Why did leasing volume for private homes in CCR decline?

There is a scarcity of supply for wealthy expatriates.

For the third consecutive quarter, Savills said the leasing volume of private residential assets dropped by 8.7% to 20,751 transactions in the second quarter this year.

Savills said the leasing volume in the core central region (CCR) went down because of lack of accommodation for rich foreigners.

“Consequently, without their preferred accommodation, some have rescheduled their relocation here or temporarily living in serviced apartments/hotels while their families are waiting overseas,” said Savills in its 2022 report.

This trend is still happening in the third quarter of 2022, Savills also said.

“From the top down, this has a pneumatic effect on forcing up rents across the rental chain. However, stocks are also limited in those regions, but not in such short supply as those in the luxury range,” the property expert said.

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.
