Chart of the Day: Home vacancy rate crawls up 6.2% to 18,003

Find out where the boost is from.

According to Savills, as of Q4/2013, there were 18,003 vacant units out of the current 289,370 available private homes across the island.

This translates to a vacancy rate of 6.2%, inching up marginally by 0.1 of a percentage point from the previous quarter.

Here's more from Savills:

The increase was due to the spike from 2.7% to 7.1% in the North-East region, whereas vacancy rates declined in the other regions.

Some major projects completed in Q4/2013 are located in suburban or city fringe areas, such as The Minton on Hougang Street 11 (1,145 units), The Scala on Serangoon Avenue 3 (468 units), Spottiswoode Residences on Spottiswoode Park Road (351
units) and Vista Residences on Jalan Datoh (280 units).

Meanwhile, the latest high-end projects added to the market comprised The Glyndebourne on Trevose Crescent (150 units) and
L’VIV on Newton Road (147 units)

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.
