Hai An real estate "changed"
In the general development picture of real estate in Hai Phong, Hai An district is emerging as a new destination, with many clear movements from both supply and demand.
As an area that plays a key role in logistics, industry and transportation of the port city, Hai An is known as the "thereabout" of industrial park real estate. However, in recent years, the real estate market in this area has shown signs of "changing quality" thanks to the presence of many large real estate developers with product lines in the higher segment, more diverse: from high-end apartments, commercial townhouses, villas, townhouses... Products are increasingly focused not only on design but also on living value. This is a clear signal showing the shift in market positioning - from an industrial-oriented area to a multi-functional urban area, serving both residential, investment and business needs.
Experts believe that this shift is an inevitable result of the urban restructuring process, when Hai An is oriented to become a commercial - financial center according to the new planning of Hai Phong City.
Mr. Tran Thang - a long-time broker in Hai Phong - said: "Since Hai An had planning information to the financial center, the number of customers looking to buy and invest here has increased significantly. Projects with clear legal status and convenient connection locations are becoming a sightseeing spot for both investors and real buyers.
It is not difficult to understand why Hai An real estate attracts customers. In addition to planning factors, Hai An owns a large industrial park system such as Nam Dinh Vu, MP Dinh Vu, DEEP C or Trang Cat... These industrial parks are not only destinations to attract businesses, but also attract waves of domestic and foreign workers and experts to live, creating real demand for housing and urban services.
In particular, the real estate price level is still low, the unit price of townhouses is only from 40-70 million/m2, while new urban areas are taking shape, along with the synchronously invested service, education and health ecosystem, helping Hai An become a " rising star" on the real estate map.
Planning and infrastructure - the foundation for transformation
Hai An is considered one of the few districts in Hai Phong that still have a large development land fund, convenient connecting locations and at the same time converge all the factors to become the growth pole of urban areas in the East.
Not only oriented to become a commercial - financial center, Hai An continues to strengthen its key role in Hai Phong's development strategy to become an international logistics center. According to the plan, Hai Phong's logistics network is about 2,200 - 2,500 hectares wide with an international and regional logistics center in the Dinh Vu - Cat Hai area. In addition, arrange logistics areas associated with industrial production areas, river ports, seaports and other transportation centers and units in Hai An district and some other districts.
Along with that are a series of key transport projects being and about to be implemented in the area such as: Expanding the Cat Bi Airport Parking Area (phase 2) - total investment capital of more than 1,100 billion VND; Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong Expressway Line with Dinh Vu Station located in Hai An (expected to start construction in December 2025); Hai Phong Ring Road 2 ( begun construction in 2025); Tan Vu - Lach Huyen 2 Bridge Project is being proposed for construction...
The multi-dinged transport infrastructure is gradually changing the role and position of Hai An, from a purely industrial area to the center of the easternmost urban area, synchronous in both residential, working and service functions.
In fact, according to data from market research units, Hai Phong, including Hai An, is one of the real estate markets with the fastest recovery rate after a period of stagnation, with a price increase of 5 - 30% in the first quarter of 2025, depending on the region.
This context becomes even more favorable when the city's population is forecast to increase sharply in the coming years - reaching 3 million people by 2030 and possibly exceeding 3.9 million people by 2040, with an urbanization rate of 80 - 86%, not including the population after the merger with Hai Duong. Average income per capita in Hai Phong is currently ranked 5th nationwide and Hai Duong is ranked 10th, creating stable demand for the mid-high-end housing segment.
From an industrial and logistics district, Hai An is gradually repositioning to become a modern, multi-functional and livable urban area. This process will continue strongly in the period of 2025 - 2030 when infrastructure, transportation and service projects are completed more synchronously.
With a solid foundation in the making, Hai An is an area that many experts assess as having sustainable profit potential, suitable for medium- and long-term investors or real buyers with vision. However, to properly seize the opportunity, choosing a reputable project with clear legal status and good connectivity location is still a key factor.
