Tang Wei Leng, managing director and director of capital markets and investment services in Singapore at Colliers The property an “rare chance” to buy strata office space within the CBD area, which is a highly held market. “Currently there is a limited supply of premium office space in the heart of the CBD because of a shortage of new inventory and the depletion of existing inventory for redevelopment,” she explains. The supply has been further limited by the new government policy that restricts strata subdivisions of commercial assets located in central regions.

Ismail Gafoor, executive chairman and CEO of PropNex agrees, adding that empty full-floor plates in Grade-A offices located in the CBD are difficult to find, especially in the sought-after Raffles Place area. “We have witnessed a huge interest from families offices as well as tech companies that are shifting office spaces in Singapore and are looking for empty spaces for their personal usage and with Raffles Place being their top priority,” he observes.
