Property investment to dip 5% in 2026 as rental growth stalls

Geopolitical and trade-related risks hamper growth.

Singapore’s real estate investment activity is expected to fall by 5% in 2026, amidst exposure to geopolitical and trade-related risks.

Industrial and logistics demand continues to be supported by supply-chain diversification and e-commerce expansion, but rental growth is not expected in the country, according to a Savills report.

“Cross-border investors are cautious given geopolitical risks. But they continue to favour Japan, Australia, South Korea and, to a lesser extent, Singapore,” the report said.

However, Singapore’s market is still expected to be stable despite the projected decline, it 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.
