Residential investment sales climb 6.6% to $3.58 bil in 3Q2022: Savills
Last quarter, non commercial investment deals comprised 72% of the overall financial investment sales value for the whole property investment market. This is increase from just 45% in 2Q2022. At the same time, industrial assets made up 14% of the overall investment value last quarter and industrial sales consisted of 13%.
According to a market investment report by Savills Singapore, household investment sales grew 6.6% q-o-q to hit $3.58 billion in 3Q2022. This is the 2nd running quarter that this industry has clocked a rise and expands the 7.4% q-o-q progress documented in 2Q2022.
Looking forward, he says market action for the rest in this year will probably be overruled by small-scale to medium sized sales, particularly in the shophouse and strata sector markets.
Special home investment sales last quarter came from bigger cumulative sales offers as well as a strong take-up of brand-new kick off. Furthermore, decreasing landbanks are urging property developers to consider exclusive collective-sale sites, states Savills.

Nonetheless, the general assets sales valuation dropped by 33.4% q-o-q to a total of nearly $5 billion in 3Q2022. That is the cheapest level since 1Q2021, when the sales number amounted to $3.89 billion. On a yearly basis, the financial investment sales worth last quarter was still 32.5% less than the same period in 2022.

For this sub-group of real estate investors, interest rates take a backseat in their decision-making procedures as a few do not even obtain for a purchase,” claims Cheong.
The biggest collective sale so far this season is the $890 million purchase of Chuan Park, which was marketed collectively to Chinese developers Kingsford Development along with MCC Land in July.
Conversely, commercial financial investment sales as a proportion of overall assets sales acquired from 30.3% in 2Q2022 to simply 14.4% last quarter. This is due to the lack of major deals as the only significant transaction was that of OCN Building for $42 million.
According to Alan Cheong, head of Savills Research study, “greater and rising rate of interest are reining in institutional buyers who are fragile to the take-home pay versus interest cost proportions”, yet smaller purchase volumes of under $150 million draw in home workplaces, high-net-worth people, boutique personal equity and business entities.
In the industrial industry, sales similarly reported a 2nd successive regular rise to $673.4 million, more than tripling its $198.1 million performance in 2Q2022. Savills associates this growth to even more plus bigger-sized special offers. The biggest offer previous quarter was the purchase of a freezer establishment by Ascendas Reit for $191.9 million last period.
