Moving forward, the challenging global macro-economic environment and sharply rising interest rates could take a toll on overall investor sentiment and investment volumes. However, prices in the luxury residential market could remain firm as investors continue to view Singapore favourably as a safe haven amid geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties.
CBRE Research expects interest in luxury apartments and Sentosa Cove bungalows to remain resilient in 2022, supported by the return of international travel to pre-pandemic levels and investor confidence in Singapore’s property market.
