Non-landed home rentals rise 3.4% YoY in 2024

There were 80,000 non-landed residential units rented out in 2024.

Rental transactions for non-landed private homes in 2024 rose by 3.4% year-on-year (YoY) to 80,000 units from 77,382 a year ago, Huttons reported.

Notably, transactions in the Outside Central Region (OCR) increased 0.5 percentage points (pp) in 9M2024 to 36.2%, compared to 35.7% for the whole of 2023.

According to Huttons, some tenants took advantage of the soft rents in 1H 2024 and shifted from an HDB flat or co-living space to a condo unit in 2H 2024 by paying slightly higher rents.

Meanwhile, Huttons estimates that the number of landed rental contracts in 2024 will be 4,900, similar to the 4,886 units in 2023.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
