Singapore Industrial Property Market Outlook 2026: Stable Prices and Resilient Demand

Singapore’s industrial property market demonstrated resilience and steady expansion in 2025, supported by a firm economic backdrop and sustained demand from manufacturing, trade related activities, and business services. According to the report, overall industrial prices increased by 5.0% in 2025, strengthening from the 3.5% growth recorded in 2024. This improvement reflects healthier underlying demand conditions, aligned with Singapore’s robust GDP expansion and strong performance in goods producing industries toward the end of the year.

Importantly, price growth remained measured and orderly, suggesting that market activity was driven by genuine occupier requirements rather than speculative pressures. The strengthening performance provides a stable foundation for 2026, particularly as advanced manufacturing, logistics, and technology driven sectors continue to anchor industrial activity.

Transaction volumes remained broadly resilient. While total recorded transactions moderated slightly from 1,880 units in 2024 to 1,821 units in 2025, activity levels remained healthy. Notably, the single user factory segment showed strong momentum, with transactions rising from 98 deals in 2024 to 163 deals in 2025. This increase highlights growing interest from owner occupiers seeking operational control, cost certainty, and purpose built facilities, aligned with ongoing investments into higher value industrial activities.

Strata industrial transactions also reflected sustained investor and occupier confidence. The report highlights several high value caveated deals across diverse locations and tenure profiles, including freehold and long remaining leasehold assets. These transactions demonstrate continued confidence in industrial real estate as a long-term asset class. Demand remains broad based, driven by consolidation, expansion planning, and operational optimisation rather than concentrated speculation.

On the leasing front, rental growth moderated but remained positive. The rental index for all industrial space increased by 2.4% in 2025, easing from 3.5% in 2024. This moderation signals a return toward more sustainable rental conditions rather than weakening fundamentals. Encouragingly, total rental transaction volume rose by 2% year on year, indicating that leasing momentum was supported by genuine business expansion and space requirements.

Business Park rentals continued to command the highest levels, reflecting demand for higher specification space serving technology and research driven sectors. Overall, rental trends point to a balanced and sustainable leasing environment entering 2026.

Looking ahead, Singapore’s economic outlook remains steady, with GDP growth projected at 2% to 4%. Budget 2026 and the S$37 billion RIE2030 plan reinforce long term commitments to advanced semiconductor packaging, aerospace, biomedical sciences, and innovation driven industries. These sectors require high specification industrial facilities, strengthening structural demand for modern industrial and business park developments.

Overall, the industrial market in 2026 is expected to remain stable and fundamentally supported, characterised by steady occupancy, moderated rental growth, and resilient capital values. Strong policy alignment, visible supply pipelines, and sustained investment into high value industries position the sector on a sound and structurally supported footing.

Developer Sales for January 2026 Rebound to Strongest Level Since October

Singapore’s private residential market began 2026 on a firm footing, with developer sales staging a decisive rebound from the seasonal moderation observed in December. According to URA data compiled by SRI Research, new home sales excluding Executive Condominiums rose to 466 units in January, up from 197 units in December. When ECs are included, total developer sales climbed to 990 units, compared with 234 units in the preceding month.

January marked the strongest monthly performance since October, reflecting renewed buyer activity supported by a coordinated wave of new launches. A total of 1,534 units were introduced to the market across segments, providing fresh supply and helping to catalyse transactions at the start of the year. The rebound was largely anchored by three key launches: Coastal Cabana in the EC segment, Newport Residences in the Core Central Region, and Narra Residences in the Outside Central Region.

The OCR accounted for the majority of transactions, contributing 71 percent of total developer sales including ECs. This was primarily driven by Coastal Cabana and Narra Residences, both of which cater to owner occupiers and HDB upgraders seeking relatively accessible price points. Coastal Cabana emerged as the top selling project in January, moving 504 units at a median price of $1,790 $psf. The strong take up underscores resilient demand in the EC segment, where buyers continue to view ECs as an attractive pathway into private housing.

Narra Residences recorded 122 units sold at a median price of $2,148 $psf, reflecting sustained demand for well priced OCR projects that offer a balance of affordability and lifestyle appeal. Together, these developments reinforced the role of mass market and EC launches in anchoring overall transaction volumes.

In the CCR, Newport Residences achieved a solid opening performance, with 132 units sold at a median price of $3,070 $psf. As the first CCR launch of the year, its performance signals a gradual stabilisation in prime segment sentiment. Buyers in this segment remain selective and tend to focus on well-located developments with strong connectivity and long term liveability attributes. The RCR contributed 12 percent of January sales, reflecting steady interest in city fringe projects where buyers continue to weigh affordability alongside accessibility.

Overall, January’s performance demonstrates that the market remains responsive to well positioned launches across segments. While transaction volumes may fluctuate month to month due to seasonality, underlying demand fundamentals remain constructive as 2026 progresses.

Budget 2026 Analysis: What It Means for Singapore’s Property Market

Singapore Budget 2026 is delivered against a backdrop of heightened global uncertainty, including geopolitical tensions and financial market fragility. Despite these external headwinds, Singapore’s macroeconomic outlook remains steady, with GDP growth projected at 2% to 4% and inflation expected to moderate to 1% to 2%. These forecasts reflect a stable economic environment that supports business confidence and household resilience. The Budget reinforces Singapore’s long-term strategy of anchoring high value industry clusters, investing in research and innovation, and strengthening structural competitiveness. Together, these measures provide a firm foundation for the property market across residential, industrial and commercial segments.

On the industrial front, the Government’s continued emphasis on anchoring high value industry clusters such as advanced semiconductor packaging, aerospace and biomedical sciences carries direct implications for space demand. These sectors require high specification facilities including cleanrooms, advanced manufacturing space and research laboratories.

A key highlight of Budget 2026 is the strengthening of One North as Singapore’s AI and innovation nucleus. The development of a larger AI park and the launch of national AI Missions across advanced manufacturing, connectivity, finance and healthcare signal a coordinated push to embed artificial intelligence across core economic sectors.

Within this evolving ecosystem, the upcoming Hudson Place Residences at Media Circle Parcel A is well positioned to benefit from One North’s continued expansion. Its proximity to research facilities, transport infrastructure, educational institutions and business parks situates it within a live work environment anchored by structural economic transformation rather than short term cyclical drivers.

Finally, Budget 2026 introduces broad based cost of living support across all HDB flat types, including cash payouts, GST Vouchers, MediSave and CPF top ups, CDC Vouchers, U Save rebates and S and CC rebates. These measures cushion household expenses, strengthen balance sheets and reinforce affordability within the housing ecosystem.

Overall, Budget 2026 signals policy continuity, economic resilience and calibrated growth. For the property market, the combination of structural economic transformation, disciplined supply management and household support measures points toward a stable and sustainable trajectory in 2026 and beyond.
