Analysis: Vietnam’s real estate market is in crisis: 135,000+ properties sit unsold while regular families can’t afford basic housing. A 2020–2022 speculation bubble saw prices soar, then crash by 2024, leaving investors trapped in debt. Many complexes in cities like Nhơn Trạch and Bình Dương are nearly empty.
