Narrowing price expectations boost landed home transactions by 45.8% in Q2

The number of landed homes sold in Q2 was also 58.1% YoY higher.

The narrowing price expectations between sellers and buyers led to a 45.8% increase in landed home transactions in Q2 2024.

In Q2 2024, 430 landed homes exchanged hands, 58.1% YoY higher than in Q2 2023.

According to Huttons, the biggest surge in transacted volume was observed in the semi-detached homes segment. Sales of semi-detached homes jumped by 60% QoQ and 81.3% YoY to 136 units.

Huttons said the 1.9% QoQ reduction in semi-detached home prices to $1,776 psf may have encouraged more transactions.

A semi-detached home on Jalan Chempaka Kuning, however,  was the lowest-valued landed home transacted in Q2, selling for $0.5m. Meanwhile, the most expensive landed home in Q2 was a freehold detached home on Jalan Tupai, sold for $32.5m.

With more transactions, the total value of landed homes sold in Q2 was $2.3b, marking a 46.4% increase from $1.6b in Q1 and a 54.7% rise YoY.

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.
