Savills sees 3% rise in home prices in 2026

RCR prices may overlap with CCR in some launches.

Savills forecasts private home prices to rise about 3% in 2026, as it expects sustained launch activity and continued buyer interest in well-located city-fringe and prime projects.

The consultancy said 2026 could see selective repricing, with Rest of Central Region prices potentially overlapping with Core Central Region pricing in some launches, narrowing the usual price gap between the segments.

Savills said new home sales reached 10,815 units in 2025, the first time above 10,000 since 2021, whilst launches rose to 11,482 units, the highest since 2013, which it said signalled developer confidence and underlying demand.

It noted new sales eased 10.6% QoQ to 2,940 units in Q4 2025 due to fewer launches, but said take-up remained firm and RCR accounted for more than half of quarterly sales.

Alan Cheong, executive director of research and consultancy at Savills Singapore, said the market may need one to two years before broader repricing reoccurs, but he expects segment-level repricing within RCR and CCR in 2026 as selected RCR launches test CCR-associated price points.

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.
