What will stabilise the weak property sector?

Upcoming new launches will pique buyer sentiment.

It will be a complete turnaround for the property sector in the coming months as upcoming launches will boost buyer sentiments.

According to a report by DBS Research, in the pipeline are a number of residential projects primed for launch in the coming months including Alps Residences (MCC Land), Forest Woods (CDL), The Clement Canopy(UOL) and Queens Peak (HY Realty).

"Healthy take-up rates during the launches will be seen by the market as sign of a further stabilisation of the property sector," the report said.

This is following the weak developer sales registered in August due to lack of major launches.

"The lack of new launches meant that primary sales came in 58% lower m-o-m, 17% lower y-o-y to 805 units," DBS noted.

Sales were partially buoyed by resale transactions, which saw a 30% YoY increase.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

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.
