Driving the Success of the Nation

Consisting of factory spaces, warehouse spaces and industrial land, industrial properties are mostly located outside central Singapore like Changi, Jurong , Tuas and Woodlands.

Separated into three main use categories, these properties support many of Singapore’s essential industries like construction, engineering and marine. With high demand and shorter tenures, these industrial spaces provide good opportunities for investment.

We have classified the 4 main purposes when it comes to assisting our clients to suit their objectives

Buy / Rent

for Business Use

Business owners who are in need of a property to conduct their business will look to buy or rent a commercial or industrial property. For example, an F&B business renting a unit or a logistics business purchasing a warehouse.

Buy

for Investments

Investors who are looking to diversify or purchase a second property without ABSD, will look to purchase a commercial and/or industrial property. Ideally, they will be looking for a good rental yield and capital appreciation opportunity.

Upgrade / Downsize

for Business Use

Businesses that are expanding, may need to upgrade from their current premises. On the other hand, businesses that are downsizing, could be looking to move to a smaller unit. With the onset of COVID-19, there has been a shift of F&B and retail businesses scaling down their operations, whereas, cloud kitchens and logistics businesses have been expanding.

Hybrid
(A mix of own use
+ partial rent out)

For some businesses, when they purchase a property, they may not need to utilise the entire space and may look to rent out the unused space. In this way, the business can rent out part of the property to another business, thereby, maximising the space of the property.
