Property developer Novaland also proclaimed that since the beginning of the year, it has achieved striking sales of over 2,100 housing units in its various projects.
The neighbouring province of Binh Duong, after a period seeing stalled transactions, has also posted robust transactions.
According to Kim Oanh Real Estate Company all 400 housing plots of its Mall City project (Di An district) had been reserved just a week after going on sale.
Hoang Anh Tuan, general director of Tac Dat Tac Vang Corporation revealed that three weeks after sales began for the IJC@VSIP luxury commercial urban project in Binh Duong New City, 200 clients had put down deposits.
By end of this month, the company plans to host a meeting to present investment opportunities in Binh Duong and begin sales at the project.
According to Nguyen Hoang Minh, deputy director of State Bank of Vietnam’s Ho Chi Minh City branch, mortgages and lending for property in the city’s banks had surpassed VND123 trillion ($5.8 billion) against VND105 trillion ($5 billion) earlier in the year. Banks have applied lower interest rates on mortgages and worked together with project developers to implement a variety of support programmes. These combined factors are expected to help invigorate the property market in the remaining months of the year.
