At this rate, we might even see a Christie’s location in Malaysia soon

Christie’s International Real Estate has officially launched its Singapore office, marking a pivotal moment in its Southeast Asia expansion. Set within a beautifully refurbished historic shophouse on China Street in Singapore’s Central Business District (CBD), the new branch will focus on luxury residential brokerage and global investment opportunities, leveraging Christie’s extensive international network.

In Good Hands

The Singapore venture is spearheaded by Harmeet Singh Bedi and Dipika Bedi, along with Himmat Singh and Rohini Singh, who previously led Christie’s affiliate in India. This team brings a wealth of experience

Moreover, Himmat and Rohini Singh offer over 25 years in luxury real estate, while Harmeet Singh Bedi brings more than 30 years of expertise in banking and real estate investment, including a recent role as CEO of Prime US REIT Management Pte. Ltd. Dipika Bedi adds over 20 years in advertising, marketing, and art sales.

A Prime Location

The launch comes as Singapore’s luxury real estate market continues to flourish, bolstered by its high living standards, stable political climate, strong economy, and favourable tax policies. The city-state is renowned for its high-value properties, such as the prestigious Good Class Bungalows (GCBs), which range from SGD35 million to SGD65 million.

On top of that, recent transactions, including the sale of 32 Gilstead units for SGD14 million each and Kew Lodge for SGD66.8 million, highlight the robust demand for prime real estate. Developments like the redevelopment of 19 Nassim and new launches in Marina Bay and River Valley reinforce Singapore’s appeal as a luxury real estate hotspot.

Opening Remarks

Harmeet Singh Bedi emphasised, “Singapore’s luxury market demands the highest service standards, which Christie’s International Real Estate is known for.” Himmat Singh added that the timing is perfect for reintroducing the Christie’s brand in Singapore, given the market’s dynamism and the need for global investment opportunities.

Christie’s International Real Estate Singapore will provide clients with extensive national and international exposure through its global network of brokerages and exclusive marketing partnerships. The firm’s connection with Christie’s auction house also offers unique synergies between high-end real estate, art, and luxury goods.
