Property investment to dip 5% in 2026 as rental growth stalls
Geopolitical and trade-related risks hamper growth.
Singapore’s real estate investment activity is expected to fall by 5% in 2026, amidst exposure to geopolitical and trade-related risks.
Industrial and logistics demand continues to be supported by supply-chain diversification and e-commerce expansion, but rental growth is not expected in the country, according to a Savills report.
“Cross-border investors are cautious given geopolitical risks. But they continue to favour Japan, Australia, South Korea and, to a lesser extent, Singapore,” the report said.
However, Singapore’s market is still expected to be stable despite the projected decline, it added.
