Chart of the Day: 500-700 sqft flats take up most of non-landed unit sales in Q1

This unit size range mainly consists of one- and two-bedroom units.

This chart from EDMUND TIE shows the sales of non-landed units by floor area in Q1, where the highest proportion of primary market transactions in Q1 by strata floor area of 33% constituted units between 500 and 700 sqft, a marginal uptick compared to 32% in Q4 2019.

This unit size range mainly consists of one- and two-bedroom units. This was followed by units within 700 sqft to 1,000 sqft in size, which comprised 31% of the transactions in Q1. Meanwhile, units less than 500 sqft and 1,000 sqft to 1,500 sqft ranged 31% and 19% in Q1, respectively. Both the same with their Q4 counterparts.

For this size range, bedroom configurations largely ranged from 1+study bedroom type in prime districts and two- to three-bedroom types in other districts.

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.
