What Happened
The Ministry of Construction, through Steering Committee 751, reported that by mid-2026, more than 1,000 stalled real estate projects have been resolved, unlocking over 800,000 billion VND in investment capital. The committee is building a national database to classify obstacles and coordinate resolution across ministries and localities.
Hoang Thu Hang, Deputy Director of the Housing and Real Estate Market Management Department, said unblocking these projects will supplement supply, stabilize prices, and improve housing access. In Hanoi, projects like NO-11 in Dịch Vọng New Urban Area and CEOHomes Hana Garden have resumed. In Ho Chi Minh City, all 838 projects under review have been handled, with 417 fully resolved legally.
Market Context
Novaland (NVL), listed on HOSE, closed at 13,700 VND on August 6, 2026. The company has been restructuring and resolving legal issues across its portfolio. The macro-policy push to unblock projects aligns with NVL’s efforts to accelerate construction, particularly The Grand Manhattan, which is expected to hand over in 2026. This policy momentum could support NVL’s recovery and improve market sentiment for the real estate sector.
Strategic Significance
For long-term investors, the resolution of stalled projects is a critical catalyst for Vietnam’s real estate market. It unlocks significant capital and land resources, enabling developers like NVL to resume projects and generate revenue. The government’s systematic approach, including a national database and coordinated resolution, signals sustained policy commitment. This could reduce legal risks for developers and improve the investment climate, potentially leading to a supply-side recovery and more stable prices.
