Singapore sees slowest quarter in total investment deals since 2020

Total investment sales amounted to S$4.2b during the first quarter.

Investment deals slowed in the first quarter of 2023 with total investment sales amounting to S$4.2b, a 61% year-on-year drop, Knight Frank reported.

This is the lowest quarterly total since the second quarter of 2020, when Singapore was placed under the circuit breaker.

Residential deals over the quarter amounted to S$1.6b, comprising collective sales that amounted to some S$583.8m.

The commercial market was quiet for the most part, but the sale of 29 Robinson Road drove up the total to S$1.9b.

The sale of industrial properties increased 62.8% QoQ to S$681.1m in comparison to the fourth quarter of 2022.

Knight Frank attributed this to the market shifting its focus while waiting tentatively on the sidelines for adjustment and possible repricing largely in the commercial sector.

SBR 5 Lorem Ipsum News 2 [8 May]

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
