DNO - A fresh wave of foreign investment in finance, semiconductors and advanced technologies is creating new demand for quality housing in Da Nang, as global firms and skilled professionals increasingly make the city their long-term base.
Since becoming operational earlier this year, the Vietnam International Financial Center in Da Nang has emerged as a key pillar in the city’s growth strategy.
Spanning more than 300 hectares and enjoying convenient access to the international airport, seaport and major transport corridors, the center is being developed around three strategic sectors: finance, blockchain and semiconductors.
As recently reported by Vietnamese media, Da Nang has been on track to build a comprehensive investment ecosystem. By May, the city had signed 20 memoranda of understanding with international organisations, businesses and investors, while granting membership certificates to the first 12 participants in the financial center ecosystem.
In the first four months of the year, registered FDI reached nearly US$238 million, almost double the level recorded a year earlier. April alone accounted for more than US$200 million in newly registered capital.
More importantly, the composition of investment is evolving. New projects increased by nearly 47%, while registered capital expanded by over 83%, reflecting stronger confidence and a growing focus on long-term opportunities.
At the same time, global technology companies are strengthening their presence in Da Nang. Semiconductor and chip-design firms such as Synopsys and Marvell have already established operations in the city, while Nvidia, Qualcomm and Intel are exploring opportunities for investment and talent development.
In parallel with its investment promotion efforts, Da Nang is accelerating the development of a skilled workforce to meet the needs of emerging high-tech sectors.
Under Da Nang’s semiconductor and artificial intelligence development plan for 2026-2030, the city aims to train and attract at least 8,000 highly skilled workers, including 5,000 semiconductor specialists and 3,000 AI professionals.
The influx of investment is accompanied by a growing population of engineers, technology experts and highly qualified professionals, creating a new source of demand for residential properties.
Unlike short-term investors, this group tends to prioritize living quality, connectivity to workplaces, project management standards and legal transparency.
Market observers say preferences are increasingly shifting toward integrated developments that combine residential, working and leisure spaces within a single environment.
According to DKRA Consulting, Da Nang’s apartment supply remains concentrated in the mid-end and high-end segments. Primary prices in the first quarter rose between 5% and 10% year-on-year, with new projects focusing on strategic locations and comprehensive amenities.
Demand is becoming more sophisticated as buyers seek homes that support modern lifestyles rather than simply providing accommodation. Projects capable of integrating workspaces, recreational facilities and daily conveniences are attracting increasing attention.
In reality, developers are introducing mixed-use models designed for long-term residents. M Riverside Da Nang, located along the September 2 - Binh Hien - Dao Tan corridor near the Han River, is among the projects embracing the “Work-Live-Resort” concept.
The 25-story development, comprising 321 apartments, targets professionals working in finance, technology and other knowledge-intensive industries.
The “Work-Live-Resort” model has been designed to cater to professionals working in finance, technology and other high-value service sectors.
Flexible workspaces, efficient apartment layouts and a full range of on-site amenities have been carefully integrated to support residents’ daily lifestyles and evolving work patterns.
As investment inflows continue to grow and more international experts and highly skilled workers settle in the city, demand for mid- and high-end housing is expected to strengthen further.
Market observers view this emerging residential base as one of the key drivers shaping the next phase of Da Nang’s property market.
