Deposit fines may be raised to control land auctions

The Vietnam Association of Realtors (VARS) proposed that it is possible to hire a valuation consultancy organization and consider raising the deposit level and penalty for land auction deposits.

According to data from the Vietnam Association of Realtors (VARS), recently, land auctions with high winning prices have been taking place locally in some areas of Hanoi.

Vars experts also proposed solutions such as controlling land auctions, hiring valuation consultants and implementing a price determination process to make the starting price more appropriate, and considering raising the deposit level and deposit penalties.
