Although they have been handed over since 2016, some old social housing apartments in Hanoi have continuously increased in price, approaching that of commercial apartments.
The NOXH project 987 Tam Trinh,Yen So (Hoang Mai, Hanoi) at the end of 2017 had a selling price of about 14.2 million VND/m2 (excluding VAT). Meanwhile, commercial apartments in the same project had a price of about 18 million VND/m2. Currently, apartments here are being sold at prices ranging from 52 - 56 million VND/m2.Although many items have deteriorated due to time, the apartments at the 987 Tam Trinh social housing project have continued to increase in price.Mr. Dinh Xuan Hoa (Ha Nam) said that after 2 months of searching and not being able to buy a commercial apartment due to high prices, he came to the 987 Tam Trinh project and was very surprised at the price: "Although it has been in operation since around 2017 until now, the quality of the houses is no longer as good as new, but the price of houses here is still over 50 million VND/m2. My wife and I heard from brokers that the price is still increasing every day because Tam Trinh road is being rebuilt, traffic will be more convenient in the future.Similarly, the NOXH Rice City – Tay Nam Linh Dam project (Hoang Liet ward, Hoang Mai district), when it opened for sale in 2015, had a price of nearly 15 million VND/m2. Up to now, after 9 years, NOXH apartments here are being sold at 54 – 59 million VND/m2.Inside a 2-bedroom apartment on the 20th floor of Rice City apartment building – Tay Nam Linh Dam.

This apartment is selling for 4 billion VND, but the owner still requires the buyer to pay a transfer fee of about 30 million VND. Only when many social housing projects are granted construction permits will the "fever" of apartment buildings have a chance to stop," said Mr. The Hien, a broker at a real estate website.
