    REALTOR.ca for an Abu Dhabi townhouse search: useful history, unclear freshness

    I wanted REALTOR.ca to give me a clean shortlist of Abu Dhabi townhouses, but I kept finding what looked like the same unit more than once, uncertain availability and floor areas that were not clearly defined. The sold-price history was still useful for judging the asking prices. My current...

    São Paulo warehouses: does lease length matter more than a 0.3% price move?

    Neighbourhood boundaries may be distorting this more than the headline movement. Two warehouses both labelled São Paulo can face very different demand depending on access, surrounding uses and condition. I would split the sample into vacant and tenanted properties, then record the rent...

    What changed in Singapore this month? My sample is at 101 days

    I agree about the visibility bias, but completed sales alone will not settle it. A unit may find a buyer well before completion, especially if financing or other conditions take time. The useful comparison would be original listing date, first price cut, apparent agreement date where known, and...

For the purchase stage, I would want named contacts, negotiation responsibilities, milestone updates, document coordination...

    First post from Singapore

    I’d actually decide on that intended use before going deeply into datasets. A mixed-use building can look attractive in a price comparison while raising very different questions about management, renovation limits and the surrounding commercial activity. Once you have a shortlist, compare like...

    Singapore 2-bed at S$1.099m renting for S$5,165/month — what am I missing?

    The gross calculation is right: S$5,165 × 12 is S$61,980, or about 5.6% of S$1,099,000. The likely gap is that the purchase price alone is not your full capital outlay, while rent is not fully collectible income. I’d want the actual property tax, insurance and any recurring building charges...
