Chart of the Day: Residential sales dominated investment transactions in Q4

Over $7.14b worth of sales comprised 66% of the total.

This chart from Savills Singapore shows the investment value of residential sites and units rose to $7.14b, contributing about 66% of Q4’s total volume.

The residential segment was again the best performer amongst real estate investments.

Meanwhile, investment sales in the commercial segment grew by 19.2% QoQ to $3.09b in the reviewed quarter and contributed 28.6% of the transaction values in the fourth quarter.

The growth was mostly driven by the sale of the Beach Road commercial site and Chevron House.

The industrial segment closed Q4 with $518.4m worth of transactions. This made up 4.8% of the total investment sales for that quarter.

However, compared with the high base of $2.87b in Q3, due mainly to the sale of Jurong Aromatics Complex, investment sales value plunged by 81.9% QoQ.

Compared with 2016, investment activity in the hospitality property segment picked up in 2017 with four deals resulting in a total transaction volume of $275.4m.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
