Are Properties Appreciating Over Time?

2 min read

Are Properties Appreciating Over Time?A reader Asks:

Are properties in Singapore appreciating in value over time?

Dave Yong, theAsianparent property expert, replies:

This question is quite pertinent especially in land scarce Singapore. You hear of foreigners investing in luxurious penthouses in view of increasing property prices over time. Recently, I read in the news that a Hong Kong permanent resident snapped up a penthouse in Singapore which was previously owned by an Indian tycoon for $30 million. The Indian tycoon had paid $17.3 million for the penthouse just 4 years back!

Accordingly, properties are definitely appreciating in value over time. From experience, I can tell you that property prices in Singapore are soaring. Additionally, the resale price index indicates that property assets have been appreciating over time due to 2 main reasons:

1) The land scarcity in Singapore

Singapore’s population is increasing rapidly year on year. This adds on to the land scarcity condition in Singapore. Land scarcity leads to an increase in demand for property which may be attributed to an appreciation of property assets.

2) Singapore’s good governing policies

The splendid governing policies of our government ensures a safe and sound environment increasing both the local and foreign demand for properties in Singapore. Over time, our government’s policies has caused the value of property assets to rise.
