The National Assembly (NA) has adopted theHousing Law and the Law on Real Estate Business, which are expected to create aboost for the market after they take effect in early 2025.
Experts, however, pointed to outstanding challenges in terms of institutions,credit loans, bonds and the implementation of mechanism and policies inlocalities.
Nguyen Quoc Hiep, Chairman of GP. Invest, said there are almost no new projects at present owing to legal problems, which is also themain cause behind the supply-demand mismatch.
Given this, he suggested localities actively engage in reforming administrativeprocedures and untangle knots for the ongoingones. He also pins hope on a new Land Law, saying that it will decide the recovery of the property market.
Economist Can Van Luc held that the rebound would beseen more clearly from the second quarter of this year when the Government’sincentives begin to work, financial cases are settled, and the corporate bondmarket sails through the rough time./.
