Residential assets lead Q3 investment sales with 46.3% share

Industrial and office sectors contribute 44.2% combined

Singapore’s investment sales reached $10.1b in Q3 2025, with residential assets contributing 46.3% of the total, according to Realion (OrangeTee & ETC) Research. The sector’s dominance reflects sustained developer interest in well-located plots with strong transport and amenity access.

Industrial assets accounted for 26.5% of investment sales, supported by warehouse demand and stable rental growth. Office assets contributed 17.7%, underpinned by tight CBD occupancy and limited new supply.

Retail assets made up 5.2% of the quarter’s investment volume, while hotel and shop house segments remained niche at 2.2% and 2.0% respectively. Investor appetite in these categories was constrained by cautious sentiment and limited transaction activity.

The sectoral mix highlights investor preference for residential and industrial assets with redevelopment potential and resilient income profiles. As pricing gaps narrow and interest rate pressures ease, investment momentum is expected to strengthen across core segments.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
