Troy Griffiths, Deputy Managing Director of Savills Vietnam, said real estate M&A activities are increasingly vibrant, stressing the State Bank of Vietnam's continued pursuit of reducing interest rates to the 2020 level is also a good sign for housing property.
Neil MacGregor, Managing Director of Savills Vietnam, said with the shortage of apartment supply, investors who are able to successfully develop new projects will benefit from the strong demand at this time, especially if they target the growing middle-class buyers.
