Financing a condo purchase in Cambodia

Cambodia offers  a variety of condo projects, from low cost condos to luxury condo developments. Naturally, these come with different price tags – so first step is to find a condo within your budget.

As a foreigner it can be difficult to obtain a typical mortgage from a bank in Cambodia. Fortunately many condo developers in Cambodia are now offering buyers owner-financing schemes, meaning you don’t need a large deposit up front for the purchase price – this makes it easier to buy your condo. Local Cambodian buyers have more choice of financing options through local banks.

Most projects are sold off-plan. This means you should be aware that the condo will not be finished for a year or more. By buying early on you can often get a good deal and your pick of the best units available. But do your due diligence to find a developer with a good track record as you do take the risk of construction delays or in rare cases the project not being completed.

Can foreigners buy a condo in Sihanoukville?

Yes. Overseas or expat buyers can own a strata-title condominium 100% and can later sell or transfer the title to another non-Cambodian. Almost all condo developments are registered as strata title since foreign buyers are a key sales market for the developers.

The condo market in Sihanoukville is still very active and there are many projects currently underway so you will have many projects to choose from when looking for a condo for sale in Sihanoukville.

Grow your money with real estate investments

What about buying a condo as an investment?

Purchasing a condo for investment purposes is a popular choice for condo buyers in Cambodia.

Investment condo projects are often built to a higher standard with better amenities, so they appreciate in value more quickly than other types of property – this means you can enjoy an increased income return on your investment over time.

When you buy a condo for investment, you will typically want to rent it out instead of live there. A real estate agency can help you with both the condo purchase and to find tenants. Many investment clients are based overseas and handle the process remotely with an trusted agency.

Renting your condo can provide you with an excellent way of offsetting the cost of loan payments, maintenance and other costs associated with condo ownership, while still enjoying the long term investment growth associated with property ownership.

Sihanoukville has seen significant condo developments in recent years as property investors realise the future potential of the city. Most developments are in good locations – a beachfront condo on one of Sihanoukville’s many idyllic sandy beaches is a highly desirable asset.
