Rent for non-landed private homes continues to fall
Rent for non-landed private homes in Singapore continued to slip in July, especially in the suburban region, based on estimates by SRX Property. It is predicted that leasing volume will fall further, as rents fall even more. Experts have also noted that landlords have become flexible in a highly competitive market where tenants have more options and have smaller budgets.
