There is an upward movement currently with various properties located in different regions displaying their prices rising significantly. In particular, as of the year 2017, according to Private Home Index by Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) the properties located in Core Central Region (CCR) had increased at the start of the 3rd quarter by 0.1%. The land supply in Singapore is always limited. For those purchasing a property in CCR today, they will be able to expect the prices of the properties to increase in the future. This is due to the limited land supply which will in turn contribute to the high bidding price which in terms affect the capital gains and future prices.
729 residential units were translated in the CCR in 2017 first quarter, 1171 units in 2017 second quarter and 1470 units in 2017 third quarter according to the URA. These units mostly priced more than $5 million is on the rise since 2014 according to Sotheby’s International. The increase in sales attributed to the units being sought after not just the local residents but many foreigners such as the Indonesians, the Malaysians as well as the Chinese Nationals are becoming more interested to invest in properties here.
While currently is the down turn for the rental market, the units in the CCR has contributed to the lowest amount of the total vacancy rate. A main reason to the increase in vacancy rate is due to the oversupplying of residential units. In 2018 alone, there were more than 26,000 new non-landed private homes that are added to the overall market. This year the number will be higher. The income for rental has also dropped by 3.8% in the CCR and 5.6% in the Rest of Central Region (RCR). The reason for the higher drop for RCR is that homes in CCR are located strategically and will not be affected with new units adding to the overall market as rental demand for these properties are still high due to the great convenience.
Although residential units in CCR are higher in prices but the rental is also higher. The CCR properties has underwent tremendous tests and still going strong will make them ideal for purchasers who are looking for rental income as well.
Unlike those residential units outside the CCR, properties here are usually established branding which allow them to be in consistent with the rental market. Though higher in cost, these properties will be valuable assets as intended to be. The consistencies of residential units in the RCR or Outside Central Region (OCR) might not be as consistent.
Though those in the RCR and OCR might be lower in price, they are often affected by factors like high rate in vacancy and with more units added to these areas, the rental yield will even be lower. For those with holding power, investing in a unit in the CCR might make more sense. For any further details and information Contact Us or Send Email To Us.
