Chart of the Day: Rental volume in private homes down 10% to 19,506 units in Q2

A bulk of it are renewals since new foreign expats were not able to enter Singapore.

This chart from OrangeTee & Tie showed that rental volume amongst private homes dipped 10% QoQ from 21,685 units in Q1 to 19,506 units in Q2.

The bulk of the rental transactions seems to be renewals since new foreign expats were not able to enter Singapore during the Circuit Breaker period, the report noted. Many tenants chose to renew their contracts to avoid the hassle of scouting for new housing, whilst some faced difficulty arranging house movers during that period should they decide to rent another place.

The overall rental index dipped 1.2% QoQ and 1.1% YoY. In addition, occupancy rates held steady at 94.6% in Q2.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
