Prolonged heavy rainfall has caused severe flooding on Thang Long Boulevard, with water inundating urban areas on both sides of the road. This situation serves as a critical test for the drainage systems of these urban developments.

Real estate experts advise prospective buyers to visit properties during rainy weather. This provides an opportunity to assess waterproofing, drainage systems, and potential flooding issues that may not be apparent in dry conditions, ensuring a more informed purchasing decision.

The Geleximco urban area is among the most severely affected, with floodwaters completely covering internal roads.

Residents are forced to wade through deep water, while many motorcycles and cars have stalled on the roads. Underground parking areas are also heavily flooded, significantly disrupting daily life.

Some residents have prepared boats and makeshift vehicles, having grown accustomed to frequent flooding.

Nearby, the Nam An Khanh urban area is also grappling with severe flooding. Rising water levels on internal roads have forced residents to rely on towing services or wade through the water. Daily activities and commerce have nearly come to a standstill, with many shops temporarily closing to prevent property damage.

The Gemek Tower is another urban area severely impacted by the heavy rain. High water levels on internal roads have immobilized many vehicles, causing chaos. This situation offers potential buyers a firsthand look at the drainage system and infrastructure before making a purchase decision.

The parking garage at Gemek Tower has been reinforced with sandbags and short walls to minimize water intrusion, protecting residents’ vehicles during heavy rain. This measure also allows buyers to assess the urban area’s flood response capabilities.

In contrast, urban areas like Vinhomes Smart City remain dry, with clear internal roads and smooth traffic flow.

A resident reports that this urban area is typically less prone to flooding than surrounding areas. During this particular storm, the management proactively coordinated with pumping stations and deployed water tankers and staff to clear drains, maintaining a dry environment.

The Thien Duong Bao Son urban area also remains dry due to its significantly higher elevation compared to the surrounding roads.

During the storm, Geleximco, Nam An Khanh, and Gemek highlighted risks associated with low-rise apartments and townhouses, while Vinhomes Smart City and Thien Duong Bao Son remained dry with convenient infrastructure. This situation provides an opportunity to evaluate internal amenities and the surrounding environment, offering negotiating leverage. Hidden defects become grounds for requesting repairs or price reductions.
