As land prices increase in the Cambodian capital’s CBD, property developers are seeking open land on the outskirts of Phnom Penh. One area that has seen continuous growth in recent years is the city’s Northwestern districts of Russey Keo.For the most part, the Northwest is becoming a haven for Khmer families looking to settle outside the inner city. Stretching between two major township developments of Camko City and Grand Phnom Penh, a host of Boreys and township projects are springing up, suited to local buyers budgets and tastes, according to In Sitha, Vice President of World Trust Estate. Developments such as Peng Hout the Star Premier, New World Kilometer No.5, Borey Toul Sangke, Borey Villa Toul Sangke, Borey Vimean Phnom Penh, Borey Angkor Phnom Penh, Borey Rith, New World Toul Sangke, Borey China Town, Borey Laoar Penh Chet 1 and 2, BS Villa Phsar Touch, Flat house Mittapheap 1 & 2, Borey Beoung Chuok, Borey Lim Cheanghak (CTN), Borey Sreng Kong, Borey Moha Sethey, The Residence, Borey Rattanak, Borey Monorom, Borey LHV, Borey Hong Leng Yi, Flat House Kim Bo, Borey Mongkul Phnom Penh, Flat house GTC, Borey Komel are just a few of these new projects, offering shop houses, link houses, villas and affordable apartment properties, all aimed at local buyers.Chee Yap, Project Director at Grand Phnom Penh, a 260-hectare township project, believes that new infrastructural developments along Chea Sophara Road, Road 598 and Hanoi Road are effectively bringing the outer reaches of Russey Keo closer to the central city in terms of accessibility and vital amenities. Phnom Penh City Hall have also suggested that Angkor Boulevard, otherwise known as Camko Road, will eventually link Grand Phnom Penh and Camko City directly, speeding up commuting times to the central city dramatic for the city’s Northwestern residents. Aeon Mall 2, slated for construction along Street 1003, is likewise encouraging a flurry of investor speculation in this area.David Kim, CEO of Informax Real Estate Services, explains that this outward shift in residential offerings reflects the rising land prices in downtown Phnom Penh, such as Beung Keng Kang, Daun Penh, and Tonle Bassac. “Because the land prices and rental rates in these areas are at an all time high,” says Kim, “Khmers who own land here no longer want to stay there, as they are effectively sitting on their money. Instead, they can sell at a large profit, or rent that space at high rates of return, and settle in the Northwest.”Chroy Changvar is another area growing fast, but the need to cross the bridge to get to the city, in combination with a lack of commercial and retail ventures in the area, is at present limiting the area’s popularity for both developers and end buyers, suggests Kim. Similarly, the south of Phnom Penh, along Hun Sen Road, is also growing, but more time is needed before the infrastructure meets many buyers’ expectations. The West of Phnom Penh has the international airport and a broad array of commercial activity, but this area is less popular for development companies looking to the local market because it is now limited in regards to open and affordable land for new large scale developments. “Northwestern Phnom Penh and Russey Keo,”compares Kim, “has no bridge and neighbours Toul Kork, a booming commercial area with all amenities necessary for mass residential expansion.” For these reasons, the Northwest developments are proving more popular with Khmer buyers, and consequently a lower risk for development investors. Just a brief glance at an aerial view of the city shows that large green areas of totally undeveloped land still exist on the Northwest side of the city, meaning first stage developers can buy land cheap, fill the land and apply for necessary planning permissions and infrastructural additions from the Government, then upsell that land to sub-developers who then begin to build. The lower the original price of the land, the more affordable the final housing project can be sold for by the sub-developer. “Land is cheaper in the Northwest, hence why the finished projects are more affordable for local buyers,” concludes Kim.Yap notes that from a macro-perspective, Northwestern Phnom Penh is guaranteed to grow into the future. “In property development there is always ‘the rule of the triangle’: If you plan a residential project within equidistance of a city’s CBD and it’s International Airport, and you ensure your project reflects local demands, it will succeed.

At the end of 2015, the 10 ASEAN nation states are on track to create the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC) as a means to support the free flow of labour across Asia, and benefit all economies falling within the AEC by sharing human resources. Cambodia is expected to gain benefits through increases in foreign direct investment into the Cambodian market -but how the AEC will change the face of the domestic Cambodian labor market remains uncertain. With the ASEAN Economic Integration at the end of this year, Cambodia seemingly must strengthen its capacity in terms of human resources and professional expertise if it is to meet the regional market’s demand when the AEC integration fully comes into play. After the integration, labor flow will increase considerably for professionals with internationally transferable skill sets, such as accountants, health professionals, engineers, researchers and tourism workers. These Cambodian professionals will now be able to apply for positions throughout the region without restriction, and potentially gain higher wages. Chan Sophal, Director of the Centre for Policy Studies in Cambodia, said the AEC will bring new labor flows to professions that require high skill labor inside and outside of Cambodia.  This means, ' ... Enterprises in need of skilled workers within Cambodia will be able to hire them more easily than at present because the potential market will be larger,” he said.    As inter-ASEAN competition increases between its members in terms of labor flows, Cambodia must strengthen the aggregate capacity of its own human resources in order to meet the competitive labor market of ASEAN in the coming years, and to ensure employment opportunities inside and outside of Cambodia. In order to strengthen the labor market for the AEC, Sophal said, “the number one priority must be to better train and educate our students. This is the only way we can compete.” In regards to whether Cambodia is ready for the ASEAN economic integration, Sophal explained that, “While I think we have strengths and weaknesses within the Cambodian market, ASEAN, fully integrated, will provide opportunities to attract domestic investment that will in return create jobs for skilled and unskilled workers within Cambodia. In addition, new competition in the labor market within Cambodia is seemingly going to be limited due to the variability of criteria that may or may not attract workers to Cambodia.” Chrek Sok Ny, CEO of Century 21 Mekong, said the present Cambodian market is getting ready for the integration in many ways: 'I think it's beneficial to bring in new technologies and methods for construction into Cambodia in regards to construction standards and levels of development. But meanwhile, the AEC will boost Cambodian economy and strengthen cultural connectivity of all member countries. There will be free flow of goods and labor, and Cambodian workers will migrate for jobs abroad; whereas skilled workers from member countries will enter Cambodia filling the increasing demand for higher skilled positions that this development demands.” A joint publication released by the ADB and ILO at the end of last year, showed that Cambodia could be one of the leading beneficiaries of the AEC through the creation of an estimated additional 1.1 million jobs by 2025. Low-skilled jobs will account for 71.2 percent of this increase, predicts the publication, meanwhile, medium-skilled professional roles may increase by around 722,000 jobs. Despite that, the same publication goes on to say that Cambodians may well lose their domestic employment opportunities if there is no improvement in the market in regards to workers’ training and education. Furthermore, domestic higher-skilled workers may still look to migrate outside of Cambodia, as opportunities for higher salaries will now be available.

The northern part of Phnom Penh has been attracting many residential and commercial developers – the reason being that the area is still relatively quiet and has no traffic congestion problems compared to its big city neighbor. The northern areas along National Road 6 are seeing fast development now that Chroy Chongvar II Bridge is available for public use. Many new projects are appearing, such as Chroy Chongvar City, Borey Peng Hout, Borey River Town, and Borey Mekong River. In addition, the government has been building Morodok Decho Stadium to host the ASIAN Games in 2023. Meanwhile, Ly Yong Phat, Director of the Ly Yong Phat Group, is planning to move a Safari Zone from Koh Kong to the area along National Road 6. ​A group of real estate experts said the property situation at the northern part of National Road 6 shows huge potential, and growth in residential projects appears to continue unabated.  ​ Kek Narin, an independent real estate analyst, said the area along National Road 6 has great potential for residential and commercial development, mainly because the area is sandwiched by rivers. Consequently, if there is a company investing in building and infrastructure along the river bank, it will become a great satellite city in the future. “Personally, I also want to move to this area because the area has fresh air and a good environment. If we travel along that road, we feel fresher and better than we do along National Road 4 - which is very noisy,” he said. “The area will be developed very fast because land is very attainable here.” The area has Prek Leab, Prek Ta Sek, and Backeng communes, and is altogether known as Chroy Chongvar district, Phnom Penh. Po Eavkong, General Manager of Asia Real Estate, said that after the National Road 6 expansion, provided by a loan from the Chinese government, the area from the Chroy Chongvar Bridge to Prek Ta Meak Bridge saw big changes, very quickly - such as Boreys, and small, medium, and even big businesses popping up along the road. Due to the favorable qualities and potential of the area, land prices are set to increase between 10 and 15 percent per annum, says Eavkong. Land prices along the National Road 6 from Chroy Chongvar Bridge to Borey Mekong Royal start from $400 to $800 per square meter, and sub road prices range from $100 to $150. Land that stretches from The Mekong Royal to Ly Yong Phat’s land ranges from $200 to $400 per square meter, and land from Ly Yong Phat’s land to Prek Ta Meak Bridge is priced from $100 to $200 per square meter, he said. “The area has become a residential-developed zone which is seeing huge interest from investors. It not only has residences, but also high-rise buildings,” Eavkong said. “If we talk about environment and fresh air, and infrastructure, they are all good enough, but I observe that one negative point is that the Phnom Penh municipality has not yet built the sewage system along the Road 6.” Mr. Ly Yong Phat said he planned to inject about $1 million into the area to build his safari zone, which he plans to move from Koh Kong to Phnom Penh. The Phnom Penh based safari is slated to open in early 2016. The size of the safari in Phnom Penh is about the same as Koh Kong’s, but it will be of an improved quality, says Phat. In regards to the Decho Satellite City, Mr. Phat said, “We need a partner to build this satellite city because we cannot do it alone as its size is about 1700 hectares - so big.” The satellite city project is aimed at all strata of people, but he did not confirm when the project will start or finish. Hor Vandy, co-President of the Tourism Group, said the safari zone in Phnom Penh would be a tourism product which international tourists will demand. This will mean some will stay longer in Cambodia than previously - and in Phnom Penh in particular.   If the safari zone is connected with Ta Mao Zoo, tourism companies can prepare a good tour package for tourists, and the tourists will not hesitate to travel more around Cambodia, he said. “Moving the safari from Koh Kong to Phnom Penh is a good decision, for there are not many people in Koh Kong and tourism penetration is low. Phnom Penh has about 2 million people and about 2 million tourists, and tourists are increasing from 7 to 8 million per annum,” Vandy said.

The increase in high-rise buildings across Phnom Penh is not only turning Phnom Penh into business and commercial hub, it is also attracting more foreign investors to inject their investment capital into the country. Sear Rithy, CEO of WorldBridge Land, is currently cooperating with Singapore-based Oxley Holding International to invest in ‘The Bridge’ development, a 45 floor, $300 million project. The same company is also preparing to build the Shangri-la Hotel in Phnom Penh, and three commercial buildings known as ‘The Peak,’ with 55 floors each, located near Diamond Island. Sear Rithy says that the emerging skyline in Phnom Penh is really attractive for investment.  "When foreigners visit Cambodia, they will be interested in projects like ours. If there are many high-rise buildings, they realize this country has been developing and they are interested in investing. They will then consider the legal system and government policy, economic growth, and political stability," he said. "Investment will grow along with the high-rise buildings."  The speed of development shall depend on each government's policy; however, Sear Rithy believes we are currently on the right track. Cambodia is better than all other ASEAN countries, besides Singapore, in regards to the conditions for increased FDI - because the Cambodian government allows foreign investors to own a one hundred per cent share of a company, they are exempt from tax for importing products and tax rates generally in Cambodia are lower.  "Cambodia has adopted a multi-ownership law which allows foreigners to own from the first floor up, which is good because it helps foreigners to be more confident in their ownership rights. It's like Cambodians trying to buy property abroad without having their name on the title of the property. Is it a worry? Yes, of course it is," he said.  According to an unreleased report by the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction that looked at 600 new buildings both finished and under construction, Phnom Penh’s development has been broken down into three categories. While the city is still dominated by buildings that range from five to nine floors, at a total of 361 buildings, it is not a surprise that their numbers showed a growing trend towards upward development. The report found that there are 167 buildings between 10 to 19 floors, 21 buildings were between 21 to 29 floors, while only twelve were above 30 floors, four of which are over 40 floors. Lao Tip Seiha, Deputy General Director of the Construction Department of the Ministry Of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction, said looking at the change in Phnom Penh’s skyline is an indicator of the country’s development. If compared to neighboring countries, he said that Phnom Penh’s growth is following the same path as other major cities and that the high-rise developments reflect adequate urban planning and infrastructure advances. “More high-rise buildings illustrate that Cambodia has achieved more than it ever has before,” he said. “Foreigners who visited Cambodia even five years ago are surprised by the achievement.”Chrek Soknim, CEO of Century 21 Mekong, agreed that having high-rise buildings could well give more investment potential to Cambodia. He now sees a Chinese company planning to invest in a 500-meter building with high standards in Cambodia, and this reflects a good sign for the country. "Having more high-rise buildings will mean we attract more investors. If there are more investments such as this Chinese example, and they move their head office here, we will get more advantages for the greater economy," Soknim said.  "Cambodia does not have many big companies placing head offices here, so we have more potential to come in the future. But I believe we will attract them to bring their head offices here. Consequently, the GDP of Cambodia will increase to another level," he said.

Cambodian real estate has seen increases in land prices and investment that has quickly changed the face of the country, and its profile within the region. Yet, the question is whether the sector will continue to grow in the long-term. There are optimistic responses – but also some warnings from economists and real estate industry commentators.Po Eav Kong, General Manager of Asia Real Estate, said that there are two driving forces behind the progress in this sector.  The first force is ongoing political stability. This has equaled economic growth for Cambodia, a stable macro-economy and support for other sectors that contribute to overall economic growth. The construction sector investment, for example, increased from $900 million in 2010 to about $2 billion last year. The second force to look at is capital inflow, the economic and financial flows that have occurred, and regional changes in these flows.  An example is the new Vietnamese real estate law that took effect a few months ago. It allows foreigners to own land and residential property. This means competition for foreign investment between Vietnam and Cambodia will increase. Yet, despite these changes, legal systems and practice, and demographics, all factor into foreign investment decisions. “I think overall the countries’ investment potential in real estate is still prominent because of our continued economic growth and stability,” said Po, “the sector will continue to grow for the next few years, but in the long-term I cannot predict because politics and the economy are not yet independent from one another.” Po said the flow of new investors from Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Singapore and China, and the increased size of the countries’ middle-class, as well as a continuing supply of cheap labor, are all parts of the attraction for foreign investors coming into Cambodia. Vorn Chanthorn, CEO of Town City Real Estate, seems positive about the growth in real estate. Chanthorn believes the sector will continue to expand thanks to the stable environment and continued economic growth. He also suggests that average people and the Government are more aware of the importance of supporting the sector. “The government has a good policy to attract foreign investors - they are allowed to buy houses in Cambodia from the first floor up regardless of their nationality.” He added, “I think there will be new policy in the future to encourage more investment.”Chanthorn’s forecast is seemingly sound, since recently the government has adopted policies to boost the economy through promotion of the industrial sector. Its new economic development policy aims to draw in investors by replacing the primarily labor-driven economy with a technology-driven one.   However, Soeng Bonna, CEO of Bonna Realty Group, is cautious when it comes to risks and growth of this sector. He said it is difficult at this stage to conclude if growth still exists in the long run for these sectors - especially after the ASEAN Economic integration. If things remain as the status quo, the property sector will move forward, but we do not know how attractive big development projects will be to investors or how well they will do. 'So far, I have no knowledge if those already proposed major projects will continue, but smaller domestic projects will go forward.” He added, “It will be less profitable for bigger projects if there are many smaller ones priced from $2,500 to $3,000 per square meter. Those big projects will fall flat if foreigners’ demand for condos does not exist. Domestic demand will, however, continue.” For Bonna, economic growth and political stability in Cambodia have yet to show signs of discouragement. Yet, the government reforms do not look particularly attractive to investors either. So, it is clear that today’s condo demand (before ASEAN integration) is lower than the supply. Mey Kalyan, economist and senior adviser of the Supreme Economic Council, has warned that people should be very careful saying, ‘houses are like body fat.’ Rather, consuming too much fat at once is not advisable; building too many houses while the demand for them remains low will not do the economy any good. Modern condos are not very productive; it is similar to when someone buys a luxurious car for themselves, as opposed to a bus which he or she could easily rent for profit. He added, “We can hustle the market, but when it comes to real estate it is always a two-edge sword. If you buy as an investment or as a speculator, problems will arise. If you are buying with the expectation to keep the property and sell it for profit, foreigners can do so now as the price is reasonable for them for this dual-benefit purpose.”The Ministry of Finance predicted in early July that Cambodia's economy will continue to maintain a growth rate of seven percent for the rest of the year, as it did last year, and the main sectors contributing to this growth are those of textile, construction and real estate. Mr. Faisal Ahmed, IMF Resident Representative to Cambodia, said the real estate and construction sectors in Cambodia have helped spur economic growth and political stability because the sectors have provided lots of jobs to people and have significantly boosted income into the financial sector. However, the growth of supply that exceeds demand should remain under precise scrutiny.However, Arn Channy, Sales and Marketing Executive of World City, which has been developing the satellite city CAMKO CITY, said from now into the next five years real estate in Cambodia will still be growing due to the increased demand and high number of investors. When the full ASEAN integration is realized at the end of the year, Cambodia will benefit a lot because the inflow of people to find work and investment will consequently raise the demand for housing.  He said, “Cambodia has huge potential for the future to come.” Realestate.com.kh is proud to support the CVEA's Property View publication.

Bodaiju Residences is an ensemble of six 14-storey buildings woven into the tropical landscape.

Full-service apartments provide almost everything you could want in a Phnom Penh apartment. Learn more about Phnom Penh rentals and other Cambodian rental advice here. Expect, at minimum, western style architecture and interior layouts, natural light, views, modern equipped kitchen including an oven, modern bathrooms, and expansive closets.

Serviced apartments are generally easy to find in the city, but expect prices to be higher than other types of accommodation, and don’t be surprised if vacancy rates low. Service apartments are somewhat impersonal, compared to other types of Phnom Penh rentals. Due to their size and relative vacancies, it may be more difficult to get to know your neighbors or your landlord. For a young professional or family, however, this extra space and privacy may be appreciated. They are also generally high rise apartments, so chances are you can land a great view of the city! Rough Price Range for 1 Bedroom Service Apartments:CBD - Chamkarmon, Daun Penh = $1000 – $1700 per month;Outskirts - Toul Kork, Sen Sok, Olympic, Toul Tom Poung = $800 – $1200 per month.2) Western Style Apartments in Phnom Penh: A “Western Style” apartment is a term that is thrown around a lot on the Phnom Penh rental market – and those properties fitting this description can vary widely. A “western” apartment can in fact represent anything from a few apartment units on the third floor, to a unit within a high-rise multi-unit tower. However, generally, those properties termed as western-style apartments in Phnom Penh have more amenities than those sold as Khmer-style units. So called “Western apartments” are generally newly constructed, have windows in every room and plenty of natural light, western style toilets and a kitchen with full cooking amenities; this should include all standard appliances and plenty of cabinet space, counter space, and an integrated cooktop. Often these apartment’s bathrooms will include a hot shower, a bathtub and floor tiles. A western style apartment should have a larger living space with somewhat modern lighting fixtures. Western apartments will also generally be furnished, and with furnishing such as plush sofa’s – as opposed to purely wooden furniture preferred in traditional khmer houses. Internet, cable, water and sometimes cleaning are generally included in the rental rate. Some of these properties will have elevators and might even have shared rooftop terrace areas. Expect parking for bicycles and motos. You should always get an air conditioner – in fact, this can be the sole reason the seller has called it “western.” Essentially, the “Western” label should lead you to believe that the construction is of a higher standard, as is the overall security of the building. For a foreigner there is also the benefit of having many foreign tenants, making it easy to make friends when your first settle in. Owners of western apartments are generally more experienced with this market and will follow through with your rental maintenance requests. Price Range For 1 Bedroom Western Apartments (non serviced):CBD - Chamkarmon, Daun Penh = $600 – $1000 per month;Outskirts - Toul Kork, Sen Sok, Olympic, Toul Tom Poung = $500 – $700 per month.3) Khmer-style Shop House: A Khmer-style shophouse is still one of the most common property types in Phnom Penh, found in nearly every Phnom Penh neighborhood. They can also be built into three or four-story low-rise row homes. A shophouse, khmer style, is generally about four meters in width and roughly 16 meters long. The doors to enter will be in the front or back of the shop house, and the walls on either side will almost always have no windows. In a khmer-style shophouse, bedrooms won’t generally have windows, and if they do, they will face toward the interior of the home as opposed to the outside – thus, generally providing no natural light. Bedrooms will normally have movable dressers or rattan shelving, as opposed to inbuilt storage space provided in the more modern designs of apartments. Kitchen layouts in Khmer-style shop houses are generally fairly basic too. Expect to see a sink or two and a one burner gas cooktop. Don’t expect an oven and you will be lucky if you get much cabinet space. Learn more about Phnom Penh rental market and other Cambodian rental advice here. Don’t expect hot water, anywhere in the house. Bathrooms generally won’t have a separate shower or windows - but will be well equipped with floor to ceiling tiles, and the infamous bum gun. Bathrooms are just “wet rooms” without a separate shower in many cases. Home furnishings are seldom included, and if they are, expect them to be either rattan or wood. Expect, in terms of furnishings, no more than chairs, coffee table, and a table for eating. Although basic, shop houses are still surprisingly popular with foreign renters. Ultimately, their simplicity creates a kind of charm – and the price gap between these common shop houses, and new serviced units entering the market, are incomparable. Those that accept these shophouses for long term rents are generally expecting the landlord to make improvements or are being permitted by the landlord to make changes and modifications to the home themselves. With the right design and decoration, this style of house can be tailored to your preferences, and made to look much more valuable than their rental price. Expect to live close to your neighbors and get to know your neighborhood – which is a valuable experience for many expat renters. Here's a check list for securing your dream Phnom Penh rental!

Although a relative newcomer the market, Bodaiju Residences has already sold over 60 per cent of Phase 1, according to Tomohiro Yakushi, vice president of the Japanese developer Creed Group. See the listing here.Yakushi believes that the reason for this is that most new developments across Phnom Penh aim solely to capture foreign investors but, Bodaiju Residences, the largest development in Cambodia by a Japanese Company, has gained huge interest by local investors and home owners who understand market potential and the need for well-financed projects in Cambodia, especially those located in strategic areas.In fact, Her Excellency Louk Sovanna from the newly formed KH Niron Investment company, a local property investor, has already announced that they have purchased 37 units at a total cost of around $5 million, according to a recent report in the Phnom Penh Post.“Unlike other condominium projects that mainly target foreigners, we aim to target locals pursuing home ownership and high standards of living,” said Yakushi. Bodaiju Residences have already gained local confidence:  the key to success in the Cambodian new developments market.“We mainly want local people to live here - not only foreign investors buying and selling condo units. We want to add real value,” Yakushi said. Hence, the majority of sales thus far are local Cambodians, at around 65 percent of Phase 1 sales; in addition, Korean buyers represent 15% of phase 1 sales, Japanese equate to 10%, Singaporean, 5%, and the remaining 5% of the units have been sold to other nationalities. This demographic will provide a multicultural and vibrant community in Bodaiju Residences.Inquire about Bodaiju Residences today on Realestate.com.kh and find out more!Based on current sales success, the Creed group predicts that at least 75 per cent of sales in Phase 1 will be complete in October 2015, according to a recent interview with the Phnom Penh Post.Creed is also making financing available, for local and international buyers. In fact, financing is available for up to 90 per cent of the property value by ORO Financecorp—a subsidiary of Creed Group— meaning that property investors can acquire loans starting from as low as 5 per cent interest.“This means that the low-entry investment starts at $100,000,” Yakushi adds. The average net selling price of Bodaiju units is $1,600 to $1,700 per square metre.The Bodaiju Residences project is the first and biggest project to be invested in outside of the city center and instead in front of Pochentong International Airport. This shall be the future focal point of Phnom Penh, and is an attractive position for investment based on rising land prices. It is a widely known developer's rule that very few property markets around the world fail to grow in areas near international airports.Inquire about Bodaiju Residences today on Realestate.com.kh and find out more!

Are you an Expat expecting just a temporary stay in the Kingdom? Are you nervous about signing long-term leases when you are not sure if you can satisfy the contract length? Are you finding that most Cambodian landlords are unwilling to have tenants stay for less than six months? Here is a guide to Long v Short Term Rental Lease in Cambodia, from Realestate.com.kh.Learn more about Phnom Penh rental market and other Cambodian rental advice here.Here's a check list for securing your dream Phnom Penh rental!Benefits of a Long Term Lease:Signing a six-month or year lease locks in a rental price in a market that is growing in leaps and bounds every year.Rental rates climb 10-15% annually in Cambodia, especially in the urban and tourism centers, and as new buildings offering all types of modern amenities continue to enter the rental market, these prices will continue to rise.A long term lease will save you from a price hike when the lease term ends and you are no longer able to find an apartment of the same value for the same price.Signing a long-term lease will also grant higher negotiating power: the landlord should be more flexible because they know you will stay for a longer period of time. They may add furnishing that you request, and negotiate on set rates.Remember that most owners want to build and maintain a relationship with their tenants. A long term lease allows this trust to develop.If you end up securing a lease for longer than you are able to stay in Cambodia, many expats are seeking shorter length, sub-lease agreements. This will give you the opportunity to finish your lease agreement payments through a sub-lease with a short term tenant. It pays to check with the landlord that will be possible before signing the leasing contract.Alternative, the landlord may allow you to transfer the entire lease to a new tenant that you have found - if you can't satisfy the contract.

If they are, let them know that they will have an opportunity to screen the new sub-leasing tenant before they are accepted. Also, check whether they are open to transferring the bond to the new sub-leasing tenant. If the new landlord accepts these terms, the additional lease length shouldn't be such a risk to you.Remember, negotiation is about compromise. Consider the landlords objectives and unique circumstances - and try to compormise a rental agreement where both parties can feel satisfied. Here is some useful real estate negotiation advice.
