Industrial property prices rise 6% in 2Q11

The average monthly rents of factories and warehouses increased to S$1.7 to S$2.1 per sq ft.

Prices and rents
Underpinned by strong buying activities, the Urban Redevelopment Authority Price index for all industrial properties rose 6% in Q2 after an 8% gain in Q1, according to Savills’ latest Industrial Briefings Q2/2011. Recent launch prices reflect upbeat market expectations. For example, Oxley Group sold nearly 60% of the launched units at Oxley Bizhub over a weekend soft launch at an average price of S$677 per sq ft, setting a new benchmark in the area,.

The URA rental index rose 6% in Q2, the same rate as in Q1. The average monthly rents of prime ﬂatted factories and warehouses tracked by Savills rose to S$1.7 to S$2.1 per sq ft in Q2, while high-tech industrial rents strengthened to S$3.6 to S$4.0 per sq ft.

Future supply
At the end of Q2/2011, an estimated 39.3 million sq ft of factory space and 7.0 million sq ft of warehouse space is expected to be completed between 2011 and 2015.

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.
