It was the night of property stars and accolades as Property Guru’s Asia Property Awards Singapore kicked off. In its twelfth edition, the celebration began with a gala dinner and awards presentation on 28 October 2022. The event was supported by Kohler and Mitsubishi Electric Asia Pte Ltd.

The highly anticipated gala dinner and presentation at the Shangri-La Singapore ballroom witnessed distinguished real estate developers and projects across 42 categories.

UOL Group Limited snagged the Best Developer Award, their third win in this category after maintaining the coveted title in 2012 and 2019. The company also won the new title of Best Transnational Developer as well as the Best Hospitality Developer award, buoyed by its project Pan Pacific Orchard, which won the Best Hotel Development award. The company also won two Special Recognitions.

In addition, UOL Group Limited, Singapore Land Group Limited, and Kheng Leong Company won three awards for their projects Amo Residence and The Watergardens at Canberra.

In the category for Best Luxury Developer, Guocoland clinched the title, including Best Sustainable Developer, and Best Mixed-Use Developer, in addition to two Special Recognitions. The esteemed developer was also awarded the highly competitive Best Condo Development (Singapore) title for Meyer Mansion, plus two awards.

Belgravia Ace by Fairview Developments Pte Ltd (a unit of Tong Eng Group) was named Best Housing Development (Singapore), another highly sought-after title, and Best Strata Housing Development. Fairview Developments Pte Ltd (a unit of Tong Eng Group) was named Best Landed Developer.

Park Nova by Shun Tak Holdings won across three categories, including Best Ultra Luxury Condo Development. Meanwhile, The Assembly Place was named Best Co-Living Operator and received the Best Heritage Co-Living Space award for 138-142 Jalan Besar.

Another highlight was CEO of Aurum Land and CEO and founder of Core Collective, Michelle Yong, came forth to receive the golden statuette for Singapore Real Estate Personality of the Year — a prestigious title decided by the editorial team of Property Report by Property Guru, the official magazine of the Awards. Yong was recognised for modernising Aurum Land into an actual space and business innovator and contributing to Singapore’s co-sharing economy.

Yong quipped, “I believe that what matters most in life is the depth of your relationships and the sheer number of people you have helped along the way — it is the true measure of wealth — and that as business leaders, we have the privilege and duty to impact so many more people more deeply. I hope to live up to the legacy of this award and its past recipients by continuing to lead from the heart and build supportive environments that create change, advance communities, and accelerate growth.”
