Real Estate in Vietnam
Posted on December 14, 2011 |
Vietnam is enticing more and more international investors lately and, in a recent survey by the Association of Foreign Investors in Real Estate (AFIRE), Vietnam ranked fourth in the world in the emerging global real estate markets category.
Among the emerging markets, Brazil took first place from China in second , which ranked top in 2010. India came in third, Vietnam fourth and Mexico ranked fifth, losing last year’s position to Vietnam.
Russia, which has been amongst the top five emerging real estate markets for the last two years, dropped to tenth place.
Peter Ryder, general director of Indochina Capital, which currently has several real estate projects under construction in Vietnam, commented on the recent rise in investment saying; “This result is due to the rapid growth of Vietnam’s real estate market and the open regulations, which allow the participation of foreign investors.”
Vietnam continues to appear attractive to foreign investors and its economy has recovered well from the global recession. Other factors enticing overseas investors to Vietnam are its strong economic growth, fast rate of urbanisation and the growth of its new middle class.
