Potential homebuyers spooked by rising interest rates

Unaffordable downpayments are also deterrents.

Economic uncertainty and the prospect of rising interest rates are the top obstacles for potential property buyers in Singapore, according to iProperty's Asia Property Market Sentiment Report for 1H 2015.

Almost three out of ten or 28% of respondents cited these factors as their main deterrent to getting home loans, while 23% of those polled lamented that unaffordable downpayments are keeping them from buying properties.

Another 16% cited insufficient incomes as the obstacle to buying properties, while 14% had difficulty qualifying for loans.

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.
