Homes near schools and MRT stations lure robust demand

This is despite lower rental volume, which fell 3.2% in May.

Private condo rents have slightly recovered in May and edged up by 0.2%, whilst rental volume dipped 3.2% in May but still remains above 4,500 units for three months already.

OrangeTee & Tie head of research & consultancy Christine Sun observed that demand has been robust in certain areas especially for homes that are near good schools and MRT stations.

“Rental renewals have also been quite strong recently, with some tenants signing even up to 3-4 year lease in the core central region,” she said.

Currently, the bigger units seemed to be more sought after, where some of the demand could be from the recently displaced en bloc owners.

“Some en bloc owners seemed to have a stronger preference for larger units in the city fringe areas or mass market region that are close to their old residence,” she added.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.

If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
