Within the same month, we claimed the third en bloc sale of 2017, with Rio Casa, which transacted for over half a billion dollars. There has been much development in the Singapore real estate market of late. Local and international developers have been moving quickly to replenish their land banks through Government Land Sales, collective sales and land acquisitions, with more than half of such bids coming from foreign developers. The month of May also saw the highest bid price of over S$1 billion for a residential government site tender in Stirling Road. Yet, with the buzz surrounding the residential property market, residential property prices have witnessed an average drop of 3.1% quarter-on- quarter (q-o-q) in Q1 2017, with average gross rental yields across the market slipping to 3.2% in the same quarter from 3.3% in Q4 2016. Looking ahead, we anticipate prices island-wide to drop further and sales volume for the year to fall between 8,000 to 9,000 units. On the back of an improving global economic and trade outlook, the office market registered the lowest quarterly decline in a quarter for Grade A+ and A office buildings in the last five quarters, showing signs that the office market is starting to bottom out. Should the momentum continue towards the end of the year, office rents of prime grade spaces are likely to dip by 2% to 3% year-on-year (y-o-y) by Q4 2017, making the next two quarters the final window for tenants to benefit from lower rents and new available spaces. Over the last two years, technology firms and co-working centres have become major occupiers, taking advantage of lower rents to increase their foot print and taking up sizable units within Grade A+ office buildings. While the manufacturing industry is showing signs of growth of 8% in Q1 2017, industrial rents in all areas except the Bukit Merah, Alexandra and Jalan Kilang clusters experienced a 2% q-o-q drop. Business park rents however, maintained at $4.25 psf pm despite lower leasing activities in the first quarter of the year. We foresee average rents and prices for leasehold properties to fall by 5% to 8% by the last quarter this year. In the first quarter of 2017, rents of prime retail spaces across the island dipped 1.4% y-o-y, with the Marina Square, City Hall and Bugis precincts dropping a 3.7% y-o-y as landlords compete to offer attractive rental packages to draw retailers. Uncertain market sentiment, weak retail spending, rising business costs and manpower shortages are just some of the challenges faced by both landlords and retailers alike. Suburban malls are seeing a 2.1% y-o-y fall as some continue to grapple with weak patronage and finding the right retail trade mix. With the onslaught of major e-tailers set to grow their online presence in Singapore, we urge brick-and-mortar retailers to revisit their business strategy so as to engage, retain and attract consumers.
