When investing in Singapore, it is crucial for foreign investors to familiarize themselves with the regulations and limitations surrounding property ownership. In contrast to landed properties, which have more stringent ownership regulations, foreigners have relatively few restrictions when purchasing condos. However, they must still pay the Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD), currently set at 20% for their initial property acquisition. Despite this additional expense, the stability and potential for growth in the Singapore real estate market remain appealing to foreign investors. As such, new condo launches continue to garner interest and attract foreign investment.

GuocoLand, one of Singapore’s leading real estate companies, has reported higher revenue for its fiscal year 2025, which ended on June 30. This growth was seen across both the development and investment segments of the company. However, due to an allowance for its development properties in China, the net profit for the year fell by 17% year-on-year to $107 million.

He says, “We expect our businesses in Singapore to remain resilient in the future.”
