Property Insight

Singapore's luxury property market enters 2024 as a beacon of resilience and exclusivity,continuing to draw high-net-worth individuals with its offer of exceptional quality and prestige despite economic shifts and property cooling measures. The Core Central Region(CCR), in particular, has been a hub of activity with an estimated 3,491 units transacted in2023, including 1,448 new home sales and 2,043 resale transactions. This robust activity underlines the segment's allure amid broader macroeconomic challenges and restrictive property measures.

Looking forward, 2024 promises an exciting phase for the CCR with several high-profile launches anticipated, including The Cairnhill, Marina View Residences, Skywater Residences, Newport Residences, and One Leonie Residences. The scarcity of recent launches in the CCR has led to pent-up demand, poised to drive healthy interest from both buyers and investors. Projections for private home transactions are optimistic, with estimates ranging between 3,500 to 4,000 units, reflecting a positive outlook for the luxury property market.

Leedon Green emerged as the best-selling new project launched in the CCR over the first 11 months, moving 131 units at a median price of $2,942 per square foot, signaling sustained interest in premium residences. The luxury market also saw significant transactions, with at least 36 resale condos exceeding the $10 million mark, including a notable sale atGoodwood Residence for $32.0 million. Such transactions underscore the enduring appeal of ultra-luxury condos, tailored to a niche clientele with distinctive tastes and the financial means to pursue such investments.

2024 also heralds the arrival of Skywater Residences, set to become Singapore's tallest building and home to its highest residence. This development is expected to captivate those seeking an unparalleled residential experience, offering luxurious living at new heights with breathtaking views across the Central Business District (CBD). Skywater Residences Epitomizes the trend towards iconic, luxury living spaces that define the city's skyline,blending opulence with a unique residential experience.

Singapore's luxury property market thus stands on the cusp of a transformative year, with demand for high-end residential spaces expected to remain strong. The market's resilience,driven by a combination of local appeal and international interest, positions it for sustained growth and dynamism. As developers ready themselves for a year of significant launches,the luxury property segment is poised to offer new opportunities for discerning buyers and investors, reinforcing Singapore's status as a premier destination for luxury real estate

Commentary on Latest Annoucements

Singapore’s latest housing measures represent a calibrated easing of selected market constraints while retaining safeguards against speculative demand, affordability pressures and delayed project delivery. The two key changes are the removal of the 15-month wait-out period for certain HDB resale buyers and longer Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty redevelopment timelines for qualifying large and mega en bloc sites. 

With immediate effect, private residential property owners and former owners may purchase a non-subsidised HDB resale flat without waiting 15 months, provided they do not use an HDB housing loan. Eligible buyers must still obtain an HDB Flat Eligibility letter and dispose of any private property in Singapore or overseas within six months of completing the resale-flat purchase. The 30-month wait-out period remains applicable to subsidised HDB flats, executive condominiums purchased from developers and buyers using an HDB housing loan.

The easing restores housing mobility for genuine owner-occupier right-sizers and households undergoing retirement, employment changes, divorce or financial pressure. It removes the need for an extended temporary accommodation period while preserving important eligibility and financing controls.

The policy change comes as HDB resale price momentum has moderated. Resale prices declined by 0.4% in the first half of 2026, the first first-half contraction since 2019. Larger-flat resale volumes have also eased from recent peaks. This suggests that the market has become more balanced following pandemic-era price gains, successive cooling measures and an expansion in housing supply.

The second measure provides longer redevelopment and sales periods for qualifying en bloc sites acquired from 29 July 2026. Large sites with 700 to 1,399 units will receive six years to complete and sell their projects, while mega sites with at least 1,400 units will receive seven years. Mega projects must still sell at least 50% of their units by the end of Year 6, while the 2.5-year construction commencement deadline remains unchanged.

GLS Commentary - Tender Results on Chitty Road and Veerasamy Road

The tender for the Chitty Road and Veerasamy Road Government Land Sales site attracted seven bids, with YK Land Pte. Ltd., linked to Soon Hock Group, submitting the highest offer of $35.3 million. The bid translates to approximately $962 per square foot of site area and was substantially higher than the second-ranked bid of $23.8 million, or $650 per square foot, submitted by Conint Pte Ltd and SEEDoE Ventures Pte Ltd. RPC One Pte Ltd placed third with a bid of $23.7 million. 

The site benefits from strong accessibility and a central location. It is within walking distance of Jalan Besar and Little India MRT stations, while Bugis, Rochor and the Central Business District are also nearby. Opportunities to acquire an entire cluster of conserved residential buildings in Singapore’s Central Area are exceptionally rare, giving the project the potential to become a distinctive heritage residential development.

Under the SA2 option, the site may accommodate up to 36 serviced apartment units with a minimum stay of three months. This could appeal to professionals, expatriates and other residents seeking medium- to longer-term accommodation. The higher unit yield may also offer the developer recurring rental income and greater operational flexibility.

Alternatively, the site could be developed into up to 18 strata landed houses, subject to approval. This option may appeal to affluent owner-occupiers and collectors seeking rare, restored heritage homes within a city-fringe location. With few new landed developments entering the market, the combination of conservation architecture and modern residential use could create a highly differentiated product.

The development’s value creation potential will depend less on maximising density and more on delivering a high-quality restoration. The investment proposition is therefore centred on placemaking, heritage preservation and product differentiation. The site may also benefit from the wider transformation of the surrounding precinct, including continued public investment and the nearby River Peaks I and II public housing developments.

2Q2026 Singapore Residential Market Report: Resilient Demand Despite Global Uncertainty

Singapore's private residential market remained resilient in 2Q2026, supported by healthy buyer demand despite a gradual moderation in price growth. New home sales (excluding Executive Condominiums) increased to 2,141 units, representing a 6.4% quarter-on-quarter increase from 2,013 units in 1Q2026. The improvement was driven primarily by strong demand within the Outside Central Region (OCR) and Rest of Central Region (RCR), which more than offset slower sales in the Core Central Region (CCR). Well-priced projects such as Tengah Garden Residences, Vela Bay, and Hudson Place Residences attracted strong interest from HDB upgraders and owner-occupiers, reflecting continued preference for city fringe and suburban developments offering better affordability and value. 

The resale private residential market also strengthened during the quarter, with transactions rising from 3,225 units to 3,813 units, representing an 18.2% increase from the previous quarter. Growth was broad-based across all market segments, with the OCR continuing to account for the largest share of resale activity due to its relatively affordable pricing, established residential estates and wider selection of family-oriented housing. The increase in completed developments over recent years has expanded resale supply, providing buyers with greater choice while supporting a more balanced and orderly market. 

Private residential prices continued to increase during the first half of 2026, although growth moderated. Prices rose 1.4% in 1H2026, compared with 1.8% in 1H2025, reflecting a market transitioning towards a more sustainable pace of appreciation. The moderation is attributed to the Government's sustained expansion of housing supply through the Government Land Sales programme and the increasing completion of residential developments, which have widened housing options and reduced upward price pressures. 

Looking ahead, market activity is expected to remain supported by a healthy pipeline of new launches, including Dunearn House, Thomson Reserve, and Lucerne Grand. The successful launch of Lentor Gardens Residences demonstrates that buyer demand remains healthy for well-located and appropriately priced developments. Although global uncertainties, including interest rate expectations, geopolitical tensions and new trade tariffs, may encourage buyers to adopt a more measured approach, Singapore's strong economic fundamentals and transparent regulatory framework are expected to continue supporting market confidence.
