These days, real estate prices in many provinces are increasing “rapidly”, creating a “fever” of land, especially in rural areas. Provinces and cities such as Hanoi, Thanh Hoa, Quang Ninh, Bac Ninh … land prices in suburban areas have doubled or even tripled in just a few months. In many places, people quit production and business to carry money to trade land.

The land fever not only occurs in the planned areas but also occurs in locations that are not under the planning such as: forest land, field land, garden … “Storks” appear everywhere in the area. These areas create false excitement, pushing prices up every hour to entice investors in. For example, outside of Hanoi, there are areas that increase the price from 5 million / m2 to 7 million / m2 in just one day….

In general across the country, the average land price increases 10% -15% after 1 month. With such attractive profits, many people quit their businesses, their production, and withdraw money from banks to invest in land.

Everywhere, everywhere, people talked about land prices. This story appears in the whole meal, the people’s sleep makes life turn upside down, work stops.

According to many opinions, the low interest rate of credit plus the idle money of the people makes a large capital pouring into real estate, creating a virtual “fever” in the suburban areas.

This is not the first time the appearance of “fever” of soil. So the question is where is the managerial responsibility of the authorities, especially the responsibility of the local government?

The local government – where the land “fever” occurs, cannot ignore this situation because it will make a big obstacle to calling for and attracting formal investment. In fact, the increase in land prices will lead to a series of other costs increasing, especially the cost of compensation for site clearance … Thus, it will affect economic development in localities with ” fever “soil. Consequences of the land price increase will also reduce investment resources for production development in many other sectors and fields of the country.

Therefore, the local government needs to promote propaganda and explain to the people the serious consequences of the land “fever”, which will certainly limit a lot of speculation.

Commenting on this issue, Professor Dang Hung Vo – former Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Environment, said that the “fever” situation of land everywhere over time is partly due to the impact of the 2013 Land Law. regulations on sub-plots for sale are expanded.

According to him, countries around the world use the form of subdivision for sale only to settle urban housing, not in commerce because in principle, the real estate market must exploit the value of the investment. land, not waiting for land price increases to make a profit as a form of “eating away”.

Professor Dang Hung Vo pointed out, from 2016 to 2020, the Government has instructed four times to amend the Land Law, however, up to now the Land Law has not been revised. In particular, the land is clogged with old regulations. For example, current agricultural land has not yet implemented effective accumulation and concentration. Along with that is the land transfer in the countryside almost not according to the procedure but mainly by handwriting. Then the problem of housing development nowadays also has many bottlenecks … Especially the problem of foreigners buying underground land in Vietnam … It is these shortcomings that have a direct impact on the real estate market, making distorting and manipulating the market, creating opportunities for those who have the opportunity to make money.

Therefore, Professor Dang Hung Vo emphasized that the revision of the Land Law is extremely necessary.

Along with that, according to experts’ view, in the context that lending interest rates are pouring heavily on real estate, the State Bank needs to closely monitor and supervise lending activities to prevent loans to production and business, but actually poured into real estate.
