Social housing refers to residential properties supported by the government, designed to provide accommodation for low-income earners, public servants and workers who have not yet secured stable housing. Aimed at enhancing living standards and ensuring social welfare, social housing projects are being actively developed across the country.

Hanoi is actively launching numerous social housing developments to meet the growing housing demand. Here are some prominent projects:

Social housing projects in Ho Chi Minh City
HCMC is also accelerating social housing development to meet increasing demand. The city plans to complete four projects totaling 2,874 apartments and start construction on eight more with nearly 8,000 units, serving thousands of low-income residents by 2025.
Buying and transferring social housing
The purchase and transfer of social housing are strictly regulated to uphold social welfare objectives. Under the 2023 Housing Law, effective from August 1, 2024, buyers of social housing apartments are allowed to sell after 5 years without paying land use fees. Specifically, five years after full payment, owners may sell the property on the open market to eligible buyers, provided a certificate of ownership has been issued.
Key notes on social housing transfer:
-
Ownership duration: Social housing can only be freely transferred after five years of use. Within this period, if owners wish to sell, they must sell to government agencies or eligible individuals at regulated prices.
-
Transfer pricing: The resale price cannot exceed the original purchase price plus reasonable renovation or repair costs.
-
Legal procedures: The transfer contract must be notarized or certified and submitted to the relevant authorities to ensure legal validity.
