Home launches in the OCR dipped 8.1% to 702 units

The largest was the 380-unit Stratum.

According to Colliers International, launch volume in the Outside Central Region (OCR) slipped 8.1% to 702 units owing to the lack of major project launches for the second consecutive month. As a result, home-buying activity was stable with buyers taking up 728 units in May, just 0.1% short of the 729 units sold in April.

Consequently, launch and sales volume in the OCR account for 46.2% and 50.0% of total launch and sales volume islandwide, down from 65.7% and 52.8%, respectively in April.

Only a handful of projects were newly launched in the OCR. The largest was the 380-unit and fully launched Stratum (269 units sold). The others include the 136-unit NeWest (68 units sold) and 53-unit Cambio Suites (15 units sold), both were fully launched.

With limited new project launches in the region in May, developers continued to move units in projects that were previously launched. These include La Fiesta (another 46 units sold), Midtown Residences (moved another 32 units) and D’nest (another 29 units sold).

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.
