It is worth noting that with the improvement of infrastructure and the expansion to urban area, there are two new projects launched in Dong Anh district. The middle-class segment continues to dominate the market with a total of 80% of new apartments during the year.
As the new supply is still plentiful and the market trend to middle-class segment, the primary price level has not increased. By 2017, the average primary market price is $ 1,344 / m2, reducing by 2.4%
Offers were also good with more than 23,000 successful deals in 2017, increasing by 12% compared to the same period last year.
Representatives of CBRE forecast that in the coming years, positive macroeconomic fundamentals will continue to motivate the housing market in general and the apartment market in particular. With the development of market, investors must professionalize the sales staff and improve marketing activities to compete.
"The year 2018 is expected to witness a clear division between the segments, with high-end projects appearing in center, while investors in the lower segments will have to improve under competitive pressure", she said.
