On The Micro Level

Market Insights & Outlook

Overall activity shows a healthy two-engine market: off-plan leading on volume and value (typical of developer-led demand and payment-plan appeal), while ready transactions remain substantial, supporting immediate occupancy and income strategies. Notably, off-plan hotel apartments were absent, but ready hotel apartments were meaningful, suggesting buyers are selectively favouring established, income-ready hospitality-style assets today.
