Real estate has always been a major industry in Singapore. Even though properties can be very expensive, many Singapore investors continue to invest their capital across individual residential, industrial and commercial properties, committing more than $1 million into their investment properties, and/or taking large loans in order to finance these purchases. But even without at least a few hundred thousand dollars in investment capital, you can still invest in the property sector in Singapore. With numerous real estate developers listed on the Singapore Exchange (SGX), investors can pick and choose the different real estate stocks that they want to invest into.

The weekly 4 Stocks This Week column on DollarsAndSense was started in 2017 with a simple objective was simple: to provide a convenient read each week for busy investors to stay updated with what is happening on the Singapore Exchange. 4 Stock This Week is not a recommendation from us to buy or sell any of the stocks that wke feature. Its purpose is to highlight interesting stocks that investors should be aware of, rather than to analyse these stocks.

Over the past year (51 weeks), we’ve covered 123 SGX-listed stocks, 4 ETFs and 8 Daily Leverage Certificates. The most covered stock was Sas

On 29 October 2018, I wrote that OUE share price plunged to a record 14-year low of $1.37. Since that fateful day, the counter confounded all critics by staging a magnificent run to reach a high of $1.80 on 12 April 2019. It certainly seemed like OUE share price is out to prove me wrong.

After months of intensive research on the residential property sectors, my wife and I have decided to proceed with purchasing our second property here in Singapore.Just yesterday, we've submitted the cheque, went to the lawyer and signed everything that we needed to settle.We've never previously thought of the idea that we'd be buying a second home, especially in an expensive country like Singapore where private property was rated the second most expensive in the world according to a report from CBRE (source article here).Why Buy Now?But we were bounded by circumstances, in particular the fact that we rented out our bigger units a few months back and had to move in to our in-laws place in the interim. It was never the most ideal situation for the longer term because of many reasons and soo
