without special interest rate and loan packages, attracting enterprises to invest in the social housing segment will be challenging.

Synchronized coordination between the State, enterprises, and citizens is essential for the development of the social housing segment. Management agencies should continue to improve policies and create favorable conditions for enterprises to develop projects transparently and efficiently.

Mr. Nghia also emphasized that to ensure social housing reaches the right beneficiaries, a strict control mechanism must be established while allowing easier transfers. This approach enhances resource efficiency and minimizes speculation.

Social housing is expected to develop sustainably, meeting the housing needs of millions of people. This presents not only opportunities for enterprises but also a solution to social welfare issues, positively contributing to the country’s economic development.
