Commercial investment sales up 6.4% to $12b in 2017

Retail scored the largest commercial property deal with the $2.2b Jurong Point transaction.

Total commercial investment sales rose 6.4% YoY to $12b (US$9b) following a string of high-value deals in the retail, office and residential segments, according to Colliers International’s quarterly investment sales report.

Total commercial investment sales also rose 9.8% QoQ in Q4 to $3.1b but fell 32% YoY as the previous quarter’s robust figures were boosted a high-value government land sale.

The retail sector snagged the largest recorded commercial property deal for 2017 with the sale of Jurong Point at $2.2b in Q2 followed by the office sector’s $2.09b transaction of the Asia Square Tower 2 in Q3.

The $1.62m sale of Beach Road as part of the GLS programme to Guocoland and Guoco Group was also a notable year-end transaction.

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.
