DBS upgrades PropNex and APAC Realty to ‘buy’ amid strong pipeline of new launches in 2025
In 2025 to 2026, the analysts also see private resale purchases remaining “secure” at 13,500 to 14,000 units. Sell-through rates might average in between 30% to 50% during release week ends, that can assist a gradual turn-around in productivity for both agencies.
” We have actually transferred the multiple in the direction of +1 standard deviation (s.d.) (versus [a] five-year average of 12 times), as the market and the company’s profitability are at an inflexion factor,” the analysts write.” [PropNex’s] FY2025/FY2026 dividend turnout of 7.7% (80% payout percentage) is attractive, with potential upside if the group decides to disperse its cash reservations (16 cents per share) to stockholders.”
On The Other Hand, APAC Real estate’s brand-new target rate stands for a greater P/E multiple of 13 times in line with its four-year historical standard on rolled-forward FY2025 earnings.
an and Foo have actually increased their target rate quotes for both PropNex and APAC Realty to $1.15 and 50 cents from 95 cents and 48 cents specifically.

” The group’s industry share in discreet new sales and resale has actually raised to 56% -60%, significantly greater than pre-pandemic levels,” note Tan and Foo for PropNex specifically, including that these amounts suggest that one in every two deals is made by a PropNex agent. With this in mind, a potential raise in market share as PropNex adds to its sales force, would certainly offer upside potential to the analysts’ quotes.
The recoil will mostly be generated by 3 main variables: reduced home mortgage fees; house owners, upgraders and permanent people purchasing homes for themselves; along with the intro of a wider selection of projects with sturdy attributes.
” We foresee a revive in overall quantities in 2025, driven by new sales going back to [near] 8,000-8,500 units annually. This is assisted by steady property rates, with variations expected in the series of +1% to +2%,” say Derek Tan and Tabitha Foo in both records dated Jan 6.
DBS Group Research has enhanced its calls on PropNex and APAC Real estate to “acquire” from “hold” as both counters are tipped to benefit from a good pipeline of new launches in 2025.
PropNex is the largest real estate agency in Singapore with around 12,000 representatives making up 34% of the nation’s market portion. APAC Realty is among the major competitors in the realty broker agent industry. It has a presence in 17 Asia Pacific (APAC) nations and one of the largest brand presences in Asia via its ERA franchise network.
