Yangon Real Estate Review, H2 2018: Project Profiles, Market Review and Company Profiles - ResearchAndMarkets.com

DUBLIN--()--The "H2 2018 Yangon Real Estate Review" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

Fully updated as of January 2019, the report contains three main sections:

  1. Project profiles: More than 80 detailed profiles of in-planning or under-construction projects, with information on developer, status, location, funding, pricing, sales take-up, contractors and consultants, completion dates, background and more
  2. Market review: Analysis of the Yangon real estate sector, with key news across different segments, district-by-district mapping and profiling, legislation, analysis of the residential, commercial, retail and hospitality markets, supply forecasts, data and more
  3. Company profiles: More than 70 profiles of developers and contractors involved in Yangon real estate, as well as local authorities and state bodies relevant to the sector

Off-plan residential sales showed signs of greater activity in H2 2018 at most developments, and several new projects were launched. However, there are wide variations in take-up across projects Some particularly compelling offerings saw significant sales, such as Golden City Phase 1. Several developers halted or cancelled their projects, such as those behind Min Residences or the Illustra at Pho Sein, while progress remains slow at Union City or Pyay Tower and Residences. Developers continue to organise regular sales exhibitions and promotions, with discounted pricing.

While sales still remain modest, a significant residential pipeline is evident. In the Grade A market, we have now reduced our forecasts from H1 2018 and expect 7,500 new units to come online by the end of 2019, with nearly half scheduled for H1 2019, although further delays are likely.

No significant launches occurred in the retail or office market in H2 2018, with the exception of some small-scale stock in the Kantharyar Centre, which was completed in early 2019. We still expect more high-end office units to come online in the next few years, with further downward pressure on leasing rates, which appear to be relatively flat at present. Times City will represent a large addition to Grade A retail stock when it opens in H1 2019.

The Condominium Law finally came into force in H2 2018, after years of uncertainty and delay. Its impact is already being felt, with developers having started to register projects with local Condominium Management Committees. The new law may also open up a bigger spectrum of financing options for homebuyers. However other pieces of legislation, such as the Apartment Law and Real Estate Service Law, are still in a draft stage.

The hospitality sector is experiencing a challenging period, affected by low tourism arrivals and the wider business environment. Coupled with a number of high-end openings in H2 2018, this has created downward pressure on occupancy and sales. Nonetheless, interest in the hospitality market remains from overseas investors, with several new projects expected to bring a significant number of rooms onto the market in 2019 and 2020.

Overall, the Yangon real estate market appears to now be emerging from a challenging period, with progress on legislation and financing options likely to encourage more sales going forward, particularly in the mid-range market. We still expect to see more project cancellations and delays, however, as developers reassess the viability of projects that were originally planned several years ago and are no longer feasible in current conditions.

One indicator of the health of the market will be the interest shown by developers in the proposed Yangon New City, which is making concrete progress on planning as of early 2019.
