Singapore strata industrial transactions up 28% in 2Q2022: Savills
The consultancy claims that a local injection of investment into the market is likely if the external economy reduces, as local buyers as well as proprietors create need for prime multiple-industrial rooms and enable higher ability to suit new job orders.
Savills anticipates leas for multiple-user manufacturing facility rooms to boost between 10% and also 12% y-o-y for the whole of 2022.
“Transactions in this field are likely endorsed by local SMEs that got ramp-up facilities with modern-day specifications as well as sensible staying tenures for their very own company procedures,” claims Savills.
The report associates the higher pattern to the scarcity as well as consistent interest for business parks, specifically in Mapletree Business City, one-north, as well as the Labrador prime industrial locations.
According to a commercial property market statement by Savills Singapore, the local strata industrial sales project last quarter leapt 28% q-o-q to a total amount of 512 purchases. This is the highest q-o-q increase as 3Q2014, the consultancy says.

“The commercial and also logistics market continues to be one of one of the most resilient sub-asset courses throughout the real estate market,” says Alan Cheong, executive head of research, Singapore.
Although a slowdown in economic activity in 2H2022 was assumed to drag down industrial leas, SMEs’ requirement to stock up motivated them to tackle more area instead, hence supporting rents, states Cheong.
Elsewhere in the industrial market, prime service park monthly rents proceeded their upward pattern, rising 0.7% q-o-q in 2Q2022 to reach $5.93 psf. This is based on a basket of organization park-zoned areas kept an eye on by Savills.
