Singapore developers predicted to keep a more cautious stance in site biddings

Market activity feared to plateau.

According to Savills, even before the announcement of the latest rules from the MAS to restrict home loans, news of the US Federal Reserve’s intention to taper off its third quantitative easing by year’s end has caused anxiety over the end of an era of easy debt financing at low interest rates.

Savills said that as market sentiment begins to wane, activity in the residential market is expected to moderate over the next few months and developers are likely to adopt a more cautious stance when bidding for new sites in the second half of 2013.

"Moving forward, private residential prices are likely to rise marginally until the end of the year, with the mass-market segment taking the lead," Savills said.

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.
