Commercial Real Estate: Cambodia’s Most Underrated Opportunity

Share this Article  

In Cambodia’s fast-evolving real estate market, residential condos have long captured the spotlight. But another asset class is quietly gaining traction: one with strong long-term potential and surprisingly little competition: commercial office ownership.

Despite Phnom Penh’s rapid growth and its appeal to international businesses, the city has a limited supply of strata-title office space, especially at the Grade-A level. Most office buildings in the capital operate on a lease-only basis, leaving few options for those who want to own their workspace or invest in high-quality, income-generating office units.

ODOM Is the Quiet Game-Changer You Should Be Watching

That’s what makes ODOM Tower a standout. As one of the first Grade-A, strata-title office developments in Phnom Penh, ODOM is reshaping how investors and businesses think about commercial real estate in Cambodia. 

Why ODOM Leads the Charge

LEED Gold Pre‑certified Sustainability

ODOM is LEED® Gold pre-certified under LEED v4 BD+C: Core and Shell, a first for commercial towers of this scale in Phnom Penh. It’s built for long-term performance and responsible operation.   

Sustainability Highlights include:

  • 15–20% projected energy reduction.
  • Rainwater harvesting, low-flow fixtures, and optimized natural lighting & ventilation.
  • EV charging, bike parking, waste segregation, and eco-friendly building materials.

Strata-Title Office Ownership: Flexibility for Business or Investment

With over 43,000 m² of premium office space across 45 floors, ODOM Tower offers units ranging from 62 m² boutique offices to 1,515 m² full-floor HQs.

Buyers have flexibility

Establish your own office in a prime Phnom Penh location, or lease it out to high-quality tenants and earn steady rental income. This dual-use appeal sets ODOM apart in a market where such options are rare.

Landmark Green Design & Amenity Ecosystem

  • Communal Sky Villages on six floors encourage networking, collaboration, and wellness.
  • Rooftop members-only business club offers an exclusive space for meetings and private events.
  • Shared amenities include pantry kitchens, lobby Wi‑Fi, 24/7 security, underground parking, full power backup, bike storage, and shower facilities.
  • Cambodia’s first AI-assisted twin elevator system ensures faster, smarter vertical movement across the tower

Strategic Location & Accessibility

Located at Preah Norodom Blvd, between the Independence Monument and Mao Tse Tung Blvd, in Sangkat Tonle Bassac — Phnom Penh’s premier business address. It’s just 780 m from Aeon Mall and a 30-minute drive to the international airport.

Why It Matters Now

  1. Rising Demand, Limited Supply
    Cambodia’s economy is expanding (~6 % GDP growth projected in 2024), drawing international firms, yet premium strata-titled office condos are rare giving early investors an edge.
  2. Tangible Asset & Equity Building
    Strata-title means you own property, creating capital appreciation and tangible assets, not just lease payments.
  3. Sustainable & Cost-Efficient
    LEED features reduce utilities, enhance tenant well-being, and attract responsible occupiers boosting occupancy and rental premiums.
  4. Lifestyle & Prestige
    A Norodom Blvd address coupled with green, tech-enabled design positions businesses as forward-thinking and brand-elevated.

Who is it for?

  • Startups & SMEs seeking flexible, scalable office space.
  • Multinationals & NGOs needing prestigious HQs in Phnom Penh.
  • Property investors wanting portfolio diversification with long-term growth.
  • Those prioritizing ESG and sustainability in real estate.

The Market Edge

ODOM Tower isn’t just another building, it’s a strategic move. With international-standard, energy-smart design, strata ownership, and prime positioning, it offers what residential condos can’t: a commercial fortune that grows with Cambodia’s business boom.
