Property investment sales are deals worth at least $5 million.<br \/>\nColliers noted that residential investment sales jumped 60.7 percent to $8.2 billion on an annual basis thanks to strong en bloc activity, with collective sales contributing almost half of the investment sale volume in the second quarter. Consequently, residential investment sales in 1H 2018 reached $17.3 billion, or the highest half-year figure on record.<br \/>\nIn Q2, there were 16 residential en bloc sales collectively worth $3.9 billion, pushing the half-year tally to 33 transactions with a combined worth of $9.7 billion, which surpasses the total collective sales for the whole of 2017 by 19 percent.<br \/>\nHowever, Colliers International\u2019s research head for Singapore Tricia Song expects a slowdown in the residential en bloc market in the near-term due to the new property curbs, which has raised taxes for investors and property developers in the private residential segment.<br \/>\n\u201cCommercial and industrial real estate could pick up the slack in the second half of the year, on the back of healthy commercial properties deal pipelines and rising interest from real estate investment trusts (REITs) and institutional investors for industrial assets,\u201d she explained.<br \/>\nDespite the forecasted slowdown in the private residential market, including the en bloc segment, the consultancy thinks that overall property investment sales for the whole of 2018 would match last year\u2019s record $40 billion.<br \/>\nBut this forecast is a downgrade from a prior projection that had anticipated a 15 percent annual increase in investment sale to $46 billion before the implementation of the new property cooling measures.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource : proppertyguru.com.sg\/Property Market&#013;<br \/>\nRead more&#8230;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.propertyguru.com.sg\/property-management-news\/2018\/8\/173911\/residential-investment-sales-expected-to-slow-down-in-second-half\" target=\"_blank\">Residential investment sales expected to slow down in second half<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#013; Overall real estate investment sales in Singapore rose 11 percent quarter-on-quarter and 19 percent year-on-year&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"false","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_is_tweetstorm":false,"jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-95997","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-property-news"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p75ss1-oYl","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":84146,"url":"https:\/\/www.siamlandbank.com\/propertynews\/property-news\/strongest-first-quarter-on-record-for-singapore-investment-sales\/","url_meta":{"origin":95997,"position":0},"title":"Strongest first quarter on record for Singapore investment sales","date":"March 29, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"\r Residential collective sales dominate with $5.83 billion worth of deals.
