Developer sales up 18.3% to 381 units in January

This was despite the lack of new launches in the said month.

Developers have managed to sell a total of 381 private residential units in the past month compared to 322 units in the same month last year. The number excludes EC sales.

According to PropNex, this marked an 18.3% increase from last year, reflecting the greater confidence and activities by buyers despite the lack of new launches in January.

The 108 units launched in January was the lowest number in the past year. This is mainly due to developers timing their project launches, preferring to wait after the Chinese New Year (CNY) celebrations

Including ECs developers recorded a sale volume of 565 units, down from the 580 units in the past month but higher than the 480 units recorded in the same month last year.

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.
