Currently one of the hottest global leisure destinations, there is growing property demand in Ho Chi Minh City. This is due to a burgeoning middle class, new projects and the increase in real estate prices across regions such as Hong Kong and Thailand. Investors will benefit from an extensive collection of high-end condos and penthouses across the city.
Extending across different towers and developments, there have been nearly 40,000 high-quality apartments constructed in the past few years alone. In fact, the majority of new developments are now being built in Ho Chi Minh. Condo projects tend to be clustered around a couple of zones with many located in the main tourist, retail and business district known as Zone 1.
The biggest development initiative in Golden River offers premium one, two and three-bed apartments. Mid-range condos in Ho Chi Minh City and affordable condo developments can usually be found in Zone 2, 7 and 9.
Divided into 19 districts, Zones 2 and 7 is where investors can find affordable properties alongside further planned development projects. Centrally located, Zone 1 is popular with foreigners and is considered the priciest area among numerous areas in Ho Chi Minh. Zone 1 is home to Ho Chi Minh main attractions including the Notre-Dame Basilica, and the Bitexco financial tower. Despite expensive real estate, an upward price appreciation is expected in the next few years.
Zone 2, especially around Thao Dien, is popular among foreign buyers due to its high-quality apartments and family-friendly vibe. Greater investment, an abundance of schools, malls and spacious homes make this district highly livable. Furthermore, a brand new metro line is set to open in 2020 ensuring not only price increases but easy travel between Zones 1 and 2. District 3 is just as bustling and very popular with foreign buyers offering a broad range of cultural influences, cafes, and bars.
Other budget apartments are situated around Zone 5 which has fantastic Chinese restaurants and temples. Far more affordable than central developments, Zone 5 is still within close proximity of downtown Ho Chi Minh.
Zone 7 is a favorite for families looking for more cost-effective properties. With access to golf courses and an array of dining options, it is away from the built-up areas of central Ho Chi Minh. Gaining in popularity, this area has potential investment opportunities in the long term.
