Prime grade office rents up 1.4% QoQ in Q3

Average rent in the Raffles Place / Marina Bay precinct is now at $10.51 psf pm.

Prime grade office rents rose by 1.4% QoQ in the third quarter, data from Knight Frank showed.

Average rent in the Raffles Place / Marina Bay precinct is now at $10.51 psf pm.

According to Knight Frank, the market balance has shifted to landlords providing support for the higher rents this quarter due to the non-excessive supply of new office inventory coupled with increasing demand for prime space.

Meanwhile, occupancy levels in the Raffles Place / Marina Bay precinct and overall CBD also remained healthy at 95.4% and 93.6%, respectively.

"Many businesses are bringing employees back to the office as functions resume to pre-pandemic levels and as companies expand headcount in the second half of the year to meet the operational needs of a normalising economy," Knight Frank said.

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.
