City-state seen as safer investment destination in turbulent world
Mega office deals helped drive foreign investment in local real estate to its highest level since 2007.
About $8.85 billion from overseas has been pumped into Singapore property so far this year - the best result since the $15.27 billion outlay in 2007, before the global financial crisis hit.
Analysts say the pace of foreign investment could well carry over into next year, depending on how the economy fares.
