Thematic (Sector/Industry)

Patterns of search, in particular the number of enquiries property seekers make for property, can potentially reveal signs of future market movements, according to a new study conducted by PropertyGuru Analytics.When property seekers perform searches on an online portal such as PropertyGuru, they are actively looking out for something pertinent to them. This captures their intent per visit and over time, their behavioral patterns across several categories - be it price, location or size – can be extrapolated to form trends. In turn, the breadth and depth of this aggregated trend data, together with its timeliness, makes search an incredibly revealing source of information on what’s happening in the property market. Being the market leader in Singapore’s online property search scene, PropertyGuru has the most qualitative data about the property market to look for trends that can paint a picture of the property market, and more importantly, forecast specific patterns which could occur in the year ahead.&nbsp;<blockquote>Our Analytics points towards a further slowdown in private property transactions in 1H15 before a likely pick-up by 4Q15. Prices, on the other hand, are likely to continue to move lower over the rest of 2015.</blockquote>
