Vietnam reappears on the radar
“As forecast earlier in the year, Vietnam has
seen transactional activity pick up.

remains unserviced on the side lines.

DOMESTIC PLAYERS NEED TO FORGET 2005
Quite simply - It is called Investment, not Charity
 Foreign investors are not here
to make you rich!
 The big four questions still
remain– without a realistic and
honest approach to these,
foreigners will look elsewhere.
VALUATION
TRANSPARENCY STRUCTURING TRACK RECORD

 After several years of hurt, Vietnam shows opportunity and return….;
• (Unfortunately, where ever there is a winner, there will always be a loser)
 Residential Real Estate again becomes attractive to Vietnamese investors as
other alternatives (gold, stock market, deposit accounts) offer limited returns;
• By the 2014 Fearless Forecast – the residential market will have passed
the bottom
 As Andy Murray will testify, a win does not come easily;
• Those already committed to Vietnam, still have many battles to survive;
• Particularly for residential developers, flexibility will still be the key for
success – buyers still need to be nurtured;
From our Crystal Ball
CBRE’S FORECASTS - 2H 2013

 The next round of interest cuts proves to be one of the most decisive in
improving residential purchaser sentiment;
 “Middle-class” housing projects, such as those seen on the Hanoi Highway in
District 2, will see over 50% of the lights switched on by year end;
 Grade A office rents finish the year unchanged or slightly up as vacancy drops
below 10% and new options on the horizon look slim;
 High street corners to become further dominated by foreign brands looking to
expand their foot print;
 Investment deal flows continues to be at heightened levels as in the first half;
• However, many foreign investors still fly out of Vietnam without their
wallets having been opened;
• Vietnam upgraded from completely toxic to just toxic!
