More than half of home owners today bought their units in resale market

Permanet Residents are thrice as many as one would expect for a suburban private property.

Here's from Square Foot Research:

The resale market, beyond the 5‐year MOP, consists of 66% Singaporeans, 29% Permanent Residences
(PRs) and 5% foreigners.

More than half of the current owners bought their units in the resale market.

The number of PRs is almost three times as many as one would expect for a suburban private property.

This is in part due to the resale restriction from the fifth to tenth year after completion, where only Singaporeans and Singapore PRs are eligible to purchase.

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.
