Grills Off, Deals On

Global real estate did not take the long weekend off. Today’s DIGIS Daily Market Update covers steady U.S. mortgage rates into a data-heavy week, Hong Kong’s largest office lease of 2025 (FWD at Taikoo Place), and three headline transactions: CDL’s sale of its South Beach stake in Singapore to IOI Properties, a record secondary-market villa resale on Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah, and GuocoLand’s announced divestment of the Thistle Johor Bahru hotel to YTL. We also outline what’s ahead (ISM, Beige Book, jobs) and close with a practical “hot sales idea” you can use now: pair a 2-1 buydown with a light refi rate-match to unlock stalled listings.Happy selling!Teresa Grobecker, MBA, CRPC.
