Developers offer incentives to woo homebuyers

HCMC - Two property developers in Binh Duong and Dong Nai provinces have announced strong incentives, offering installments plans and deep discounts for buyers of villas and row houses in their property projects currently underway.

SetiaBecamex JSC, developer of EcoLakes My Phuoc in Binh Duong Province, has launched the so-called EcoLakes 30/70 Homes Plan, requiring homebuyers to pay in advance a sum equal to 30% of the property in EcoLakes.

Khoo Teck Chong, general director of SetiaBecamex, explained that the program was designed to offer a simple home ownership or property investment plan where homebuyers pay 30% of the price in installments and get a loan for the balance. Homebuyers will not be charged interest during construction until their properties are completed and handed over.

The company said the current high interest rate is a burden for many homebuyers, making many people feel hesitate whether to take out a loan for buying a property. The program will help buyers save from VND70 million to VND200 million once they buy properties in the project

The Malaysian developer plans to launch 227 villas and row houses with prices starting from VND3.3 billion and VND1.2 billion respectively in the coming time.

In another project, Tin Nghia Corporation in Dong Nai Province has slashed prices by between 20% and 50% for a residential project in Bien Hoa City’s Tan Bien Ward in the southern province.

Some 100 villas and row houses from 200 to 250 square meters are offered at VND797 million per unit. Some banks are going along, offering financial support for homerbuyers.

Nguyen Thi Thanh Huong, director of Tinnghia Land, says the program is designed to stir up the market demand as well as to offer the people a chance to buy a house. Construction of these properties has finished and homebuyers can move in.

HCM CITY — The Hoa Anh Dao Tourist Joint-Stock Company has begun construction on its Oceanami Resort&Luxury Home Project which contains 180 villas designated for the second-home market as well as a five-star hotel and other facilities.

Marc Townsend, managing director for real estate services firm CBRE, said a large number of high-end villas, houses and apartments would enter the second-home market over the next several years.

He said the supply pipeline of around 11,000 villas and 10,000 condos in the third quarter would represent a five and threefold increase, respectively, compared with current figures.

A majority of the properties are on the country's central coast.

The second-home market is still in its infancy, he said, adding that it had just resumed in the past few years but had drawn the growing attention of local and international investors.

He noted that the second-home market had grown more active in recent years because of interest shown by international resort operators and the higher rate of construction activity.

Several second-home projects have been up and running, including the Nam Hai in Hoi An that was launched four years ago. Nearly all of its 40 villas priced from $1.5 million have been sold.

Buyers of the villas were initially foreigners and fund companies, but now the majority are local residents.

"While the majority of buyers for this type of property tend to be local people from Ha Noi, representing 40 per cent of overall buyers, locals from HCM City are now catching up with them with their share of market transactions now standing at 30 per cent," he said.

The second-home is typically located in a beachfront resort or in the mountains in a managed community, and can be leased for additional income, or used for future retirement of the owners. — VNS
