Singapore&rsquo s industrial property market could bottom out soon as macroeconomic forces gather strength. &ldquo The Purchasing Manager Index has been hovering above 50 since September 2016, which indicates expansion in manufacturing activities, while non-oil domestic exports are generally trending up despite short-term fluctuations,&rdquo says Lee Nai Jia, head of research at Edmund Tie & Co.
Lee was speaking on the industrial property market and outlook on July 1 at T-Space, a new ramp-up industrial development located at Tampines North Drive 1, in the vicinity of IKEA Tampines, Giant hypermarket and Courts Megastore. T-Space developers Lian Beng Group and Oxley Holdings recently released new units on Level 6 for sale. They are also offering star buys.
