Understanding property titles in Cambodia

(The Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction / Phan Soumy)What is a property title?A title or โ€˜deedโ€™ is an official document confirming who owns the property, its location, and what rights the property owner enjoys. It should be noted that a significant percentage of land in Cambodia is not registered with the National Land Office and has no official land title certificate to secure the land on behalf of the owner.During the civil war period between 1975 and 1979, all Cambodian land title records were destroyed. This made any definitive proof of property ownership impossible after the war. A land law was passed in 1992 to establish the groundwork for land ownership, but it wasn't until its 2001 revision that allowed private ownership of land in Cambodia. The 2001 Land Law allowed for the creation of a land registry system enabling the issuance of Cambodia land titles. To date, over two million Cambodian land titles have been issued to citizens.Property ownership can now be secured by one of three forms of Cambodia land title: Hard title, Soft title, and Private Ownership in Co-owned Buildings โ€“ also known as Strata Title. In addition, an LMAP title is also now available.One of the most frequently asked questions is "Can foreigners own land or landed property in Cambodia?" The quick answer is No. The Cambodian Constitution prohibits foreign nationals from owning land and landed properties in the country.There are, however, indirect mechanisms of "ownership" such as the Nominee structure and Land concessions for development. Visit our guide to Property Ownership Mechanisms for Foreigners in Cambodia for more information.Hard Title in CambodiaHard titles are the most secure proof of property ownership and are considered the best Cambodian land title.Hard titles are certification of ownership provided by the Cambodian Land Management and Planning office. Hard Titles also include detailed information recognised and certified at a national level by the Ministry of Land and the Cadastral Office. It should be noted that a transfer tax applies when hard title transactions occur.A quick summary of what is a Hard Title in Cambodia:The Hard title is the strongest form of property ownership in Cambodia.In the rare occurrence that a disputed land has both a Hard Title and a Soft Title, the owner of the Hard Title will win the dispute.A Hard title is a land ownership certificate provided by the Land Management and Planning office.Hard titles contain detailed information that has been duly recognised and certified at a national level with the Ministry of Land and the concerned cadastral office.A Transfer tax of 4% per cent will be paid based on the total property value upon the facilitation of the Hard Title transfer.The facilitation of a Hard Title transfer usually takes up to 12 weeks.Foreign nationals are constitutionally prohibited from obtaining Hard Titles. By extension, this prohibits foreign nationals from owning land and landed properties in Cambodia.Soft Title in CambodiaA Soft Title is the most commonly issued Cambodian land title. The Soft Title, however, is only recognised at the local government level. Soft titles are provided at the local Sangkat or district office and are not registered at a national level.The Sangkat (commune) or Phum (village) chief will issue a letter of possessory rights, which refers to the right of โ€œpossessionโ€ of property. A person is in โ€œpossessionโ€ of the property when she/he physically occupies the property but is not the owner of the land as recognised by the authority.Although not as secure as a Hard title, they are still considered evidence of possession. Historically, many land transactions have occurred as soft titles to avoid transfer taxes and fees. However, most new major developments are being transacted with hard titlesA quick summary of what is a Soft Title in Cambodia:A Soft Title is the most common form of ownership and the most commonly issued Cambodian land title as the transfer taxes and fees are cheaper than a Hard Title.It is estimated that 85% of Cambodian property owners only have Soft Titles to back up their property claims.It is a Cambodian land title that is recognised at the local government level (Sangkats & Khans).Soft Titles are provided by the local Sangkat or District office and are not registered at a national level - but are still considered a valid legal document of ownership.ย Soft Titles are relatively cheaper and quicker to acquire for Cambodians.Estimated to take anywhere between 10 to 12 working days to process.Foreign nationals are prohibited from owning a Soft Title. By extension, this prohibits foreign nationals from owning land and landed properties in CambodiaCambodian Strata TitlePrivate ownership in co-owned (strata) buildings is a recently introduced form of property title that also allows foreigners to legally own property in Cambodia.Co-owned buildings or Strata-titled buildings are defined as buildings in which several owners reside, consisting of some parts that are the exclusive ownership of each co-owner (private units), and some other parts that are common spaces for the common use of co-owners (common areas).A quick summary of what a Strata Title in Cambodia is:A Strata Title is a special title commonly used for condo unit purchases that is available to both Cambodian nationals and foreign nationals.There are other mechanisms not necessarily involving a Strata Title available for property ownership for Foreign nationals which you can see in ourย investment guide.Strata Titles can only be granted if the property in question satisfies these criteria: Only applicable to buildings constructed in 2010 and beyond.Foreigners can only own 70% of the total surface area of the building or property.Strata Titles cannot be issued for properties on the ground floor and/or underground.Strata Titles cannot be issued for any property within 30km of the nearest land border.Private Ownership in co-owned buildings (also known as Strata Title) is the most recent form of ownership and allows foreigners to legally own property in Cambodia.Strata Title is a less common Cambodia land title, but the numbers issued are growing fast.Most new condo development projects offer this type of title to accommodate foreign demand to own property in Cambodia.The Law on Foreign Ownershipโ€™ was promulgated on 24 May 2010. This law limits foreign ownership to co-owned buildings. Foreigners still cannot own land, as it is unconstitutional.Strata Titles are issued by the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction. This means Strata Titles are recognized on a national level.A Transfer tax of 4% percent will be paid based on the total property value upon the facilitation of the Strata Title transfer.LMAP Title in CambodiaTo improve land tenure security, a titling system called LMAP (Land Management and Administration Project) has been introduced in Cambodia.Based on official GPS coordinates, land plots are being registered throughout the country. Should an LMAP title exist for your property already, the borders have been agreed upon between neighbouring parties and are less prone to dispute.A quick summary of what is an LMAP Title in Cambodia:The LMAP Title is another property ownership title issued and recognised on a national level by the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction (MLMUPC) - along with the relevant cadastral offices.The main difference between the LMAP Title from a Hard Title is its inclusion of the exact GPS coordinates that determine the boundaries of the property in question.LMAP Titles can only be obtained on land that has been indexed on a cadastral map. So, if a plot of land has not yet been indexed, the LMAP Title cannot be issued for that property.If the MLMUPC is presently undergoing the necessary LMAP titling process in your village or area where you live, this means you only need to follow what your local authority informs you to do once the project is completed. It is their obligation to communicate with you.It is possible to own a Hard Title without an LMAP Title due to the above-mentioned limitation.A Transfer tax of 4% per cent will be paid based on the total property value upon the facilitation of the LMAP Title transfer.Foreign nationals are not permitted to own an LMAP title. By extension, this prohibits foreign nationals from owning land and landed properties in Cambodia.How to Transfer A Property Title in CambodiaWhen you purchase property or land in Cambodia, it is critical to obtain outright ownership in order to feel secure about your new asset. To complete the process for transferring land titles of ownership, there are particular steps that need to be followed, documents that need to be obtained, as well as the necessary consultations with relevant agencies.Step 1: Verify the title certificate with the relevant Land OfficeThe buyer will first need to verify the land title certificate with the Land Office at the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning and Construction (MLMUPC), to check for any debts or other claims to the property.This process requires:The buyer must obtain the original title certificate from the seller to verify their genuine ownership.The buyer will then verify the title certificate with the Land Office at the MLMUPC.The Land Office will inform the buyer if there are any liens (debts), mortgages, or other claims registered to that property.Relevant Government Agency: Land Office at MLMUPCEstimated time to completion: This takes approximately 10 days (should occur simultaneously to steps 2 and 3)Step 2: Obtain information on the propertyThe buyer must then obtain information on the property from the relevant Commune Council Official. This involves the buyer contacting the village chief or the Commune Council Official in which the property is located to obtain information about the land/property. In addition to this, an official search of the title should take place at the Khan/District Land Office.Relevant Government Agency: Commune Council (Relevant District/Khan office in your propertyโ€™s area)Estimated time to completion: This should take approximately 10 days (we advise that this be done in parallel to Steps 1 and 3)Step 3: Obtain the certificate of incorporation and official documents from the sellerIf the landowner is a legal entity, the buyer must obtain;A copy of the ID of the shareholder, or person acting on behalf of the company.A certified/notarised copy of the Certificate of Incorporation of the sellerโ€™s company as issued by the Ministry of Commerce.Any other official documents from the seller relating to the company and the transaction.All of these documents are needed to verify the accuracy and identity of the company name appearing on the title certificate. Further documents needed to verify the sellerโ€™s authorisation to transfer the property to the buyer are;A special power of attorney.A Resolution signed by the Board of Directors from that company authorising the named individual (seller) to represent the company at the Land Office (MLMUPC).A power of attorney specifically stating that the seller can bring into effect that Resolution to transfer land titles of ownership to the buyer.Relevant Government Agency:ย Ministry of CommerceEstimated time to completion: This process should take around 10 days (should occur simultaneously with steps 1 and 2)Step 4: Apply for registration at the District Land Office (MLMUPC)When the buyer and seller, whether they are as an individual or a company wish to complete the property transaction, they must go together to the District Land Office at the MLMUPC to arrange, prepare, and sign the relevant documents.The documentation needed for this step is:The Companyโ€™s statute.The Companyโ€™s Certificate of Incorporation (obtained in Step 3).Both of the Power of Attorney documents (obtained in Step 3).The original Title Certificate held by the seller must be presented to the District Land Office at the time of signing the deed, in order to have the name of the new owner officially inserted on the document.Relevant Government Agency: District Land Office, MLMUPC (District Land Office of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning & Construction)Estimated time to complete the step: This step takes between 20 and 30 days.Step 5: Pay transfer taxA transfer tax of approximately 4 per cent of the total value of the property is paid to the Ministry of Economy and Finance at the General Department of Taxation, in the district that the transferred property resides. A tax receipt is then issued to prove that the property transfer tax has been paid.In Phnom Penh, however, this tax is not assessed based on the true transacted value of the property; but, rather, based on a schedule of the price of property determined by theย Phnom Penh Municipality. The assessed valuation by the Phnom Penh Municipality is based upon factors such as; the total number of square meters, the landโ€™s location, use, potential use, and other variables.To put this quite simply the transfer tax is not based on the actual price of the land which is sold, which is usually the case, rather it is based on the assessed value made by the Phnom Penh Municipal office, which may be higher than the tax rates in other provinces.If the land is more than 1200 sqm, the surplus of the land will also be subject to โ€œunused land tax.โ€ For land less than 1200 sqm, the unused land tax is not applicable. The time for the General Department of Taxation to complete the calculation of transfer tax will depend on the location of the land and its size.Relevant Government Agency:ย General Department of TaxationEstimated time to complete the step: This process should take around 1 dayStep 6: Return to the cadastral office to complete the registration processAfter all relevant taxes are paid, the parties may return to the cadastral office at the District Land Office of the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning & Construction (MLMUPC) and sign/thumbprint an MLMUPC form for buying/selling real property, as filled in by MLMUPC official.The signing/thumbprinting must be witnessed by a local authority such as the commune chief, who will also give their thumbprint. These procedures are based onย Land Law Articles; 65, 244 and 245. Land Law Article 69 bars the transfer of property unless all necessary taxes are paid. The documentation provided should include payment receipts of the transfer tax (obtained in Step 5).Step 7: Obtain the certificate of title from the Municipal Land OfficeObtain the certificate of title from the Municipal Land Office: The Khan/District land office forwards all the โ€œtransfer documentsโ€ to the Municipal Land Office where it issues the final Certificate of Title in the new ownerโ€™s name. It is now registered.Stay up-to-date on the real estate industry in Cambodia and get real-time updates on real estate news as they happen. Download the Realestate.com.kh App now!Article by:

What Is Maintenance Fee?
What Is Maintenance Fee?

Realestate News
Homeownership comes with a range of financial responsibilities beyond the initial purchase price. One aspect that homeowners often encounter is maintenance fees. In this article, we will explain the concept of maintenance fees and general costs in Cambodia.What Is Maintenance Fee?Also known as service charges or due, these are recurring payments that individuals or entities make to cover the costs associated with maintaining and managing a property, service, or asset. These fees are often used to support ongoing operational expenses, repairs, upgrades, and other essential services. Maintenance fees can be charged on a monthly, quarterly, or annual basis, depending on the arrangement. In the context of homeownership, maintenance fees are typically associated with condominiums and boreys. Residents pay these fees to cover the upkeep of common areas such as landscaping, swimming pools, elevators, and security services. This allows property owners to collectively maintain the shared facilities and services that enhance their quality of living. ย In Cambodia, fees go towards hiring property management companies to oversee the day-to-day operations, address resident concerns, and enforce community rules.How Is the Maintenance Fee Calculated?While a one-size-fits-all formula for calculating maintenance fees doesn't exist, the final expenses are influenced by several factors like the type of services provided (such as common area cleaning, lift maintenance, and security), the facilities available (such as pools and gyms), the size common areas, and the quality and quantity of services demanded by residents. For a condo, the fee ranges from $0.50 to $2 per square metre and for Borey, the maintenance fee will depend on the developer, some might include a security guard, landscaping and garbage collection in the project area.ย Why Is It Important to Regular Maintenance?Similar to any other asset, it's essential to recognise that a property will inevitably age over time. This ageing process can significantly impact its appreciation and value, especially if you intend to sell it. It's crucial to keep in mind that properties naturally undergo changes as they age. Consequently, it's worth considering the implementation of effective property management to oversee the maintenance of the property. This approach ensures that quality maintenance is consistently upheld.ย In conclusion, maintenance fees are a crucial aspect of homeownership within shared communities. While they represent an ongoing expense, maintenance fees contribute to the value and overall appeal of the property.If you are interested in learning more about properties in Cambodia, our real estate agents are ready to assist you.

Photo courtesy of Booking.com)Starting Rent: USD $1,000 per monthOfferings: 1 bedroom to 3 bedroomsSilvertown Metropolitan is a high-end development that offers luxury condos, studios, and serviced apartments in BKK1. Expats, most especially, will appreciate the comforts immediately available. And given Silvertown Metropolitanโ€™s proximity to the Mao Tse Tung Boulevard, anyone staying here can easily find their way to wherever they need to go in the city.Their tagline of โ€œbringing L.A. to Phnom Penhโ€ becomes apparent once you see their offerings and accompanying price tags. Starting at $1,000 per month, Silvertown Metropolitan is one of the more upscale and expensive serviced apartments in Phnom Penh. But does its services justify its price? If money isnโ€™t an object and you donโ€™t want any punches pulled in city pampering, then it certainly does. Their services include a 24-hour full concierge, housekeeping, and high-speed WiFi. Each unit comes fully furnished with a complete kitchen and dining area, laundering facilities, a refrigerator, hairdryer, robes, cable TV, towels, linen, and A/C. All rooms are outfitted with modern furnishings popular in posh West Coast apartments. Amenities such as the rooftop pool and fitness centre are also available for use.(An image of a bedroom in Silvertown Metropolitan serviced apartments. Photo courtesy of Silvertowncambodia.com)But if youโ€™re more into what it offers beyond its premises, then it doesnโ€™t differ too much from the other serviced apartments mentioned in this guide. Silvertown Metropolitan is in the mid-point between Preah Norodom and Preah Monivong Boulevard and sits close to Mao Tse Tung Boulevard. All these roads lead to the popular spots in BKK1, the Russian Market, and Riverside in Daun Penh.Silvertown Metropolitan represents one of the higher ends of the serviced apartment sector and with good reason: It tops the discussion when it comes to what condo has the best service and is well-managed in Phnom Penh.Silvertown Metropolitan Property ListingThe Elysee(The Elysee by Dara is inspired by the French monument, Arc de Triomphe)Starting Rent: USD $750 per monthOfferings: 1 bedroom to 4 bedroomsLocated in the French-inspired suburban area of Koh Pich, a.k.a. The Diamond Island, the Elysee is designed after the majestic Arc de Triomphe. And much like the actual monument, The Elyseeโ€™s vicinity takes after the iconic townhouses and boulevards of modern-day Paris. The Elysee is also one of the newest serviced apartments developed in Phnom Penh.The Elysee certainly tops this shortlist as its French-influenced design comes with luxury amenities and services without necessarily breaking the bank. Units can be rented out for as low as USD $450 a month which already comes fully-furnished and includes Cable TV, internet WiFi, and housekeeping included in the monthly rental - a good package weโ€™re certain anyone definitely appreciates. Renting here gives you access to a fully-equipped fitness center and steam & sauna within the comforts of the apartment.(An image of an apartment for rent in The Elysee. Realestate.com.kh)Koh Pich island lies east of Phnom Penhโ€™s mainland and is one of the fastest-developing areas in the city. Commercial amenities such as banks, cafes, restaurants, and offices can be found throughout The Elyseeโ€™s immediate vicinity. The Elysee sits right on Koh Pich road leading to Samdach Sothearos Boulevard where AEON Mall 1 stands. The same road is connected to Preah Norodom and Mao Tse Tung Boulevard, giving residents access to even more commercial establishments in BKK1, Chamkarmon, and Daun Penh.Koh Pichโ€™s inspired urban design offers a new and unique experience of living in Phnom Penh, making it one of the hottest properties to watch out for - and at a good price.

Photo courtesy of Google Map contributors)Price Range: USD $600 per monthOfferings: 1 bedroom to 3 bedroomsUrban Loft is a serviced apartment located in Sen Sok. While this area is quite some distance from the center centre, Sen Sok itself has seen massive developments in residential and commercial real estate. We recommend this area more for expats rather than tourists as itโ€™s still in the early-mid stages of development and doesnโ€™t have much to offer if youโ€™re not staying long-term.(An image of a bedroom in Urban Loft Sen Sok. Photo from Urbanloft.com)Regardless, Urban Loft offers plenty of space for quality long-term living. Its wide interior design allows for large open-plan condos that maximize light and airflow within each unit. Itโ€™s also fully furnished so moving in is easy and quick - something we know expats would definitely prefer. Urban Loftโ€™s spacious units are complemented by an expansive pool and gym. Families living here can avail of the kindergarten and babysitting services. An array of excellent schools are not too far away as Sen Sok is where boreys (gated communities) are becoming increasingly popular among Khmer families.AEON Mall 2, the biggest mall in the city, is just a 5 to 7-minute drive away. And down the road is the popular wholesale grocery Makro. Choices are becoming increasingly abundant in Sen Sok that going into the city proper is starting to become an option rather than a necessity.Urban Loft Property ListingThe View Serviced Residences(An image of The View Serviced Residences in BKK1. Photo courtesy of Agoda.com)Starting Rent: USD $1,000 per monthOfferings: 1 bedroom to 2 bedroomsThe View Serviced Residences is one of the premier serviced apartments in BKK1. Inspired by Japanese interior design, The Viewโ€™s units offer a simplistic charm many tourists and expatriates would find attractive.The View is at the crossroads of Phnom Penhโ€™s many attractions and modern conveniences.

Its proximity to popular tourist and expat spots makes it a good choice for foreign travelers wanting to get a peek of the many offerings within the Kingdom.(The View Serviced Residences was designed by Japanese architect Kato Yoshio. Realestate.com.kh)But whatโ€™s a serviced apartment without talking about services? Starting at $1,000 per month, residents get fully-furnished rooms, twice-a-week housekeeping, fitness centre, and access to an infinity pool, jacuzzi, and steam room in the common areas. A cafe and restaurant are also serving residents inside the apartment building.Whether youโ€™re by yourself or with your family, just visiting or staying for some time, the Viewโ€™s units may be what youโ€™re looking for considering its ambiance and location.The View Serviced Residence Property ListingTK Royal One(An image of the exterior of TK Royal One in Toul Kork.

Each unit is spacious and comes with a private balcony providing an astounding view of the cityโ€™s rising skyline. Amenities in TK Royal One include internet Wi-Fi, a fitness centre, swimming pools, a parking area, and a rooftop garden.TK Royal One Property ListingAre serviced apartments worth it?The choice entirely depends on you as you are the best judge of your personal needs and budget. Most serviced apartments in Phnom Penh are proportionally more expensive than standalone apartments without 24/7 concierge services, regular housekeeping, fitness centre, and a swimming pool. If these services are important to you, then serviced apartments could be well worth the extra hundred or so dollars a month.On the other hand, if youโ€™re the type of person who can live without these services, you can save a few hundred dollars which you can allot more to necessities like food or other luxuries like traveling across Cambodia and its neighbouring countries.

Establishing a Landholding Company: The Best Mechanism for Acquiring Foreign Ownership of Property?
Establishing a Landholding Company: The Best Mechanism for Acquiring Foreign Ownership of Property?
June 7, 2022, 3:10 a.m.
Property Reviews
Through numerous legal reforms, and much more clarity in the land titling system, the mechanisms in which foreigners can establish control and ownership over property in the Kingdom now come in several forms. Private ownership of units in a co-owned building (more commonly known as โ€œstrata titleโ€), was the first legal instrument in allowing foreigners any ownership rights over property. However strata title is a right of ownership that is limited to specific units, and other legal restraints, so for a prospective foreign investor looking to develop on a larger scale- more freedom in acquiring land and property is needed - see Realestate.com.kh'sย Foreign Ownership in Cambodia: Laws & Regulation with Matthew Rendallย for more information.One of the mechanisms which can be used in the acquisition of property is the establishment of a landholding company. This is a limited liability company incorporated under Cambodian law that owns property on behalf of foreigners. The most critical factor in establishing a legitimate landholding company is that 51% of this company must be owned by a Cambodian National. However, despite on paper the Cambodian party will hold the majority of the shares, the shareholder agreement between the parties can be structured in such a way that the foreign party will hold and exercise control and management of the company.The necessary requirement for majority ownership by Nationalsโ€™, and the subsequent benefits once the company is legitimately established is laid out in the law itself. ย According to the Law on the Investment of the Kingdom of Cambodia (Chapter VI, Article 16): โ€œLegal entities in which more than 51% of the equity capital are directly owned by natural persons or legal entities holding Cambodian citizenshipโ€ The available benefits are further described: โ€œuse of land shall be permitted to investors, including concessions, short term leases, long-term leases which are renewable in compliance with the provisions of the Land Law.These benefits that are conferred by law through this structure reach far beyond that which are available by other foreign ownership mechanisms, and are legally recognized. ย Regarding the registration process for establishing a landholding company, Mr. Grant Fitzgerald, General Manager of IPS Cambodia, stated โ€œโ€™The most common way to set up the landholding company is through a lawyer who will be responsible for preparing all the legal documents that are required.โ€Mr. Fitzgerald continued by on by stating he believes that there are four key steps in the process of setting up the company:Step1: The foreign party needs to have a relationship of trust with the Cambodian partner;Step 2: The application process for setting up the landholding company needs to be followed ย ย along with any necessary legal consultation.Step 3: The parties need to have completed the Article of Association. This document outlines ย the purpose of the company, duties and responsibilities of its members recorded and defined clearly.Step 4: The parties can then seek to obtain the complete registration of the company.Mr. Fitzgerald elaborated that the Article of Association is the most critical document in the process and that, โ€œIt is a complicated process writing up [the Article of Association] as it needs to clarify details about shares, power, decision making rights and other obligations between Cambodian and foreign shareholders. This is a key reason why a good lawyer needs to be consulted throughout the process.โ€โ€œGenerally, as well as outlining the ownership percentages, the Article of Association will be structured with two classes of shares, each having different rights of control. This is to ensure that the foreign party is given โ€œspecial powerโ€ to make decisions over the land.โ€โ€œThe duration of setting up the landholding company can take from two to three months and cost $3,000 to $10,000 or sometimes above that, dependent on whether you hire local or international lawyerโ€ Mr. Fitzgerald added.Having owned a landholding company in Cambodia, Mr. Dana Taylor commenced business in Cambodia since 2009, and owns two companies: Brocon; a landholding company, and www.orome.asia, a property website.Talking about the process Mr.Taylor said, โ€œI bought an existing company and it took about six months to complete all the processes and have the company transferred from the previous ownerโ€ Mr. Taylor estimates he spent approximately $8,000 through the whole transfer process.Mr. Taylor has found multiple benefits in owning a landholding company, but primarily the ability to buy land and other properties with hard title ownership has enabled major progression for his business. However with recently Ministry reforms in relation to tax requirements, Taylor believes the establishment of a landholding company could become more complicated, but believes this will not have a major impact - especially for larger scale companies.Ultimately, owning property through establishing a landholding company is the safest way of acquisition compared to other property investment mechanisms, because it contains verified documents, lawyer involvement and is recognized by the law itself. As long as both foreign and Cambodian parties have a relationship of trust and follow a clear and transparent process, the establishment of the landholding company should be one which is mutually beneficial.Search property for sale in Cambodia on Realestate.com.kh today - Or learn the latest real estate news in Cambodia.
New Rail Link Boosts Phnom Penh Property Developer Confidence
New Rail Link Boosts Phnom Penh Property Developer Confidence
June 6, 2022, 5:04 p.m.
Property Reviews
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 railwayโ€™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: โ€œthis 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 countryโ€™s railroad company, Royal Railway.โ€โ€œFour $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,โ€ 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.โ€The projectโ€™s budget was confidential, but was โ€œpart of a current maintenance budgetโ€ 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 investorโ€™ confidence in the capital, in particular for projects situated along or near Russian boulevard. ย 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.โ€Mr. Chan added: โ€œthe 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: โ€œthe 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.โ€ ย โ€œThe 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 Penhโ€™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,โ€ Mr. Chenyi added.Oknha Ly Kun Thai, CEO of The Gateway project, said: โ€œthis new railway is quite essential for Cambodia because Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) will increase commercial developments and boost the countryโ€™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.โ€โ€œAn efficient mode of transportation is the key to city development that helps boost general commercial activity. This is good news for Cambodiaโ€™s property market as better and improved transportation infrastructure in the area will boost property prices and rental yield,โ€ 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 Gatewayโ€™s residents will enjoy great advantage of traveling to and from Phnom Penhโ€™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

The Sky Tree development is situated at the Russey Keo district, a very prominent neighbourhood of the Toul Kork district.ย Wu is proud to say that the project is โ€œstrategically located in a very desirable area, surrounded by various amenities.

According to the developerโ€™s source, a future MRT station will also be built near The Gateway project.The developerโ€™s research shows high potential for return and a doubling of capital appreciation every 5 years due to high foreign direct investment from countries like Japan, Korea, Europe, and China.
