COTD: GCB prices highly volatile amidst thin trading in H1

On a half-yearly basis, the average unit price stood at $2,242 per square foot.

The prices of good-class bungalows experienced volatility amidst the thin transaction volume in the first six months of 2025, according to PropNex.

On a half-yearly basis, the average unit price stood at $2,242 per square foot (psf) on land area in H1 2025, compared with $2,053 psf in H1 2024 and $2,017 psf in H2 2024.

Whilst GCB demand may fluctuate and be swayed by market movement, PropNex still expects prices to hold up owing to the scarce supply of such properties and rising wealth.

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.
