Report Singapore Property Market to Rebound till 2019


Singapore property market rebound may extend through 2019

Analysts believe the four-year slump that has plagued Singapore’s property market may have come to an end as private home prices rose for a second consecutive quarter in the period ended-31 December.
In fact, analysts at Credit Suisse expect home prices to grow by as much as 10 percent in 2018, while OCBC Investment Research and Morgan Stanley expect an eight percent hike, reported Bloomberg.
Data from the Urban Redevelopment Authority showed that prices increased one percent in 2017 compared with a 3.1 percent drop in 2016.
Developer valuations also continued to be attractive, said Credit Suisse.
The firm named UOL Group Ltd – one of two developers considered by OCBC with the best prospects – as its top pick due to its high exposure to the city-state as well as its residential market. City Developments Ltd, on the other hand, emerged as the favourite of Morgan Stanley and one of OCBC’s best picks.
Credit Suisse expects collective sales, which was valued at $8.3 billion in 2017, to continue to enhance the property market this year.
For 2018, home sales may increase 40 percent, said Morgan Stanley, noting that the housing recovery may extend through 2019.
And while potential government cooling measures may pose risk, such move could be premature since the market is only two quarters into a recovery, it added.
OCBC predicts new home sales to stand between 12,000 and 15,000 units in 2018, while rental prices may increase by five to 10 percent.

Report: Average home prices in Singapore could rise by 17% over 2018-2021 Romesh Navaratnarajah  •  January 11, 2018 Investment volumes to remain strong for Singapore, while home prices are forecast to rise.  The prospects for the Singapore property market are bright, with investment volumes to remain strong and home prices forecast to rise, revealed a 2018 Asia Pacific Property Outlook report released by Colliers International on Wednesday (10 January). On the back of strong economic growth seen in 2017, property investment sales in the city-state are likely to remain robust this year. There was a slew of transactions in 2017 which amounted to an estimated $40.2 billion, up 54 percent from the previous year.

Report - Economic Recovery in Singapore

Published - 10Nov 2017 Todayonline.com SINGAPORE — Singapore's stock market is finally getting some love again. With almost two months of the year to run, the Straits Times Index has already notched up its best annual performance since 2012 amid an economic recovery and a stronger currency. The city-state's equity funds received some US$2 billion (S$2.72 billion) in 10 straight months of inflows, the most annually since 2007, according to data from asset allocation tracking company EPFR Global. That's more than the combined inflows of the past five years and the longest monthly rally since mid-2013, the data show. The city-state has posted solid growth in the past two quarters as global trade continues to rebound, supporting its export-oriented economy. The central bank said last month the country's economic growth will probably come in at the upper half of the 2 per cent to 3 per cent forecast range, its fastest rate since 2014. The property market has shown

Recovery in Singapore Home Prices Gains Momentum

Property prices started recovering in the second half of last year after a near four-year decline caused by a tepid economy and the government's cooling measures aimed at damping speculation. The growing demand for apartments has led to a scramble for land amongst developers, resulting in ever-higher bids at government land auctions as well as at collective or "en-bloc" sales. Such sales take place when apartment owners jointly sell an existing residential building to a developer, getting a much higher price than if they had sold their units individually. The buyer subsequently redevelops the site, taking advantage of increased height limits and plot ratios to build more apartments. Collective sales help to boost demand for property because the sellers would have to find new homes soon after the deal is concluded, while the redeveloped complex will only hit the market three or four years later, after the project is complete. Just Thursday, a site at Cuscaden Road,
