Posh home prices predicted to slip 0.3-0.5% in 4Q

Could this be a good sign?

According to Knight Frank, looking ahead towards the last quarter this year in light of existing cooling measures and as TDSR ruling continues to bite, further price moderation is expected in most market segments. 

High-end private home prices are likely to post an average 0.3 per cent to 0.5 per cent q-o-q decrease in 4Q 2013.

Here's more from Knight Frank:

The mid-tier segment in the RCR could see an uptick in private home prices with modest price increase of about 0.2 per cent q-o-q, in view of upcoming new project launches at good locations.

Mass market home price escalation could further moderate with marginal increases of around 0.5 per cent to 1 per cent q-o-q, as developers adjust new sale prices to boost sales performance in light of an anticipated high influx of new projects up for launch.

Overall prices for private homes are expected to increase by 1 to 2 per cent annually by year-end.

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.
