Supply has therefore increased, but has not reached the level required for a balanced market. This has established a new price level in the real estate market. Developing Modern Urban Models Forecasting growth scenarios for the real estate market in the coming period, Prof. Dr. Hoang Van Cuong highlighted several factors, including the pace of economic growth and rapid urbanization, which are expected to drive continued growth in real estate demand. This is because real estate is concentrated in many major cities, where demand is strong. The projected acceleration of urbanization will naturally increase demand. Prof. Dr. Hoang Van Cuong &#8211; National Assembly deputy, former Vice President of NEU. Regarding an environment conducive to the development of the real estate market, Cuong expressed hope that three newly enacted laws and the new legal framework would clear the procedural bottlenecks experienced recently and support professional real estate investors with substantial resources in meeting market demand and gaining access to real estate projects. Furthermore, room for real estate development is also opening up. In recent years, provinces and cities have focused intensively on developing local and urban plans. Once barriers to access to land and projects are removed, supply will become more abundant and meet the economy\u2019s growth needs in the coming period. \u201cWhen the economy grows, real estate will develop strongly. This has been demonstrated throughout market cycles. With expectations for GDP growth during 2025-2030, we can be confident that the real estate market will continue to grow,\u201d Cuong commented. At the seminar, Prof. Dr. Hoang Van Cuong also offered recommendations for stable economic and real estate market development, including credit policies to increase capital, expanding real estate supply, and developing modern urban models, among others. According to Prof. Dr. Hoang Van Cuong, credit controls help limit real estate investment. This tool can therefore be used for short-term regulation, but using it over the long term will create market imbalances. Reducing short-term lending rates will only affect real estate inventory; without new supply, market balance cannot be maintained. Instead, interest rate support for long-term real estate loans is what creates new demand and balance in the market. Cuong said that this long-term credit can only come from the Vietnam Bank for Social Policies, real estate bonds, buyers\u2019 advance payments, or investment trusts. At the same time, legal bottlenecks must be removed and access expanded so that more projects can begin construction to increase supply. However, this must follow housing development plans that meet demand, rather than allowing development wherever investors wish, resulting in the indiscriminate investment seen in the past. In addition, modern urban models should be developed, including TOD urban areas, also known as 15-minute cities, with high population density and integrated services meeting all amenity needs. The development of low-rise housing on subdivided lots should be limited. Taxation to Curb Speculation Must Be Timed Carefully Alongside these measures, mechanisms to prevent speculation must be considered. According to Cuong, without controls on speculation, the market will establish ever more new price levels, making land valuation more difficult and directly affecting land users\u2019 interests, resulting in unsustainable market development. Taxation will reduce real estate prices and have a long-term effect, benefiting consumers. However, its introduction must be timed carefully. With a taxation mechanism in place, only real estate purchased for use would be encouraged, such as purchases for owner occupancy or rental. This would promote the development of an affordable housing market rather than purchases for asset accumulation, as is currently the case.
