October 19 & 20, 2018, at the NagaWorld Hotel, Phnom Penh.Realestate.com.kh EXPO 2018, Cambodia’s #1 Property Expo. Returning this October 19-20thAfter the huge success at the inaugural Cambodia Real Estate Shows in 2017, the much anticipated show known now as the Realestate.com.kh EXPO 2018 is returning this October 19th 20th to NagaWorld Hotel, Phnom Penh, to provide a forum for local and international home buyers and property investors to visit the leading developments in the region at one convenient event.The last expo in October 2017 brought together more than 4,000 attendees and generated over $20 million in property sales within the two days. The proven success created strong demand from agencies, developers and property seekers for the event return for 2018.Extensive marketing campaigns prior to the event and of course the Expo itself are not only a major vehicles in promoting Cambodia as a country but also as one of the best investment destinations globally. MR Tom O’Sullivan, CEO of Realestate.com.kh said that “ Over 4000 people had already  registered to attend this years expo and we are forecasting to attract over 6,000 home buyers and property investors at least.”Cambodia is increasingly becoming the focus of international property investors from across the ASEAN region, China and the world. Compared to neighboring countries in the region, Cambodia is offering freehold foreign ownership and strong investment growth prospects.While those living in Cambodia are well aware of the fast changes happening in regards to real estate, construction and infrastructural development in major cities such as Phnom Penh, Sihanoukville and Siem Reap - many internationals have little understanding of the quality of real estate now available in the Kingdom and the investment potential for those purchasing property here. Thus, in order to accommodate this growing appetite for Cambodia property, Realestate.com.kh has organized the most focused real estate exhibition event that the country has ever seen.With over 30 real estate developments exhibiting over the two days “The Realestate.com.kh EXPO” Sponsored by Ezecom, Propease, Bayon Airlines & CDF will demonstrate the finest property investment opportunities currently on offer across the nation. The audience will include both international investors and local property buyers.O’Sullivan also mentioned “The intention of the Realestate.com.kh EXPO, October 19 & 20 is to promote Cambodia and the Cambodia real estate industry both locally and internationally. We are bringing together a collection of the nation’s finest new projects, as well as other businesses that influence and play a role in the market.”“During the EXPO, attendees will also be able to watch various educational seminars which will assist property buyers and investors understanding the market, the legal obligations of property ownership, and to help them to make educated decisions when purchasing real estate in Cambodia,” said O’Sullivan.The free seminars will be available in three languages over the two days of the event, Khmer, English and Chinese, with translation headsets available to guests. Topics will include property investment advice, ownership law, tax considerations, infrastructure developments, notably the One Belt One Road initiative, market comparisons and Cambodia’s economic growth prospects. Panel discussions and question, answer sessions with the audience will also be part of the seminar schedule.“Furthermore,” continues O’Sullivan, “a real estate show closes the gap between the investor and the opportunity. When investors from throughout the region and world arrive in Phnom Penh for our real estate show, they will feel, smell and touch Cambodia; and they will see the drastic changes happening here in terms of construction and real estate development. They will also understand the infrastructural improvements that are transforming the country into an economic hub. This exposure to Cambodia will give them confidence to invest in property here.”O’Sullivan concludes, “People buy property in countries they love - and at realestate.com.kh, we are confident international visitors to our real estate show will soon fall in love with Cambodia.”“We are excited to be bringing the best of the best from the last show as well as some new flavors and opportunities for the 2018 edition including more borey and affordable condos as well as more international developers from both Cyprus & Australia”Exhibitors include some of the biggest names in the industry including Creed Group, Orkide Villa, Prince Real Estate Group (Cambodia) Group, The Parkway, Aristo Developers, One Park, Phnom Penh Harbour, Le Bassac, North Park Condominium, Residences Bel Air, Pafilia, Position Property, NC Maxworld, SEAPS, DFDL, Seara (Sports Engineering and Recreation Asia Cambodia), OneDa, The Room Design Studio, Cloud Coast, Naki Group, AVIC INTL, New Nordic Group, Morgan Tower, Thaiyue investment and PropEase.Local and international media partners for the event include CTN, MYTV,  Thmey Thmey, Khmer Times, Fresh News, Property Asia, BizKhmer, KHB Media, EuroCham Cambodia, Understand Business, The Cambodia China Times, Forward Asia, Nice TV, Cambodia Sin Chew Daily, Gold Zone Media, Sing Meng Telemedia, GrepTech, Jian Hua Daily, B2B Cambodia, Angkor Today, and Khmerload.Realestate.com.kh would again like to thank sponsors of the event including PropEase, Bayon Airlines, Lumiere Hotel, and CDF.The thousands of expected attendees will include international property investors, local buyers, architects, contractors, builders, designers, lawyers, real estate agents, CEOs and top management of major property developers and associated companies.Venue and Schedule:2nd floor grand ballroom of the NagaWorld Hotel and Entertainment Complex, Phnom Penh.Save the date!Save the date on your calendar!

Save for a short coastline facing the Gulf of Thailand in the southwest, Cambodia is mostly a landlocked country. But apparently, this limitation is not deterring the Kingdom, with help from its foreign friends, from going into a port building, expansion, and improvement frenzy on its few outlets to the sea in a bid to improve economic, trade and tourism prospects.In the last few months, several major port construction, expansion, and improvement projects were either completed, underway, or are being planned in Sihanoukville, Kampot, and Koh Kong, all in Cambodia’s southwest. In addition to the seaports, Cambodia, which is traversed by the mighty Mekong River and its tributaries, has a few river ports in the provinces of Phnom Penh, Takeo, and Kampong Cham.The most significant port project in the Kingdom is major improvements to the State-owned Sihanoukville Autonomous Port (PAS). PAS stretches over 125 hectares of land in Preah Sihanouk province.Last June 2018, PAS, which is Cambodia’s sole deepwater seaport and major trade gateway to the outside world, launched a $74 million multi-purpose terminal. The Japan-funded port improvement project provides an addition 330 meters for ship docking.This allows the port to accommodate larger ship with heavy loads. The new terminal is able to load shipments between 40,000-50,000 tonnes, which is double the capacity of existing terminals at the PAS.Minister of Transport Sun Chanthol said the new terminal will make PAS play a more significant role in speeding up the delivery of goods as well as boost competitiveness between Cambodia and neighboring countries. It was noted that the terminal will facilitate 70 percent of exports and imports coming through Cambodia.Minister Sun said that in addition to the new terminal, plans are afoot to turn PAS into an intermediate-scale standard port in the next few years.The planned expansion will entail the construction of another container terminal, which will enable the port to handle more than 1 million TEUs (twenty-foot equivalent units). The expansion will also enable the Sihanoukville port to receive ships of more than 60,000 tonnes.The proposed new container terminal will have a depth of 14.5 meters and a length of 350 meters. Funding is courtesy of a $209 million soft loan from the Japan Government. Construction of the new terminal will commence next year and targeted to be completed by 2023.Meanwhile, in the province of Kampot, which is more well-known for growing the world’s best pepper, Kampot Pepper, a new 4-hectare seaport will also rise soon. Kampot, which also shares a border with Vietnam, has a coastline of some 45 km on the Gulf of Thailand.The construction of the much-awaited seaport in Kampot province began early last month. Part-funded with a loan from the Asian Development Bank (ADB), the planned port is situated in Kampot’s Tek Chhou district.The massive project is expected to help boost the local tourism and property sectors, as well the national economy in general.Minister of Tourism Thong Khon noted that with their close proximity to Vietnam and Thailand and their important role in tourism development, the Cambodian Government has been focusing on developing these waterways.Maritime traffic with Vietnam and Cambodia is expected to rise once the project goes into operation. The ADB expects the port to serve 360,000 international and domestic tourists a year in its first year and 442,000 by 2022.Echoing Mr Thong, Kampot Governor Cheav Tay, said a new seaport in Kampot will benefit the local infrastructure and the country’s economy. Support infrastructure like roads and bridges are likely to be built close by to support the growing economy and tourism industry.For Soy Sinol, Director, Kampot Tourism Department, there is the exciting prospect of the seaport attracting real estate developers. “These kind of projects generally attract them,” he said, while also noting that real estate values in the area will rise once the project is complete.The Kampot port project is slated for completion in 2019.In Koh Kong province, China’s Tianjin Union Development Group (UDG) is developing 45,000 hectares of land, including building a port and an airport, as part of its $3.8 billion Dara Sakor Beachside Resort project. Few details regarding the port project have been released so far.In early 2009, there were also plans to build a $20-million tourist port in the tiny southwestern province of Kep. While the Kep port project, due to various reasons, did not push through, there are some who believe it will be revived in the next few years.  Cambodia’s focus on infrastructure development, including port construction and expansion, is expected to help the Kingdom’s economy, one of the fastest-growing in Asia, to keep humming in the foreseeable future.Looking for real estate for rent in Sihanoukville  or real estate for sale in Sihanoukville?Want to learn more about Sihanoukville?

With Cambodia’s economy showing no signs of slowing down and a building boom in full swing, local and international real estate developers are flocking to Cambodia in record numbers.In Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and other urban areas developers are buying up or leasing land to build an array of residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments. In Phnom Penh, land along the major thoroughfares are particularly hot items. Areas along Monivong, Norodom, Russian, and Mao Tse Tung Boulevards are slowly being saturated with high-rises, boreys, etc. There is construction work going on in many stretches going in and out of the city.Lately, one particular stretch is rising above the rest in terms of attractiveness and drawing power: land along Hun Sen Boulevard.Intended to reduce traffic congestion in the city’s south, the 60-meter wide and nearly 10 kilometers long Hun Sen Blvd. is Phnom Penh’s largest and one of its most important road connections. It connects Street 271 in the north with National Road (NR) 2 in the south. Hun Sen Blvd. is an integral part of Phnom Penh’s 2035 Master Plan, which aims to improve resident’s living conditions as the capital continues to expand and develop.Ken Lo, Chairman and CEO of Century 21 Imperial Realty, said several major development projects have been built or are under construction in the area.Leading these is the 2,600 hectares ING City, the largest development in Cambodia. Also one of the largest in Southeast Asia, ING City, whose development is ongoing, comprises of residential, commercial, and retail facilities.Major borey (gated community) projects like Borey Chip Mong, Borey Piphup Thmey, and Borey Peng Hout are also located along Hun Sen Blvd.Mr Lo said that Chinese investors are also buying huge plots of land for the construction of residential and commercial centers.  The 7.6-hectare Urban Village, 2.1-hectare Lingnan Garden, and  R&F City are major mixed-use projects being developed by leading Chinese property developers or their local affiliates on prime lot along the Boulevard.There are also reports that Japanese developers are planning to build the third Aeon Shopping Mall in the same locality.Jessie Mao, Planning Executive of R&F City, said their studies found that the southern part of Phnom Penh, where a big part of Hun Sen Blvd. runs through, is the most ideal location for property development.“While there have been an increase, land there still costs less compared to those found in parts of the city. There is a big potential for more development there. Southern Phnom Penh will definitely become the new city center,” she stressed, noting that at this time space is getting smaller and land is getting more expensive in central Phnom Penh.Hun Sen Blvd. stretches across three sangkats: Chak Angre Leu and Chak Angre Krom in Khan Meanchey and Cheung Ek in Khan Dankao. The 2018 (1st half) Phnom Penh land price report of Key Real Estate, shows that the average prices of commercial land in Chak Angre Leu and Chak Angre Krom are $1,650/sqm and $1,250/sqm, respectively, while in Sangkat Cheung Ek commercial land is priced at $600/sqm on average.Sorn Seap, Founder and CEO of Key Real Estate, said Hun Sen Blvd. greatly contributes to the area’s real estate growth. He said the area’s popularity and development will increase if major infrastructure projects will push through, referring to the proposed Ring Road and new international airport in Kandal Province, which is only a few kilometers away from the Boulevard.The entry and interest of more developers have led to higher land prices in the area, a development not lost on Mr Lo. “Land is more expensive compared before.”The price of land in-between Road 271 and Borey Peng Hout increased to $2,000/sqm from last year’s $1,000-$1,200/sqm. Between National Road (NR) 2 and Borey Peng Hout the price of land is now $800-$1,500/sqm, up from $400-$1,200 recorded in the end of last year.Looking for real estate for rent in Meanchey​ and looking for real estate for sale in Meanchey?

The Daun Penh, 7 Makara, and Chamkarmon Districts, all in central Phnom Penh, have the most expensive land in Cambodia’s capital city.This was according to a recently-released report of Key Real Estate. The Report covered land prices across Phnom Penh in the first half of 2018.The Report noted that Daun Penh, a commercial hub, has the most expensive lot. Residential plots are selling at $3,500/sqm on average. For commercial land, the average price is $6,100/sqm.Within Daun Penh, the Sangkats of Phsar Thmey 1,2, &3 has the most expensive commercial land, selling at $9,000 per sqm on average. For residential land, Sangkat Phsar Chas registered the highest price at more than $4,000/sqm.Sorn Seap, Founder and CEO of Key Real Estate, explained that the main reasons for this are the mature real estate market and high land prices registered in each and every Sangkat in the District.“It is the oldest developed area and it hosts three markets,” he stressed, referring Phsar Chas, Phsar Kandal, and Phsar Thmey. “Popular tourist destinations like Royal Palace and Riverside area also in the area.”7 Makara, another commercial center, has the second most expensive land in Phnom Penh. Residential plots in the area are selling at $3,300/sqm, while commercial land at $5,400/sqm.Within 7 Makara, Sangkat Orussey 1,2,3 & 4 have the most expensive commercial land ($6,000/sqm), while Sangkat Boeung Prolit have the most expensive residential land priced close to $4,000/sqm on average.Chamkarmon is third in rank. Average price of residential and commercial land in the District are $3,000/sqm and $5,100/sqm, respectively.The cheapest land in Phnom Penh can be found in the suburbs. Prek Pnov District to the north has the cheapest land available, with residential land, on average, selling for $100/sqm and commercial land $340/sqm.Dangkao District to the south, meanwhile, registered $100/sqm average selling price for residential lot and $280/sqm for commercial land.On average, land prices in central Phnom Penh largely remained unchanged compared to the same period last year. This was in contrast to land prices in the suburbs of the capital, which are growing fast.According to the Report, Toul Kork, Sen Sok, and Prek Pnov Districts, registered the highest land prices increase. Land prices in those areas increased by 6.3%, 6.7%, and 7.1%, respectively, compared to the same period last year.Mr Seap said that Prek Pnov became an investment hotspot in the last few years. “Many investors and businesses have begun eyeing this location.” Mr Seap said this led to abrupt increase of land prices in the area.Compared to other urban areas in Southeast Asia, Phnom Penh is among the places with the cheapest land, with residential and commercial lots, on average, selling $1,300/sqm and $2,400/sqm, respectively.Looking for real estate for rent in Cambodia and looking for real estate for sale in Cambodia?

Cambodia’s northwestern border town of Poipet is fast becoming a rival to Sihanoukville in terms of real estate development.Poipet, which borders Thailand and hosts an important border crossing between the two neighboring countries, is in the middle of a building boom.Casinos, hotels, commercial buildings, and residential developments are going up in different parts of the town, fueled by massive foreign investments and an economic boom. Property values have gone up in many parts of Poipet as a result.A part of Banteay Meanchey Province and occupying 2,620,000 square meters, Poipet is divided into three sangkats, namely: Poipet, Phsar Kandal and Nimeth. The town is home to more than 140,000 residents, both Cambodians and foreigners.Hor Kunthea (Roy), CEO/Chief Executive Officer of Sokha Residences Group, said he was not surprised by the development, noting that the town’s property sector has shown great potential for rapid growth in the last six months.He identified Sangkat Poipet as the area with the best potential. “The other two sangkats also offer good investment opportunities and property values there are also rising,” Mr Roy stressed.According to him, many small and large scale developments have entered or are eyeing to enter into the Poipet property market. “Many investors from the outside are eyeing Poipet as a great investment destination,” he said, noting that this has contributed to the continuing increase of property values and prices.In Poipet, according to Vtrust Appraisal’s 2017 Housing market and Outlook Report, 16 projects were completed last year, releasing 1,694 units into the market. Also, 909 units reached the market in the first half of 2018.Poipet Governor San Sean Ho said there is no better time to develop real estate in the town. We, in the Government, encourages all investors to put their money into various real estate like hotels, guesthouses, residential houses, restaurants, and other facilities for tourists.In Poipet, according to him, there are many existing, ongoing, and projects that are in the pipeline or drawing board. The town is currently hosting nearly 30 casinos, 10 boreys (gated residential community) projects and a number of factories in the Special Economic Zone that produce electronic, clothing, and other products. There are also at least 50 companies subdividing residential plots for resale.Poipet’s first condominium project is now underway. Sokha Residences Group, which will occupy almost four hectares of land, is a combination of condo and boreys. Sokha Residences will have a 21-story building of 543 units with Super Store, Commercial and Office Space, Sports Club, Swimming Pool, Sky Bar, Penthouses, and 287 borey units.Condo units are priced from $27,864 to $1,270,000, while borey units have the selling price of between $30,000 and $50,000 per unit. Sokha Residence is located in the Kilo Lekh Boun, Sangkat Phsar Kandal, Poipet.The Government is also eyeing to develop Poipet’s tourism potential. Mr San said they are planning to develop 500 hectares of land into a premier tourism destination complete with a golf course, artificial river, giant garden, and a floating market. He said that once the project will be built, they are expecting thousands more of tourists will visit Poipet.The above factors, together with the plan of the Cambodian Government to open more border crossings to Thailand, Chinese-funded road along the Thailand-Cambodia border, and the re-opening of the rail link between Poipet and Phnom Penh bode well for further development of the town into an important commercial and industrial hub.“In our Economic Development Plan, we mainly focus on real estate and infrastructure development,” Mr San stressed.He said one of their priorities is to build excellent concrete roads connecting different parts of Poipet.Better roads are contributing to the increase of real estate prices in and around the town. Mr Roy noted that land along National Road (NR) 5 and adjacent to the Poipet roundabout currently fetches between $800 and $1,000 per sqm.In the areas near the border where the casinos are located, land the previously sells between $300 and $500 are now priced from $1,300 to $1,500 per sqm.The influx of Chinese is also another major factor that drove up property values in Poipet. The Chinese were attracted by the town’s investment potential and the availability of affordable land. There are currently more than 10,000 Chinese investors and workers in Poipet and it is expected to have more than 20,000 in 2019.According to Mr San, most of the big hotels in Poipet are being rented by the Chinese. Both Mr San and Mr Roy agreed that the Chinese played a big part in the growth of the real estate industry, and also of property values, in Poipet.Mr Roy said the presence of the Chinese created more demand and drastically increased rents. According to him, a flathouse on some main road that could be rented for as low as between $150 to $200 a month are now available for rent between $600 and $800 per month. A flat along the concrete road, which previously can be rented for less than $150 a month, is now available for rent between $350 and $400.“Poipet’s property sector is growing similar to the one in Sihanoukville,” Mr Roy concludes.Search properties for sale in Poipet and current properties for rent in Poipet!

Phnom Penh’s iconic and important Riverside area will soon host a massive development that will change the face of the city and the Kingdom for the better.Phnom Penh Harbour, as the project is known, is a monumental undertaking stretching several kilometers from the Chroy Changvar Bridge to the Night Market, both of which are prominent spots in Riverside.Stretching several kilometers along the Tonle Sap, Mekong, and Bassac Rivers, the Riverside, which has long been an important trading and commercial area in Cambodia’s capital city, has become a popular attraction and hangout for both locals and foreigners of late, mainly drawn by an excellent array of restaurants, hotels, stores, cafes, bars, and entertainment centers.To be built on 11.8 hectares of land facing the Tonle Sap River, Phnom Penh Harbour will comprise of more than twenty buildings of various sizes and features. These will include multiple commercial spaces, condotels, 5-Star Hotels, Grade A office buildings, large shopping malls, duty-free shops, and market-leading serviced and high-end apartments.There would also be French-style commercial streets that will be similar to what people see in Paris and other major cities of France.The development will also include a jetty and 7,000 parking spaces for people wishing to visit restaurants, retail shops, hotels, etc. in the Riverside area.The buildings and facilities within Phnom Penh Harbour will be built to international standards and are being primed to become the gold standard for such developments, not only in Cambodia, but other parts of Southeast Asia, as well.Phnom Penh Harbour has invited comparisons to Singapore’s own Orchard Road, an iconic development that is both a major shopping belt and prime tourist attraction in the island state.Phnom Penh Harbour had its launching last month. It is being developed by Yuetai Cambodia, one of the country’s most successful and respected property developers. Yuetai Cambodia is the local subsidiary of Guangzhou based and Shanghai listed Guangzhou Yuetai Group.Yuetai Cambodia has several iconic projects under its belt since its entry into the Kingdom in 2011. These include The Garden, East One, East View, and East Commercial Center.Sam Yang, Yuetai Cambodia CEO, said their aim is to make Phnom Penh Harbour unique and stand out among the rest. He said the ultimate goal is to make it a city symbol that will bring what is not known of Phnom Penh or Cambodia to the world.“We want others to know Angkor culture and art through Yuetai. That’s the reason who we put all these elements- cultural, touristic, artistic, and historical elements- together in the project. Instead of making it into a purely commercial space, we actually want to make it one of the best tourist attractions in Cambodia, and even in Asian countries,” he said.Phnom Penh Harbour will be built in four phases and is targeted to be completed in 7 years. The first phase will include the building of the 5-Star White Swan Hotel, which will join the long line of iconic hotels in the country.With Phnom Penh Harbour’s imminent appearance, the Cambodian Government is preparing measures to ensure the smooth flow of traffic in the area. To ease the expected traffic congestion, Sisowath Quay, the road that runs parallel with the Tonle Sap River, will be widened to four lanes.Phnom Penh Harbour is currently in the pre-sales stage.Get more information about Phnom Penh Harbour and learn more about Cambodia’s newest developments by visiting Realestate.com.kh!

Phnom Penh, Cambodia’s capital city, is seeing a rapid population growth with many people from the provinces coming to live in the city.These people, most of whom belong to the middle to lower class, mainly come to Phnom Penh in search of economic and educational opportunities.According to the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction (MLMUPC), Phnom Penh’s population is expected to increase to between 4 and 7 million by 2030. Other estimates put Phnom Penh’s population at 7.9 million by the same period.To meet the demands of a booming population, Minister of Land Management Chea Sophara said Cambodia needs to build 1 million more homes by 2030, not to mention a cascade of low-cost rental houses, apartments, etc.Pich Sovann, Director of Phnom Penh Daily Property, said Phnom Penh’s huge population of migrant workers has created a big market for low-cost rentals. Many of these migrants are workers employed in factories, mostly garment factories, in the Phnom Penh area.A majority of the more than 1,700 factories operating in the Kingdom, which employ close to 1 million people, are located in Phnom Penh and its suburbs.Drab apartment blocks with scores of rooms for rent can be found around these industrial zones. These rentals are often barely furnished and only contain the most basic of amenities like electric fans to keep out the Phnom Penh heat. These are rented for less than US$100.“Because they are affordable they are popular with factory workers,” Mr Sovann pointed out.Factory workers earn between US$170 to US$300 a month and allocates US$50 US$80 for rent. It was noted that some of these people even share a single unit with some friends to further minimize the rental cost.Mr Sovann mentioned that most of these low-cost rentals are found in the Phnom Penh suburbs of Boeung Tumpun, Steung Meanchey, Por Sen Chey, and Chaom Chao. There is also a scattering a low-cost rentals that can be found close to the city center.Tang Hour, President of Amatak Property Service, noted that low-cost rentals in the outskirts and suburbs of Phnom Penh are also popular with students and staff of companies, restaurants, hotels, and other businesses that earn between US$200 to US$300 per month.Phnom Penh is home to most of Cambodia’s universities and other institutions of higher learning.Ms Tang took issue of the poor hygiene and security in areas where low-cost rentals are concentrated. “Some locations [outside the central city] need to improve hygiene and security,” she stressed.Soth Virak, CEO of Huttons CPL, agrees that there is a big market for low-cost rentals in Cambodia’s capital city.Noting that a big chunk of the population falls in the under 39 category, he said that many of them go for cheap rental apartments and houses in the meantime while saving to buy their own houses later.“They opt to rent a cheap house before they can afford their own houses,” he said.Mr Virak added that there are people with bigger salaries who opt for low-cost housing. “There are some out there with average earnings of US$500 per month who rent rooms that fetch for US$100-US$200 per month,” he said.These houses, some of which are located in the center of Phnom Penh, are equipped with the most basic of amenities and are devoid of luxurious ones like refined furniture and furnishings.Cost of living in Cambodia is very low. The Kingdom has some of the cheapest housing rentals in the world.Realestate.com.kh has the most up to date information for buyers, sellers and property enthusiasts.Looking for Serviced Apartment for rent in Phnom Penh?

Ministry approves 1,643 construction projectsIn a sign that a roaring building boom will continue unabated for the foreseeable future, Cambodia’s construction and real estate sector, one of the four main pillars of the country’s economy, has drawn US$2.15 billion in investment projects in the first half of this year. The other three pillars are manufacturing (garment) sector, tourism, and agriculture.This was according to the latest report released by the Ministry of Land Management, Urban Planning, and Construction (MLMUPC). The MLMUPC is the government agency that is in-charge, regulates, and keeps track of real estate developments in Cambodia.The same Report noted that from January to June 2018 MLMUPC approved a total of 1,643 projects on 5.35 million square meters of land.With the current trend, it is very much conceivable that Cambodia will surpass the number of approved projects and total construction investment recorded last year. In 2017, a total of 3,052 projects on 10.74 million square meters of land worth a combined US$6.42 billion were given the go-signal by the MLMUPC.China is the leading real estate investor in Cambodia, followed by South Korea and Japan. Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, and Taiwan also have substantial real estate investments in Cambodia.Leading Chinese real estate developers and investors like Prince Real Estate Group, Guangzhou Yuetai Group,  Guangzhou R&F Properties, and Jiayuan International Group have major property projects underway or in the pipeline in different parts of the country.South Korean real estate investors in Cambodia include Booyoung Town, Yon Woo Co., Ltd., and World City Co. Leading the Japanese pack is CREED and Arakawa.Seng Loth, MLMUPC spokesman, told the media that residential, commercial, and mixed-use developments have sprung-up in different parts of the country in the last five years. He said these include high-rise buildings, new towns, and residential complexes.While Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, and Sihanoukville have the majority of real estate projects, major projects have long sprung-up in up-and-coming areas like Koh Kong, Kep, Battambang, and Poipet on that Thai border.From a few hundred five years ago, Mr Seng, noted that Cambodia now hosts nearly 1,000 high-rise buildings (5-54 floors) and 200 locations of new towns and residential complexes. Once-empty skylines have given way to high-rises as the building boom in Cambodia continues.Major real estate developments that were completed or underway in Phnom Penh include The Palm, Prince Central Plaza, The Parkway, CEO KT Pacific, and The Bridge. In Sihanoukville, the list includes D’Seaview, Blue Bay, and SeaGate Suite. From Siem, the most prominent includes Heritage Walk and a host of borey (gated community) projects.Mr Seng credited peace, relative political stability, business-friendly environment, and incentives as the main reasons why investors are not afraid to invest billions of dollars in Cambodia’s property sector. Others cite Cambodia’s rapid economic growth as another reason for investors’ confidence in Cambodia.Buoyed by agriculture, tourism, manufacturing (garment), and construction /real estate sector, Cambodia’s economy has grown by an astonishing average of 7 percent in the last five years, the biggest in Southeast Asia.Last year, the manufacturing (garment sector) accounted for the lion share of Cambodia’s US$22 billion gross domestic product (GDP) at 30 percent, followed by construction and real estate  29 percent, agriculture 25 percent and tourism 13 percent.Realestate.com.kh, Cambodia’s home of real estate, has the most up to date information for buyers, sellers and property enthusiasts!

One of these will be in Vietnam, while the rest will be in Cambodia.Dean Schreiber, Oakwood Worldwide (Asia-Pacific) Managing Director, noted the company’s strong performance in China and Japan and said they are thrilled to have a bigger presence in Southeast Asia.The company also sees the golden investment opportunity presented by both countries to those in the hospitality and housing business. The economies of Vietnam and Cambodia are among the fastest-growing in Southeast Asia in recent times. Mainly buoyed by massive investments in the property and manufacturing sectors, the Cambodian economy has grown by an average of nearly 7 percent in the last decade."Cambodia and Vietnam have been rapidly developing with healthy economic growth rates and this is an opportune time for Oakwood to establish itself as we foresee increasing demand for long-term accommodation,” Mr Schreiber stressed.The two properties that Oakwood plans to have in Cambodia are Oakwood Premier Phnom Penh and Oakwood Hotel & Residence Phnom Penh. Both are slated to open in the middle of 2019.The two developments will bring a combined 388 units (220 for Oakwood Premier Phnom Penh and 168 for Oakwood Hotel & Residence Phnom Penh) of hotel rooms, penthouses, studio-type, and one-, two-, and three-bedroom apartments to the market.

Siem Reap is one of the three major cities of Cambodia. The site of the world-renowned Angkor temples, Siem Reap is also the Kingdom’s leading tourist destination. As one of Cambodia’s leading economic centers, Siem Reap has drawn its fair share of local and foreign investors. Massive investments from abroad have fueled a roaring property boom.Siem Reap is in the middle of a building frenzy. In every corner of the city, many hotels, commercial buildings, and other real properties are going up. There are now more than 1,000 hotels, guesthouses, and other types of accommodations in the city compared to the more than 500 two years ago, leading to an oversupply in the market.In spite of that, the city’s rental market is taking a hit. Rental transactions have gone down in the last few years.According to Mario Tan, Sales and Marketing Director of Siem Reap-based Hunter Estate, the number of rental transactions this year declined by 40 percent, compared to two or three years ago.“Before, we receive around 100 inquiries every month. But it went down to only 50 to 60 inquiries these days,” he said.“And they are not even good quality inquiries,” Mr Tan stressed.He said the current and prevailing trend in the tourism sector is making that happen. China has supplanted Europe as the leading source of visitors to Siem Reap.China sent more than 1.2 million visitors to Cambodia last year. Most of these visitors also went to Siem Reap, where Cambodia’s top tourist destinations are located.“There has been an influx of Chinese arrivals, while the number of Europeans visiting the city has gone down,” Mr Tan pointed out.Mr Tan claimed that the market as a whole is not benefiting from increased Chinese arrivals. “They mostly come with a tour group, and often stays in a tour company’s pre-arranged accommodation,” he pointed out.“In this case, the small boutique hotels, guesthouse, and apartments, with 20 to 30 rooms, are few to zero customers,” he added.Sek Saran, Business Director at A1 Real Estate Cambodia, echoed Mr Tan’s observations that rental transactions in Siem Reap are taking a big hit and going down.“There is less Europeans- volunteers, NGO staff- that are renting apartments,” he pointed out.Most visitors that come to Siem Reap these days, according to him, are Chinese. “Most of the time, they just come here for a short period. Also, many of them only go to the big and more luxurious hotels,” he pointed out.For rent inquiries, he also noted that they have dropped down considerably in the last few years. “Rent inquiries dropped down more than 50 percent, compared to the previous years,” he said.With regards to rental price, there was also a significant decrease. According to Mr Saran, the rents went down by as much as 30 to 40 percent.He said that an apartment unit that used to fetch $500 a month in rent can now be rented between $250 and $300.For serviced apartments, the same trend is happening. Mr Tan said that a serviced apartment that previously fetches between $500 to $600 a month can now be rented between $300 and $350.“These have become much cheaper. But at least they’ve get some rents” he mused.The downward spiral, however, did not reach most commercial areas in the heart of Siem Reap.According to Mr Tan, a shophouse along the main road close to the Phsar Chas Market still fetches between $1,000 and $3,000 a month, which is an abnormally high price.The two gentlemen’s observations were mostly shared by Sok Sarath, Managing Director of SiemReapLandhouse.com. “There has been less inquiries this year. This led to some owners closing their hotels and restaurants,” he pointed out.But according to him, rental rates remain the same. He said that a 1 bedroom apartment fetches between $250 and $450/month. For shophouses and commercial buildings along National Road 6A, from Cambodian Cultural Village to Chong Keo Sue - $1,500 per flat rent/month; retail and banking space- $2,500 to $6,500/month,“On Sivatha Road, from Sokha Hotel to Phsar Chas Market and Charles De Gaulle Road, from Royal Residence to Borey Prem Prey - $1,400 to $1,700 rent per flat/month. $3,500 to $6,500 rent/month for commercial banking space and Hotels with around 20 bedrooms in any location- maximum $4,500 rental fee/month,” he added.Looking for real estate for rent in Siem Reap​ and looking for real estate for sale in Siem Reap?

There are hundreds of paint brands all over the world. There are thousands of different paint products for sale. One particular brand stands out over the rest: Jotun.Consistent, uncompromising quality is what makes Jotun stand out. For nearly a century, Jotun has built a reputation as one of the best global paint suppliers. Jotun has earned the trust of property developers, homeowners, architects, and others for bringing long-lasting quality and beauty to their designs.Jotun’s reputation for high standards and quality is such that it was chosen for world-famous structures and buildings such as Eiffel Tower in Paris, France; Burj Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai, United Arab Emirates (UAE); Marina Bay Sands in Singapore; Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia; and several others in Saudi Arabia and China. Being the world’s No.1 supplier for marine coatings, Jotun also provided the paint used for MS Oasis of the Seas, one of the largest cruise ships in the world.Established in Norway in 1926, Jotun grew fast and soon became a force in the global paint business. Currently, the company is present in more than 100 countries and on all continents.Jotun’s focus is on Decorative paints, Protective Coatings, Marine Coatings and Powder Coatings. To date, it has almost 40 production facilities around the world, including new ones in Oman, Philippines, and Myanmar.Jotun’s reputation for keeping buildings protected and beautiful for a long time followed it when the brand entered the Cambodian market in 2003.True to its core vision of “Jotun Protects Property”, Jotun did not disappoint when it was soon tapped to supply paints for iconic homes and buildings around Phnom Penh and other parts of Cambodia. Jotun supplied the paints used for Exchange Square, International School of Phnom Penh (ISPP), Phnom Penh International Airport, among many others. Jotun was also the paint of choice for many high-end villas and apartments.“In Cambodia, Jotun has served the market for more than 15 years, and trusted by many businesses and homeowners to protect and beautify prestigious residences, luxury hotels and key infrastructure such as oil storage tanks, bridges and power plants,” said Svein Johan Stub, General Manager of Jotun Cambodia.“Looking around Phnom Penh’s skyline today, you will find that the most reputable and valuable properties made the wise decision of choosing Jotun paints. With a dedicated team in the principal company, and a wide retail distribution network – we have managed to gain the trust of building professionals and homeowners who want their properties to stay protected and beautiful. Jotun paints are definitely not cheap by the liter, but we are cheaper in the long run,” he added.Jotun’s successful entry into the Cambodian market, pushed the company to set up a full subsidiary, Jotun (Cambodia) Ltd., in 2011. “This enabled us to better support our customers in Cambodia through professional specification advice, technical service and inspections,” Mr Stub said.For Cambodia, Jotun products are mainly imported from Thailand and Malaysia, with specialty products coming from Indonesia, United Arab Emirates and Norway. “These are tailor made by the company’s Research and Development lab in Southeast Asia to best perform in the tropical climate,” he said.One of these products is Jotashield Colour Extreme, a premium exterior paint designed to withstand the harshest tropical climates and considered one of the most durable paints around. For painting building interiors, Majestic Perfect Beauty & Care, which emits almost no odor and incorporates anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties, is the gold standard.  While Jotun products are more expensive than comparable items in the market, Mr Tan, Sales & Marketing Manager of Jotun Cambodia, stressed that their uncompromising stance on quality makes them cheaper in the long run.“In the long run, high quality paints end up “cheaper”. Firstly, the major cost component in a painting job is not the paint – it is the manpower, scaffolding and equipment. So over 12 years, for example, even if the paint material costs more, the total cost in the property life cycle is still less than using a low price paint but having to repaint 2-3 times in the same period to maintain the appearance,” he stressed.“Secondly, the owners suffer a loss of reputation, lower rental yields, lost income during shutdown, moving costs and the additional time and energy spent on sourcing and supervision. These are hidden costs incurred when a low quality paint starts looking bad and needs to be repainted. Perhaps most important of all, the peace of mind and satisfaction of a proud owner is priceless,” Mr Tan concluded.Realestate.com.kh, Cambodia’s home of real estate, has the most up to date information for buyers, sellers and property enthusiasts!
