Find a villa or house for sale in Siem Reap
Over the past decade the city’s fast development has been driven by the growth of tourism in the area, largely due to the unparalleled attractions located on its doorstep in the Angkor archaeological park. All the signs are that this growth will continue in the future.
Siem Reap is a wonderful, thriving city that is easy to navigate yet close enough to majestic Angkor Wat to provide both a vibrancy as well as perpetual source of income.
Due to the limited number of condos, the opportunities for foreigners or expatriates to purchase property in Siem Reap are limited. Foreigners can only purchase property in condos built since 2009, but only where the building has been legally registered as a strata property. One such option is Rose Apple Square, which has a mix of condos and mixed-use property to purchase.
