    Citibank: Property Prices Will Rise By 30%

    Home prices in Singapore are expected to rise much more than those in Hong Kong, over the next two years, according to Citigroup.

    Speaking at an Asia Pacific property conference in Singapore on Monday, Citigroup analysts say they see Singapore residential prices jumping by as much as 30% by 2008 compared to just 10% for Hong Kong.

    Price tags for private homes in Singapore will be on the rise for at least the next two years, according to Citigroup.

    It sees Singapore as being in the early stages of a cyclical upswing.

    This is in contrast to Hong Kong, where the cycle is on the downtrend - and expected to end by 2009.

    They say that Singapore prices are being driven by high occupancy rates, which have hit a record peak of 95.7%, and set to even climb higher over the next two years.

    Wendy Koh, Director, Asia Pacific Equity Research, Citigroup, said: "If you look at the residential sector, occupancy rate right now is about 93.9% as at the end of 2006. If we take into account the completion this year which is only about 5,000 units, and last year's demand was about 9,000, and on annual basis the last 10-year average was about 8,000, occupancy rates should continue to rise.

    "And if you take into account the 3,500 units that were sold en bloc last year, occupancy rate is actually closer to 95.5% last year. That is a record high as we have not seen that sort of levels before."

    Citigroup expects occupancy to rise further to 96.8% this year, and 97.1% in 2008, as the level of demand far outstrips supply.

    Over in the office sector, it is predicting rentals to rise 56% to $18.50 psf by the end of 2008, up from $11.80 currently.

    And despite the recent run-up in property counters, Citigroup sees further upside in some choice picks.

    Ms Koh said: "We like City Developments, Wing Tai, Allgreen. We also like Keppel Land for office play. For the first three stocks, it's more the residential exposure. If you look at City Dev and Wing Tai, they have been replenishing their land bank, and riding the upswing in the residential market."

    Private home prices in Singapore rose 10.2% last year, and an estimated 4.6% in the first quarter of this year.

    What about CapitaLand?
    CapitaLand has Seafront @ Meyer, Orchard Residences, etc..
    30% price increase is a lot!

    Profitable ways to ride out the year

    We seem to still be at mid-cycle in our current bull market, so you'll lose out if you sit on the sidelines. Just jump in cautiously
    By LIM SAY BOON

    Much water has flowed under the bridge since my last column in Executive Money but not many of the fundamentals have changed.

    I was an equities bull last July when the emerging markets meltdown looked to some like the end of the bull market. Around Christmas and again early this year, I turned a cautious equities bull, speaking of higher prices but warning of turbulence along the way - around the issues of the US economic slowdown and the downturn in the housing sector; the American equities market's need for an interest rate cut 'fix'; periodic spikes in volatility and resultant stock sell-offs; jitters surrounding the yen carry trade; and equities looking just plain overbought.

    And while all the above concerns played out in rather spectacular fashion in end-February and early March, those same worries will almost certainly resurface later this year to spook the markets.

    ..........

    And if you don't think you can tolerate the volatility of an outright long position on equities given the near-term volatility possibility, you can consider structured products that give you partial participation on the upside while protecting against some of the downside. There are also products that pay you relatively high yields on the basis of relative outperformance rather than outright market upside.

    And there are also funds that offer long-short strategies to hedge against short-term equities downside or even funds that offer low correlation, multi-asset exposures, focusing on absolute returns.

    Don't hestitate.

    Home prices seen rising further this year

    Building, financial services sectors to benefit as well

    By UMA SHANKARI

    The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) yesterday said home prices are expected to continue to grow this year - after climbing 4.6% in the first quarter, the highest growth seen in 7 years.

    The gain, which has so far been greatest for the luxury market, could also filter down to other mid to high-end segments which could benefit from the steady stream of buyers who have sold their houses in en bloc sales, Singapore's central bank said in its latest Macroeconomic Review.

    MAS expects the property upturn to spill over to the construction and financial services sectors.

    'Contracts awarded have trended up steadily from 2003 to reach $16.1 billion last year, a level not seen since 2000. This is expected to translate into higher certified payments and value added for the sector in the near term,' says MAS. 'Indeed, the recovery of the construction sector continued in early 2007, underpinned by ongoing work in the residential segment.'

    A number of ongoing major projects including the Marina Bay Financial and Business Centre, the integrated resorts and the downtown MRT extension, are also expected to further fuel the recovery in the construction sector.

    The recent spike in raw material costs caused by disruptions to the supply of sand has not resulted in delays in building projects, MAS says. But the bank warns that in the future, new developments could be slowed or delayed if sand and concrete become more difficult to obtain.

    The large number of upcoming new commercial developments should also see more credit being extended to the building and construction industry, MAS says. This is expected to benefit the financial services sector.

    And on the consumer loans front, while mortgage loan growth has remained tepid in recent quarters, some upside could be seen in the months ahead as the residential property uptick at the luxury end begins to spread to the broader market.

    MAS also says that the recent upswing in property prices will have only a small impact on inflation this year. This is mainly because substantial price increases in the near term should be largely confined to the upper and middle segments of the private residential market, MAS predicts.

    'On balance, the impact of rising property prices on consumer price index (CPI) inflation is likely to be modest, with the direct impact contributing only 0.1% point in 2007, compared with the average of negative 0.2% points over the past three years,' says MAS.

    UBS says buy.
    Citigroup says buy.
    Now MAS also says buy.
    Let's go make some money! Hurray!

    S'pore's home prices rise 4.8% in Q1


    SINGAPORE - Singapore's home prices chalked up their biggest gains in over seven years, rising 4.8 per cent in the January to March period from the previous quarter led by the luxury segment, officials figures showed on Friday.

    The Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA), said its price index for private homes rose to 136.5 points in the first quarter from 130.2 points in the Oct-Dec period last year. This is a 16.5 per cent increase from the first quarter a year ago.

    Prices for private apartments in the republic's prime central district rose at a faster pace during the first quarter, climbing 5.5 per cent compared to the more modest 2 per cent gain chalked up by flats in the rest of the island republic.

    Private home rents also grew at a faster pace between January and March, growing 7.6 per cent compared to 5.3 per cent in the last three months of 2006. Singapore's property market recovery gained momentum after the government introduced measures in July 2005 to ease real-estate financing rules and foreign investment.

    Last month, CapitaLand and its Hong Kong partner Sun Hung Kai Properties said they had set a new pricing benchmark for Singapore residential property by selling some units in their downtown development for more than $4,000 (US$2,644) per square foot.

    The URA said office space rents grew 10.4 per cent in January-March, moderating slightly from 11.6 per cent in the last quarter of 2006. -- REUTERS

    Singapore can exceed its 3 to 5% growth potential over the next five to eight years, .................... that the government is not worried about inflation despite a planned two percentage point increase in the goods and services tax, a tight labour market, and a red-hot property market.

    He said .................... said that rising property prices and higher salaries were a logical consequence of such policies, but added Singapore would remain competitive with other financial centres.

    "We are quite confident that we will remain a lower-cost city among the high-value cities of the world. Amongst the financial centres of the world, we will remain lower cost for quite some time to come," he said, adding that office space costs were still about a third of those in London, 40% of those in Hong Kong and about 60% of those in Tokyo.

    He said that the planned new financial centre at the city's waterfront Marina Bay would ease price pressure on office space. He also said that the government would not be shy to intervene in the property market to curb excessive price inflation but said "we are not anywhere near that yet."

    "We are quite comfortable with the present stage of the cycle because the mass market is not involved in the frenzy," he said.

    Hello angry fellow:

    1. The government is not worried about the red-hot property market.

    2. Rising property prices are a logical consequence of good economy policies.

    3. We are still a lower-cost city among the global financial centres. We are about a 1/3 of London, 40% of HongKong and about 60% of Tokyo.

    4. We are not anywhere near the point of excessive price inflation in property market.

    5. The government is comfortable as the mass market is not involved in the frenzy.

    Congratulations! You property value is going up. Are you happy now?

    Meyer Road is a good buy.
    Just compare Meyer condos to Duchess Residences.

    You can either buy:
    1. Resale (on older properties), or
    2. Primary Sale or Subsale (on new properties).

    It all depends on your budget and residence requirement.

    For Primary sale, there are:
    1. Seafront On Meyer, and
    2. The upcoming HongLeong condo.
    Both condos are next to ECP.

    For Subsale, there are:
    1. The Belvedere,
    2. The View On Meyer, and
    3. Meyer Residences.
    (4. Seafront On Meyer).

    Both The Belvedere and The View On Meyer have no blockage.
    The Belvedere is next to Katong Park and ECP.
    The View On Meyer is opposite Katong Park.

    Default SM Goh: Property Prices At "Higher End" But Government "Not Too Worried"

    Prices are still affordable for middle-income and HDB heartlanders, he says
    (Edited transcript of SM Goh's interview with CNBC)
    Irene Ngoo
    AsiaOne
    6 July 2007

    Property prices in Singapore are at the "higher end" now but this does not mean a property bubble forming, said Senior Minister Goh Chok Tong.

    While he noted that the property market is active, he said the government is "not too worried" and is watching the property market closely.

    Mr Goh said this in an interview with CNBC, when he was asked if a property bubble seems to be forming in Singapore.

    "Property bubble is short-term. I think the property market is active, but at this stage, we are not too worried. The prices are at the higher end. We watch very closely," he said in the interview, aired on CNBC today.

    "Prices for the middle-income and for the HDB heartlanders … are still quite affordable for Singaporeans in general. So, my worry will be where do we go from here? It's a longer-term worry. It's not a short-term worry. It comes back to my point about talent. For Singapore to grow, you need talent, talent from Singaporeans or within Singapore and talent from outside."

    Private home prices have shot up across the board in Singapore because of the property boom, robust economy and influx of foreign capital. The continuing rising trend has raised concerns that the property is getting overheated.

    Estimates released by the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) earlier this week show that private property is on a dramatic upswing with plenty of momentum. Prices for the April to June period rose 7.9% – the biggest jump since the third quarter in 1999, when the market staged a brief recovery before sliding into a lengthy slump. The increase comes on top of a 4.8% rise in the first three months this year.

    The Senior Minister said some MNCs have complained about the rising rental because of the property boom here but they are not staying away.

    Mr Goh was interviewed for a CNBC special marking the 10th anniversary of the Asian financial crisis. He was then Prime Minister of Singapore when the financial meltdown swept the region, bringing several Asian economies to their knees. Singapore was not spared either, and was forced to cut 20,000 jobs, wages and CPF contributions.

    Asked if rising costs could put Singapore at risk again of another crisis, SM Goh said: "I myself do not think a financial crisis is going to happen. The stock markets in Asia, of course, are very lively. Share prices are generally at an all-time high, but the banking structure is strong. In Singapore, we are resilient and have hardly any non-performing loans which we need to worry about."

    "We have separated the non-financial activities of the banks from the financial activities. Banks running hotels, for example, and other non-financial activities have been taken out. So, in Singapore, we are less concerned about another financial crisis. But in the region, I think we need to watch that. But generally, my sense is that the banking industry in the region is also resilient."

    SM Goh, who is chairman of the Monetary Authority of Singapore, also made this point in an earlier interview yesterday with the BBC, saying that while Singapore's buoyant stock market may suffer a correction, a financial crisis is not on the way. He also said that the government should not interfere in the stock market.

    Asked again by CNBC if rising costs - not just business costs but cost of living as well - could put Singapore at a disadvantage, he said this is a worry and the government is monitoring inflation.

    He added: "Costs are always a factor, but generally, you do want the standard of living of Singaporeans to go up. And a higher standard of living means more income in real terms, in the real sense. We do monitor inflation."

    "Costs - we do worry. But that means you've got to move into higher value-added industries, like biomedical services and financial services, education, health and so on. We cannot be doing things which we were doing before 1997, where China and India will become much more competitive. So, costs are always important, but we are not going to allow costs to prevent us from growing. Just move into the right sector."

    Has this kept any MNC from setting up base here or setting up plants here?

    SM Goh said: "We are seeing quite a few of these - not so much in the manufacturing side but MNCs in the sense of international financial institutions - more wealth management, hedge funds and other such regional head offices are being set up in Singapore."

    On the biggest lesson from the Asian financial crisis, Mr Goh cited having a strong financial sector as a key factor to withstand such a shock.

    "We realised very much earlier that the financial industry is a global industry and, therefore, you’ve got to be more aware of what’s happening in the world and in the region, in particular. So you've got to set up, not just internally but also externally, a system of regional surveillance of the financial performances of banks outside Singapore too. In other words, it requires cooperation from other countries as well."

    Just as Singapore has learnt a lesson from the financial upheaval a decade ago, he said other Asian economies are also "very much more acutely aware of the importance of bank supervision and good corporate governance."

    "Our neighbours' own banking sectors - as far as you can see - are also much more resilient today than during the financial crisis or just before that."

    actually belevedere is already asking for the same price as seafront. eg no view or "katong" park view units are already asking for 1350psf upwards and this is with no deferred payment. seafront no view units are also priced at 1300+psf. If i am punting on "forward prices" i will much rather buy seafront on the deferred payment scheme or take progessive payment and get a no view seafront unit at 1200+psf which is cheaper than belevedere no view units. Not to mention seafront units are more spacious than belevedere. But of course if you are going for rental yield then you will go for belevedere. Personally i will much rather go for the capital appreciation play.

    What are you comparing?

    At $1,400 psf, I can get City-view (e.g. IR, The Sail, Singapore Flyer, etc.) units in The Belvedere.
    At $1,400 psf, I only get no-view unit in Seafront On Meyer.

    City-view means can enjoy the beautiful neon lights of the IR, The Sail, Singapore Flyer, etc. at night.
    No-view means see the opposite condos along Meyer Road.

    There is a difference.

    KatongPark-view units in The Belvedere are priced from $1,000 to $1,300 psf.
    They are definitely cheaper than the no-view units in Seafront.

    Don't talk rubbish lah.
    What bigger unit?

    Should Seafront price be higher than Belvedere? Yes, of course.
    Is it because it has better view than Belvedere? No.
    Is it because its units are bigger than Belverder? No.
    is it because it is better built than Belvedere? No.
    Its price should be higher because it is launched later.

    Just like the new Hong Leong condo should also be priced higher than Seafront. Not because it is better, but because it is launched later.

    That is the nature of the market. We just have to follow.
    Please don't b.s. us saying this is bigger, that is better, etc..
