Mortgages (or home loans) are an essential consideration for most people buying, selling, or simply owning a home. While the concept of borrowing from a bank or lender appears simple - home loans can be a lot harder to understand than you might first think. However, realestate.com.kh is here to help with our “mortgage matters” series. And when you are ready to consider a loan more seriously, we can even put you in touch with Cambodia’s leading lenders.Inquire for a home loan here.Drawing on  the experience of others who have mortgages (any number of your friends and family who already have a home loan), and with a little extra homework, we believe that any body can make sound financial decisions.What is a Mortgage?A mortgage is a loan, quite simply, with your house and land used as security for that loan. That means, if you don't pay back the loan in the prescribed time frame, the lender (usually a bank) has the right to foreclose your home. Foreclosing means to take possession of a mortgaged property when the mortgagor fails to keep up their mortgage payments. Basically, the bank takes your home and sells it to settle the debt. The loan is secured by a “lien” (in other words, the "mortgage") against the property in question (your house and land). The lender still doesn't own the house, you do. But if you can't pay, they have the lien with your house as their collateral/security.  You still have full ownership rights - yet subject to the mortgage.When looking for your first mortgage is it most important to consider two things: What you can actually afford?What you can borrow?Why are these two questions different? Because, the lender/bank is never going to look at how much you spend in a month on partying with friends, or movies and dinner, or how happy you'll be with a big payment.Put in your loan requirements in realestate.com.kh's mortgage calculator now! In reality, they may well be willing to loan you considerably more than you think you can spend on your home mortgage. You must consider this seriously - because only you know how much flexibility your lifestyle and spending habits have, which ultimately determines how much you can afford when searching for a new home. If you miscalculate this - you risk not being able to satisfy payments and ultimately losing your new home.Learn more about how to budget better for you and your family here.A lender/bank will look at your income, and future income potential vs. your proposed debt, as well as your bank savings and credit history. Having considered these factors, the bank will then determine how much of a risk you'd be for the lender/bank to take on and issue a loan. Meanwhile, they look at the value of the house you want to buy, and potential future value, and compare against the interest rate of the loan you'll be getting. After this analysis, the bank/lender arrives at a loan amount that they consider a healthy risk. If all things go to plan, this loan amount will match (or potentially exceed) what you need to satisfy your down payment and the final price of the house you want to purchase.Read part 2 of Realestate.com.kh’s “mortgage matters” series.

The latest boost for the kingdom’s booming property industry will kick off the prestigious industry awards programme in 2016... As the acclaimed Asia Property Awards officially launches in Cambodia Undoubtedly home to one of Southeast Asia’s most exciting and rapidly evolving property markets, Cambodia is set to receive the region’s real estate industry seal of approval when it becomes the latest country to be included in the coveted, decade-old Asia Property Awards series. Sponsored by TEKA, the first Cambodia Property Awards 2016 will recognise and reward the achievements of the country’s most successful, dynamic and innovative developers and developments, as well as introducing the market to a wider regional audience of affluent investors and major industry players. The Awards’ successful launch party was held on Tuesday, 6 October, at the Chinese House in Phnom Penh, attended by nearly 150 guests and members of the press. Nominations from industry players and the general public have now started to pour in for the Cambodia edition, and will close on Friday, 4 December. The glittering awards ceremony is set to take place on Thursday, 25 February 2016 at the Sofitel Phnom Penh Phokeethra and will present more than 20 awards covering the condominium, housing, hotel, office, retail, green and mixed-use segments, all of which will be grouped into three main sections, namely Developer, Development and Design. While Cambodia’s property market may not yet be as established as its regional counterparts, the kingdom is stepping up in the development sector, with numerous low-rise and ambitious high-rise projects currently in the planning stages or under construction in Phnom Penh, which is undoubtedly establishing itself as a desirable investment destination due to the relatively low prices and average rental yields of 5.3 percent – very attractive for an emerging market. Industry analysts also expect the overall condominium market in the capital to increase its supply by 40 percent within the next three years, which is one indication of the growing interest in local real estate. Other destinations such as Siem Reap and Sihanoukville province are also showing on many local and foreign investors’ radars, thanks to the kingdom’s existing laws giving investment incentives, and an open and free economy. “Cambodia is a comparatively small market, but it is quickly emerging and is definitely deserving of the recognition it will receive at their very own Property Awards,” said Terry Blackburn, CEO of Ensign Media, event organiser and publisher of Asia’s industry leading magazine, Property Report. “Competing in Cambodia will give the winners of the top awards the opportunity to showcase their latest projects at our South East Asia Property Awards grand finale to be held in Singapore.” As is the case with all the events of the Asia Property Awards, successful entries will be supervised by BDO International, one of the world’s largest accounting firms, and assessed by an independent panel of highly-experienced judges led by chairman Simon Griffiths, associate director of CBRE Cambodia. “There is a definite market trend in Cambodia of a flight to quality,” Griffiths said. “If developers can truly distinguish themselves through innovative and truly quality developments, from design and architecture to construction, execution and operation and by winning an independent award it helps consumers identify those properties, it can only be a good thing for developers and design firms.” For more information on the inaugural Cambodia Property Awards, visit the website. Super early bird tickets for the gala dinner are available now at Ensign-Media.com, offered until 11 December only. Sponsorship and media partner opportunities for the kingdom’s premier real estate event are also available. For details, email info@asiapropertyawards.com or call +66 (0) 2662 5195.

The UK Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICs) launched their first specialist course on Plant and Machinery Valuation, in partnership with IBC, on the 3rd September in Phnom Penh, The course, which represents a first for the Kingdom, taught local and international participants the fundamentals of Plant & Machinery (P&M) Valuation Standards, Valuation Methodologies, Code of Ethics, and Risk Management principles. RICS promotes and enforces the highest professional qualifications and standards in the development and management of land, real estate, construction and infrastructure. The organisation accredits 118,000 professionals and any individual or firm registered with RICS is subject to it's quality assurance. Their expertise covers property, asset valuation, real estate management; the development of infrastructure; and the management of natural resources, such as mining, farms and woodland. Read another useful article about valuation standards in Cambodia here. In addition to the RICS course, BritCham, in partnership with IBC and RICs, recently organised a half-day forum on the promotion of building and fire safety standards. To-date Cambodia still does not have a set of Building or Fire Safety standards in the area of construction. Several initiatives within the Government are currently being developed, as well as by the private sector and relevant institutions. This led to the UK Government’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office and UK Trade and Investment to commission the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICs) to produce a report on the topic with a view to providing the Cambodian Government with assistance in developing building standards and ensuring better regulation. The Report's findings and recommendations were presented to and welcomed by the Government last year. The Report further provided the foundation for the country’s first Building ConstructionLaw, drafted by H.E. Dr. SOK Siphana. Following on from this, the purpose of the joint IBC and BritCham seminar was to bring together relevant stakeholders - both from the private and public sector - to examine the findings and recommendations of the RICs report and discuss a common approach to the developing building and fire safety standards for Cambodia.

Is your air conditioning bill causing you financial stress? Do you want to reduce your home or office's’ carbon footprint but still keep your body cool? Realestate.com.kh spoke with Professor Dr. Karl Wagner, from the School of Business at the University of Kuala Lumpur, a world-renowned specialist on green building science, about some simple ways to cool down your buildings and your bodies, without turning up the air con!Professor Wagner shares his “secret recipe to enjoy our daily “habitat” in a tropically adapted energy efficient building.” Evaporative Cooling: Whenever you feel hot when coming from outside the house back indoors, typically in temperatures of above 26 - 30ºC, take a more extensive cool shower of 2-3 minutes, and dry only what is socially necessary. This encourages evaporation cooling across your body, which will bring down your body temperature for longer. “Chill-In” Office Booths: In the commercial application of this, offices can provide air conditioned “chill-in” rooms at the entrance of the building - potentially with work stations and wifi. These cooling pens allow for staff to cool down when they first enter the office from the heat outside. Once all staff spend a few minutes in these designated “chill-in” rooms, they can then enjoy a warmer temperature inside their office space. Instead of pumping up the air con across the entire office space at low temperatures, or rising and lowering the entire office temperature based on weather conditions, these temporary “chill-in” spaces allow all staff to cool down their bodies before they enter the office, and be better acclimatized to warmer temperatures once inside their work space. This saves on energy costs for the office, and means cool air isn’t wasted. It also encourages body temperatures to adapt to medium temperatures in the longer term. No Heavy Bed Sheets: In sleeping rooms, do not use thick comforters/duvets on the bed - because these do nothing but trap heat under you. Accepting tropical thermal comfort also means the demise of bed comforters! Duvets make sense to the colder temperatures of northern countries where they were invented - but not Cambodia, or other tropical climates. In an aircon cooled arena such as your bedroom, they create a vicious circle - the thicker the duvet, the lower we set the air con, otherwise we sweat under or even on top of the thick blanket. Take it off and replace it with a thin sheet. Escape During the Heat of the Day: If you have a typically un-insulated house in Cambodia, leave the house during the hot afternoon hours whenever possible. This is because, without heavy air con usage, it is impossible to keep it cool at these times. Offices, shopping malls, libraries and other public places are great getaways during the heat of the day. They are cooled down to digestible thermal comfort zones anyway, and going out for shopping and other daily needs will both increase your stamina and fight obesity (if this is an issue). Green Lifestyle Jives in Tandem with a Healthy Lifestyle: It is an old rule, independent of cultures, not to eat anytime up to 3 hours before you intend to sleep. Our digestion appreciates this and, instead of sweating due to late heavy meal, we can easily stand and appreciate a higher comfort temperature. We don’t have to be nutritionists to switch our eating clock forward. If we feel over saturated after a belated meal, a walk through the park or more intense evening exercises can work miracles to burn the inadvertent surplus of calories and cool your body down naturally.

*that we have seen. Chinese developers are breaking records in the speed of construction for new developments.In recent news, a developer in China launched its 57-storey, 838 meter skyscraper in Changsha City, alongside the Xianjiang River.The skyscraper was built, from foundation to completion, in less than three weeks using prefabricated modular technology developed by a company called Broad Sustainable Building. One of the fastest buildings yet. The fastest residential and commercial building, named ‘Sky City’, was originally planed to be completed at a rate of five storeys per day, with exteriors and interiors, finished within 90 days. The modified version of the actual Sky City comprises 800 high- and low-income apartments, and office space for an estimated 4,000 occupants. The Sky City tower covers a total area of180,000 sqm, and will also have places for a variety of shops, restaurants, and possibly hospitality, educational and commercial spaces.

The borey life is the dream of countless families across Cambodia. However, not all boreys are equal. Here is a checklist from Realestate.com.kh to make sure you are in fact securing the right property for you and your family - and a sound investment.What is a borey?Essentially, a borey is a gated community of flat houses, twin villa houses and single villa houses, including public areas, gardens and full security services. Those who want to buy a borey home are looking for privacy, a safe place for their family to grow, areas where communities can develop, and a place where all modern amenities are assured. They are they prefered first home of newlywed Cambodian couples looking to start a new family. Not Cambodian? Not sure if you can buy a borey? Learn about foreign ownership laws here. Learn more about Phnom Penh Residential Space here.Is it a registered borey you’re buying?Before purchasing any “borey” home, or any gated community home which calls itself a “borey,” you must first ensure it is infact registered as a borey and has all the correct licenses. Ask your real estate agent, or the property owner, to provide all certification before considering purchasing the property. Here is what you need to see:Correct Hard Title:  The borey development owner must first have hard title for the entire project property, and it must be divided into individual hard titles for each housing unit within the borey. Learn more about Cambodian land titles here.Registered Development Company: The owner/developer must be a registered Cambodian company.Master Plan Approval: Before any construction begins on a borey development, the Ministry of Land Management must first approve the developer's Master Plan.Construction License: Having approved the master plan, the construction company is scrutinized. In order for a gated community development to call itself a “Borey,” it must be built by a single, registered construction company, with a license to construct from the Ministry of Land Management. This ensures the buildings are built to an adequate standard, and necessary amenities and infrastructure are guaranteed.Borey License: If everything is in order, the Ministry of Economics and Finance issues a borey license - which means that the Government is satisfied with the quality of the development’s design and sales plans, and the correct land titles for that housing project are in order. Each property within the development will have an independent hard title, meaning the future home owner has full ownership rights on purchase. This means the development can legally be called a “borey”.Buying a registered borey home means due diligence has been done for you by the Government - at a national level - and you can guarantee that the correct construction and legal processes have been followed.In comparison, Cambodia hosts many large developments of flat houses which look exactly the same as a borey community in their design, and sometimes even called a borey in their marketing. However, those developments have not been scrutinized or licensed. Developers avoid registering as a borey because of the additional expense and scrutiny over their construction and legal standards. To build and sell a flathouse development, not titled as a borey, means less licensing is required, and official permission for construction and selling is only needed at a Khan or Sangkat level. Your title may not be valid, and the quality of the house’s construction and its Sales and Purchase Agreement is not certain. Avoid unregistered flathouse developments, or risk investing in a insecure asset that may not match pre-sale descriptions.Check out Cambodia’s latest and greatest borey homes for sale and rent on realestate.com.kh today!

See the ECC Featured Listing on the New Developments page The East Commercial Centre (ECC), slated for completion along Norodom Boulevard in late 2017, seeks to create a hub for new business in Cambodia. The interior layout of ECC will reflect the demand of start-ups and international business entrants as office space is available in compact and affordable units, between 33msq and 66msq per unit, with rental pricing as low as $15 - $20 per square meter, and managerial fees less than $2 per square meter. All common areas lighting will be solar powered to further reduce managerial fees and the building’s carbon footprint. The East Commercial Center shall offer affordable and highly practical office space in the heart of Phnom Penh. However, the ECC, a single tower of 38 floors, is part of phase one of a much larger development project. East View, the development that will host the ECC Office tower, will include three 38 floor towers in the first phase of the project, all developed by Eastland (HK) Ltd. The two other 38 floor towers that will complement the ECC tower are entirely residential - the East View Residences. The advantage of having one office tower, ECC, and two residential towers in the same development, the East View Residence towers, is that businesses that buy or rent office space in the ECC tower will be able to live within the East View Residential towers. Living close to your business headquarters is a competitive advantage in downtown Phnom Penh, where traffic congestion is a growing consideration. Also, no time and money spent on transport to your place of work means more time and money for your family, friends and pursuing new business opportunities. The East Commercial Centre (ECC), slated for completion along Norodom Boulevard in late 2017, seeks to create a hub for new business in Cambodia. Since the announcement of the construction of the first phase of the East View Development, namely the ECC tower and the first two Residential towers, Eastland has received great feedback from the local and international market - businesses want to reserve office space in the commercial center and families and business people want to buy units within the first two residential towers. In light of this very positive response and the sense responsibility this has evoked in the developer, Eastland intends to start the second phase of the Eastview development shortly. The second phase will include a business hotel and supporting facilities to meet the ECC’s demand. Some of these additional facilities will include a high-end club, a swimming pool and a full health and gym center. A lot of real estate agents have also shown great interest in the ECC and East View development, and Eastland has confidence that over half of the development will be able to be sold to locals within the Cambodian market.  See the ECC Featured Listing on the New Developments page

See the ECC Featured Listing on the New Developments page The Cambodian business sector is emerging like never before, believes CEO of East Land Development Co. Ltd., Mr Sam Yang. However, steps still need to be taken to support innovative startups as they attempt to enter the market.Currently, Phnom Penh hosts a huge population of young up and coming business people. They are fast learners, extremely innovative, connected to world market trends and ideas through an intimate engagement with the internet - and they are driven to start their own businesses. Meanwhile, International companies are increasingly interested in moving an office to Cambodia because investment incentives are some of the best in the region, and Cambodia is located in the heart of ASEAN. However, the current office space market in Phnom Penh is unsuited to the growing demand. These types of start-up businesses are not interested in high grade office space, as rental rates are too high, and instead find themselves adapting villas or flat houses into office space. Yet, these types of office properties include no amenities suitable for modern business and don’t allow the development of micro-business communities and entrepreneurial opportunities that a designated office complex truly nurtures.The East Commercial Centre (ECC), slated for completion along Norodom Boulevard in late 2017, seeks to create a hub for new business in Cambodia. The interior layout of East Commercial Center will reflect the demand of start-ups and international business entrants as office space is available in compact and affordable units, between 33msq and 66msq per unit, with rental pricing as low as $15 - $20 per square meter, and managerial fees less than $2 per square meter. All common areas lighting will be solar powered to further reduce managerial fees and the building’s carbon footprint. The East Commercial Center shall offer affordable and highly practical office space in the heart of Phnom Penh. As a 38 floor office tower, the East Commercial Center will be the highest pure office space development that Cambodia has yet to host, and will include 3 entire floors designated to car parking - a total of 300 parking lots; and an additional floor designated solely for moto parking - all reserved for ECC occupants. Meanwhile, the East Commercial Center will incorporate two entire floors as ‘Business Centers’ - the sixth and 22nd floors - which will be avaliable for all occupants to use. These floors will hold all amenities for businesses, such as a copy center, communications center and various conference rooms - the largest on each floor being a 300 square meter conference room. The East Commercial Center will also call on Donghua Holding Foundation to sponsor entrepreneurs with promising business ideas. This will take the form of an ‘Emerging Markets Fund’ that will offer entrepreneurs and startups discounted office space, ongoing business support and mentorship with the Donghua Holding Foundation, and ongoing assistance in turning their business dreams into reality. The underlying intention of this sponsorship fund is to help young businesses with promise gain traction in the Cambodian market and ASEAN community - even if they may lack the start up capital to support themselves.See the ECC Featured Listing on the New Developments page

Knight Frank, one of Realestate.com.kh's latest "featured agents", launches its first inaugural Cambodia Real Estate Highlights 1H2015 - this is the first-ever 10-page Cambodia Real Estate Highlights 1H 2015 Report which provides key information on developments in the retail and office sectors in Phnom Penh, which are pertinent to investors, developers and end-users in their decision-making process to enter the frontier market.   Knight Frank, the independent global property consultancy, launched its first-ever Cambodia Real Estate Highlights 1H 2015 Report on September 3 2015.Strategically located between Bangkok and Saigon, Phnom Penh is at the centre of the East-West corridor between the two major regional trading hubs.  With an open door policy on foreign domestic investment (FDI), Cambodia has witnessed an influx of foreign developers seeking to take advantage of the relatively low land prices and an increasing demand for international standard real estate products. Mr Ross Wheble, Country Manager of Knight Frank Cambodia, highlights, “We are already seeing significant FDI in infrastructure and the industrial sector, and we expect this trend to continue with majority of the FDI coming from China and Japan. [caption id="attachment_78273" align="alignright" width="255"] Mr Ross Wheble, Country Manager Knight Frank Cambodia[/caption] “With a key focus on attracting FDI into Cambodia, the Government has already approached the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) to assist with the creation of a Construction Code to improve building standards, and to advise on the implementation of fire and health & safety standards. This not only benefits the people of Cambodia, but also provides additional investor confidence. “Cambodia is entering a new era of economic development.  With an abundant supply of natural resources and fertile land, we anticipate that the agricultural sector will be the next key growth area. Currently, it is underutilised due to a lack of local expertise.” Commercial real estate in Cambodia Cambodia was severely impacted by the global financial crisis since its economy relied heavily on exported goods.  Land prices in prime locations declined by as much as half between 2008 and 2010, with numerous large-scale development projects being placed on hold. With the implementation of government policies enabling strata titling and foreign ownership, the decline in land prices reversed towards the second half of 2010 supported by increasing demand from foreign purchasers of condominiums and rising rents for both office and retail space due to a limited supply. Today, land prices in Phnom Penh have increased by as much as 80% since 2010 with a forecast of a further 25% increase for 2015. Comparing with the ASEAN markets, Cambodia is an investor friendly market where companies operating in Cambodia can be 100% foreign-owned. This, coupled with the low cost of labour and comparatively low rental rates, makes it an attractive destination for companies to set up operation. Foreign investors in CambodiaChina, Korea and Japan were ranked as the top three highest investors in the construction industry in Cambodia.Approximately half of the occupiers of purpose built offices are international banks, insurance and investment firms, as well as logistics, construction and engineering companies, which usually take up larger office spaces.Other typical occupiers are law and accounting firms, manufacturing companies, real estate firms, energy providers and telecom groups, and firms providing a range of business consultancy services.Most foreign-owned companies are from China, Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, Korea and Singapore.Major developments from notable developers and firms: Hong Kong: Exchange Square by Hongkong Land, a 20-storey Grade A office building with retail podium located in Daun Penh, which will add 18,500 sq m of NLA to the current office stock. Construction for the first phase began at the end of 2013 and is expected to be ready for occupation by 2017. The property has been available for pre-leasing since launching in Feb 2015.Malaysia: Maybank Group’s headquarters on Norodom Boulevard is set to be completed this year, adding a total of 4,602 sq m NLA to the existing stock. Maybank building will be partly occupied by the bank. Lion Group’s proposed mixed-use development, located across from the Phnom Penh international airport, has started construction and is slated for completion by 2017. The development will include a 7-storey mall that will add 45,500 sq m of NLA to the retail stock.Japan: Aeon has maintained a high occupancy at 95%, which is a positive sign for the retail market. Domino’s Pizza, Lotteria & Pepper Lunch, are among some of the larger international F&B newcomers that can be found in Aeon Mall, while fashion retailers such as Giordano, Penshoppe and Levis have also opened their first outlets on the mall’s ground level. Some high end retail outlets were initially part of the tenant mix but were forced to vacate recently due to poor sales and high rental prices. Retailers such as L’Occitane, Clarins, TWG, Hugo Boss & Eric Kaiser occupy Vattanac’s retail podium, which is more than 50% occupied.Korea: Phnom Penh Tower, constructed by Hyundai Amco, continues to be one of the more popular office buildings with Japanese companies, including Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, JETRO, Fuji Electric, Tama Global Investments and Creed Group. Hyundai Amco is also the main contractor for the construction of ACLEDA’s headquarters along Monivong Boulevard.China: China continues to invest heavily in infrastructure with the Shanghai Construction Group building the fourth Cambodia-China Friendship Bridge in Takhmao, whilst Sinohydro Corp has established an office in Canadia Tower and is currently exploring the possibility of constructing a hydropower dam in Koh Kong Province.Singapore: The Peak is a new mixed-use development being undertaken by Oxley Worldbridge, a joint venture between Singapore’s Oxley Group and Cambodia’s Worldbridge, that will include a hotel component operated as a five-star Shangri-La hotel, part of the Kuoc Group of companies, whilst another Singaporean developer, TEHO International, will construct a similar mixed-use development with the hotel component being operated as a five star Okura Prestige hotel. Cambodia growth engineGDP continues to grow at an average of 7% year-on-year and is forecasted to do so up to 2018.Four main engines of growth – manufacturing, agriculture, tourism and construction continue to drive the Cambodian economy, with the construction industry’s contribution growing alongside the rapidly developing real estate industry.ASEAN Economic Community(AEC) integration is expected to increase employment and volume of skilled workers, which will positively impact the commercial sector as more companies seek to take advantage of investment opportunities.Although anticipated to increase in 2H15, inflation is expected to remain manageable over the short to medium-term.The stable political environment in Cambodia has led to renewed investor confidence with increasing inflows of FDI.Office Sector The majority of existing office supply is dominated by Grade C stock, with 92% of them situated in central locations within Phnom Penh.The office stock will see an increase of 64% by 2018, with 60% of the incoming supply classified as Grade A and 40% classified as Grade B.Hongkong Land, ACLEDA and the Overseas Cambodia Investment Corporation will add a combined total net lettable area (NLA) of 112,180 sq m, or approximately 72% of the total incoming supply.Prime rental prices remained stable showing only a slight increase of 2% between 2H 2014 and 1H 2015, with the city-wide average rental recorded at USD 14 per sq m per month across all office grades.Occupancies for prime office space remained subdued at 44%, showing a 3% decrease in vacancy between 2H 2014 and 1H 2015.Retail Sector Current per capita retail space of 0.0087 sq m points to an undersupply in Cambodia especially when compared to its regional neighbours, Thailand and the Philippines.Average vacancy across all retail grades is 14%.A 122% increase in current NLA is expected by 2019.Future supply will consist of 88% prime space and 12% secondary space, with 60% located in central areas.With the impending future supply, the current undersupply will be catered for, with concerns of a possible oversupply by 2018.

Obviously the construction industry is booming alongside the recent explosion of high rise apartment and condominium projects taking place across Cambodia. However, this recent surge in development is also benefiting some lesser known industries, those of which are working toward improving the end quality of these development projects for both buyers and sellers.Some products proving hugely popular to the latest new developments in Cambodia are onsite gyms, health and fitness amenities. A rise in these additional features in new developments nationwide reflects international consumer trends appearing in the Kingdom as they never have before. Speaking with Simon Rapoport, Country Manager of Seara, official importer of Life Fitness exercise equipment in Cambodia and full package gym design and installation professionals, we discover what is fueling this surge in demand for high end amenities within new development projects. “When we install the gym, we add value to the project immediately,” remarks Rapoport, “and we help to maintain trust between the developer and prospective real estate buyers.” As many new developments are being presold before their construction in Cambodia, the end buyer is instilling a lot of trust in the developer to provide all features promised when the apartment, condo or serviced unit finally becomes available for new tenants.  Tales of missing features when the development is finally ready for occupancy are rife throughout the industry – for instance, gym space provided as according to the presale project specifications, but no equipment to be seen at the final launch, or much cheaper branded equipment than first promised; previously touted roof top pools that are cut in final budget considerations; and the arrival of new management of serviced condos and apartments that don’t hesitate to ignore earlier promises of products and services once the project welcomes its new tenants. For this reason, says Rapoport, “the developers we work with increasingly want to see the gym constructed and fitted as soon as possible.” The reason being, “if the potential buyer comes to view the project mid construction, and the gym on the fifth floor has already been fully fitted with international standard equipment, even while the rest of the building remains a work in progress, the buyer has already witnessed the developer fulfilling promises within the presale specs.” Building a gym or sports facility first is an exercise in building one’s credibility in the market: “They’re saying, ‘Count on us – We said we will provide a world class gym, and look, here it is!’” remarks Rapoport. New developers are promising leading brands, such as the Life Fitness equipment that Seara Sports fit and maintain, and they want to prove this to new unit buyers who are voting with their feet across Phnom Penh. Sharon Liew, from Huttons CPL, notes that this credibility gap is caused by a lack of enforcement in the advertising legislation for false advertising surrounding the Cambodian property market: "In Cambodia, real estate marketers are free to misrepresent the development to purchasers without any legal repercussions. In Singapore and Malaysia though, for example, showroom units used to sell the development before it is completed must be exactly the same specifications and dimensions as the completed unit. If not, the buyer has a legal right to challenge the agreement and potentially void their purchase agreement." In the meantime, Sharon recommends buying from developers who include building and unit specifications as well as facilities included in the Sales and Purchase Agreement. Demand for health and fitness products within new developments also marks a clear conceptual desire for many home and investment buyers looking to move to modern home complexes throughout Cambodia. “Those who are buying units in these new developments are not simply looking to buy a home,” believes Rapoport, “they are buying a lifestyle.” “It’s all about health,” says Rapoport, and this concept is becoming cemented in the mindsets of consumers throughout Asia, and increasingly Cambodia. When new buyers see an apartment block that offers an onsite health and fitness center, they see the chance to purchase a better life – one in which daily fitness is guaranteed and doesn’t require navigating the congested inner-city.” For the same reason, new project buyers also desire other inclusive amenities such as cafes, restaurants, communal areas, sports facilities and onsite events. Sam Kiers, from Elevated Realty, notes that many development administrations only allow access to gym and health facilities to fulltime residents of that particular property.  However, a few condominium developments are less strict on these policies and open onsite gyms to family, friends and acquaintances of their occupants. Kiers supports this later trend as it represents an ongoing tool for developers and agents to introduce potential clientele to the building in a positive light.  The traffic an open-gym policy generally includes the type of potential clientele that the developer is seeking – relatively affluent, mobile and clearly interested in the fitness facilities the development has to offer. “Developing sustained interest in any new development is becoming more and more important with the condominium influx,” notes Kiers. And it is not just international developers seeking these features, says Rapoport, who has witnessed a surge in local developers wishing to integrate gyms, sports grounds, pools, and steam and sauna facilities within their new projects. Throughout the market, quality is in demand. And quality does not limit itself to the building alone, suggests Rapoport – “It is intimately connected with the quality of life a new development can conceptually represent.”
