Phan Thanh Huy, general director of Novaland, said his group would be injecting about VND3 trillion into Lexington Residence on Mai Chi Tho Street in District 2, Icon 56 on Ben Van Don Street in District 4 and Galaxy 9 on Nguyen Khoai Street in District 4.

The combined number of apartment units in the three projects is around 2,000, with 1,300 of them at Lexington Residence, 200 at Icon 56 and the remainder at Galaxy 9.

Huy described the locations of these projects as great and said their investors had not been able to proceed with construction work due to financial constraints sparked by the country’s economic slump.

New financing and proper product development are one of the solutions to coping with the current hindrances to the property sector, he said, noting that given falling incomes, people could hardly afford to buy apartments at high prices.

Novaland could offer affordable apartment prices at the three projects as it could cut capital costs, spend no time on approval procedures as required for new projects, and quickly put these half-done projects into operation.

The firm said prices could be 20-40% lower than at other projects in the same areas. A Lexington Residence apartment costs around VND1.3 billion and moreover, buyers could choose a deferred payment plan without extra cost, in which they pay about VND19 million a month. The price is around VND2 billion per unit at Icon 56 and some VND1.5 billion at Galaxy. In Brief
