Another 1,123 projects have proposed solutions, while 155 require decisions from the National Assembly, the Government, or the Prime Minister.
The Ministry of Finance plans to continue reviewing data and categorizing issues related to land, construction, planning, investment procedures, and contractor selection through 2026, submitting findings for resolution. This effort aims to get projects operational and boost GDP growth. In Ho Chi Minh City, officials cleared obstacles for 650 projects, releasing over 30,691 hectares and 658.084 trillion dong in investment.
Lê Hoàng Châu, Chairman of the Ho Chi Minh City Real Estate Association (HoREA), noted that resolving these projects led to positive changes in the city’s real estate market in the first seven months of 2026. Thirty-seven projects were approved for capital mobilization, offering 27,374 units, a 1.64-fold increase compared to all of 2025. However, Châu also stated that high interest rates and limited access to credit continue to hamper purchasing power, affecting businesses’ cash flow and liquidity.
