Tang emphasize that tight source will support a stable rental upside for the property, noting that rentals for excellent and Grade-A workplaces in the core CBD expanded 5.9% y-o-y in 2022. “Investors must consider buying several levels to savor long-lasting investment appreciation or to anticipate the likelihood of a cumulative sale in the years to come, where they would certainly have much more considerable voting rights in this development,” she claims.

Supply has also been even more limited by the adjustment in state protocol to limit strata subdivision of business assets in the central location.
