Condo rents fall 4.2% YoY in Q3

Savills expects the YoY rent change to stabilise in the next quarters.

Condo rents for one-to-three-bedroom units dipped 4.2% year-on-year (YoY) in Q3 whilst rents fell 4.3% for one-to-five-bedroom units, according to Savills.

Overall, rents for one-to-three-bedroom units in the Core Central Region (CCR) fell by 1.5%; whilst the Rest of Central Region (RCR) and Outside Central Region (OCR) saw increases of 1% and 0.3%, respectively.

In the RCR, the average median rent for three-bedroom units in Districts 5, 8, and 13 increased by 3.8% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ). Rents in District 21 grew the most (4.2%) QoQ.

The largest growth can be seen in the OCR where the average median rents for three-bedroom units in Districts 28 and 14 grew by 5.3% and 4.4% QoQ respectively.

"Although rents are generally turning the corner on a QoQ basis, they are still below what they were a year ago," Savills noted.

“Over the next few quarters, we may see the YoY rent change begin to stabilise and hover around a + or – 1% difference."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

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.
