Private residential property prices inch up by 0.6 in Q1

This marks a slowdown from the 2.3% increase in the previous quarter.

Private residential property prices in Singapore rose by just 0.6% in the first quarter of 2025, a sharp drop from the 2.3% increase in the previous quarter, according to the Urban Redevelopment Authority.

Price growth for non-landed properties slowed across all segments, and total sale transaction volume fell by 15% quarter-on-quarter.

To address housing demand and stabilise the market, the government increased private housing supply in the Government Land Sales (GLS) Programme for 1H2025 to 8,505 units. This includes 5,030 units (980 Executive Condominiums) available through the Confirmed List, nearly 60% higher than the average supply from 2021 to 2023.

The government said it will continue to release a steady supply of private housing, adjusted for economic and market conditions.

Singapore’s GDP growth is expected to slow in 2025 due to global trade tensions, geopolitical uncertainties, and economic policy challenges.

Despite a dip in US interest rates in Q4 2024, domestic mortgage rates are expected to remain high.

Households are urged to exercise caution when purchasing properties and taking on mortgage loans.

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.
