Singapore commercial property deals on track to hit record in 2026

Singapore’s commercial real estate market is on track for a record year, with US$10.3 billion of deals completed in the first half of 2026, said global index provider MSCI. Another US$6 billion of transactions is in the pipeline, MSCI’s latest Asia Pacific Capital Trends quarterly report showed. If completed, the deals would push full-year volume past the previous record of US$13.1 billion set in 2019.

Singapore raises 2026 growth forecast to 4.5-5.5%; Q2 growth revised up to 5.9%

The government has upgraded its 2026 economic growth forecast for Singapore to a range of 4.5 to 5.5 per cent – up from the previous forecast of 2 to 4 per cent – as an accelerating global boom in artificial intelligence investment lifts the trade-reliant economy’s prospects for the rest of the year. The revision, announced by the Ministry of Trade and Industry (MTI) on Tuesday (Aug 11) morning, comes on the back of a better-than-expected first half of 2026, during which the economy expanded 6.1 per cent year on year.

Lower consent hurdle among changes proposed for en bloc sales to spur redevelopment, protect minority owners

A slew of changes designed to nudge along collective sales of ageing properties are on the cards, with the government on Tuesday (Aug 4) proposing amendments to the Land Titles (Strata) Act. A key hurdle at the start of the en bloc sale process – the consent threshold needed to proceed – could go down to as low as 65 per cent for developments that are more than 60 years old. Developments that are between 40 and 59 years old will need at least 70 per cent of owners to agree to go ahead, a level lower than the current 80 per cent.

The Bill also proposes to extend collective sale regime to large older government-built developments such as Neptune Court Read more at The Business Times.

Residential en bloc sales get nudge with extended ABSD deadline, but pricing still a big hurdle

A longer runway for construction and sales of mega en bloc redevelopments will put large collective sale sites back on developers’ radar, but price – not time – will still make or break deals, property players said. Starting Wednesday (Jul 29), developers of large en bloc sites yielding at least 700 new homes will have a critical sales deadline extended by one year. This will give them six years to complete construction and sell all units before they have to fork out a hefty additional buyer’s stamp duty (ABSD) payment on the cost of the land.

Property players say move is a ‘long time coming’ though it may not necessarily translate to more sites being sold Read more at The Business Times.

MAS chief flags AI investment boom as key risk to global financial stability

The sustainability of the artificial intelligence investment boom has become a key area of risk for global growth and financial stability, said Chia Der Jiun, managing director of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS). This comes as global growth, investment and financial market performance have become highly dependent on projections of large and increasing investment in data centres and semiconductor chips, especially in the US and in semiconductor-exporting Asian economies, Chia said at the release of MAS’ annual report on Tuesday (Jul 28).

Stricter rules for property agents to raise standards, reduce fake listings, clarify commissions

Property agents will soon have to complete at least three transactions over three years, or pass a refresher examination, to remain registered under new rules aimed at improving transparency and raising standards in Singapore’s real estate agency industry. The authorities are also exploring additional measures to ensure more clarity on commissions and reduce the prevalence of inaccurate, fake or unauthorised property listings.

These include minimum deal requirements for agents, longer licence and registration validity and collection of commission data Read more at The Business Times.

15-month wait-out curb lifted for private property owners buying HDB resale flats

The government will lift a 15-month wait-out period imposed on private property owners looking to buy an HDB flat in the resale market, a market restriction rolled out in 2022 as prices in the public housing market rocketed up. The wait-out period was aimed at moderating demand for Housing Development Board flats in the resale market to keep them affordable, especially for first-time home buyers.

ABSD deadline extended to up to 7 years for developers of large en bloc sites to encourage reuse of land

The government will extend a critical sales timeline for developers of large en bloc sites to up to seven years, a move expected to give a boost to collective sale land deals often stalled by viability concerns. At the Singapore Economic Conference on Tuesday (Jul 28), National Development Minister Chee Hong Tat announced that starting tomorrow, large en bloc redevelopments of at least 700 units will have their critical sales deadline extended by one year, from the previous six months, giving them six years to complete construction and sell all units.

The 15-month wait-out in the HDB resale market for private property owners is also lifted, as the market has cooled Read more at The Business Times.

Mortgagee-sale listings hit six-year high in H1 2026 as financing conditions tighten

[Mortgagee-sale listings in Singapore’s property auction market climbed to a nearly seven-year high in the first half of 2026 amid tighter financing conditions, an ETC report released on Monday (Jul 27) showed. ETC recorded 216 mortgagee-sale listings in H1 this year, the highest level since 2019, when 321 listings were reported in the second half. The H1 2026 tally was up 31 per cent from 165 in the preceding six-month period, and 29 per cent from 168 in H1 2025.

Analysts expect auction activity to stay resilient in H2, particularly in the residential and industrial segments Read more at The Business Times.
