Demand for residential properties falls 14.4% QoQ in 3Q23

Supply likewise dipped during the quarter.

The residential market saw a decline in both supply and demand in 3Q23.

According to PropertyGuru, the Singapore Property Sale Demand Index dropped sharply by 14.4% QoQ, whilst the overall Sale Supply Index slipped by 0.7% QoQ.

Consequently, the Singapore Property Sale Price Index fell 1.8% QoQ, after a 1.0% increase from the previous period.

“The combination of rising home acquisition costs and economic uncertainties may have given would-be sellers some pause from putting their properties on the market,” PropertyGuru said.

“Foreign property owners also held back – under the current ABSD framework, these individuals faced high property replacement costs should they choose to buy a new property,” PropertyGuru added.

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.
