Office space prices up 1.3% in Q1

Rents also grew by 2.6%.

The prices of office space jumped by 1.3% the first quarter of 2018, softer than the 2.7% increase in the previous quarter, the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) revealed. The rentals of office space rose at the same pace as the previous quarter by 2.6%.

There was a total supply of about 791,000 sqm gross floor area GFA of office space in the pipeline, 32.5% higher than the 597,000 sqm GFA last quarter.

URA added that the amount of occupied office space increased by 14,000 sqm (nett), softer than the increase of 55,000 sqm (nett) in the previous quarter. Meanwhile, the stock of office space increased by 11,000 sqm (nett), which is better than the decrease of 4,000 sqm (nett) in the previous quarter.

As a result, the island-wide vacancy rate of office space dropped to 12.5%, from 12.6% at the end of the previous quarter.

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

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.
