According to research conducted by PropNex, the shophouse market experienced a relatively subdued performance in the last quarter, with only 18 shophouse transactions recorded in 2Q2025 based on caveats lodged. This represents a 10% decrease from the 20 deals recorded in the previous quarter and a 14.3% decline from the 21 deals in the same quarter last year.

The decline in shophouse transactions can be attributed to a continued mismatch in price expectations between buyers and sellers, as noted by PropNex. Additionally, the announcement of sweeping trade tariffs by the US in April and the escalating conflict in the Middle East have further contributed to market uncertainties.

However, PropNex also highlights that the actual shophouse sales in …
