CapitaLand's Singapore sales took a 24% dive to 681 units

It still targets to gain 8-10% market share.

According to CIMB, unit sales in 2012 fell from 844 units in FY11 to 681 units in FY12. Recent incentive schemes introduced at D’Leedon and The Interlace have helped to push sales up with 395 units sold YTD.

This comes at the expense of margins, which we estimate have been squeezed to single digit levels. While management aspires to achieve 8-10% of total market share in Singapore residential, it concedes that the latest cooling measures will have an adverse effect on sentiment and volume.

Here's more from CIMB:

Singapore residential remains a core segment for the group but management is likely to be selective in future landbanking. For 2013, projects due to be handed over are Urban Suites (100% sold), Urban Resort (42% sold) and The Interlace (71% sold).

Units due for launch in 2013 include the remaining units at The Interlace, D’Leedon and Sky Habitat, and new projects in Marine Point and Bishan St 14.

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.
