How the completion of Asia Square Tower 2 will impact office rentals

Its pre-commitment level is now ~20%.

According to Maybank Kim Eng, their analysts think the supply dynamics will change again, once the 775,000 sq ft Asia Square Tower 2 is completed in around Sep 2013.

Currently, its pre-commitment level remains sub-par at around 20%, and when it gets completed, the ~600,000 sq ft of vacant space may lead to further downside pressure in office rentals.

Here's more from Maybank Kim Eng:

In addition, the impending additional supply from decentralized office space on CBD office rentals cannot be ignored.

High-quality decentralized developments like CapitaLand’s Westgate Tower are likely to draw tenants away from Grade B developments in the CBD, leading to a hollowing-out effect, potentially triggering more substantial declines in Grade B office rentals

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.
