Asia-Pacific Real Estate 2025: Confidence Rebuilds Across the Region
- International Property Alerts
- November 11, 2025
After a turbulent two years marked by higher interest rates and geopolitical uncertainty, the Asia-Pacific property market is showing real momentum.
The CBRE 2025 Asia-Pacific Investor Intentions Survey reports that net buying intentions have climbed from 5 % in 2024 to 13 % in 2025 — the strongest rebound since 2018.
(CBRE Report)
Investment Hotspots
Japan continues to anchor the region, with Tokyo and Osaka topping CBRE’s list of preferred destinations. Stable yields and a weak yen are drawing international capital.
Thailand has become Southeast Asia’s lifestyle capital. The country’s Long-Term Resident Visa and booming tourism numbers are fuelling purchases of resort property and serviced apartments.
Malaysia offers attractive entry prices and the Malaysia My Second Home programme, drawing retirees and digital-nomads alike.
Australia remains resilient. CoreLogic data (September 2025) show national dwelling prices up 3.2 % year-on-year despite rate pressure, supported by population growth and immigration recovery.
Emerging interest: Developers are increasingly exploring Indonesia, the Philippines and Vietnam for high-yield condo and mixed-use projects.
> “The energy across Asia-Pacific right now is genuine,” I said recently at an IPA partner event.
“Buyers aren’t chasing hype — they’re chasing lifestyle, flexibility and income stability. That shift makes this region one of the most investable in the world.”
Structural Drivers
1. Demographics & urbanisation – The UN projects 250 million new urban residents in APAC by 2030, creating long-term housing demand.
2. Digital-nomad economy – Countries from Japan to Indonesia are introducing flexible stay visas tied to investment or income verification.
3. Currency & yield play – Average gross rental yields across the region remain competitive, ranging from 4 % in Tokyo to 8 % in Phuket and Manila (Knight Frank APAC 2025 Data Pack).
4. Sustainability – Developers are pivoting toward ESG-compliant projects, solar-integrated resorts and low-carbon materials to attract institutional buyers.
What to Watch
China’s slowdown: Evergrande’s delisting from the Hong Kong Exchange (FT, 2025) underscores continued fragility in mainland real estate.
Geopolitical & FX risks: Investors should plan exits around currency fluctuations and local taxation.
Regulation gaps: While ownership rules are improving, transparency still varies widely across emerging markets.
Outlook to 2026
The consensus among major consultancies (CBRE, Savills, Knight Frank) is clear — APAC is moving from consolidation to controlled expansion.
The focus is now on stable growth, infrastructure investment, and long-term rental demand rather than short-term flipping.
> “Asia-Pacific isn’t just back — it’s evolving,”
“This is the region where lifestyle, returns and global mobility intersect — and investors are paying attention.”
