Exploring Territorial Property Trends Across International Boundaries
Singapore is set to take centre stage as a hub for global residential property investment, with the launch of the inaugural Global Property Expo 2025. Organised by JLL, the three-day event will take place at the Sands Expo & Convention Centre from July 18 to 20, bringing together leading international developers and investors from the Asia Pacific region.
According to James Puddle, Head of International Residential at JLL Southeast Asia, the main objective of the expo is to establish a direct connection between international developers and active investors in the rapidly growing Asia Pacific market. The expo aims to provide attendees with a clear benchmark of the diverse residential investment options available globally and offers streamlined access to these opportunities.
The expo will feature over 30 exhibitors from more than 20 countries, showcasing residential properties in key markets such as London, Lisbon, Bali, Dubai, Bangkok, Tokyo, and Boston. The programme includes expert-led sessions on sustainability, PropTech innovation, alternative financing, international tax and legal frameworks, and talks on tokenized property ownership and buying strategies abroad. Financial institutions will also be present to advise on mortgages, capital structuring, and wealth planning.
The expo's diversified offerings are designed to cater to the rising demand for overseas residential investment in the Asia Pacific region. In addition, the event will serve as a comprehensive one-stop hub for investors interested in cross-border residential property.
The Asia Pacific region has seen a surge in the popularity of branded residences, making it the second-largest market globally. In response, JLL is evolving to support cross-border investors by acting as a strategic advisor, using data, technology, and local expertise to help investors enter and scale in emerging markets.
Undervalued but growing Southeast Asian markets such as Phuket, Penang, and Lombok are attracting attention due to their lifestyle appeal, affordability, and strong fundamentals. These markets offer a unique opportunity for investors seeking to capitalise on their growth potential.
The Global Property Expo 2025 marks a significant step in positioning Singapore as a key hub for global residential property investment. Post-pandemic, the concept of 'home' has evolved to encompass work, wellness, and family needs, making it an exciting time for the residential property market. The Global Property Expo 2025 is expected to become the premier international property platform in Asia, expanding in scale, markets, and investor-developer engagement each year.
