After years of declining home prices in Singapore, analysts are expecting a turnaround as early as this year even as most of the government’s property cooling measures remain in place.

Singapore property prices will rise between 5 percent and 10 percent next year after bottoming out in 2017, analyst Vikrant Pandey at UOB Kay Hian Pte said. Morgan Stanley earlier this month said home prices will climb 2 percent this year and 10 percent by the end of 2018, turning around earlier and rising faster than people expect.
