Mr. Bùi Văn Nam signed to buy a social housing apartment, has paid 95% of the contract value, and is awaiting the certificate before paying the remaining 5%. He asks whether he may let someone else rent the unit. The Ministry of Construction explains that social housing is State-supported housing, and under Decree 16/2022/NĐ-CP, buyers who sell, sub-lease or resell it improperly face fines of VND 100,000,000 to 120,000,000 and recovery of the housing. Under Decree 100/2024/NĐ-CP, provincial authorities must closely manage and monitor sales, leases and lease-purchases of social housing. The ministry advises him to study and comply with the regulations.

- Dems target Zillow - style co - marketing ; review RESPA exposure
Two Democratic senators, Cory Booker and Elizabeth Warren, asked the FTC last week to investigate "anticompetitive and deceptive" practices by dominant real estate platforms, heavily alluding to Zillow. They say platform-affiliated agents often steer buyers to affiliated lenders with higher rates and worse loan terms, without disclosing referral fees or commission-sharing arrangements, and criticize the anticompetitive use of private listings. The FTC sued Redfin and Zillow last year over Zillow's $100 million payment for Redfin to shutter its apartment listings, and the sides reached a deal in August. The letter cites a national median home price of around $440,600 per NAR this summer, and notes that rates once under 6% are now in the 7% range. The article suggests mortgage lenders with co-marketing or referral ties to such platforms may want to review their RESPA exposure; neither the FTC nor Zillow responded to requests for comment.

- Stockland ( SGP ASX ) housing buyer inquiries drop to seven - year low as residential property downturn continues
Stockland's new housing inquiries, a leading indicator of future sales, fell to 10,452 in the three months to September, almost half the 20,183 recorded in the December quarter. That is the lowest level since the September quarter of 2020 and the lowest in at least seven years. The company, the country's largest listed diversified developer, linked the decline to higher interest rates, rising construction costs and broader economic uncertainty that have stifled demand from potential buyers.
- Opendoor is piloting a 2 % down shared equity option in North Carolina
Opendoor is testing a shared-equity program called “Own” in North Carolina, letting buyers put down just 2% instead of the 10% to 20% usually required by conventional lenders. Buyers make one fixed monthly payment over five years, gradually acquiring equity while living in the home, and can buy out the remaining equity at fair market value at any point in that term. Partner Ownify's home fund co-invests to cover the rest of the purchase price. The program remains small and its waitlist is closed, and qualified applicants generally need a minimum 660 credit score and household income of at least $60,000. One analyst said the model would be hard to scale without a large amount of capital.

- UPS Yields 6.7% After Firing Amazon. Here's Whether the Dividend Survives 2027.
UPS shares yield 6.7% as of October 16. The company has moved away from high-volume, low-margin Amazon deliveries and froze its dividend earlier this year, ending a 16-year streak of increases. The article says the payout will likely remain frozen through 2026 and 2027, citing competition from 10- and 30-year Treasury yields above 5% and other industrial dividend payers, but calls the dividend's safety questionable: UPS generated $5.47 billion in free cash flow in 2025, with $5.4 billion going to dividends, and free cash flow is projected to fall to $5.05 billion in 2026 and $5.01 billion in 2027, with the dividend absorbing about 98% of 2026 free cash flow. Rising competition and high fuel prices add pressure, and the article suggests investors may find more safety in the industrial sector.

- What Could X-Energy (XE) Gain From Its 960MW Indiana Nuclear Project?
X-Energy (NasdaqGS:XE), American Electric Power and Amazon agreed to assess a 960 MW advanced nuclear project in Indiana using Xe-100 reactors, on a former coal plant site. Under the joint development agreement, Amazon would provide development funding and commit to a long-term power purchase. The article says the deal offers commercial validation for X-Energy's reactor platform rather than immediate financial relief, as the company, with a $4.3b market cap, reported $150.28 million in revenue, a $448.87 million loss, and a 20.2x price-to-sales ratio. The next key milestone is whether the study reaches a final investment decision for the Sullivan County site.
