In fact, new project launches in RCR comprised nearly half of all the new launches.<\/p>\n<p>For 2020, the industry is also predicted to focus on District 15, the city-state\u2019s original waterfront district, since the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) has planned to develop some of the areas into a \u201cvibrant and sustainable garden neighbourhood.\u201d By 2023 or 2024, it will be accessible via the Thomson-East Coast Line (TEL).<\/p>\n<p>And since the luxury market in Singapore surpassed expectations in 2019, our team has forecasted foreign buying to continue this year with new launches. This is mainly due to the fact that foreigners regard the city-state as a secure and stable place to invest in.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The PropertyGuru team shares
