1. Five wrong mindsets in project development
In the real estate project development process, several wrong mindsets can lead to inefficiency, such as lack of thorough market research, unclear legal procedures, improper cost management, and weak organizational structure.
1.1. Product positioning
A common mistake is when an investor owns a qualified land plot and decides to develop a project based on personal judgment, without conducting market research or defining the product segment.
Correct mindset: Conduct thorough market research, evaluate competing products, define the target segment, set a competitive selling price, and determine the optimal business timing.

1.2. Legal procedures
Many investors wrongly assume that obtaining a construction permit (GPXD) is the final step in securing the project’s legal status.
Correct mindset:
- Fulfill all financial obligations and commitments to local authorities during the investment process.
- Ensure the project is inspected and approved by regulatory agencies before use and fulfill all responsibilities as an investor.

1.3. Investor responsibilities
Some believe that once the property is handed over and ownership certificates (red books) are issued, their responsibilities end.
Correct responsibilities:
- For customers: Deliver high-quality properties, issue ownership certificates on time, and provide after-sales support.
- For the residential community: Assist in establishing the apartment management board, handover property rights, management operations, and maintenance fees, ensuring a smooth transition.
- For government agencies: Transfer technical and social infrastructure (if applicable) and complete financial obligations.

1.4. Cost vs. value
Some investors focus excessively on cost reduction, leading to poor project quality and lack of added value for future residents.
Correct mindset:
- Enhance project value to justify higher selling prices, thereby increasing profitability.
- Analyze why projects in the same location achieve different business outcomes and learn from their success factors.

1.5. Organizational structure
Many projects fail due to a poorly structured management team or over-reliance on fragmented service providers.
Correct mindset:
- Build a professional project management team with specialized departments.
- Partner with a professional project development firm to mitigate risks and maximize project value.
