CapitaLand Ascendas REIT to sell five SG properties for $329m

Net proceeds are expected to be $313.1m.

CapitaLand Ascendas REIT (CLAR) will divest five industrial and logistics properties in Singapore for $329m.

The properties are 31 Ubi Road 1, 9 Changi South Street 3, 10 Toh Guan Road, 19 & 21 Pandan Avenue, and 30 Tampines Industrial Avenue 3.

The sale represents a 6% premium over their market value of $311.3m and a 20% premium over their original purchase price of $274.2m.

Net proceeds are expected to be S$313.1m and could be used to reduce debt, fund investments, or support distributions to unitholders.

If applied to repay borrowings as of 31 December 2024, CLAR’s leverage would fall from 37.7% to 36.6%.

The divestments are expected to complete in Q4 2025, leaving CLAR with 226 properties across Singapore, Australia, the US, and the UK/Europe.

This follows the June 2025 sale of Parkside in Portland, US, for $26.5m, a 45% premium to its market value.

Total divestments announced by CLAR in 2025 now total $355.5m.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
