Real estate ranked second in terms of foreign investment into Vietnam from January to August, accounting for nearly 20% of the registered total foreign direct investment (FDI) in the period.
Existing projects increased their capital by 150,000 USD in the period, bringing the total foreign capital into the real estate sector to 2.55 billion USD, 3.7 times higher than the same period last year.
A sum worth around 1.27 billion USD has been disbursed in the period, double that of 2023.
According to Savills Vietnam, FDI is an essential factor for the market, especially industrial property, four segments which are benefiting most from the foreign capital moving into real estate, including retail, office and housing.
Savills’ statistics showed that there are 33,000 ha of industrial zones for lease in Vietnam, with an occupancy rate of 80%.
General Director of InCorp Vietnam Jack Nguyen said that global manufacturers are looking to shift their production base to Vietnam, pushing up demand and investments in industrial property.
Office and housing markets are also being inflated by macroeconomic stability and business expansion, he said.
