CapitaLand CEO says property market is bottoming out

There has been 15 quarters of home price declines already.

CapitaLand CEO Lim Ming Yan said the residential property market is bottoming out after a run of price declines.

In an interview with Bloomberg TV, Lim said for a rebound to take place on a more sustainable basis, there has to be overall improvements in the fundamentals.

The government’s efforts to cool a red-hot market have triggered a record 15-quarter decline in home prices, in contrast with cities such as Hong Kong, where property keeps soaring to records. In March, Singapore eased some restrictions, but cautioned that those adjustments didn’t signal any bigger unwinding of curbs.

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.
