According to the report, the Southern market saw over 6,000 villas and townhouses launched in July 2025, with only 480 units sold, accounting for a mere 8% absorption rate. In terms of supply, Dong Nai province took the lead with 40%, followed by Ho Chi Minh City at 38%, and Tay Ninh at 22%. Compared to the same period last year, there was a slight increase of 5% in the primary supply of villas and townhouses in the South. However, overall, new supply remains scarce, witnessing a 67% decrease and accounting for only 3% of the total primary supply.
Regarding price levels, the most expensive primary property in Ho Chi Minh City reached a staggering VND 700 billion per unit, far surpassing the prices in Dong Nai and Tay Ninh, which peaked at VND 228 billion and VND 39 billion, respectively. The high prices have resulted in low liquidity in the villa and townhouse market in Ho Chi Minh City, witnessing a 75% decrease compared to the previous month.

As per DKRA Consulting, transaction volumes in this segment during July 2025 were concentrated in the price range of below VND 6 billion per unit (in Long An and Binh Duong provinces) and below VND 10 billion per unit (in Ho Chi Minh City). High prices hindered sales.
There were no significant changes in the primary price levels compared to the previous month, remaining high due to the impact of various input costs. To boost sales and attract residents, investors continue to offer attractive sales policies such as management fee waivers, furniture packages, flexible payment schedules, and bank loan support.
Meanwhile, secondary market prices witnessed a slight increase of 1%-2% compared to the previous month. Projects with high commercial value, convenient transportation links, completed legal procedures, and those that have been handed over to buyers attracted the most attention from customers.
Savills’ Q2 2025 report also highlighted the challenges faced by the Ho Chi Minh City landed property market, with a significant decrease in primary supply during the quarter. The lack of supply has resulted in sluggish performance, with a small absorption rate, despite a large inventory of high-end products and a relatively limited buyer pool.
According to the report, future supply is expected to remain limited, with only about 3,600 units scheduled for launch in the market until 2027, mainly in the outskirts of the city, supported by developing infrastructure.
