Q3 2022
                                    Executive Summary
            Sale Demand Index       Despite rising mortgage rates, Q2 2022 was a robust
            162.20 (-1.18%)         quarter, with the increased costs of borrowing having

            Sale Supply Index
                                    After a quiet first quarter, the non-landed private
            84.47 (1.02%)           property market seems to have recovered. New
                                    major condo launches in Q2 2022 were well-received,

            Rental Price Index
                                    Signs of an impending slowdown have been observed
            152.40 (4.94%)          for a while now. Prices in the HDB resale market
            Rental Supply Index
                                    maintained their upward trajectory as transaction
            46.74 (18.60%)          volumes declined. As the limited supply of larger flat
                                    types gradually dwindles and buyers become
                                    increasingly resistant to high asking prices, growth is
                                    expected to slow further.

                                    The already-thriving private property rental
                                    markets are expected to receive an even greater
                                    boost in the coming quarter as border controls relax
                                    and foreign talents return in droves.

                                    But construction delays in both public and private
                                    housing are gradually improving. The introduction of
                                    new units into the market will relieve the supply
                                    crunch, moderating rental growth.

                                    Likewise, the completion of the delayed BTO projects
                                    might mean a less robust HDB rental market in
                                    Q3 2022 as affected young families exit the HDB
                                    rental market. Still, singles and unmarried couples,
                                    alongside incoming foreign talent looking for more
                                    affordable properties, may keep HDB rental prices
                                    afloat.

HDB resale market prices
continued to make modest gains,
with signs of slowdown observed
as transaction volumes declined.
HDB rental prices recorded their
first dip in three years.

Private property sales have
recovered from the December
2021 property cooling measures,
with buying interest favouring
RCR properties.

Private property rental prices
remain red-hot, asking prices
registered spikes in anticipation
of returning expatriates.

Interest rates continue to rise, but
growing costs of financing
property unlikely to cool property
markets until actual mortgage
rates move past the current
safety margin rate of 3.5%.

Demand for investment property
remains resilient despite increased
ABSD rates. More foreigners are
investing in luxury and CCR
properties in the face of
macroeconomic uncertainties.

  In Q2 2022, the Singapore Property Sale Price Index picked up, recording a
  3.69% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) increase, compared to the 1.98% QoQ
  growth seen from Q4 2021 to Q1 2022.

  Prices in the HDB resale market continue to trend upwards as buyers
  continue to pursue larger, pricier flats and value space premiums. Although
  HDB resale flat prices have reached a new peak, signs of an oncoming
  slowdown have already been observed – transaction volumes are steadily
  declining and recorded gains are more modest than the previous year’s.

  Meanwhile, the non-landed private property market seems to have
  rebounded from the effects of the December 2021 property cooling
  measures. Buyers took well to the Q2 2022 launch offerings. With a lineup of
  attractive new projects in the upcoming quarter and resilient demand,
  prices show no signs of abating.

Asking price for HDB resale flats increase for
 16 straight quarters
  The median per square foot (PSF) sale prices for HDB resale flats listed on
  PropertyGuru Singapore increased 2.43% QoQ. This aligns with the HDB
  Resale Price Index for Q2 2022, which saw resale transaction prices rise by
  2.8% QoQ. This increase marks the sixteenth straight quarter of growth for
  asking prices.

  Prices look set to continue making small increments in the next quarter,
  despite the spreading sentiment that the average buyer is becoming more
  resistant towards and unwilling to match high asking prices.

  Aside from the young families unwilling to wait out long BTO completion
  times fuelling demand and the influx of flats that just fulfilled their
  Minimum Occupation Period (MOP) entering the resale market, prices
  remain propped up due to an enduring preference for larger HDB flat
  types.

  Buyers are mostly private property ‘downgraders’, or HDB upgraders
  willing to pay high Cash Over Valuation (COV) amounts for the dwindling
  supply of larger flats. Already, these larger flats command higher prices
  due to their size.

  Consequently, the first million-dollar flats were seen in Woodlands, Marine
  Parade and Pasir Ris in Q2 2022. As it is, the pace of million-dollar HDB flat
  transactions in 2022 has already surpassed that of 2021. If this momentum
  is sustained, we are looking at another record-breaking year, with more
  than 300 million-dollar flats transacted.

The rising mortgage rates appear to have little effect on the buying
  sentiment. Non-landed and landed private property saw asking prices
  increase by 4.78% and 3.53%, respectively, climbing for nine and 10 straight
  quarters.

  Strong uptake for new condominium launches boosted sales volume and
  prices in Q2 2022, especially in the Rest of Central Region (RCR). Major
  launches for the quarter – Piccadilly Grand and Liv @ MB – were well-
  received, selling 77% and 75% of their units, respectively, on their launch
  weekends. This reflects the pent-up demand for attractive projects with
  compelling sales attributes, such as having a city fringe location and being
  within walking distance of MRT stations and amenities.

  In the same vein, AMO Residence moved 98% of its units over its launch
  weekend in July 2022. If this is any indication of the quarter to come, we are
  looking at a robust Q3 2022.

  While price growth for landed properties is slowing, it is likely a reflection of
  the widening gap between buyers’ and sellers’ expectations, rather than a
  dip in demand. The finite stock of landed homes secures its status as a
  highly sought-after property class. Individuals who intend to buy landed
  property tend to make a purchase once they find a suitable property at an
  agreeable price.

       districts in Q2 2022, primarily due to
       the success of the Piccadilly Grand
       and Liv @ MB launches. While
       District 27 (Sembawang/Yishun) also
       appeared on the list, QoQ price
       growth was moderated due to the
       lower-than-expected number of

       The slowing OCR price growth
       observed in Q2 2022 was presumably                                      D2
       due       to     changing      work
       arrangements. As more return to the
       office, buyers may have turned their
       attention towards RCR properties in
       anticipation    of    daily    work
       commutes.

      As in previous quarters, prices climbed despite dipping transaction
      volumes. The top-performing estates for HDB resale flats by
      transaction volume remain unchanged, featuring HDB estates that
      contain the bulk of the newly MOP-ed flats.

      Young families, unwilling to wait out long BTO completion times,
      continue to enter the HDB resale market. With HDB resale flat prices
      at an all-time high, these buyers look towards homes in more wallet-
      friendly neighbourhoods.

      Districts and Projects to Watch
      While the RCR was the main price driver in Q2 2022, it is likely that
      prices in the Outside Central Region (OCR) will pick up in Q3 2022. As
      the buying preference for larger homes persists, buyers continue to
      look for homes in the OCR, where properties hit the sweet spot
      between size and price point.

      As it is, Bellewaters and The Vales, two Executive Condominiums (ECs)
      in Sengkang, which fulfilled their 5-year Minimum Occupation Period
      (MOP) this year, took the sixth and ninth spot on the list of top 10
      best-selling projects for the quarter.

      Aside from the launch of AMO
      Residence,       other      notable
      upcoming OCR launches include
      Sceneca       Residence,     Lentor
      Modern, and Sky Eden @ Bedok.
      Tengah Garden Residences EC
      and Tampines North EC are
      predicted to perform well too.
      These mass-market launches are
      likely to attract HDB upgraders
      and meet genuine occupier
      demand, bumping up prices for
      the districts they are situated in.

      Flush with cash, HDB upgraders
      who have sold their newly MOP-
      ed flats will either go for these
      upcoming new launches or the
      larger resale HDB flats in more                               Sceneca Residence
      attractive and expensive city-
      fringe neighbourhoods.

Singapore Property
  Rental Market Index

  The Rental Price Index inched upwards and is now at a 16-quarter high,
  while the Rental Demand and Supply Indices recorded a QoQ dip.

  When looking at the list of top performing non-landed private property
  rental projects by transaction volume, a preference towards properties in
  the RCR and Core Central Region (CCR) was observed. Properties near the
  Central Business District (CBD) and in areas traditionally favoured by
  expatriates saw an increased uptake.

  Correspondingly, the URA real estate statistics for Q2 2022 revealed that
  rental prices of non-landed properties in the Core Central Region (CCR)
  increased 7.7% in Q2 2022, as compared to 3.8% in Q1 2022 – the biggest
  QoQ price growth difference among the different regions.

Singapore Property Market Report Q3 2022 – Powered by PropertyGuru DataSense
Price and demand for HDB rental market dips for
  the first time in three years
  Median asking prices for HDB rental properties listed on PropertyGuru
  recorded the first QoQ dip in three years (following the introduction of the
  PropertyGuru Rental Price Index). While the 0.95% QoQ change is modest,
  this is perhaps a sign that the HDB rental market is finally slowing down.

  In the past quarter, more young families have collected their keys to their
  BTO flats. As the BTO flat supply moves towards being restored and
  construction delays alleviated, demand and prices for HDB rental flats will
  gradually abate.

  Nonetheless, singles and unmarried couples seeking space and privacy
  continue to rent. Foreigner talents looking for more affordable rental
  options will also contribute to keeping the HDB rental market buoyant.

  Surge in rental prices for private property brought
  on by low residential vacancy rates and returning
  expatriates
  Expatriates are returning to the city-state and renting private properties
  in droves. In anticipation of these returning expatriates, sharp spikes in
  asking prices for both non-landed and landed private property rental units
  on PropertyGuru have been observed.

  Median PSF asking prices of listed rental units for non-landed private
  property grew 8.89% QoQ from Q1 2022 to Q2 2022, compared to the 6.40%
  growth recorded from Q4 2021 to Q1 2022. Landed private property asking
  prices shot up 15.30% QoQ from Q1 2022 to Q2 2022, a huge leap from the
  4.04% increase seen from Q4 2021 to Q1 2022.

  Consequently, these higher asking prices could translate to greater rental
  price growth in Q3 2022. In the short term, the tight rental supply and low
  residential vacancy rates create a ripe formula for enduring rental price
  growth in the private property markets. That said, more projects are
  expected to reach completion in 2023 and improve vacancy rates. This may
  help to moderate said growth.

        *Calculated based on median rental and sale transaction prices in Q2 2022, accurate as of 29 July 2022.

       The top performing districts by rental yield for private property saw
       a reshuffle, with CCR districts completely knocked off the list and
       OCR districts taking four out of five spots. It is worth noting
       properties in these districts situated further from the city centre
       tend to be purchased at a lower price, which likely contributes to the
       higher rental yield.

       Nevertheless, rental properties across Singapore continue to be in
       high demand. When examining the list of top performing non-
       landed private property rental projects, based on the number of
       converted sessions from PropertyGuru listings*, CCR properties have
       made a reappearance after two quarters of absence, thanks to the
       foreign talent returning to the city.

       Locals primarily lean toward projects which afford them
       connectivity and larger living spaces, typically in the OCR. All
       favoured property rentals are within a 10-minute walk of an MRT
       station.
       *A converted session is when a user visits the listing page and moves on to enquire about the listing.

        *Calculated based on median rental and sale transaction prices in Q2 2022, accurate as of 29 July 2022.

      As in previous quarters, mature HDB estates command the highest
      rental yield percentages. Bedok and Geylang moved up a few spots
      to tie as the top performing HDB estates by rental yield. Marine
      Parade makes a return to the list, after having been replaced by
      Geylang in Q1 2022.

      Resale and rental prices have risen significantly in these
      neighbourhoods. However, many still seek to rent in these HDB
      estates as they strike a good balance between connectivity, nearby
      amenities, and cost.

      The local preference for HDB rental locations remains unchanged.
      The top performing HDB street addresses, based on the number of
      converted sessions from PropertyGuru listings, are in Ang Mo Kio,
      Clementi, Toa Payoh, Bedok, Tampines, Jurong, and Yishun.

Conclusion
   In Q2 2022, the non-landed private property market made a sharp
   recovery from the latest property cooling measures implemented on 16
   December 2021. Prices and demand have stayed resilient and are expected
   to remain so in Q3 2022, on the back of attractive upcoming new launches.

   The robust sales have sparked discussions of new cooling measures being
   introduced before the year draws to a close.

          Should private home prices see sustained double-digit percentage
          growth in the coming quarters, the government may intervene. If that
          happens, it would be the first time two rounds of property curbs are
          implemented in such a short period. More cooling measures will
          probably be the last resort, as the government has already made
          moves to cool the market in the medium-term by increasing the
          housing supply.

          Dr. Tan Tee Khoon
          Country Manager, PropertyGuru Singapore

   As property prices and bank interest rates continue to climb,
   conversations surrounding affordability have begun to pick up. In
   response, some developers are considering bringing forward launch dates.
   That said, there may not actually be a need to do so, as rising mortgage
   rates may not necessarily dampen buying.

   ‘Genuine’ homebuyers seeking to buy an own-stay property will still go
   ahead with the purchase despite the higher costs of financing. To keep
   within their budget, buyers may simply right-size their property purchase
   and go for smaller properties or more affordable properties on lower
   floors.

About This Report
  Buying a home is one of the most difficult decisions of our lives. It is also likely to be
  the most expensive decision. When committing to a home purchase, it is important to
  be equipped with relevant and sufficient information so that the decision can be made
  confidently.

  PropertyGuru wants to simplify this process for property seekers, including first-time
  homebuyers and existing homeowners who might be looking into buying their second
  or third properties. In that vein, we created this report to help Singaporeans
  understand the movement of the property market better, so that property buyers can
  gain greater insight on current price trends that are in line with market sentiments,
  and to try to time their property purchases better.

  As a leader in the real estate market in Singapore, PropertyGuru processes a vast
  amount of property data daily and delivers in-depth insights to all home seekers.

  In this report, we look at pricing, demand and supply indices of residential properties
  in Singapore, in various locations, and across different property types, to provide a
  comprehensive overview of property market dynamics across the city-state.

  Methodology
  Using a range of statistical techniques, the data from over 600,000 HDB flat and
  private home listings on PropertyGuru Singapore is aggregated and indexed for the
  quarterly Singapore Property Market Report – Powered by PropertyGuru DataSense.
  The report presents three main indices – the Price Index, Supply Index, and Demand
  Index, for both the sales and rental markets. This enables us to draw meaningful
  insights on Singapore's residential property market, based on the price fluctuations
  and supply-demand trends.

  The Price Index is indicative of sellers' optimism, based on the prices on PropertyGuru
  Singapore that developers and homeowners feel that they can get for their respective
  properties. This is complemented by the Supply Index, which provides a view of supply
  volumes in the market through the number of new launches and resale property
  listings on the platform. The responsiveness of home buyers and tenants to the Price
  and Supply Indices is shown in the Demand Index, which represents the proportion of
  interested property seekers for homes listed.

  From the Singapore Property Market Report Q1 2022 onwards, the Price, Supply and
  Demand Indices will use Q1 2018 as the base quarter. Prior to that, the PropertyGuru
  Singapore Property Market Index was computed using a different methodology, with
  Q4 2016 as the base quarter. Powered by PropertyGuru DataSense, the Singapore
  Property Market Report is further enriched by utilising historical property transaction
  data.
