Alan Cheong, Executive Director, Research & Consultancy, Savills Singapore comments, “For pure investors, buying a private residential property is all about timing and buying into the right development. Over the course of about 10 years, empirical evidence showed that projects that are mid to large size tend to appreciate more in capital value terms than the smaller ones. However, it does not mean that smaller projects are losing out. They offer value for money for those who intend to buy for rental yield or for long term personal stay.”
