Modest Growth in New Home Sales

In June 2024, new home sales in Singapore showed a modest growth of 2.2% month-over-month, with 228 units sold, up from 223 in May. The majority of these sales occurred in the Outside Central Region (OCR), which accounted for 57.9% of the total sales. Notable developments contributing to this increase included The Lakegarden Residences, The Botany at Dairy Farm, Hillhaven, Lentor Hills Residences, and Hillock Green. The Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Core Central Region (CCR) followed, contributing 31.1% and 11.0% to the total sales, respectively.

Increased Interest in RCR

The RCR segment saw a significant 34.0% increase in sales from May to June, rising from 53 to 71 units. This growth was driven by developments such as Tembusu Grand, Pinetree Hill, The Continuum, The Landmark, and Grand Dunman. The limited new launches and smaller-sized developments in the first half of 2024 helped sustain interest in these properties, showcasing their lasting appeal.

Best-Selling Projects

The best-selling projects in June highlighted the competitive clustering effect, where developments launched in close proximity can boost each other's sales. The Lakegarden Residences led the sales with 23 units at a median price of $2,119 per square foot (psf). Other top performers included The Botany at Dairy Farm (21 units at $1,979 psf), Hillhaven (18 units at $2,124 psf), and Lentor Hills Residences (14 units at $2,104 psf). This phenomenon is similar to the retail strategy where stores like Watsons and Guardian are located near each other to maximize foot traffic.

Luxury Condo Sales in CCR

Luxury condominium sales in the CCR remained robust, with a notable transaction involving a 4-bedroom unit at Midtown Modern, which sold for $6.7 million ($3,698 psf). The first half of 2024 saw seven new launch condominiums surpass the $10 million mark, consistent with the same period in 2023. Developments such as Skywaters Residences, 32 Gilstead, and Watten House led these high-value transactions, reflecting sustained interest in luxury real estate driven by prime locations, exceptional design, and top-tier amenities.

Upcoming Launches

The second half of 2024 is expected to see a resurgence in market interest with several new property launches. These include Emerald of Katong, The Chuan Park, One Sophia, and Aurea. These fresh offerings are anticipated to generate significant interest due to their unique characteristics and prime locations, rejuvenating the real estate scene after a period of limited new launches.

Conclusion

June 2024's developer sales insights highlight a steady growth in new home sales, driven primarily by the OCR segment. The RCR showed significant sales growth due to sustained interest in key developments. The luxury segment in the CCR continued to attract high-value transactions, reflecting the enduring appeal of prime properties. Looking ahead, the market is poised for rejuvenation with several exciting new launches anticipated in the second half of 2024. Developers and buyers alike can leverage strategic location and timing to capitalize on market dynamics and growth opportunities.

Singapore Shophouse Market 1H2026: Higher Value Deals Drive Investment Growth

Singapore's shophouse market in 1H2026 demonstrated continued resilience despite a moderation in transaction volumes, with investment activity increasingly concentrated in higher-value assets. While the number of caveated shophouse transactions declined from 34 deals in 1H2025 to 25 deals in 1H2026, the total transaction value increased by 14.9% year-on-year, rising from $234.7 million to $269.5 million. This suggests that investors remained willing to deploy significant capital into larger, well-located and higher-quality conservation assets, reinforcing confidence in the long-term fundamentals of the shophouse sector.

Investor preference continued to favour longer-tenure properties. Freehold shophouses accounted for 76.0% of total transaction value in 1H2026, broadly unchanged from the previous year, while transaction value within this segment increased substantially from $176.7 million to $224.0 million. Although 99-year leasehold properties recorded a higher share of overall transactions compared to a year ago, demand remained firmly concentrated in freehold and 999-year leasehold assets, which together represented 84.0% of total transaction value. This reflects continued demand for scarce commercial assets that offer long-term capital preservation, stable rental income and limited exposure to lease decay.

Looking ahead, investment demand is expected to remain resilient through the second half of 2026, supported by Singapore's healthy economic performance, lower interest rate environment and the structural scarcity of conserved shophouses. Investors are likely to continue prioritising well-located assets offering resilient rental income, asset enhancement opportunities and long-term capital appreciation. The combination of limited supply, heritage value and stable income-generating potential is expected to provide continued support for transaction values and reinforce the long-term attractiveness of Singapore's shophouse market.

Berlayar Drive GLS Attracts Sole Top Bid of $576.8 Million

The Berlayar Drive Government Land Sales site attracted a sole bid of $576.8 million, equivalent to $1,515 per square foot per plot ratio, from a joint venture between Intrepid Investments Pte. Ltd. and GuocoLand (Singapore) Pte. Ltd. The bid underscores the developers’ continued conviction in the long-term potential of the Greater Southern Waterfront and their commitment to establishing a presence within one of Singapore’s most significant waterfront transformation precincts. 

Although the site received only one bid, this should not necessarily be interpreted as weak confidence in its prospects. Instead, it reflects increasingly disciplined land-acquisition strategies amid a larger GLS pipeline and more selective capital deployment. With a wider range of sites available, developers are likely to prioritise parcels that best complement their existing landbanks, development pipelines and risk profiles.

Berlayar Drive is the second private residential parcel within the new estate, following the Telok Blangah Road site. A further residential parcel at Berlayar Close is expected to be launched in December. This phased release reflects the Government’s measured approach to developing the Greater Southern Waterfront, allowing future housing supply to be introduced progressively rather than all at once.

The Berlayar Drive site is expected to yield approximately 415 residential units. Its smaller project scale should require a lower upfront capital commitment and reduce construction, financing and market-absorption risks compared with larger developments. The site also carries a maximum building height of five storeys, creating the potential for a distinctive low-rise residential offering focused on privacy, greenery and resort-style living.

Future residents are expected to benefit from proximity to Telok Blangah MRT station, VivoCity, Sentosa, the Southern Ridges and Labrador Nature Reserve. This combination of connectivity, retail and lifestyle amenities, waterfront surroundings and access to nature is likely to support healthy long-term owner-occupier demand.

Chitty Road and Veerasamy Road GLS Tender Draws $35.3 Million Top Bid

The tender for the Chitty Road and Veerasamy Road Government Land Sales site attracted seven bids, with YK Land Pte. Ltd 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.
