Ready-to-move apartments in HCMC that foreigners can buy

Don't want to wait 2–3 years for an off-plan tower? These are 24 completed, handed-over apartment projects in Happy Land's portfolio that foreigners can legally buy — you see the real unit, the legal status is clearer, and you can move in or rent it out straight away. Many already have the pink book issued.

24 handed-over projects Get available units & title status
Before you read the list — what foreigners can and cannot buy. Foreigners may own apartments in licensed residential projects, capped at 30% of units per building, held as a 50-year leasehold (extension possible under current regulations, subject to procedures). Foreigners cannot own land, townhouses (nhà phố), villas or social housing — so this page lists apartments only. "Handed over" and "pink book issued" are two different milestones; verify the status of your specific unit. See the full rules in our guides on the 30% foreign-ownership quota and the 50-year leasehold.

Extra caution for coastal & resort projects: some units in beach destinations are resort or condotel-type products, where the legal form, the ownership term and what a foreign buyer may actually hold can differ from a standard city apartment — and rental demand depends on tourism, which is seasonal and cyclical. Ask for the exact legal form and term of the specific unit in writing before committing. Any yield figure quoted by any seller is a projection, not a guarantee.

The list covers handed-over projects in Happy Land's portfolio (remaining primary units and secondary resale units) — not the whole market.

Frequently asked questions

Can foreigners buy handed-over (ready-to-move) apartments in Vietnam?

Yes. Foreigners can buy apartments in a licensed residential project within the 30% cap per building, held as a 50-year leasehold (extension is possible under current regulations, subject to procedures). Handed-over units are especially attractive to foreign buyers because you can inspect the actual unit, the legal status is clearer, and you can move in or rent it out immediately. Foreigners cannot own land, townhouses (nhà phố), villas or social housing (nhà ở xã hội) — which is why this list contains apartments only.

Does "handed over" mean the pink book has already been issued?

Not always — they are two separate milestones. "Handed over" means the building is completed and buyers have received their units; the pink book (ownership certificate) is issued afterwards and, in some projects, tower by tower. Several projects here already have certificates issued, others are still in the issuing process. Always verify the certificate status of the specific unit before you pay — Happy Land can confirm it per unit.

If I buy a resale unit from another foreign owner, do I get a fresh 50 years?

Usually not. When you buy from another foreign owner, the 50-year term is generally counted as the remaining part of the original term rather than restarting. When you buy from a Vietnamese owner or from the developer within the foreign quota, the term is counted from your certificate. Because this materially affects value, confirm the exact remaining term and the building's remaining foreign quota in writing before signing.

Is this list all ready-to-move apartments in Ho Chi Minh City?

No — these are 24 handed-over apartment projects in Happy Land's distribution portfolio (remaining primary units and secondary resale units) that foreigners can buy, not the entire market. Some projects hand over tower by tower, so status can differ per unit. Prices shown are indicative and change per unit, floor and view.

Why buy a completed unit instead of an off-plan project?

With a completed unit you see the real apartment instead of a rendering, the legal status is further along, and you can live in it or start renting immediately rather than paying loan interest for 2–3 years while you wait. The trade-offs: off-plan projects often have staged payment schedules and developer incentives, while completed units usually require a larger amount upfront. This is general information, not investment advice.
