Singapore private homes 13th costliest in the world

Guess which country tops the list at US$58,300 per square meter.

Across the Atlantic, many of Europe’s most established prime locations are already feeling the pinch, said latest Wealth Report by the Knight Frank and Citi.

According to the report, Monaco can still comfortably claim the most expensive real estate in the world, but prices there, along with the French Riviera, fell in 2011, in part confirming the impact of the eurozone crisis on market performance. “It is no coincidence that the only two European cities in our PIRI that recorded price increases last year were London and Zurich – both outside the eurozone,” it said.

Singapore meanwhile ranked 13th most expensive real estate even as prices of private homes in 2011 fell by 4.7% to US$25,600 psm.

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.
