Investment sales volume grows by 13.3% YoY in Q4 2024

During Q4 2024, investment volume was around $7b, according to Colliers.

Singapore’s investments for the fourth quarter of 2024 (Q4 2024) grew by 13.3% year-on-year (YoY) to $26.6b despite declining 21.8% quarter-on-quarter, according to a Colliers report.

During Q4 2024, investment volume was around $7b, with several Government Land Sales (GLS) tenders accounting for $1.2b, or 17.6% of the quarter's total investments. This is also equivalent to 32.9% of the total investments during the years.

Excluding GLS deals, investment sales this year were boosted by the Industrial (28.3%), Residential (20.6%), and Retail (17.6%) sectors.

For 2025, Colliers estimates investment sales to be around 10-20% higher than in 2024, coming in at between $29b to $32b driven by the anticipated increase in capital flows to the region.

However, whilst investment sentiment is set to improve, borrowing costs remain relatively high compared to pre-pandemic levels. The decline in interest rates may be gradual, potentially delaying the pace of recovery in investment volumes across 2025.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
