Investment sales fall 26.8% YoY to $20.5b in 2023

The residential market accounted for 64.4% of total investment sales in 4Q23.

Total investment sales hit $20.5b in 2023, translating to a 26.8% decline from the $28.0b in 2022.

The recorded sale was within Savills’ 2023 full-year expectation of $19.0b to $21.0b.

Looking at 4Q23 alone, investment sales dropped 26.6% QoQ to $5.4b.

According to Savills, the residential market accounted for more than half (64.4%) of the total investment sales for 4Q23.

Residential investment sales for 4Q23 reached $3.5b, mainly due to four Government Land Sales (GLS) residential sites awarded.

Meanwhile, the commercial sector posted $1.6b in investment sales and the industrial sector recorded $278.2m in 4Q23.

In 2024, Savills projects total investment to hit $22b to $23b as the GLS market remains active and given the likelihood of an interest rate cut in 2H24.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
