COTD: Residential sector dominates investor interest in H1 2024

The GLS Programme boosted sales in the residential sector.

In H1 2024, total investment volume surged 56.6% year-on-year (YoY) to $10.4b from $6.6b in H1 2023, Cushman & Wakefield reported.

The residential sector dominated, boosted by sales under the Government Land Sales (GLS) Programme.

Investor sentiment in the retail sector is also seeing a rise with total investment volume recorded in H1 increasing by 1.6% year-to-date (YTD).

Cushman & Wakefield expect that easing interest rates, along with value-add and redevelopment opportunities, will boost total investment sales in 2024 to $22.0b, reflecting a 19.4% YoY increase.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
