Meanwhile, apartments with the same size had an average listed rental price of VND14.2 million ($614) per unit per month, up 5.4 percent over the same period of last year.
The fact that the asking price of apartments rose faster than the rents will reduce the attractiveness of buy-to-rent apartment investment.
