The OfficeA review of the Singapore office market

Average top rental rates are now in the region of $8.50 to $9.50 per sq ft effective. The rate of decline in this prime sector of the market has slowed down significantly and in some cases, such as Guoco Tower, rates are even higher than they were 6 months ago.

Generally we expect top prime rates to soften only marginally, by around 5% during the course of 2017, but they are beginning to bottom out. It will be the mid-tier market that will experience that greatest pressure over the next 12 months and we expect further falls of around 10% during this period in this sector.

2018 will be an important year for relocations, due to a lull in new supply for a couple of years after that

There should still be some excellent opportunities for tenants to secure good quality space in the core financial district for around $6.50 to $7.50 per sq ft effective. Even Raffles Place is expected to average around $8.00 - $9.00 per sq ft, down from $10.00 per sq ft a year ago.

Forecast Top tier market bottoming out – mid tier to soften by a further 10% in next 12 months

In the Marina Bay area we expect that Millenia Tower and Centennial Tower will come under some pressure. Suntec City enjoys a relatively high occupancy rate, so effective rates here may soften only slightly to around $7.50 - $8.00 per sq ft. Out of town locations such as Novena and Alexandra Road are likely to remain popular with average effective rate between $5.50 psf and $6.50 psf.

It will be important for businesses to plan well in advance

2018 will be an important year for relocations. This is because there will be a lull in new supply for a couple of years after that, with the next wave of supply not coming on stream until 2020/ 2021.

It will therefore be important for businesses to plan well in advance, which is not easy in this uncertain economic climate but firms should start their reviews this year for their 2018 requirements. Rental cost savings should be easy to find in all locations, whatever a tenant’s business plan may be.

The office rental market has been dominated by the frantic leasing activity in the new office schemes. Guoco Tower is now over 85% occupied with some of the most recent tenants including Dentsu Aegis Networks (100,000 sq ft), Uber (60,000 sq ft), ING Bank (70,000 sq ft), Unity Technologies, Straits Trading Company, Fitbit Singapore, Frontline Shipping, Seadrill Management, Teva Pharmaceuticals, Danone Asia Pacific, Theoria Capital and Graticule Asset Management.

Marina One is scheduled for completion /TOP in April and is also attracting some of the largest tenants around such as Bank Julius Baer (100,000 sq ft), Prudential Assurance (90,000 sq ft), Bank of Tokyo Mitsubishi (140,000 sq ft), BP (70,000 sq ft) and most recently announced is massive space of over 250,000 sq ft which has been leased to Facebook.

Close by is the new development of UIC Building at 5 Shenton Way which has attracted new tenants such as Mitsui OSK Lines (68,000 sq ft), Just Office (40,000 sq ft), and it is rumoured Grab Taxi has leased 2 floors (40,000 sq ft) here. However, not all schemes are taking off, with activity at Duo Tower on Beach Road continuing to be slow. This is maybe a marketing strategy, to avoid direct competition from the other schemes in the core of the financial district and once those projects start filling out, Duo Tower should come to the fore. Most recent tenants to Duo include Golden Equator Capital and Duferco Asia.

Raffles Place has seen less activity than usual but this is in part due to the surprisingly tight supply at the moment. The most significant leasing transaction to take place in this location has been in Republic Plaza where Chinese co-working space operator Distrii (part owned by City Developments - the landlord) has leased around 60,000 sq ft. Alibaba has expanded to lease another floor in One Raffles Place Tower 1 and St James’s Place Wealth Management has leased a whole floor in One Raffles Place Tower 2. MUFG Fund Services has expanded in Singapore Land Tower. Vatada International

Traders has moved into Ocean Financial Centre along with law firm Holman Fenwick & Willan, who relocated form Samsung Hub. Nearby at One George Street, Ifchor Panamax has relocated here from The Central and law firm Chris Chong & CT Ho has moved into OCBC Centre from GB Building. Star Insurance has moved into CapitaGreen.

New Downtown has seen mixed activity. Asia Square has seen some of their existing tenants expand within the scheme such as Mundipharma, Leonteq and CTBC Bank and other new tenants there include Partners Group (from 71 Robinson Road), Mitsui & Co (80,000 sq ft from 80 Robinson Road), Lombard International and JTP Holdings. One Raffles Quay has been attracting several new tenants. Fitch Rating has moved into South Tower from Suntec City, as has ACCA from Wisma Atria. Finexis Advisory has moved into South Tower from 108 Robinson Road and another new tenant here includes Singapore Bora Petroleum.

Shenton Way / Robinson Road still remains one of the most competitive locations. Law firm Eversheds has moved to SGX Centre from One Finlayson Green and fashion group Coach has moved into Robinson 77. Axway also moved into Robinson 77 from AXA Tower. Crown @ Robinson has leased around 55,000 sq ft to co-work space operator The Working Capitol. OUE Downtown 2 has secured Hong Lam Shipping and Shinryo

Summary of Office Developments 2017 - 2021

There is still ample office space available for lease in the newly completed schemes, with the exception of Guoco Tower. Demand is expected to continue to be cost driven rather than expansion, so it is predicted that there will be a good choice of space in most buildings throughout 2017. The choice however for larger space users looking in Raffles Place is surprisingly limited.

There will be some huge voids appearing in some of the older established buildings

There will be some huge voids appearing in some of the older established buildings, as a result of major relocation this year and it will be these buildings that will be under the most pressure. The table above lists the 10 buildings that will be most affected. It is likely these landlords will be very proactive to

secure new tenants to infill their space, as well as retaining their remaining tenants.

Supply in Raffles Place is expected to remain relatively tight with no major relocations other than those tenants coming out of Republic Plaza. The bulk of the secondary supply will be coming from the fringe of Raffles Place, Shenton Way / Robinson Road and Beach Road. The amount of new business park space will be more limited than in previous years but there are 2 new schemes under construction in Singapore Science Parks 1 & 2.

2018 will be in important year for office relocations because options after 2018 will be more limited. The three most important new schemes next year are Frasers Tower and Robinson Tower on Robinson Road and Paya Lebar Quarter.

Group as new tenants. Several accounting firms have purchased their own floors in this district such as Rohm Mah & Partners who purchased a floor at AXA Tower and The Iyer Practice in SBF Centre.

Some of the buildings in Tanjong Pagar offer the best value for money and this location has seen plenty of leasing action. Zalora have moved into two consecutive floors in Keppel Towers (28,000 sq ft). United Arab Shipping and Check Point Software have each leased a floor at Keppel Towers 2.

Business Park / Science Park Space

The supply of office stock that is categorized as Business Park or Science Park space has increased substantially and has now become a major part of the Singapore office leasing market but not every business qualifies to use such space.

The space in such new developments is usually high quality with good natural lighting and excellent facilities yet the rental rates can be up to 40% cheaper than traditional office space, ranging from $3.25 to $5.00 per sq ft effective.

However there are strict rules and regulations for businesses to qualify and it is imperative that you check with URA that you comply

with the regulations before you sign any lease because you will be signing as a light industrial / business space user.

Do you qualify?

Generally those companies that operate from business park space are one or more of the following users and should occupy at least 60% of the gross floor area for such purposes as follows:

• Manufacturing of high tech products using advanced processes• Test Laboratory• Research and Development• Software Development

• Product Design / Development • Data Processing / Computer Centre• Call Centre Services• Industrial Training• Telecommunication Business• Central Distribution Centers • Media Activities• E-commerce/Internet providers

Certain categories such as CDC and e-commerce can be ‘grey areas’ and special care is needed when relying on just this use to qualify. Normally a tenant will have their interior designer prepare a colour coded floor plan marking clearly the uses for each section of the space making the evaluation a much simpler process.

half a floor at The Gateway East, DS Global Marketing has moved into The Concourse and Hitachi Consulting leased space in South Beach Tower.

Outside the CBD there has been plenty of activity in the business / science parks and Ascent, the largest Ascendas scheme in Science Park 1 is nearly full. Mapletree Business City is also nearly full with International Air Travel Association (IATA) being one of the latest tenants to move from 111 Somerset.

Co-working space and serviced office space could have a huge impact on supply and demand

A new sector of the office leasing market that has come to the forefront recently is the serviced office / co-working space sector.

The full impact on demand/supply from this sector remains unclear

The full impact on demand/supply from this sector remains unclear and many observers are wondering who will actually occupy all the vast space they have committed to. The knock on effects could be significant. Buildings that faced huge voids such as Republic Plaza, with several anchor tenants moving out, found a solution with attracting co-work operator Distrii leasing some 60,000 sq ft.

Elsewhere The Working Capital Group has leased 11 floors in 140 Robinson Road (Crown @ Robinson) amounting to some 55,000 sq ft. Just Office has leased 40,000 sq ft in UIC Building (2 whole floors) as well as 34,000 sq ft in Marina One, both for co-working space.

The question is who will occupy this space,

which theoretically would require over 1,000 small new companies to fill out? Well, if the experience in Tower 535 in Causeway Bay in Hong Kong is anything to go by, the answer may soon be clear. Leading co-work space operator WeWork leased over 60,000 sq ft in this brand new development and HSBC Bank is lined up to take up most of that space. It is understood that some banks are looking to house their sales staff in such space, with many of their sales team ‘on the road’ for much of the time. So it comes as no surprise that it is rumoured that another financial institution is lined up for over 200 workstations in Crown @ Robinson.

The knock on effect is likely to be these companies will lease smaller conventional office space and allow for greater flexibility by allocating a larger proportion of their team to work in co-work space.
