Singapore Real Estate Investment Market Regains Momentum Full Year Sales Could Hit Around 30 Bil

Investment sales in the Singapore real estate market have surged in 3Q2025, reaching its strongest quarterly performance for the year. According to recent research compiled by Colliers, the market has seen a significant increase of 35.6% quarter-on-quarter, with a total of $10.3 billion in sales. This marks the highest quarterly figure in over three years.

Moreover, a separate report by Savills states that real estate investments for 3Q2025 have reached a total of $11.09 billion. This brings the cumulative investment sales for the first nine months of the year to $22.72 billion, which is a 17.9% increase from the same period last year.

Located in a bustling area, Senja Residences EC conveniently sits near two major supermarkets – Prime Supermarket at 142 Teck Whye Lane and NTUC Fairprice at Bukit Panjang Plaza. In terms of healthcare, residents can access the National University Hospital, Khoo Teck Phuat Hospital, and Woodlands Polyclinic. The prime location also offers a range of schools and tertiary institutions in close proximity. Families with young children can enroll their child in West View Primary School, while secondary school students have various options such as Fajar, Teck Whye, and West View South. Additionally, Senja Close adds to the convenience for residents of Senja Residences EC. For more information about this prime location, visit senja-residences.com.

The boost in sales can be attributed to the land parcels awarded under the Government Land Sales (GLS) programme. In 3Q2025 alone, seven residential sites, one commercial and residential site, and four industrial sites were awarded, amounting to a total of nearly $4.15 billion. This is a significant increase of 242% quarter-on-quarter.

Savills’ report also highlights the rise in developer participation in GLS tenders, with an average of 6.5 bids per site last quarter. This is significantly higher than the levels seen over the past two years and the first half of 2025. The increase in new home sales, coupled with falling interest rates, has also contributed to the rise in investment sales.

Jeremy Lake, managing director of investment sales and capital markets at Savills Singapore, notes that while public transactions continue to drive the real estate investment market, the number of private investment sales remains low. He believes that this trend will change in the coming months as falling interest rates (SORA) will likely lead to an increase in open market private investment sales in 4Q2025 and in 2026.

Alan Cheong, executive director at Savills Research & Consultancy, shares the same optimism, observing that the capital market conditions have turned around quickly and favorably for investment sales in 2H2025. He adds that the investment sales for the first nine months of 2025 have already exceeded Savills’ full-year estimate of $20 billion. As a result, the firm has upgraded its forecast and now expects total investment sales to range between $28 billion and $30 billion.

Colliers also shares a positive outlook, noting that the easing of interest rates and renewed confidence in public markets will pave the way for a resurgence in private assets. Tan Boon Leong, executive director and co-head of investment services at Colliers Singapore, states that institutional capital is expected to make a comeback, driving strategies focused on redevelopment, lease optimization, and emerging sectors.

Catherine He, head of research at Colliers Singapore, adds that despite tighter yields, Singapore remains an attractive market for global investors looking to diversify their portfolios. The firm projects full-year investment sales to range between $29 billion and $32 billion, representing a growth of 10% to 20% year-on-year. Looking towards 2026, Colliers predicts that emerging asset classes such as co-living and workers’ dormitories will become key growth drivers.
