Property investment in Singapore hit a new 8-year high of $40 billion in 2025, driven by:
Easing interest rates
Strong Government Land Sales (GLS) participation
Surge in large commercial transactions

Key highlights:
• Commercial deals led the market at $17b
• Residential investments rose 20.8% YoY to $14.6b
• GLS sites worth $4.6b were awarded in Q4 alone
• Continued strong demand for income-generating assets
• Momentum expected to stay firm into 2026 (~$30b forecast)

Despite global uncertainties, Singapore continues to stand out as a safe, resilient investment hub—often dubbed the “Switzerland of the East.”

A strong signal of confidence for both investors and the property market going forward.

The bulk of the losses came from home ownership programmes, mainly the cost of building new BTO flats and housing grants. While the deficit dipped slightly from last year’s $6.78B, it still highlights the heavy subsidies and costs involved in keeping public housing affordable for Singaporeans.
