CB Richard Ellis | Page 26 Client Logo Goes Here RESIDENTIAL CONDO HCMC TRENDS: 9Price of low to mid end projects expected to be stable. 9Price of high end projects with good zoning and infrastructure remain high. 9More buyers have real needs and there will not be as many as speculators as previously. 9Demand forecasted to be increased 6-7% in a few years to come partly thanks to loan flexibility of banks. 9Buyers become more and more savvy, so developer’s brand plays a more and more important role.
