Unbelievable Affordable Apartments Near Hanoi’s City Center for Young Professionals

Dream Prices for Young Buyers

As property prices become increasingly out of reach for many, especially young buyers, Hanoi Melody Residences in Southwest Linh Đàm has surprised many by maintaining a reasonable price point despite its prime inner-city location.

Mr. Nguyễn Quốc Đạt, a real estate agent involved in selling units at Hanoi Melody Residences, notes that the project has attracted a large number of young buyers, primarily newly married couples or those with young children.

According to Mr. Đạt, the most appealing factor for young buyers is the project’s competitive pricing, starting at just 71.9 million VND per square meter. This is considered a rarity in the market, allowing buyers to stay within the city center without having to relocate farther away, as property prices in Hanoi continue to soar, with some suburban projects nearing 100 million VND per square meter.

“Today’s young buyers are very practical when it comes to purchasing a home. They prioritize the living experience—wanting modern designs, full amenities, but also place financial considerations at the forefront: the price must be reasonable, payment plans flexible, and legal transparency and construction progress must be assured to avoid any risks associated with first-time home buying,” Mr. Đạt observes.

Mr. Minh Tuấn (29 years old) and his wife, owners of a two-bedroom apartment at Hanoi Melody Residences, shared that after researching numerous projects from the city center to the suburbs, most were beyond their financial means.

“When we learned that Hanoi Melody Residences was priced at just over 70 million VND per square meter, not too far from our workplace, and was in the final stages of construction, we decided to seek financial support from both sets of parents and take out a bank loan to secure our purchase early,” Mr. Tuấn explained.

He described the decision as “both bold and fortunate” because shortly after placing a deposit, the unit type they purchased sold out. “Fortunately, we can now look forward to moving in, staying within our budget. If we had hesitated any longer, we might have missed this opportunity,” he added.

Expanding Housing Preferences Among Young Buyers

Young buyers at Hanoi Melody Residences are contributing to a trend of younger homeownership. According to the latest data from the Vietnam Association of Realtors (VARS), since 2019, the proportion of young people entering the real estate market, particularly in the apartment segment, has increased significantly. Buyers aged 25-35 now account for over 40% of transactions on average. In some projects, this figure reaches up to 70%.

The preferences of young buyers have also shifted markedly compared to previous generations. They no longer prioritize townhouses or land plots but instead favor condominium apartments with good infrastructure connectivity, affordable pricing, and a modern lifestyle, along with comprehensive on-site amenities such as supermarkets, gyms, schools, and parks. These are precisely the features that Hanoi Melody Residences offers.

Hanoi Melody Residences stands out with its nearly 20 enclosed on-site amenities: swimming pools, multi-purpose sports courts, outdoor gyms, walking paths, shophouses, children’s playgrounds, and more. All are designed to fully meet the living, working, and leisure needs of young residents. Notably, the project includes an on-site kindergarten and is adjacent to numerous multi-level schools, providing parents with peace of mind regarding their children’s education.

Located in the new urban area of Southwest Linh Đàm, Hanoi Melody Residences boasts four open sides, surrounded by uniformly planned villas, ensuring a quiet and private living environment. Residents can easily access the city center and other areas via Giải Phóng Street, Ring Road 3, and National Highway 1A, while also enjoying a complete range of external amenities such as hospitals, schools, and shopping centers.

The project offers flexible financial policies and optimal support for buyers. Those taking out mortgages benefit from a 0% interest rate and a debt principal grace period until handover or up to 24 months. This policy reduces initial financial pressure, providing young buyers with the opportunity to stabilize their income before entering the repayment phase.

Notably, the project has already obtained the entire land use rights certificate, and construction progress is on track, with the first tower having been topped out since early August 2025. The remaining towers are being expedited for completion, with a projected simultaneous handover in Q4/2026. These factors provide young buyers with added confidence in choosing their first home.

It allows young buyers to not only secure a home but also seize investment opportunities for the future.
