How much does it cost to rent a 2-bedroom apartment (70+ sqm) in a good condominium in Ho Chi Minh City?

The 13 million VND/month price is realistic, but only for year-long contracts, and that's before extra costs — it's more likely a one-bedroom, not a full 70+ sqm two-bedroom.

Renting for less than a year (3-4 months) adds several million VND per month compared to a year-long contract.

Always add 2-4 million VND/month on top of the listed rent — electricity, water, management fee, wifi and cleaning are usually not included in the ad price.

The price difference between long-term (1 year) and short-term (3-4 months) rentals is significant — worth checking both options with the landlord before deciding.
