Knight Frank, the independent global property consultancy, has recently released a new report on the Asia-Pacific Prime Office Rental Index for Q2 2017. According to the report, the index increased 1.2% quarter-on-quarter and 0.6% year-on-year as at the end of the second quarter of 2017.The increase in the index was the result of rising rents in 15 out of the 20 markets tracked over the quarter. Phnom Penh topped the chart this quarter at 4.2% increase quarter-on-quarter, compared to a flat performance in the last quarter, says Knight Frank report.The completion of Exchange Square not only set a new benchmark standard for Grade-A office, but its strong pre-commitment level also boosted prime rental levels in the Cambodian capital.In the first half of 2017, the regional economies of China, ASEAN-5 and Japan performed considerably better than expected, as the IMF revised its growth projections upwards for emerging and developing Asia.Nicholas Holt, Head of Research for Asia-Pacific, says, “The pickup in global trade and domestic demand has negated geo-political risks to a certain extent, thereby providing a strong foundation for the Asia-Pacific prime office markets.” Over the next 12 months, Mr. Holt expects rents in 15 cities out of the 20 tracked to either remain steady or increase, which is the same as his previous forecast.Meanwhile, the latest report by Knight Frank Cambodia shows that as at H1 2017 the Phnom Penh office stock was recorded at more than 330, 000 sqm of net lettable area (NLA) showing a 21% increase in office supply when compared with over 271, 000 sqm of NLA recorded at H1 2016.During H1 2017, more than 48, 000 sqm of office was delivered across 8 projects with Exchange Square being the only Grade A building adding approximately 18, 000 sqm to the prime office supply. The new supply included City Tower Asia, Bred Bank building, Sokea International,  Aston Tower, Time Tower, Lone Building and 79 Office Tower.However, according to Knight Frank Cambodia report, the majority of the existing office supply remains Grade B and C buildings while Grade A office represents only 16% of the total supply. This share is expected to rise significantly as 72% of the incoming supply is Grade A space as developers shift focus from residential development to commercial development in view of current supply and demand dynamics.Overall office occupancy showed an increase of 2.5 percentage points QoQ from 82.7% in Q1 2017 to 85.2% in Q2 2017. Grade A office occupancy has reached 59.8% due to the successful pre-leasing of Exchange Square and the leasing of space within Vattanac Capital.Asking rents for prime office space as at H1 2017 ranged from US$19 to US$38 per sqm per month. The completion of Exchange Square during the second quarter of 2017 has resulted in a stabilisation of rental prices for Grade A offices leaving potential tenants in a stronger negotiating position.Ross Wheble, Country Director of Knight Frank Cambodia, expects demand for office space in Cambodia to increase over the medium term as the kingdom continues to attract foreign investment. However, the significant Grade A incoming office supply will require suitable pricing in order to attract tenants.Looking for office for rent in Cambodia? Find it on Realestate.com.kh!

In order to get the best insight into the future of the Cambodian market, one needs to examine its complexities by looking at past trials and victories, current events, and the outside factors that contribute to its growth. This is exactly what Dr. Sok Siphana, founder and managing partner ofSok Siphana & Associates, said during his presentation at the Cambodia Real Estate Show in May this year.Where does Cambodia stand?Siphana explains that Cambodia has progressed significantly in the last two decades, backing up his claim with data gathered by ASEAN and the AmCham of Singapore. It is thanks to Cambodia’seconomic progress that not only has the country been listed as one of the “Olympians of Growth,” joining the ranks of China, Laos, India, and Vietnam - but also listed by the Asian DevelopmentBank (ADB) as one of the new “Tiger Economies In Asia,” and declared a lower-middle income economy by the International Monetary Fund (IMF).  Siphana confirms that trade, which is growing in leaps and bounds, is one of the key drivers of the country’s economy. In fact, Cambodia is an active trading partner of ASEAN as well as of other major markets like the EU and the US – focusing on exporting finished goods directly to the market and importing raw materials for the industrial sector. In 2015, the export volume worldwide amounted to $8.5 billion and the import volume a whopping $10.6 billion. He explains that the increasing trade volume was due to growth in agriculture, manufacturing, and the construction boom that Cambodia has been experiencing.“For 20-something years we have managed to come from a war-torn country - with nothing - to being an Olympian of Growth. So, we must say that we are doing very well,” Siphana confirms.He also attributes the growth to the accession of Cambodia to the WTO; explaining that in 2004, Cambodia joined the WTO and that is when the country opened up the whole economy, and the effect of this economic liberalization begun to take place. And that explains why Cambodia is now doing so well. But the question remains. With everything happening now, will Cambodia remain a growing economy?How are world events going to affect the Cambodian economy?Siphana paints a backdrop using world events to portray changes that may occur in Cambodia in the near future.He explains that Donald Trump’s victory will cause divisions - as a result of his “Make America Great Again” movement; and that America’s gain may be at the detriment of others. The relationship between the US and North Korea is also worrying. A threat of nuclear war has the world unsettled.A glimmer of hope, however, lies in increased Chinese investments – especially with the Belt and Road Initiative well underway. Siphana assures that while Cambodia is not exactly in tranquil waters, because of some regional issues, this isn’t enough to cause an egress in the economy. Nonetheless, he explains that on the issues of the South China Sea, the willingness of President Duterte to open a dialogue with China has resulted in less tension at the ASEAN summit, showing the possibility of more stable waters to sail in future.Interest in ASEAN remains high with some people still wanting to invest in this potential association. In this context, Siphana praises Cambodia’s economic performance and potential, saying: “for Cambodia we’re not doing so bad. There’s still some serious investors very keen to invest in the country. We still have a very strong attraction in terms of people who come to invest in ASEAN. And people in ASEAN invest in Cambodia.” Still, some of Cambodia’s biggest investors so far come from China, Japan, Thailand, Korea, and the U.S.What policies are being developed to strengthen Cambodia’s economy?The vision of the Royal Government of Cambodia is to create a modernized industrial make-up for the country - a make-up that focuses on being a skills driven industry rather than a labor intensive one. With this aim, Cambodia needs to strengthen its linkages with the regional and global value chainsand deepen its integration into regional production networks by developing clusters of interconnected manufacturing production. Furthermore, Cambodia needs to strengthen the competitiveness and productivity of its domestic industries by moving toward modernizing technology and knowledge based industries.Trade, one of the biggest industries in the country, has thus far shifted from focusing on wood products and textile towards industry and technology, paving the way to a steady progression toward diversification, according to Siphana.He concludes by saying that there is a tendency to look at Cambodia as just a small market - but clarifies that owing to Cambodia’s openness to international investment, “even though we are a small market, we are nonetheless now a gateway to ASEAN - which is a huge market.”Find out the best real estate news on Realestate.com.kh

As foreign direct investment in the country grows stronger each year through various industries, the real estate sector is now also becoming an attractive market for foreigners. But unlike other countries, ownership in the Kingdom is bound by numerous laws.Realestate.com.kh caught up with Matthew Rendall – Senior Partner at SokSiphana&Associates and a member of Zicolaw – to get a clear picture.  History of Cambodian Law:Much like the country itself, Cambodian law has evolved through time. Rendall explained that “Cambodia used to be a French protectorate way back when it was a civil law country and it has come back to that over the years. Cambodia “retained the civil law even after independence”.From 1975 to 1989 ownership in Cambodia was not allowed at all. However, it was reintroduced in 1989 but only for residential properties; it was not possible to own land in Cambodia legally until 2001.Essential Laws on Foreign Ownership:Rendall suggests that foreign investors look at Cambodia’s important foreign ownership laws before coming to invest in the Kingdom. Those laws include the 2001 Land Law, the 2007 Law on Commercial Enterprises, the 2010 Law on providing foreigners with ownership right in private units of co-owned buildings, and Sub-decree 82 on proportion and calculation of percentage of private units that can be owned by foreigners in a Co-owned Building. The introduction of these laws allows foreigners to acquire interests in properties using various methods.Strata Titles:Strata titles allow foreign ownership of up to 70% of the co-owned buildings, provided that foreigners do not own any real property on the ground floor. However, Rendall stresses that strata titles are not applicable for all buildings. Older buildings before this law was enacted would have to reapply as a co-owned buildings in order to legally issue strata titles.Yet reapplying will present a dilemma due to the land matter. He explains, “The reason was that the person on the ground floor, as far as they and the law was concerned, owns the land. So, if that building falls down, the only person with anything is the ground floor apartment owner because they own the land. The people above merely own the airspace. So, there was value in having the ground floor apartment because their name was on the only real title, the ground floor. The rest are simply recognized as possessors at the municipality of their apartments above it.”He continues, “So, if I wanted now to own the apartment legally, I would have to convince all those apartment owners to hand in their title deeds; we’ll go down to the Ministry of Land and re-register this entire block as co-owned; we’ll issue title deeds. However, we now all have exactly equal value because under the new system, nobody owns the land. The land is owned by everybody.”The problem here is that the ground floor apartment owner may not be too keen on losing 90% of the land ownership.Company Structure:According to the 2007 Law on Commercial Enterprises, a foreign entity may take an ownership interest in land through the formation of a company, provided that 51% of the ownership is by a Cambodian citizen.Foreigners may opt to set contracts and documentation in place such as a powers of attorney, proxies, and shareholder agreements to safeguard their investment and to obtain control over the company, says Rendall. However, foreigners can also further protect their investment by forming two companies.He explains it’s much safer and efficient to acquire property with a Cambodian Citizen through the company structure, gain control over the company legally through proper documentation, and then lease the property to a second company that you’ve created and what is 100% owned by the company. By doing so, the business aspect is separated from the land aspect of your investment.Cambodian Citizenship:Another way to own land in Cambodia is through citizenship. With this, Rendall explains that is common in many countries, foreigners can apply for citizenship through investment; a minimum investment of $250,000 will entitle a person to apply to become a Cambodian citizen, thereby liftingany restriction the foreigner may have had in terms of owning land. A lot of companies send delegates or representatives, invest the amount required, and then have that representative apply for citizenship in order to acquire the land directly.He adds $250,000 might not seem a lot of money, but during the time the law was created, this was a different value (than it is today).Although complicated at the first glance, the Cambodian legal system offers many ways for foreigners to legally own property. However, in order to avoid any unpleasant situations, we strongly recommend to seek the help of a professional and reputable law firm before committing to any investment.Find out the best real estate news on Realestate.com.kh

Looking for your first home is a big step in your life. Scouting for a good location, picking a type of house, fixing your budget, then finally moving into the property is a long and often stressful process. And while you may have found a good home, it may come empty and needs a bit more personalization. This will be another task that will take time, money and attention.Below are a few basic tips for first time homebuyers to help decorate and settle into your new home, thanks to Realestate.com.kh:Interior design concept:Before you get started, consider what your design concept will be and what you personally want  for your house. In line with this, there are three type of concepts you can select, including traditional, modern, and contemporary. Whatever concept you choose, the overall goal should be to turn the empty space into a flexible and multi-functional area.In Cambodia, people believe in feng shui, and believe this layout offers more luck for the family. So, you should consider this concept when renovating and decorating in Cambodia - as it will boost your chances of a higher resale of the property in future.Budget plan:Homeowners will always need to have a budget plan before considering any plan of the interior design of the house. You can have a design firm check to see if the master plan will fit into your budget. A render sketch is first designed by the interior designer to show the property owner for approval. After this, a clear quotation is issued. You can now use this to cross-check if the design fits your budget.  Normally, for this service, a minimum price starts at around $4,000 in Cambodia. However, you can spend more or less depending on the type of materials you prefer.Materials:Material is a significant factor that can help your house become more attractive. There are many types of materials you can choose from, including either recycled or modern material. In Cambodia, however, recycled material sometimes costs higher than modern materials due to the lack of resources - including equipment and specialists. The quality of materials determine the price of each material type.Contractor and interior service:Choosing an interior design firm doesn’t mean you choose the contractor. You can choose the interior firm for both designing and construction services. But you can also hire them separately. As a suggestion, homeowners should avail of both services from one company because it’s easier in terms of coordination. Hence, the process is bound to finish on time and to spec.Keep your eyes on the interior designer firm:You can let the contractor do their work, but you need to check on the progress of the design in order to make sure everything is done correctly and that everything will be completed as scheduled. Ensure that the materials you ordered are not being exchanges for cheaper replacements, and make sure that workers are not cutting corners in the work.Find out more about making the most out of your property investment on realestate.com.kh today.

Knight Frank Cambodia, a leading independent real estate consultancy in Cambodia, released its latest half yearly commercial and residential report for 2017. The report highlights 4 main sectors: office sector, retail sector, serviced apartment sector and condominium sector. Phnom Penh office sector:The Phnom Penh office space supply saw a 21 percent rise in the first half of 2017 compared to the same period last. Almost 50, 000 sqm of office space was delivered across 8 projects with the majority of the supply remaining Grade B and C buildings. Grade A office space represents only 16% of the total supply. According to the Knight Frank Cambodia report, as at H1 2017 the Phnom Penh office stock was recorded at 330,085 sqm of net lettable area (NLA) showing a 21% increase in office supply when compared with 271,913 sq m of NLA recorded at H1 2016.During H1 2017, 48,217 sqm of office space was delivered across 8 projects with Exchange Square being the only Grade A building adding approximately 18,000 sq m to the prime office supply. The new supply included City Tower Asia, Bred Bank building, Sokea International, Aston Tower, Time Tower, Ione Building and 79 Office Tower.With the share of Grade A office space supply expected to rise up to 72 percent as developers shift focus from residential to commercial development, rental prices for Grade A office space remain flat.As at H1 2017, asking rents for prime office space ranged from US$19 to US$38 per sq m per month. The completion of Exchange Square during the second quarter of 2017 has resulted in a stabilisation of rental prices for Grade A offices leaving potential tenants in a stronger negotiating position, according to the report.Regarding office sector outlook, the report predicts the office stock to reach 529,143 sqm within the next 3 years increasing the supply by 60%. Demand for office space is expected to increase over the medium term as Cambodia continues to attract foreign investment.However, the significant Grade A incoming office supply will require suitable pricing in order to attract tenants. Grade B and Grade C office buildings are likely to maintain their occupancy levels in the region of 85%.PHNOM PENH RETAIL SECTOR:At present, Phnom Penh retail is the most dynamic sector with new retail formats and operators continuing to enter the market. New entrants mostly came from the United States and Europe.According to the report, Phnom Penh’s retail sector is expanding with 267,870 sqm expected to come online within the next few years bringing the total supply to 430,275 sqm.The incoming supply will likely impact rents as landlords seek to retain existing tenants with prices and rental average asking rents for prime retail units (below 100 sqm) in prime shopping centres remaining flat. However, Vattanac Capital Tower maintained its leading position in terms of prime rents– up to US$70 per sq m per month, says the report.  Lower rates were noted in secondary malls like Sorya Center Point and depend on a number of factors such as tenant brand, the size of the unit and its location within a project. They vary from US$10 to US$22 per sqm per month for anchor tenants while the smallest units below 10 sqm find tenants for a rent of up to US$250 per sq m per month. Ross Wheble, Country Director of Knight Frank Cambodia, anticipates that the remainder of 2017 will continue on this upward trend with food retailing expected to account for the largest share of the market.Mr. Wheble points out that in addition to the incoming retail supply, the arrival of new international retailers is another sign of the potential that Phnom Penh is holding. European and American brands are gradually entering the market increasing the retail offer.PHNOM PENH SERVICED APARTMENT SECTOR:With new entrants to the market including one of the biggest international operators of serviced residences worldwide, The Ascott Limited, the serviced apartment sector in Phnom Penh is set to become more competitive with concern of the glut in the market.  According to the report, eight serviced apartment buildings completed during H1 2017, bringing the total supply to 4,531 units being monitored in Phnom Penh, recording an increase of 6.9% compared to Q4 2016.The increasing supply has placed downward pressure on monthly rental prices (figure 9) with central locations commanding an average monthly rental price between US$18 to US$30 per sq m, while average rental prices for mid-tier units fall between US$9 to US$16 per sq m per month as at H1 2017, says the report.Despite concerns of an oversupply, the serviced apartment sector recorded an occupancy rate of 70% over H1 2017. PHNOM PENH CONDOMINIUM SECTOR:Over the last five years, Phnom Penh condominium sector has been seeing an increase in supply, especially in the high-end segment thanks to its relatively attractive rental yield.According to the report, condominium supply was recorded at 4,794 units as at H1 2017 with an additional supply of 1,392 units. Despite an oversupply situation in the high-end segment, condominiums that are priced below $50,000 are recording strong sales. Commenting on this, Mr. Wheble said: “buyers are adopting a wait and see approach that can be partly attributed to the uncertainty surrounding the general elections in 2018. Prime locations like BKK1 and Tonle Bassac still command the highest rental rates as demand still outstrips the existing supply. In view of a slow down in the market, several developers have ceased sales and are returning buyer deposits.  The average monthly rent in prime locations ranges between US$16 to US$26 per square metre while outer areas command rents between US$9 to US$12 per square metre.  With regard to the condominium sector Outlook, Mr. WHEBLE stressed that the challenge in attracting buyers requires developers to provide better quality and well managed projects.

【本报消息】由柬埔寨本土公司——百汇投资有限公司（PARKWAY）与中国南通市达欣工程股份有限公司合资，在富人区堆谷打造的世界级商务豪宅、金边塔尖人居——金百汇（THE PARKWAY）继房交会闪耀亮相后，再掀大动作。万众期待的金百汇销售中心及样板房开放盛典，于11月18日上午，在金百汇售楼部华丽绽放，柬埔寨副总理和金边市长亲临现场为盛典致辞，另有25家当地知名媒体代表和众多贵宾等应邀共同见证这一划时代地标作品的盛放。活动当天，百汇投资有限公司总经理林宝庭先生首先作了开场致辞，他说：“历经时代沧桑，柬埔寨这个古老的东方国度正逐渐焕发出蓬勃生机，已然成为当今世界最具发展活力和潜力的发展中国家之一，尤其是房地产市场投资潜力巨大，未来发展大有可期。百汇集团作为柬埔寨本土知名地产公司，23年来始终把‘实施精品战略，打造国际生活’作为产品开发的主基调，牵手一线国际团队，借助国际设计师的先进理念和国际视野，从乌亚西市场工程、奥林匹克运动场旁排屋区、柏威大楼到百汇广场，为金边塑造了一座座地标。” 的确，百汇集团自1994年成立以来，以“地标生活营造专家”闻名金边，始终专注住宅、商业、综合体等多元化国际地产，致力于为金边创造国际、美好、和谐、先进的人居生活，可以说是柬埔寨地产的开拓者引领者。随后，中方达欣股份董事长总经理马和军也作了精彩演讲。他说：“奇迹王国，不仅仅是柬埔寨政府提出的国家形象宣传口号。过去15年，柬埔寨经济年平均增长速度排在全球第六位。房地产市场的繁荣初见端倪，尤其在中国经济的庇佑以及本国政策的庇护下，柬埔寨将成为未来几年甚至几十年之内投资热门。此外，搭上泛亚铁路、一带一路经济带的快车，金边房产看涨。”马和军认为，现在正是来金边投资的绝佳时机，而置业金百汇，当然是这个时代不容错过的选择。 一直以来，百汇开发的项目，都得到了业主的高度认可，得到了柬埔寨当地以及国际名流的高度关注，这是一份难得的荣耀，也是一份厚重的责任。此次达欣集团作为有着43年创建历史、注册资金超3亿元的中国建筑业竞争力200强企业，将汇聚中国鸟巢设计团队、中国建筑施工最高奖项——鲁班奖获奖建筑施工团，携手百汇精工缔造金百汇，以比肩世界的产品标准，为金边打造一座百年不落伍的国际地标，全面满足高端人群舒适生活，不负广大业主厚望。  紧接着，金百汇项目销售总监丁丽丽女士就柬埔寨以及金边的楼市作了分析。她指出，买房致富”是大多数中国人普遍认同的“投资真理”，而随着国内房价一路“水涨船高”，各种限贷、限购、限售的政策不断，来东南亚、柬埔寨投资置业已经越来越成为一种潮流和明智的选择。丁丽丽说：“目前金边楼市的发展情况比较像早期的深圳。金边是一个国际化程度非常高的城市，跨国企业众多，常住的外国工作人员密集，虽然金边目前已有很多高层公寓的建筑工地在紧张施工，到2018年金边地区完工的公寓量大约在13000套-15000套之间，但还是无法满足市场。公寓的需求量非常大，房价的增值空间也会随之而增长。”丁丽丽也对金百汇所在的堆谷区寄予了极高的评价和期待。她说：“堆谷区作为柬埔寨金边富人区和世界热门旅游地，汇聚国际潮流生活，完全比肩巴黎十六区、东京六本木、上海陆家嘴，房价每年保持在至少10%到20%的增长率，酒店式公寓出租率超过90%，租金回报率保守预估8%—10%，远超京、沪市中心公寓，可以说，这里的投资环境比20年前的北上广还要好。目前金边核心区域房价以25%的速度增长，现有市场租金回报率达8%-15%左右。所以说，如果错过了曾经的上海浦东，这次来金边堆谷，选择金百汇，是个绝佳的掘金机会。”  最后，几位嘉宾对金边政府的领导和管理表达了一致的感谢。正是有了优秀卓越的领导，社会稳定，经济发展迅速，同时政府给予了更多更好的优惠政策，这里的投资环境才越来越好，并最终使广大业主受益。在柬埔寨最好的城市，在首都金边的富人区，占据最稀缺的核心地段，打造最具有鲜明建筑特色和生活价值的世界级豪宅，塔尖人居金百汇，无疑只为顶尖而来。期待未来的发展，相信未来的生活会越来越美好。 查看柬埔寨更多投资指南及新闻，跟随realestate.com.kh

Launched in early 2016 and located within Phnom Penh Central Business District, The Gateway, developed by TACC (C.R.) Ltd., will be a freehold mixed-use development that includes residential, retail, and office options for local and international investors. The developer has over 40 years of construction experience and 15 years of real estate experience in Singapore, and is currently listed on the Singapore Stock Exchange.The project strategically located along Russian Boulevard is close to important establishments and amenities such as The Council of Ministers, Ministry of National Defence, the Thai-managed Royal Phnom Penh Hospital, a host of world-class international schools and prestigious universities, and grand financial landmarks manifesting the heart of Phnom Penh. One future development next door to The Gateway is Parkson Mall, set to become Cambodia’s premier retail mall complex.The Gateway is comfortably surrounded by momentous development plans, including the Phnom Penh City Center development site, a huge tract of land under development on the former Boeung Kak Lake - soon to become themost glamorous area in the country. The Gateway will also sit along the very first MRT station in Cambodia. According to the Ministry of Public Works and Transport, the MRT will be inaugurated in April 2018, transporting passengers from downtown to the international airport in just 20 minutes.Just 15-minutes drive from Phnom Penh International Airport, The Gateway is set to reach completion by December 2019, and will be the tallest building between the airport and the Prime Minister’s office.Oknha Ly Kun Thai, CEO of The Gateway, said: “customers who buy units in The Gateway will be able to fully enjoy three main aspects of life: “live, work, and entertain” concurrently, because it is a mixed-use development project - which will mean less time travelling in the city. The Gateway is set to significantly transform the urban landscape of Phnom Penh city once completed in late 2019.”Commenting on the whole project, he added: “The Gateway has an ample 7-storey car park and 2-storey retail podium, a 39-storey residential tower, and a 36-storey office tower. It will also feature a sky terrace and a basement car park in its residential tower.”The Gateway will also provide a number of common facilities such as a swimming pool, spa and sauna room, library, gymnasiums, barbecue area and green space to embed elements of a modern lifestyle for all buyers.Regarding The Gateway’s customers, Oknha Ly Kun Thai said: “The Gateway targets both local and international customers, most of whom are business people. For local customers, we target the middle to high-income class and our international customers who have already bought the units include Singaporean, Malaysian, Chinese, HongKong, Taiwanese, Indian, Indonesian, Swiss, and Canadian nationals. “This will establish an epic environment and a unique experience that cannot be found elsewhere in Cambodia.”Oknha Ly Kun Thai added: “Our location is in the financial area in the heart of Phnom Penh, and close to main buildings along Russian Boulevard. For residential and office space, a large percentage has been sold to customers already. Prices of residential space start from $150K+++ per unit and commercial space from $250K+++ per unit.”The residential units will range from one to three bedrooms and will have luxurious fittings and private balconiesto match. Residents will be able to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle and at the same time the great views of the Mekong River and the whole city. Besides this, The Gateway offers acuminous investors up to 12 percent guaranteed rental return for two years.The office tower will have a helipad, double-glazed glass for heat reduction, 8 elevators, and a separate fire exit for maximum safety. Uniquely, The Gateway offers the only Grade A offices for sale in the city - all of which will be elevated in height and provide comfortable and well designed space for a modern working environment. Similar to residential unit purchasers, office units are offered an even more extravagant GRR, which is equivalent to 16 percent in two years.Oknha Ly Kun Thai also gave a final remark expressing his pride on major strengths of The Gateway Project: including the excellent location - a rising economic zone with huge future potential; a magnificent project - with comfort, facilities, and quality; and the project’s motto - live, work, and entertain. With the necessary approvals from relevant authorities and compliance with applicable regulations, the completion of the project is an absolute certainty. It is also an assurance to which The Gateway is proud to provide to all purchasers.Get more information about The Gateway and learn more about Cambodia’s newest developments by visiting Realestate.com.kh!

Not so long ago, those seeking a property in Cambodia had to spend their weekends driving around the streets looking for shaky old sign boards indicating if properties were open for sale or rent. Frustrated with this process, Cambodian national, Mr. Moek Chenda, decided there must be an easier way…By 2009, Moek had launched the first version of realestate.com.kh, Cambodia’s first ever specialised real estate portal website - a place where all sellers could list their property and gain the right exposure, and providing a one stop online marketplace for property buyers and renters. Moek focused on growing traffic to the website, and continually making it easier for people to find their dream home without the stress and effort of running around town.As time went on, property buyers could spend more of their weekend relaxing with family, or enjoying a coffee at cafes in the city - all whilst being able to find their next property investment online.Now, in 2017, with the world and much of Cambodia moving their focus online, Moek and the team at realestate.com.kh decided to once again to revolutionize the way people find property in Cambodia and set out on a mission to build one of the most user friendly search websites and mobile apps, and one that fully integrated with world leading technology solutions for property buyers sellers, including 360 degree tours and CRM systems for real estate agents in Cambodia.In July of 2017 this dream has become a reality, with the full launch of realestate.com.kh world-class website and app.The realestate.com.kh’s website:The new realestate.com.kh website platform creates a seamless search across a database of almost 50,000 property listings. With updated search criteria, users can pinpoint the exact qualities they require in their property selection, whether it be a swimming pool, main road access or a nonflooding property. The property types, locations and specific criteria on the new realestate.com.kh platform are perfectly aligned with the Cambodian real estate market and buyer’s preferences in mind.New Developments, boreys and completed office and apartment buildings can also benefit from the new platform’s “Project Listings” function. This function allows 2 grades of listing: the first is the “Project Listing Page” which provide the full overview of the project, borey or building, information on the location, amenities and type of units available. The second type of listing is called the “Individual Property Pages”. These sub listings sit within the project listing and allow the seller to list everysingle individual unit available in the building or borey, with full information of each unit, floor plans and 360 degree tours. This new feature allows users to be even more informed about a property before making an inquiry; and therefore, increases the quality of inquiries for property for real estate agents and property developers through the website.IT Support Manager at realestate.com.kh, Bona Chhut, notes that, “the users of the website are the most important thing in this business - so we knew we had to focus on creating the most powerfulsearch functionality possible.” Chhut goes on to say, “we had to look at global examples - but really localize them for the Cambodian market; and we think we have done that!”One of the most useful tools on the new platform is the map search function. This allows users to simply trace the area in which they would like to find a new home for sale and rent, and then are immediately presented with a list of properties in that search zone. Users are also able to not only search by location, but also by landmark - such as Central Market, Riverside or Aeon Mall.This is because: “International investors and renters planning to move to Cambodia will often know the general area or landmark they want to buy or rent a property near, such as Independence Monument for example. But not everyone knows that its in Chamkarmon, for example. So we havetaken that frustration away from the buyer by introducing this powerful level of search on the new platform,” Thomas O’Sullivan, ceo of realestate.com.kh, notes.The website is now available in three languages: Khmer, English and Chinese - as “some of our clients target expat renters, some target Cambodian’s looking for a property in a borey, and so many of the condo developers are targeting international investors, many of which are now Chinese speakers,” O’Sullivan notes.The realestate.com.kh App, for Android and IOS:In combination with the new website, realestate.com.kh has also pioneered the first ever real estate search app, now available in both the IOS and Andriod app store for free download. The app allows a much simpler, faster-running and user-friendly interface for property seekers to find their dream home. Inquiring to the seller has also become much easier, as the app is directly linked to the users SMS channel on mobile, meaning they can contact the agent or seller direct to their mobile phone with an auto-generated text message.Realestate.com.kh Certified Listings:An issue with the old realestate.com.kh website was linked to the quality of listings. Many users gave feedback that some agents were listing properties no longer in the market, and wasting thebuyer’s time by fielding inquiries on these outdated listings. To mitigate this issue, the new platform includes a “realestate.com.kh certified listing” criteria. Certified listings are those listings that realestate.com.kh staff have physically visited, videoed using the “realestate.com.kh walkthrough tour” application, and can confidently present to the market as available and accurately presented on the website. This allows the property seeker to have full trust when inquiring on these properties, and with the agents using this type of listing. Meanwhile, when a user searches, certified listingswill be presented above those that are not certified in the search results - meaning additional exposure and inquiries for agents and other sellers that make use of this new product.Similar to the certified listings and walkthrough videos, the new realestate.com.kh website and app also integrate virtual reality technology with 360 degree walk through tours for property listings.These 360 degree tours allow customers to experience your show-flat or property in a fully immersive experience from anywhere! You can use it at AEON mall, in your real estate agent’s officein Singapore or in the lounge room of your best customer. “Realestate.com.kh 360 Degree Virtual Tours” allows this freedom. Best of all we do all of the work for you and we can build these tours within 72 hours (or even 24 hours if it’s a rush).For the user on our website and app, these new multimedia tours allow you to truly experience the property before you waste anytime visiting the property or developers showroom. These are just a few advances that realestate.com.kh has brought to market since humble beginnings in 2009… Keep your eyes open for more real estate tech innovation coming soon.Find the best real estate news on Realestate.com.kh!

The recent news of an innercity-to-airport rail link has been welcomed by Cambodia property developers, especially those with projects situated near the proposed track. According to recent press, upon the railway’s completion in 2018, trains will be able to take passengers from the central city to Phnom Penh international airport in just 15 minutes travel time.During a handover ceremony last week in Phnom Penh for mechanical equipment donated by China, Transport Minister Sun Chanthol said: “this project will reduce traffic jams leading to the Phnom Penh airport and prevent people from being late to their flights. Thus far, 250 meters of the rail track has already been constructed by the country’s railroad company, Royal Railway.”“Four $1 to $2 million trains purchased by the company from Mexico will run along the route. During the first month of operation, rides will be free of charge,” added Mr. Sun.Commenting on this, John Guiry, CEO of Royal Railway, told local media that construction had begun about six weeks ago and was expected to wrap up by April 2018, with about 10 to 12 meters being laid down each night.”The project’s budget was confidential, but was “part of a current maintenance budget” for the company. Tickets would likely cost between $5 and $7, but the price would be set closer to the launch, added Mr. Guiry.By aiding traffic congestion and also shortening travel time to and from the airport, this new railway project is expected to further boost property investor’ confidence in the capital, in particular for projects situated along or near Russian boulevard.  Johnny Chan, Sales & Marketing Director of Creed Group, the developer of the Bodaiju Residences project, said: "this new announcement gives current and prospective investors in the Bodaiju project even more confidence that they have made the right investment decision.”Mr. Chan added: “the proposed rail line will offer residents of Bodaiju a fast and direct link to the inner city, and will mean that congestion along Russian Boulevard will be controlled into the future. This represents great news for developers such as the Creed Group with projects situated along this access way to the city."Meanwhile, Chenyi Chiu, General Manager of TK Royal One, said: “the passenger railway transport line is a significant signage of a modern city. Although it has been expected for long time, there has never been any confirmed plan for the Phnom Penh city passenger railway transport. The announcement in this July not only proves that Phnom Penh is now transforming into a modern city but also opening the new era of the railway economy.”  “The city development is going to follow the railway network to expand and start from the station along the railway. Sitting on the center of this main railway route, TK Royal One owners and tenants will be able to take the advantages to enjoy the convenience of new lifestyle and to gain the future property value appreciation. Besides, as a foreign real estate developer, seeing this transportation infrastructure indeed makes us have more confidence in Phnom Penh’s property market. However, we also look forward to seeing the railway network to expand more in the near future to make the city development much faster,” Mr. Chenyi added.Oknha Ly Kun Thai, CEO of The Gateway project, said: “this new railway is quite essential for Cambodia because Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) will increase commercial developments and boost the country’s economy as a whole. In general, the MRT is fast, reliable and efficient to all citizens living in the city. Therefore, having MRT helps reduce the number of vehicles on the road while bypassing traffic congestion during rush hours in the city, resulting in a shorter commute.”“An efficient mode of transportation is the key to city development that helps boost general commercial activity. This is good news for Cambodia’s property market as better and improved transportation infrastructure in the area will boost property prices and rental yield,” added Mr. Ly.Located along the Russian Boulevard and only a few hundred meters from the railway station,The Gateway is one of the mixed-use development projects in Cambodia to get major benefits from this new railway in terms of travelling time towards the airport and inner-city.Mr. Ly explained that the Gateway’s residents will enjoy great advantage of traveling to and from Phnom Penh’s International Airport in a very short time. Meanwhile, rail travel is a lot safer compared to road travel due to proper security monitoring throughout the system.Learn more about Investing in Cambodia on Realestate.com.kh

Cambodia’s former cinema buildings were indicative of the country’s famous architecture before the civil war. However, at the present time, most of the young generation is not aware of these buildings. This is the main reason “Amazing Cambodia” started to collect all existing old cinema photos - to allow Khmer people, both old and young, to be aware of the great architecture that existed in the past. Amazing Cambodia is a Facebook page whose purpose is to collect Cambodian historical images, music, films and other things of cultural importance and share them to everyone domestically and internationally.In an interview with realestate.com.kh, Mr. Srin Sokmean, founder of Amazing Cambodia, describes the way and why he compiles all those old cinema building photos.Why do you compile all these old cinema building photos?The reasons why I have been collecting those vintage images of Cambodia’s former cinema buildings is because they are one of my most favourite research topics. I am passionate aboutCambodia’s pre-1975 era of glorious arts and culture, and those numerous cinemas - especially the over 30 cinemas based in Phnom Penh that truly reflect that remarkable period. On the other hand, I heard the names of some of those cinemas in my childhood during the early 2000s, such as Angkor cinema and Kirirom cinema - so this made me curious to find out where they were now and what these buildings looked like.When did you start compiling all these old cinema building photos?First, I bumped into some magazine articles with several photos of old cinemas in Phnom Penh while I was reading one local magazine, “The Popular,” around 2004-2005. I was a big fan of that magazine, and I learned a lot from the articles about the transformation of those buildings at that time. Then I started to collect the magazine for further personal research. In 2010, I began using the internet, and since then it has become my greatest tool for research on the topic.Which is your favourite old cinema building photos? Why?My most preferred images are the ones from 1960s and early 1970s that depict the great architectural structures of the buildings and big crowds of audiences waiting to buy the tickets because those images illustrate the connection between the buildings and the successful film screenings in Cambodia back then. One of them is a vintage image of the front of Proum Bayon Cinema with a French movie poster extracted from “Cambodge d’Aujourd’hui” newspaper published in December, 1958.Could you briefly describe all these old cinemas?Based on my research data, there used to be approximately 36 cinemas in Phnom Penh and some others in the provincial towns throughout the country. These cinemas are divided into 4 timeline groups: (1) Pre-1950 such as Ciné Star, Lux, Eden, Casino, Majestic, Kim Phong, Kim Son, Trung Quoc and others mainly based in Phsar Kandal and Phsar Chas colonial zone. (2) 1950s such as Phnom Penh, Phnom Pich, Vimean Soursdey and Proum Bayon (3) 1960s such as Hemakcheat, Kirirom, Mkot Pich, Sar Proum Meas and 1970s such as Vimean Tip, Santepheap and Monoroth (unfinished). How do you feel about the demolition of the old cinemas - to be replaced with new ones?Honestly speaking, I really feel sorry for such big losses. Though we cannot prevent the city from rapid modernization, we could have renovated those heritage buildings and converted them into new facilities, such as museums, art galleries or performing arts theatres, in appropriate ways. For instance, we could have just repainted and repaired the most dilapidated areas.Meanwhile, the special architectural features should have been preserved - regardless of the new function that the building was to serve.What is the benefit of compiling all these old cinema building photos?Personally, I think that these kinds of historical photo archives are beneficial to Khmer nation. First of all, as most of the cinemas have gone, this collection functions as a mirror reflecting the number of cinemas we used to have in the past and how powerful our local film industry was before Khmer Rouge. Second, it also indicates the timeline of the building functions over decades. Third, it can be seen as a useful source for both local and international architectural students and cultural researchers.Do you have any special plan for all these old cinema building photos? Do you have anything to tell younger generations?I am starting to cooperate with Roung Kon Project, a group of architecture students from RUFA, to work on a research project on 5 former cinema buildings in Phnom Penh for a book publication, but we are just at the beginning.I have also established a photo exhibition in which some of the photo collection have been displayed.

根据居外网提供的2017年项目报告，来自中国的地产投资商在全球的投资额将达到800亿美元，自2015年以来已经连续3年位居榜首。就今年的华人对外地产投资而言，柬埔寨无疑是东南亚国家中获益最多的国家。 这份报告中东南亚则占很大比重，原因就是今年东南亚将在中国地产投资流中赢得更多份额，成为最成功的区域之一。 东南亚开始吸引越来越多的中国私人买家投资。无论是泰国、马来西亚、菲律宾、越南、印度尼西亚，还是柬埔寨，2017年中国买家通过居外网提交的房产咨询相比2016年同期至少增长26%。 柬埔寨的咨询量上涨了300%，远超过东南亚其他国家，而菲律宾和越南各自增长率为130%和60%。为什么柬埔寨能够成为2017年第一季度东南亚国家中最受中国私人买家的国家呢？ SC资本有限公司（SC Capital Co., Ltd.）的业务开发主管Alex Loo认为：“这多亏了柬埔寨与中国的友好关系，而且两国之间的投资合作也很密切。2016年，中柬之间的贸易额比去年增长7.4%。” 吉斯通房产咨询有限公司（KeystoneProperty Consultants Co., Ltd.）的总经理Sunny Soo先生也认为相比邻国越南和泰国，柬埔寨对中国投资者来说有着更稳健更友好的政治经济环境。他还说到：“美元也是吸引中国房产投资者的一个重要因素，因为美元相比人民币更加保值。” 今年，中国东盟商务理事会的理事长徐宁宁访柬，与土地管理、城市规划和建设部部长会晤，意在促进中柬建筑工业和相关业务合作的发展。从某种程度上来说，也推动了中国房地产开发商对柬埔寨的进一步投资。 Loo先生补充道：“对海外投资来说，经济发展是一个国家的主要吸金优势，而柬埔寨的经济发展十分迅猛，年均国内生产总值保持在7%的增长速度。” “过去10年，柬埔寨实行开放经济，经历了无数新的机遇和挑战。为了增强国际竞争力，政府积极提倡出口自由，并且进行税收改革，以期吸引投资者。柬埔寨在全球名列前茅的经济增长速度还将持续数年。”Loo先生说。 与此同时，NC Max World有限公司的副总Laurence Hamilton认为：“中国私人买家的需求收到中国国内货币市场更严格的管控，从而使越来越多的中国投资者寻求海外房产投资机会。而柬埔寨因为使用美元，有着相对稳定的货币环境，因而深受中国投资者的青睐。当然，柬埔寨也逐渐成为东南亚地区GDP发展最快的国家之一，而且这也带动了房地产增值。” 尽管东南亚不是中国最大的海外地产投资目标，但是这个区域已成为世界上发展最快的发展中国家市场，比很多发达国家市场更具投资潜力。 Hamilton先生说道：“尽管欧洲和美国第三产业市场对中国投资者来说仍然强劲，但是近几年有很大一部分的海外直接投资已经转移到了东南亚这些发展中的经济体中。这正是因为这些发展中的机场比发达市场的投资回报更高，而且风险也更低。” 他解释，中国正在努力赶超美国这个世界上最大的经济体，这无疑对直接的地区有着巨大的影响，尤其是考虑到中国采取的是外向型的、贸易推动的对外政策。由于中国人将房地产看作很有吸引力的价格点，以此创造更多的以美元为货币单位的剩余价值，而柬埔寨经济则受到商业货物和服务不断增长的需求的推动，为整个国家带来了更多就业机会和税务收入，因而中国在柬埔寨的地产投资将会让两个国家获得双赢。 Loo先生对中国人投资柬埔寨的前景也很看好，他认为：“中国的投资给东南亚这些领土较小的国家，比如柬埔寨、老挝和缅甸等带来史无前例的机遇，让这些国家逐渐成为中国越来越倚重的出口国家。中国还将放贷100亿巨款来帮助东南亚进行基础设施建设。中国对东南亚的直接投资主要集中在印度尼西亚、马来西亚、柬埔寨和泰国，尤其是在基础设施、能源、金融、房地产和交通运输方面。” 中国明年的海外房地产投资将持续助长柬埔寨的整体经济，尤其是在房地产领域。 查看柬埔寨更多投资指南及新闻，跟随realestate.com.kh

在购买社区住宅里的别墅之前，有几个技巧，可以避免一些可能出现的长期或短期问题。 我对柬埔寨出售的社区住宅应该有何种期许？ 社区住宅（Borey）是低层住宅物业群，位于封闭式的社区。这里的物业包括别墅，公寓，联排别墅，商铺甚至是托管公寓。 社区住宅有很多种物业，满足个人和家庭的需求。一大特色是有自己的基础设施和服务，包括道路，供水，用电，废物处理。不过社区住宅最大的卖点是超大的空间，安保设施。因为它的独特性，这里给你更安静的感觉。 在社区住宅购房是明智的选择，因为意味着您的新住宅周边有齐全的基础设施，包括水电和合适的道路系统。小区安保设施齐全，有公共区可供家庭使用。缺点是相比独栋物业的附加费用，入住新住宅之前的等候期，以及购买的社区住宅项目并没有完成所有的承诺的风险。 社区住宅大多数在哪？ 社区住宅主要位于金边市的外围，很少一部分位于内城区。这是因为需要更多的土地建房，而土地在已经严重超负荷的城区非常少见。它们在其他的主要中心也越来越多，比如暹粒市, 西哈努克城和马德望。 与此同时，社区住宅更多的新项目登陆城市外围靠近主要高速公路的地方，尤其是在工业活动密集、工人很多的区域。 社区住宅的开发商可以拿到完全没有开发的农地，水田和湖），为新的迷你城市建造基础设施。基于这个原因，社区住宅项目的快速发展对于打造城市新区是很必要的，非常适合居民物业。对于开发商来说，开发必要的基础设施，他们可以改变土地，在项目完成后可以拉高每平方米土地的价格。  如果我不是柬埔寨公民，可以购买社区住宅吗？ 外国人不允许购买社区住宅，因为这些是拥有土地的物业。土地法的第8条说明：“伪造国籍购买柬埔寨土地的外国人将受惩罚，根据本法律的251条执行。这类情况下购买的土地都会政府剥夺，而且不会有任何的赔偿”。不过，部分社区住宅有带独立产权的公寓，外国人可以购买。此外，外国人也可以考虑通过柬埔寨代理购买1套有土地的住宅。 我是柬埔寨人，我能购买社区住宅出售的别墅吗？   柬埔寨的公民可以购买社区住宅带土地的物业，只要他们满足法律和财政条件。 当我选择在社区住宅购房，我需要寻找什么文件？ 很多项目冒充是社区住宅，不顾这些冒牌项目没有必需的批准和文件。他们只是在营销的时候自称是社区住宅。买家需要核对5种文件，确保社区住宅项目的质量和可信度。 这5种重要的文件分别是硬产权，公司营业执照，批准的总体规划，施工执照，社区住宅执照。 硬产权：当交易社区住宅的时候，你需要核对两类的硬产权。第一个是整个社区住宅项目的产权，这被称为总地契，覆盖项目的所有土地。第二个是每套住宅的单独产权。这些被称为独立产权。1个合法的社区应该能向买家提供这两种产权。如果不能，不要买房，直到他们可以。 开发公司营业执照：开发公司需要登记自己，从相关部门获得必需的施工批准。不过，施工并不表明他们有批准。你可以要求查看营业执照，确保项目和开发商的程序都是合法的。 总体规划批准：土地管理部分需要在施工之前批准开发商的总体规划。可信的开发商应该能够向你展示批复，起码展示副本。 施工执照：施工公司需通过土地管理部门的背景审核。社区住宅必需有单独的注册建筑公司建造房子和基础设施，确保项目的持续性和质量。一旦这些理清了，施工公司应该给出执照。 社区住宅执照：一切都准备就绪的时候，经济和财政部会向社区颁发执照。这意味着开发商在资质，设计，销售计划和文件上都满足了政府的要求。 我是否该购买社区住宅有硬产权或是软产权的房子？ 事实上，您可以购买有软产权或是硬产权的房子。最重要的是，你一定要确保开发商有主硬产权。 CBL Law Group 的律师Lay Solida女士说：“社区住宅是合法的，已经获得了相关部门的认证。最重要的事情就是社区住宅有主硬产权。” 社区住宅一定要有硬产权。硬产权确保开发商完全拥有社区土地。你可以做额外的工作，核对在硬产权方面是否有待定的法律问题。这些特定的文件将会保护你和你的投资。 Dara先生已经在金边的社区住宅里购买了1套别墅。他说他对上述文件已经很熟悉了。他解释说：“我刚在金边买了1套房子，我选择分期付款。到目前为止，没有硬产权或是软产权方面的问题。这只是一个买卖协议。是对分期付款完成后的担保。如果我需要硬产权，我需要自己处理文件”。  Sleuk Rith Realty的首席执行官Kheang Puthy先生告诉当地的报社：“我们需要核对所有的法律文件，比如产权，施工执照，相关部门的协议。当您购买的社区住宅有所有的文件的时候，你将会是安全的”。 但是如果出售的社区住宅有硬产权但是只给你软产权，怎么办？ ACLEDA Bank的贷款部门员工Cheng Soknov先生很乐观，他说：“当你购买社区住宅只有软产权的时候不是问题，最重要的事情是社区住宅是合法的，我们可以让这个通过”。 如果总地契是硬产权，那么硬产权可以给那些买家购买的单独物业。这依然是最安全的选择，确保你购买的房子会有单独的硬产权。这可以达成，但是需要花费房子价格的4%。一旦通过，你就不用再担心以后的产权问题，可以安心的入住了。 为什么社区住宅总体规划这么重要？ 每一个社区项目都需要一个整体规划。这很重要，而且买家也需要知道这点。在开发项目获得其他的许可证之前，他们也需要有详细的规划，向政府部门和监理展示社区在未来是否会获得成功。 在某些情况下，政府部门可能会研究一些销售策略，因为有些时候，业主可能项目能否被市场消化和周边区域消化没有那么深入的研究。 Socheata也说：“如果项目低于市场价格脱销，我们（政府部门）可能会召集业主，对比销售价格，项目的花费以及其他费用，让项目卖出一个合理的价格”。 社区住宅有施工执照，营业执照以及社区执照的重要性 金融财政部和土地管理部，城市规划和建设部已经一起宣布，部分施工项目没有在相关部门登记，会影响房地产的开发。 Chan Socheata女士－工业和金融部门的房地产开发商务管理办公室主任说：“通常来说，在颁发项目开发许可证之前，部门会根据清单评估，找出项目是否有清晰、强力的收入，资产，抵押品，土地产权，以及其他的资产来支持项目”。 Socheata建议说：“所有的项目开发商必须从金融和财政部获得执照。这也是买家在购买期房之前需要慎重考虑的，不管是共管公寓还是社区住宅。记住询问项目是否获得了执照，以便保护自己的权益，不要浪费钱，惹不必要的麻烦。” 总体来说，如果我们购买任何没有合法执照的项目，都是有风险的。当项目有合法执照的时候，对于打造稳固的金融体系，预防金融风险，很有帮助,可以明确开发商和买家的责任，尤其是保护和预防公司破产的风险。 我是否该核对开发商的执照？ 关于开发商还有一些关注点，他们仅仅通过当地的政府登记合法的施工执照，而不是国家层次。 这对买家来说可能非常麻烦，无论是关于土地所有权还是住房，因为国家政府可能不承认当地的注册。 所以，在决定购买任何项目之前，确保它的合法性，他们具有其他合法文件，比如总体规划，硬产权。 社区住宅的预算规划有哪些类型? 总体来说, 社区住宅有3种预算规划。第一种是项目的业主使用他们的资产投资。第二种是项目所有者和银行合作。第三种是所有者首先从客户那集资,以开始施工(楼花)。 第一种情形对买家是最安全的，因为这意味着开发商有充足的资金完成项目，即使没有买家的预付款或是银行的财政支持。话虽如此，和银行合作的项目在柬埔寨的市场上也是比较常见的,  如果开发商有很好的声誉和业绩记录,和值得信赖的著名银行合作，那么就没有什么好担心的了。 第三种情形可能会让买家比较担忧了。如果项目没有像开发商预计的那么快售出，可能项目会停止或是放缓。在这种情况下，如果你购买预售的房子，你可能无法按时拿到房子。最糟糕的情形就是，你可能根本就拿不到房子。并且，如果开发商在项目接近竣工的时候钱用光了，社区住宅的公共设施可能会受到波及，一些不会如一开始承诺的那样建造，比如道路，安保设施和公共区。  我是否该分期付款购买社区住宅? BTV的经济主编Yin Leangkon先生警告不要分期付款。他说：“事实上,部分开发商使用根本不需要定金的付款方式。意味着客户可以在项目竣工的时候买下他们的物业”。他也强调说，分期付款会花费5到10年的时间，付的钱会超过售价。 买家决定那种付款方式适合他们。分期付款会让价格比普通价格高，也要求你等待并为施工付款，直到项目结束。筹集的钱要么用于施工，要么用于营销。 我是否该在社区住宅施工开始前购买 在项目竣工之前购买是有利的。距离竣工的时间越长，房子的价格可能就越低。不过当项目开发商不得不等待客户的钱来完成施工的时候，买家就应该考虑项目的资金和预算方案了。你购买这种项目可能会有风险，因为如果客户没有那么早或是那么多购房的话，项目可能会破产。 如果开发商从银行得到了项目贷款，这会给客户信心购买房子，因为银行在批准贷款之前有严格的要求和条款。 有住房贷款吗? 如果你不能马上支付全款的话,有贷款协议帮助你的财政,这将会非常有帮助的。这会给你很大的灵活性,可以按照预先安排好的付款,以更舒适的节奏。不会一下就掏空你所有的积蓄。 有多种房屋贷款,但是都不同,银行的利率也不同。社区住宅有时候也和当地的银行合作进行住房贷款。所以,最好和当地银行以及开发商核对,看哪种适合你。在购房之前决定哪种贷款,而不是购房之后。 我是否该从银行或是开发商贷款？ 如果你从银行贷款，可以贷到房子价格70%的钱。但是你需要有稳定的收入，抵押品。如果借贷期限15年，年利息可能7%起。借款人有时可能被要求支付房子价格的30%做首期付款。 直接从社区住宅开发商贷款更容易。你不需要抵押品，收入证明，甚至是首期付款。你只需要确保你有稳定的收入可以付款。但是如果你不能付款，开发商可能会很快收回你的资产。 当你从银行贷款的时候，他们会调查你的财政能力。他们也需要调查社区住宅是否是个安全的投资。这让买家满意困难更大，但是可以长期付清。 社区住宅可能会提供更轻松的贷款条款，但是相比从银行贷款，你需要承担更多的风险。 免费咨询房小地了解柬埔寨一线投资信息查看柬埔寨更多购房指南及新闻，跟随Realestate.com.kh
