Looking at the data above, Cambodia is offering higher rental yield as well as lower risk because it allows freehold ownership as well as US Dollar real estate transaction so investors are protected from the volatility of local currency value.

In term of taxes, unless you are buying the property under company which has 20% of capital gain tax, Cambodia tax policy is also lower if buying under individual name compare to Vietnam.
