Boom Boom and Busts

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

As long as there is Chinese money to launder, people will continue to buy Phnom Penh real estate. I don't see a bubble bursting anytime soon. In the long run I see it becoming problematic if a large enough percentage of the condos citywide are empty because no one actually lives there. Are that many Chinese leaving en mass to get away from the pollution that they are going to occupy 40-60% of Phnom Penh housing in the future? I'm not so sure. Build it and they will come is definitely heading out into uncharted waters.

Today I noticed two large business on Mao Tse Toung had closed down and large '' for rent '' signs put up. With the ever increasing property valuations going up, greedy landlords are trying to extort even higher returns when leases are due for renewal, making it impossible for a business to run at a profit after all the expenses, rent being the major one.
One place I see everyday is just two doors from ''larry's ,, the Lyon D'Or, which has been vacant for over 7 months at $2500 per month. A wise business person would drop the rent for the first year or two at least get some return on the property. Losing 7 x $2500, takes a lot to recoup the losses
With many more smaller shophouse places also up for rent , I am sure we are starting to see the start of the downhill slide to a bust.,, 18 months from now will be an interesting time for Cambodia for those that hang around.
Cambodia,,,, Don't fall in love with her.
Like the spoilt child she is, she will not be happy till she destroys herself from within and breaks your heart.

a normal businessman would maybe have loan to repay on that property but most landlord in cambodia bought in cash or inherited it, so a 2500$ contract for 5 years is less appetising as a 5 yrs 4000$ contract later

At first I thought this was about arrests in whorehouses. Quite disappointing.
