Manila and Tokyo lead global rally of prime residential market in 1Q2024: Knight Frank
According to Knight Frank’s Prime Global Cities Index, prime housing prices in Manila and Tokyo were one of the top undertaking property industry in 1Q2024, based upon average annual price growth.
At the same time, Tokyo’s prime home market saw robust expansion in housing prices at the start of this year, which is attributed to incredibly beneficial home loan conditions provided by Japanese banking institutions and a weak yen, which has actually boosted foreign financial investment in Tokyo’s realty, states Bailey.
She claims that with home acquiring curbs in China easing amidst decreased downpayment and home loan prices, protocols progressively presented by the Chinese state to stabilise its wider property industry are likely to slip right into the prime sector and remain supportive of price levels for the remainder of 2024.
Manila topped the chart the moment it logged a 26.2% y-o-y rise in residential property prices in 1Q2024 matched up to the very same duration a year ago. Tokyo got 2nd position with a 12.5% y-o-y surge in prime housing deals.
Statement on the efficiency of the Chinese home realty market, Christine Li, head of research at Knight Frank Asia-Pacific, noted: “Also among Chinese Mainland’s beleaguered real property markets, prime residential costs in its tiered-one urban areas have actually largely continued to be durable, which rose by approximately 2.8% y-o-y in 1Q2024. This is in stark contradiction to the mass residential sector, demonstrating the strength of the prime segment as an investment group that are shielded by much less price sensitive purchasers and decreased supply.”
The valuation-based index tracks the action of prime household prices throughout 44 global metros. The very first 3 months of this year saw an usual yearly development rate of 4.1% all over these 44 property markets.

Singapore’s prime household industry was 16th on Knight Frank’s global diagram, with the city-state recording a 5% y-o-y increase in prime housing prices last quarter.
Other metros that made up the best 10 positions include Mumbai, Perth, Delhi, Seoul, Christchurch, Dubai, Los Angeles, and Madrid.
” Manila’s strong buildup can be credited to 2 certain factors: solid economical performance, which has increased client trust and spending power, and considerable commercial infrastructure investment around the city, which has also boosted need,” claims Bailey.
” Instead of declaring a return to boom conditions, the index suggests that upwards cost stress are coming from relatively healthy and balanced demand, set against sustained low supply quantities. The pivot in fees– when it comes– will encourage even more suppliers right into the market, resulting in a welcome return to liquidity in essential international markets,” states Liam Bailey, international head of analysis at Knight Frank.
