The inaugural congress of the Ho Chi Minh City Apartment Management Association (HCMO) took place on March 19, marking the official launch of the first-ever professional body dedicated to apartment building operations and management in Vietnam.
Approved by the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee, HCMO formally held its first general meeting for the 2026–2031 term. This landmark event represents a significant step in meeting the practical needs of society and the rapid growth of the urban real estate market.
HCMO will serve as a vital bridge between businesses, residents, and state management agencies. Its primary mission is to foster cooperation, facilitate the sharing of professional experience, and enhance the overall quality of management services.
Speaking at the event, Mr. Nguyen Tien Dung, the newly elected Chairman of HCMO, emphasized: "During the 2026–2031 term, HCMO aims to build a robust organization focused on connectivity and sustainable growth. The association will prioritize elevating service quality, standardizing apartment management operations, cultivating a modern 'apartment culture,' and driving sustainable urban development. Furthermore, HCMO will act as an official forum to resolve disputes and promote civilized conduct within residential communities."
Industry experts evaluate the establishment of HCMO as more than just a win for HCM City; it is a pioneering model for the entire country.
As the first professional organization of its kind in Vietnam, it lays the essential foundation for standardizing and professionalizing the apartment management industry nationwide. HCMO is expected to share its expertise, standards, and positive values with other provinces, contributing to the development of a synchronized, modern, and sustainable apartment management system across Vietnam.
