Singapore Property Market 2025: Why Safety and Trust Matter More Than Ever
The Singapore property market in 2025 remains resilient amid global uncertainties, with private home prices rising 0.6% in Q1 and forecasted annual growth between 3-7%[1][2][3]. This stability is supported by strong demand, lower mortgage rates (now averaging 2.5-2.6% after previous highs of 4%), and robust economic fundamentals[4]. As buyers gain access to more choices and new launches, the need for a trusted transaction platform like Homejourney becomes paramount.
- Private property prices are projected to rise steadily, making early, well-informed purchases attractive[1][2].
- Buyer confidence remains high, but the market is more complex with increased supply and shifting regulations[3].
- Lower mortgage rates mean timely decisions can save buyers up to S$800/month on a S$1M loan[4].
In this environment, Homejourney’s focus on verified information, transparency, and user safety is your best protection against common risks—such as misinformation, hidden costs, or unverified listings.

Actionable Steps for Safe Singapore Property Transactions
Buying property in Singapore is a major investment. Follow these tactical steps, leveraging Homejourney’s resources, to ensure a safe and successful transaction:
1. Always Use Verified Listings and Agents
Engage only with listings and agents that have been verified by Homejourney. This reduces the risk of scams and misrepresentation. You can check agent credentials and user reviews directly on the platform.
2. Conduct Thorough Property Inspections
Never skip the physical inspection. Use Homejourney’s comprehensive checklist for Singapore buyers (Essential Property Inspection Checklist for Singapore Buyers | Homejourney Guide ) to spot issues early, from structural defects to aircon servicing needs. For post-purchase peace of mind, book pre-vetted maintenance professionals via Aircon Services .
3. Secure Financing with Transparent Bank Rates
Compare mortgage packages and lock in favourable rates using Homejourney’s Bank Rates page. With 2025 rates at 2.5-2.6%, early action can save significant interest over time[4]. Understand your Total Debt Servicing Ratio (TDSR) and legal stamp duties before making an offer.
4. Verify Project Details and Market Data
Research recent launches, resale trends, and project-specific data on Homejourney’s Projects Directory . This helps you benchmark asking prices and avoid overpaying, especially in a market with rising but more moderate price growth[1][2].
5. Understand Regulatory Requirements
Stay up-to-date with Singapore’s property regulations, such as Additional Buyer’s Stamp Duty (ABSD) and loan eligibility rules. Homejourney provides regular updates and practical breakdowns so you can plan your purchase with confidence.
Key Safety Criteria When Choosing a Property Platform
To further protect your interests, evaluate every property portal or agent using these Homejourney-endorsed safety criteria:
- Listing Verification: Are all properties and agents verified?
- User Reviews: Is there a transparent feedback system?
- Customer Support: Can you easily reach support for dispute resolution?
