Brace yourselves for stiffer housing demand measures in Singapore

Property market is in ''wrong part of cycle''.

According to CIMB, in SG, physical prices and transaction volumes are now at historic highs. Physical completions in both the private and HDB segments are also expected to rise significantly in 2013-2015.

The government has recently introduced “Round Seven” of property curbs to cap LTV ratios and increase the Additional Buyers Stamp Duty (ABSD) payable by foreigners and locals buying a second property or more.

Here's more from CIMB:

Finance Minister Tharman Shanmugaratnam was recently quoted in saying that the “Singapore's property is now in a wrong part of the cycle” and that “some correction in prices will not be out of order”.

We believe more will be done to further restrict housing demand in SG.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
