Abstract: The Singapore real estate market is currently undergoing a significant adjustment phase. While high interest rates and policy regulations have impacted the market, its fundamentals and long-term outlook remain robust.

In recent years, the Singapore real estate market has faced multiple challenges and changes, leading to fluctuations in prices and sales volumes. The latest data indicates that Singapore housing prices have dropped to their lowest levels in a decade, reflecting weak market demand and the effects of policy regulations. This series of dynamics adds uncertainty to the future direction of the market.


Firstly, new home sales in Singapore have declined for the second consecutive month, indicating weak market demand. In May 2024, only 221 new homes were sold in Singapore, a 27% decrease from April's 301 units, and a significant 79% drop compared to the same period last year. This sales data suggests that the sales volume for the first half of the year is expected to reach its lowest level in over a decade. Weak market demand is one of the main reasons for the decline in housing prices.


A key factor contributing to this phenomenon is high interest rates and government cooling measures. In recent years, the Singapore government has implemented a series of policy regulations aimed at preventing the real estate market from overheating and ensuring its stability and sustainability. These measures include raising loan interest rates for homebuyers, tightening loan approvals, and restricting speculative home purchases. While these policies have good intentions, they have somewhat suppressed market demand, leading to a decline in new home sales.


In the coming quarters, a significant supply of new homes is expected to enter the Singapore market. This is an important measure by the government to address housing affordability issues. By increasing housing supply, the government hopes to balance market supply and demand and stabilize housing prices. However, in the short term, the market may face greater pressure due to the increased supply.

Despite the overall decline in sales volume, housing prices in Singapore remain high. According to the latest data, private residential prices have risen for three consecutive quarters. This indicates that the high-end market remains active, especially in some luxury property projects. For example, an undisclosed foreign buyer purchased a luxury apartment in the Skywaters Residences project for as much as SGD 47.3 million (approximately RMB 250 million). The continued occurrence of such high-end transactions demonstrates strong demand for luxury properties in the market.


Looking ahead, the outlook for the Singapore real estate market remains positive. Despite current challenges, the market fundamentals remain solid. It is expected that by 2024, the scale of the Singapore residential real estate market will reach USD 46.58 billion, and by 2029, this figure will increase to USD 64.04 billion, with a compound annual growth rate of about 6.57%. Investors remain optimistic about the Singapore real estate market, particularly driven by demand for affordable housing projects and logistics/industrial real estate, showcasing the market's diversity and vitality.


However, the market remains cautious about the future. The sales volume forecast for 2024 has been adjusted to less than 7,000 units, below previous predictions. This reflects the market's cautious stance towards interest rates and government policies. Unless interest rates decline or government policies are relaxed, the prospects for market recovery may face certain challenges.


Overall, although the Singapore real estate market is facing some pressure and adjustments, its long-term development prospects remain promising. Policy adjustments and market reactions will determine the market's direction in the coming years. As the government continues to ensure housing affordability and market stability, the Singapore real estate market is expected to attract more investors and buyers. Policymakers need to strike a balance between market regulation and promoting market vitality to ensure the healthy development of the real estate market.
