Vietnam to Build Second Tallest Tower in Asia

PetroVietnam-Hanoi-Tower-2nd-Tallest-building-Asia

Hanoi, the Vietnamese capital is to become home to the second largest tower in Asia, material proof of the growing economic prowess of Asia’s brightest emerging markets.

The design of Nikkei Sekkei, a Japanese architectural firm was chosen for the 102 storey, 528 meter tower to be built in the Me Tri commune in Hanoi’s outlying district of Tu Liem. The est. 1.2 billion dollar tower, financed by the Petro Vietnam Construction Joint Stock Corporation (PVC), the Vietnam National Oil and Gas Group, the Ocean Group and the real estate developer SSG Group, will comprise trade centres, offices for lease and apartments.

The tower is phase 2 of a massive complex being built by the corporation, with phase 1 comprising 3 150m hotel and apartment towers. Construction of phase 2 is due to start in 2011 and take 30 to 36 months to complete. When complete, the tower will be second only to the Burj Dubai Tower in the United Arab Emirates.

This is a big deal for Vietnam. As China and India become global economic superpowers, one would expect them to be coming out with towers like this, for Vietnam the structure will be a symbol of how far the nation has come, and something that all Vietnamese citizens can be proud of.

During the recent global construction and property market boom, Vietnam became known as one of the hottest emerging markets in the world. As the recession crossed from America to the UK and rumours of a global crisis began to emerged, Vietnam was talked about as one of the few markets with a chance of escaping recession.

Unfortunately it suffered a recession, but is thought to be rebounding strongly. The International Monetary Fund is forecasting growth of 6% this year, and 6.5% next year.

There is also undeniably a great deal of wealth in Vietnamese corporations like PVC, and developments like this will not only bolster economic growth, by providing jobs from the lowest level to the highest, but also by growing merchant companies who supply materials for its construction. We will be watching this development very closely and keeping our readers apprised of its progress.

Ikea Joins Tesco in UK Property Development – Good or Bad News?

ikea-village-2012-olympic-site The latest in the saga of retail giants turning house developer is that Inter IKEA has bought a 13 acre site on Sugar House Lane, in what will become the site of the London Olympics — right next to the Olympic Stadium to be precise — to build a mixed use development of retail and office space and 1500 residential housing units. Contentious as they may be; new players are entering the housing market, is it good or bad news?

News of the IKEA plan follows the recent approval of a Tesco housing scheme in Bromley-by-Bow, consisting of 450 residential units, a primary school, shops and a hotel, which is Tesco’s fifth development after those in Dartford, Kent, Streatham and Woolwich.

The Tesco story went national for obvious reasons, while IKEA’s previous developments were completed with much less fuss. Yes, that’s right; this isn’t IKEA’s first foray into property development in the UK. The company has built a development of prefabricated houses in Gateshead, which, despite all the jokes about flat-packed housing are fully occupied, and “honestly modern” according to the Telegraph. The firm had a proposal to build a 19 story apartment block across from Hillingdon station refused.

The system used to build the Gateshead houses was called BokLok, similar to the kit-houses being made and sold by UK firms.

Plans have not been released for the Sugar House Lane development, all we have is statements from Inter IKEA saying that they won’t look like the BokLok housing, and a statement from Peter Andrews, the chief executive of the London Thames Gateway Development Corporation (LTGDC). Andrews said that he expects the units to display “the ethics of IKEA”.

“From what I’ve seen, they’re going to be different to the high-rise-dominated plans that were up before,” he said.

Andrews also said that he fully expects the development to become “a Covent Garden in the East End”. A retail, housing and leisure hub abutting the Olympic Park, this IKEA village will be one of the things making the new East End a place in which people will be proud to live, as well as a tourist destination to die for.

The question of whether this is good or bad depends on your viewpoint. From the viewpoint of outward facing business in the east end this is a good thing, because UK developers and investors are often prejudicial to the industrial east end, whereas those from outside are coming in with an open mind. Inter IKEA are currently joined by Australian developers Westfield and Lend Lease.

From a first-time buyer’s perspective this could also be good, because it is expected the 35% of the 1500 units will be affordable housing, and affordable by IKEA’s standards may be more affordable than that of Barratts.

For the residential property industry, agents, surveyors, architects, and for the wider economy, companies with substantial capital entering the market can only be perceived as a good thing.

On the whole though, time will reveal whether retail big-shots have a place in the creation of residential housing in the UK or not. One thing is certain; most developers care about the bottom line more than whether housing is affordable to core society, and it is unlikely that Tesco, IKEA, Inter IKEA or any big retail chain will have different priorities.

Press Releases: Momentum Slows in Q2 in Asia’s Direct Real Estate Investment Market

9 August 2010, Asia — The Asian real estate investment market showed signs of continuing to make steady improvement in the first half of 2010 with direct real estate investment in the region rising 136% year-on-year during the period to be recorded at an estimated US$30 billion. Although activity levels rose significantly in virtually every Asian market as measured on a yearly basis, investment volume fell by 22% quarter-on-quarter in the second quarter as investors turned more cautious following the implementation of various measures by governments around the region intended to curb speculative activity. Worries over the fragility of the global economic recovery and the eurozone sovereign debt crisis also negatively impacted investor sentiment in the second quarter according to the CB Richard Ellis’s Asia Investment MarketView report covering the first half of 2010.

Japan was the most active market in terms of volume, accounting for 29% of total investment in the region. The US$8.8 billion worth of transactions completed in the country during the first six months of the year, a rise of 62% year-on-year, was only slightly below the all-time high recorded in the first half of 2007. There was a steady flow of small and medium sized transactions involving the acquisition of assets in Tokyo as the period witnessed growing interest on the part foreign investors looking to return to the market and expand their Japanese portfolios.

Russian Summit Could Be Important to Overseas Property Industry

global-edge-RUSSIAN_SUMMIT-November2010 Many overseas property agents could will and should be excited by a new event announced this week. Global Edge have partnered with AiGroup — the Russian media company behind Russia’s biggest overseas property portal (1-property.ru) — to set up and host Russian Summit, a chance for the world’s overseas property agents to learn about the Russian market, and importantly to gain contacts that will refer business in a mutually beneficial arrangement. It could well become known as an important event for the industry.

The collapse of British demand for overseas property crippled many markets, not least Dubai, Cyprus and of course Spain. The latter split into regions gives even more locations that felt the severe pain of the British-buyer exodus.

Even now demand from British buyers is at nowhere near the same levels as seen in the run up to the 2008 crash, and of the overseas property markets that are leading the recovery, Russian buyers is a common phrase that we are hearing.

Of course Russian buyers are no new phenomenon. They became a big and growingly important market in the overseas property world towards the latter part of 2007 and into 2008.

Press Release: New Event to Help International Agents do Business in Russia

A new event to be held in Moscow on 11th & 12th November aims to help international agents break into the potentially lucrative Russian buyer market.

Russian Summit brings together some of the biggest agents working in international real estate in Russia such as Intermark Savills, Knight Frank Russia and Gordon Rock; with an audience of international agents and developers from destinations across the globe.

Ashley Rigg, director of co-organizer Globaledge.co.uk believes the event is an industry first:

Press Release: Office Rents in Asia Rise 2.1% Ending Seven Consecutive Quarters of Decline

Greater China leads regional growth in demand for premium office

4 August 2010 Asia — Asia’s leading commercial centres recorded impressive growth in office demand in the second quarter of 2010 as the steady regional economic recovery encouraged multinational companies to reactivate expansion plans suspended earlier after the onset of the global financial crisis, according to a leading international property consultants CB Richard Ellis.

Led by strong growth in Greater China, overall office rents in Asia rose 2.1% in the second quarter of 2010, ending seven consecutive quarters of decline. Overall vacancy declined by 90 basis points quarter-on-quarter to 10.9%. The increased level of enquiry for office space during the second quarter did not immediately translate into leasing transactions. However, this suggests that the leasing market will remain active over the coming quarters.

Conservative Asian Buyers Snapping Up Distressed US Property

A survey by a US realtors group has highlighted a remarkable rise in the number of Asian and Asian-Americans buying houses in the US. The consensus is that the demographic primarily avoided being caught in the housing crash, because they tend to be conservative towards property purchases, and that now they are capitalising on the fact that they have the cash and the credit to get good deals on homes.

According to the California Association of Realtors Annual Housing Market Survey, the proportion of ethnically Asian — most commonly Asian Indian, Japanese, Chinese or Filipino — buyers rose 3.8% between 2007 and 2008 and a further 2.3% between 2008 and 2009. This left the total proportion at 18.1 percent in 2009, up from 12% in 2007. The surveys also tell us that the proportion of Asian buyers never went higher than 12% even at the height of the boom (2003-2006).

Leslie Appleton-Young, chief economist for the California Association of Realtors (CAR), said the change in the proportion over time was noteworthy.

“They’re buying in distressed markets and utilizing (government incentive) programs,” she said.

The trend has also been noted by local realtors in San Diego and Southwest Riverside counties, who said that Asian’s tend to be uncomfortable taking on too much debt, and have preferred to invest in their small business rather than buy property during the boom.

“Asians are very conservative when it comes to buying,” said Scripps Ranch realtor and president of the San Diego chapter of the Asian Real Estate Association of America, Shonee Henry, “We don’t go out there and buy, and forget about what’s going to happen tomorrow. We tend to make sure we have enough money to support ourselves and everyday expenses.”

Henry mused that homes being too expensive was also a reason for Asians holding off buying during the boom:

“They might have had the down payment, but the monthly payments were too high,” she said.

Now that average house prices are down 35% the conservative Asians are in the fortunate position of having sizeable down-payments.

The CAR survey said Asian buyers put down an average down-payment of $90,000 in 2009, triple that of non-Asians. This was mostly in the form of 20% of the purchase price, compared to the 10% stumped up by non-Asian buyers. Appleton-Young said Asians may be avoiding low-down-payment programs such as those offered by the Federal Housing Administration.

This is one trend that is not echoed however; Ric Manalo, a Realtor with offices in Temecula and Chula Vista, said that Asian buyers in Southwest Riverside were making use of low-down-payment programs.

“The margin between what it costs to rent a home and what it costs to buy a home is so small, most of these are FHA and VA (Department of Veterans Affairs) deals they can get in for very little money,” he said.

Henry pointed out variations between the different nationalities; she said that her Filipino buyers went with low down-payment programs, while Chinese buyers tended to have cash for big down payments.
