| First study on consumer sentiment in real estate in Viet Nam released. |
The Vietnam Consumer Sentiment Study was announced by Batdongsan.com.vn in a virtual event on February 24. It is the first of its kind in Viet Nam looking into consumers’ sentiment towards real estate.
Before Viet Nam, similar reports have been released by the group in Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand since 2009, said CEO of Batdongsan.com.vn Robert Vu.
In Viet Nam, the study had been conducted online since last November, attracting 1,000 respondents. It aims to measure consumers’ perception of the property market and their expectations about the market outlook and future trends. The study will be released twice a year.
Vu said Vietnamese are now paying more attention to green living space and want to own a more spacious house. Many of them even want to move to suburbs or less-crowded areas. Ha Noi and Ho Chi Minh City are the top choices among potential homebuyers, he added.
The study also shows that 52 percent of the respondents find property prices in Viet Nam too high and the high prices remain the biggest challenge to potential buyers. Up to 72 percent believe that prices are going down because of COVID-19, while 31 percent expect that property prices will continue to rise by over 10 percent within the next 5 years.
About 55 percent are living on residential land and 25 percent in a condo apartment.
