[SINGAPORE] The balance of power is shifting towards landlords in Singapore’s prime office market, with most property consultants forecasting an acceleration in Central Business District (CBD) Grade A office rent growth in 2026 due to tighter supply conditions.
Demand is expected to remain stable.
CBRE expects the gross effective average office rental value for its Core CBD (Grade A) basket to increase by 4.9 per cent to S$12.90 per square foot (psf) per month in the fourth quarter of 2026, from S$12.30 psf in Q4 2025.
