Foreigners are buying about 60 percent of the luxury apartments with a price tag of more than 5 million Singapore dollars (4.1 million U.S. dollars) in the first half of the year, local daily Straits Times reported on Monday.
Foreigners, including permanent residents, bought 162 non- landed units worth above 5 million Singapore dollars in the six months, building on a trend of increasing foreign buyer interest since the heady days of 2007, it said.
Singaporeans accounted for just 20 percent of the purchases of more than 5 million Singapore dollars in the six months ended June 30. Full story
