Methodology

We compile data from publicly available URA, JTC, SLA and data.gov.sg releases. Figures are rounded for readability and compared against prior periods where applicable. Please note that each agency reports with different classification rules and release schedules, so not all series line up perfectly.

  • Price and rental indices are aggregate measures and may not reflect individual buildings or units.
  • Transaction counts depend on caveat lodgement timing; some deals are reported after completion or may be revised.
  • Notable transactions are selected from reported caveats, business news and agency records, then verified where possible.
  • Data is current as of the latest available release and is subject to revision.

Transaction Activity

Caveat-based sales and leasing volume across office, retail, shophouse, B1 and B2 industrial segments.

Segment Period Number of Transactions Median Price Notes
Office Latest available period — — Placeholder pending URA caveat verification.
Retail Latest available period — — Placeholder pending URA caveat verification.
Shophouse Latest available period — — Placeholder pending URA caveat verification.
B1 Industrial Latest available period — — Placeholder pending JTC / URA verification.
B2 Industrial Latest available period — — Placeholder pending JTC / URA verification.

Transaction volumes are reported as placeholders. When verified, an upward trend may indicate stronger investor confidence, while a slowdown can reflect tighter credit conditions, supply delays or a wait-and-see approach from buyers.

Limitation: Not all transactions are captured immediately; caveats may be lodged after completion, and some strata or bulk deals are reported differently.

What This Means for Buyers, Sellers and Landlords

Buyers / Investors

Wait for verified data before committing. Compare asking prices against recent caveats, account for stamp duty, financing costs and renovation needs, and stress-test your yield assumptions under different interest-rate scenarios.

Sellers

Price based on actual transactions, not listing prices. Factor in likely market exposure time, condition premiums or discounts, and whether current financing costs are narrowing the buyer pool.

Landlords / Tenants

Understand gross versus net effective rents, incentives, fit-out contributions and lease structures. Review renewal options, rent-review clauses and service-charge escalations before signing.

Market Update FAQs

How often is this market update published?

Monthly, after official data releases from URA, JTC, SLA and data.gov.sg are reviewed.

Where does the data come from?

URA, JTC, SLA and data.gov.sg. Each source covers different aspects of Singapore's commercial and industrial property market.

No. Transaction figures depend on caveat lodgement and reporting lag. Some deals may be reported after completion, and revisions can occur.

Can I rely on the indices to value a specific property?
