Recovery holds as opportunities become more selective
The Asia Pacific real estate market entered 2026 with strong momentum and according to the TIME Score, remains in a stabilisation phase. Resilience is holding despite macroeconomic headwinds, but the opportunity set is becoming increasingly selective.
Financing conditions and rising rates have introduced volatility, yet occupier fundamentals remain supportive. Transactional activity and capital flows continue to underpin momentum across the region.
The latest data reflects a maturing cycle. The APAC All-Property TIME Score remains at 3.0, signalling a stabilisation phase, while the Fair Value Index holds around 60, indicating that although opportunities remain, markets are coalescing towards fair value.
- TIME Score (Timing the Investment Market Entry/Exit) is a forward-looking measure that helps investors identify where each market sits in the property cycle.
- Fair Value Index (FVI) assesses the relative attractiveness of current pricing in prime office, retail, and industrial markets against long-term expected returns and risk-adjusted benchmarks.
