Overview

About The Collection 688 (Chung cư Hòa Lân Thuận Giao)

The Collection 688 — legal name Chung cư Hòa Lân Thuận Giao — is an apartment project whose investor is Trí Holdings Real Estate Investment JSC, developed by DICERA Holdings (HOSE: DC4).

It fronts Đại lộ Bình Dương (National Highway 13) in Thuận Giao ward, Ho Chi Minh City — an area that until 1 July 2025 belonged to Thuận An City, Bình Dương province.

A small project by design. The whole development is only 688 units on a 5,804.4 m² site: 549 Sống Sang apartments (1BR+, 2BR, 3BR), 133 Thương Gia business-class residences with private gardens on floors 4–8, and six three-storey shophouses in the podium.

Compared with the 1,000-plus-unit projects on the same Highway 13 corridor, supply here is limited. The 5,804.4 m² figure is from Department of Construction letter 51038/SXD-QLXDCT; DICERA's own project page states over 6,138 m².

Amenities on two separate floors. Floor 9 is the active deck: 16 facilities around two pools, including a gym, BBQ, 3D golf, a screening room and children's areas.

Floor 21 is the quiet floor — indoor and outdoor co-working, a business meeting room, a meditation garden with sound bathing — and also serves as the building's refuge floor.

The two groups sit 12 floors apart, separating the lively facilities from the work-and-relax ones.

Legal status. On file: investment policy approval (Decision 2398/QĐ-UBND, 23 August 2024), 1/500 master plan approval (Decision 3218/QĐ-UBND, 12 May 2025), environmental licence (43/GPMT-UBND, 25 June 2025), fire-safety design appraisal (1083/TĐ-PCCC, 5 August 2026), and HCMC Department of Construction letter 51038/SXD-QLXDCT (August 2026) advising that the project falls under the construction-permit exemption.

The exemption is not a shortcut: it applies only because the feasibility study was appraised by the competent authority and the investor then approved the project.

Not yet in the file we hold. Four items are missing from the documents we hold: written confirmation of a foreign ownership quota, the form and term of the pink book (sổ hồng), the notice that the project is eligible to sell off-plan homes, and a bank guarantee certificate.

Whether the 133 Thương Gia residences carry the same ownership form and term as the other apartments should also be confirmed in writing.

MB is the project's financing bank — financing the project is not the same as guaranteeing handover. Ask for all four in writing before paying a deposit.

Who is it for? The project targets business owners and their families in the Thuận An area. The former Bình Dương province as a whole had at least 106,000 business entities — 45,400 operating companies and 61,069 household and individual businesses (Vietnam Business White Book 2024).

Location

Location & connectivity

📍 Thuan Giao Ward (formerly Thuan An City, Binh Duong Province), Ho Chi Minh City

The Collection 688 sits on land parcel 198, map sheet 124, fronting Đại lộ Bình Dương (National Highway 13) in Thuận Giao ward, Ho Chi Minh City — until 1 July 2025 part of Thuận An City, Bình Dương province.

The project's vehicle access point onto Highway 13, at Km12+789.9 on the right-hand side of the carriageway, was approved in writing in 2025 — the detail that decides how residents get in and out every day.

Retail nearby includes AEON Mall, Lotte Mart, Vincom and GO! Bình Dương; hospitals include Columbia Asia, Becamex International, Hạnh Phúc International and Thuận An General; universities include Thủ Dầu Một and Bình Dương, plus MMI International School.

Rental demand comes from the VSIP, Sóng Thần 1 and 2 and Việt Hương 1 industrial parks. The developer's location map shows the site near the intersection of two planned metro lines — one running along Highway 13 towards Bến Thành station, and one along the Mỹ Phước – Tân Vạn axis.

Both are planned lines, not yet in operation. The official documents contain no distance or travel-time figures, so we do not publish estimates.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is the project actually called?

Government documents refer to the project by its legal name, Chung cư Hòa Lân Thuận Giao; The Collection 688 is the commercial name. Use the legal name when checking records with the authorities — a search by the commercial name may turn up nothing.

What does it cost per m²?

From 46.88 million VND/m² on the standard payment plan, per the developer's launch file of 18 September 2026; the first 300-unit basket starts at 43.688 million VND/m². The documents do not state whether the rate applies to carpet or wall-centre area, nor whether VAT is included, so a per-unit price sheet is required.

Does the project have a construction permit?

The project falls under the construction-permit exemption in article 43.2(e) of Construction Law 135/2025/QH15, as advised by the HCMC Department of Construction in guidance letter 51038/SXD-QLXDCT (August 2026).
