CBRE Vietnam said investment flowsinto the country so far mainly come from Asian investors like Singapore, Japan,Hong Kong (China), and the Republic of Korea. The value of each transactionoften varies between 20 - 50 million USD.

Meanwhile, financial funds from moredeveloped markets in North America and Europe have yet to deeply penetrate theVietnamese market.

A large number of individualinvestors have begun paying attention to local real estate, the firm went on, citing data of the Ministry of Construction as showingthat about 4 million people, including foreigners and overseas Vietnamese, havedemand for buying houses in Vietnam in the future.

ChiefExecutive Officer for Avison Young in Vietnam David Jackson held that the Asia-Pacific,including Vietnam, boasts much potential for attracting more investment thanother regions in the world. Such factors as young population, economic growth, andconsumption habits in the region indicate a positive long-term prospect.

Accordingto the Statista company, Vietnam’s real estate market is worth 4.41 trillionUSD in 2024, while the Thai market is valued at 2.51 trillion USD.

Most investors in Vietnam areinterested in industrial and office property.
