Apartment prices increase sharply, experts point out that costs have a big impact on prices
Land use costs account for a large proportion of the cost of apartments. If calculated reasonably, housing prices can return to a more suitable level.
Over the years, housing prices in large cities have continuously increased, while the supply of affordable and mid-range apartments has gradually disappeared, the market has leaned strongly towards the high-end segment. The rapid increase in housing prices has caused the middle-income group, which accounts for the majority of society, to have almost no chance to access housing.
According to a survey, in Hanoi, most of the projects are being offered for sale at over 70 million VND/m2. VARS IRE data shows that by the end of the second quarter of 2025, apartment prices have increased by 87.7% compared to 2019, reaching an average of 75.5 million VND/m2 - much higher than the increase in people's income.
At the meeting of the Central Steering Committee on housing policies and real estate market on September 22, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh requested relevant agencies to clarify the reasons for the high housing prices and rectify the situation of hoarding and price inflation if any. The Prime Minister also emphasized the task of developing social housing for low- and middle-income people to balance product structure and ensure social security. See more...
