Sector Outlook
• Lack of new launching in response to soft demand
Demand for residential property remained soft in 1H23 where sales mainly were seen for the low to middle segment which offers affordable price units. Home purchase still mostly dominated by end users especially for landed housing. Meanwhile, individual investors whose targeting attractive capital gains and recurring income, continued to take a wait-and-see approach, waiting for the situation to become more suitable. In term of supply, competition has not increased significantly, as indicated by the absence of new project launches in the first quarter. The lack of new launches underscores the property market which remains stagnant. Some developers delayed the launch of new projects, preferring to focus on clearing unsold stocks. Residential prices remained essentially flat with developers focused more on boosting sales by offering attractive discounts and promotions than raising prices.

• End of era for low interest rates
Indonesian Government maintained low interest rate to support property industry during the pandemic where only until August 2022, BI rate increased to 3.75%. Annually, growth of housing and apartment loans disbursed by the banking industry experienced a rebound since the beginning of 2021 (as shown in Exhibit 151). Unfortunately, shophouse and office loans growth still consistently negative for the last three years. We believe higher mortgage interest will weigh on demand for residential property in 2024. On the other hand, commercial segment will take longer time to recover.

• LPKR and BSDE lead marketing sales driven by landed residential
Many property developers reported sluggish marketing sales in 1Q23, declined by double digits on yearly basis, primarily due to weaker residential sales. On positive note, LPKR is still on track to meet its FY23 target, recorded flat +0.3% YoY marketing sales of Rp1.21 tn as of end of March, dominated by landed housing sales. BSDE is also on track, though lower by -13.2% YoY, the Rp2.15 tn marketing sales is accounting for 24.4% of its FY23 target, with 69% contribution from residential segment.
However other developers were lagging, with PWON delivered -21.6% YoY lower pre sales at Rp298 bn, generated from Surabaya’s landed residential projects and condominiums in Jakarta. Meanwhile, SMRA and ASRI each reported -54.4%% YoY and -48.8% YoY lower marketing sales of Rp655 bn and Rp294 bn respectively.

• Low mortgage rates attract home buyers in 1Q23
According to the latest BI survey, housing loans remained the preferred form of financing for residential property purchase, dominating 74.8% of the total, followed by cash installments (17.9%) and cash (7.3%). Payment by mortgage still popular in the first quarter this year as annual mortgage rate declined to 7.74% compared to 7.98% in previous quarter (see Exhibit 152).
The total value of housing and apartment loans which was disbursed by the banking industry continues to climb in 1Q23 (see Exhibit 4), increased by 7.2% YoY, though slightly decreased from 7.7% YoY in 4Q22. However on a quarterly basis, growth of housing and apartment loans moderated to 1.7% QoQ from 2.8% QoQ in previous quarter.
Meanwhile on the supply side, most property developers continue to rely on non-bank financing in the form of internal funds for residential property development, dominating 73.3% of total capital in 1Q23.
• Developers are not hurry to sell units unless offers are reasonable
The ASP in the Jakarta CBD remained at Rp55.7 mn/sqm. Vacant spaces for sale in the CBD are actually relatively limited and are mostly on the secondary market. The low sales volume has seen the ASP stabilize at a level expected to be remain up to the end of 2022 and we expect to continue in 2023. The same trend has been also seen in outside the CBD, where the ASP has currently been recorded at Rp36 mn/sqm.

Sub-leasing becomes an attractive survival strategy during hard times in the strata-title market. Some strata-title offices set more competitive rents compared to office under lease scheme. This is intended to immediately fill the vacant spaces and help landlords or unit owners cover service charge costs.

• Flat property sales recognition due to slow project handovers
Several property developers reported earnings beat in 1Q23, including BSDE (grew 154.1% YoY to Rp884 bn), PWON (increased 60.6% YoY to Rp595 bn), LPKR (turnaround to Rp1.14 tn vs. Rp568 bn net loss a year ago) and SMRA (rose 55.2% YoY to Rp272 bn). However, the strong earnings were primarily supported by higher non-operating income while property sales were somewhat stagnant.
On the bright side, overall rental segment booked double digits growth, signaling ongoing recovery in retail space post pandemic. Office space and industrial land had not shown significant improvement in the beginning of the year. Office occupancy rate in 1Q23 suppressed at around 70% - 71% for CBD and non-CBD area, due to balanced supply-demand dynamics. We expect the occupancy rate to stay under pressure with limited demand and upcoming supply.
• Land and industrial building rental tariff
It is still not the time for estates that focus on leasing to introduce new tariffs, despite the rise in leasing activity. Current rental tariffs for land and buildings will hold steady at least until the end of the year. The fundamental basis for tariff increases does not exist at this time.

• Top picks
We believe that Indonesian economy continues to show resilience. We expect residential sales and rental segment to pick up speed while commercial space and industrial estate take longer time to recover. We maintain OVERWEIGHT on Property Sector with our top picks including BSDE, LPKR, PWON and SMRA.

The company generated the land sales from warehouse/logistics and automotive sectors with ASP of Rp2.9 mn/sqm. Nevertheless, we believe land sales should pick up in subsequent quarters judging from high level of land inquiry which reached 77 ha as of end of March 2023, signalling persistent demand in industrial estate sector. As of end of the 1Q23, BEST’s land bank amounted to 688 ha (declining from 699 ha net a year ago).

Summarecon Agung (SMRA) is the developer of one of the first and successful integrated residential townships in Jakarta, namely Summarecon Kelapa Gading. Currently company’s portfolio comprises of townships located at Greater Jakarta, West Java and outside Java, such as Bali and Makassar.
Key Points
• Recurring incomes continue to drive revenue growth
Portion of property sales/recurring income portion shifted to 59/41 in 1H23, compared to 64/36 in 1H22. Contribution from recurring income increased as investment properties segment grew 23.7% YoY to Rp1.22 tn, while leisure & hospitality jumped 63.7% YoY to Rp212 bn and other recurring incomes improved by 7.3% YoY to Rp187 bn.
• Slow marketing sales in 1H23
SMRA marketing sales showed significant improvement in 2Q23, increasing 46.6% QoQ and 9.0% YoY to Rp960 bn. The strong quarterly performance is mostly contributed by sales of landed housing and shop houses, including the launching of Cluster Strozzi in Summarecon Serpong. However by cumulative, the 1H23 marketing sales still decreased by -30.3% YoY to Rp1.61 tn, achieving only 32% of the FY23 target. As such, we are less optimistic that the company will meet its marketing sales target of Rp5.0 tn this year.
