On the private housing side, condo rentals increased slightly in price, and more leases were signed. Meanwhile, HDB rentals also continued their upward trend, with more flats being rented compared to March.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While rising prices might usually slow things down, that wasn\u2019t the case this time. Despite tighter household budgets, demand stayed firm. More tenants turned to HDB flats for practical reasons, while condo demand remained healthy in some regions.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 id=\"h-condo-rental-market-sees-stable-demand-with-mild-price-growth\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Condo rental market sees stable demand with mild price growth<\/b><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"937\" height=\"493\" class=\"wp-image-85411\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/condo-rental-price-april-2025.png\" alt=\"graph depicting condo rental prices in april 2025\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Across the board, condo rental prices increased by 0.1% from the month before. But depending on the region, the changes varied a bit. In the Core Central Region (CCR), prices rose by 0.3%. In the Outside Central Region (OCR), they went up by 0.5%. Meanwhile, prices in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) stayed the same compared to March.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking at the bigger picture, condo rental prices in April 2025 were up by 2.5% compared to the same time last year. Specifically, CCR prices rose by 1.6%, RCR by 2%, and OCR by 2.9% year-on-year. So, if you\u2019ve been renting or considering renting in these areas, you\u2019ve probably felt the difference.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"964\" height=\"469\" class=\"wp-image-85412\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/condo-rental-volume-april-2025.png\" alt=\"graph depicting condo rental volume in april 2025\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But it wasn\u2019t just prices that climbed. Condo rental volume also saw a month-on-month increase of 2.7%. About 6,088 units were rented in April, up from 5,929 in March. That shows demand remains strong.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you compare this to April 2024, the rental volume was 3.6% higher. However, when stacked against the 5-year average for the month, volumes were 0.7% lower \u2013 suggesting activity was strong, but still not at historic highs.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By region, OCR took the largest share of condo rentals at 34.1%. RCR followed closely at 32.9%, while CCR made up 33% of the total. So no matter where you&#8217;re looking, condo activity remained fairly balanced across Singapore.<\/span><\/p>\r\n    <section id=\"portal-widget-tab-panel-6ad0b6cc630c9\" class=\"portal-widget-tab-panel\">\n        <div class=\"swiper-container\" id=\"swiper-container-6ad0b6cc630c9\">\n                        <div class=\"row-title-widget\">\n                <div class=\"portal-widget-carousel-title-left\"><h4 class=\"portal-widget-title\">Need a place to rent?

Whether you\u2019re renting in a mature or non-mature estate, you saw an increase. Rentals in mature estates rose by 0.4%, while those in non-mature estates went up by 0.2%.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re targeting 3- or 4-room flats, you might have felt the pinch more than others. Prices for these room types rose by 0.3% and 0.7%, respectively. Interestingly, 5-room flat rentals remained stable, while Executive flats saw a price drop of 0.9%.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compared to April 2024, HDB rental prices were up by 2.9% overall. Mature estate rentals increased by 3.5%, while non-mature estates rose by 2.3%. Every flat type saw year-on-year gains: 3-room flats by 4.1%, 4-room by 2.5%, 5-room by 2.1%, and Executive flats by 2.4%.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"978\" height=\"484\" class=\"wp-image-85414\" src=\"https:\/\/www.99.co\/singapore\/insider\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/hdb-rental-volume-april-2025.png\" alt=\"graph depicting hdb rental volume in april 2025\" \/><\/figure>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In terms of HDB rental volume, things picked up even more sharply than in the condo market. Volumes grew by 5.9% from March to April, with 2,881 flats rented in April 2025 \u2013 up from 2,720 the month before.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, when compared to the same period last year, rental volumes were 3.4% lower. And they were also 7.8% below the 5-year April average. So while more HDB flats are being rented month-on-month, the pace is still slower than in previous years.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As for the breakdown by flat type, 3-room flats made up 33.5% of the volume. 4-room flats were the most popular at 36.8%. 5-room flats followed at 24.3%, and Executive flats made up only 5.4%.<\/span><\/p>\r\n    <section id=\"portal-widget-tab-panel-6ad0b6cc63730\" class=\"portal-widget-tab-panel\">\n        <div class=\"swiper-container\" id=\"swiper-container-6ad0b6cc63730\">\n                        <div class=\"row-title-widget\">\n                <div class=\"portal-widget-carousel-title-left\"><h4 class=\"portal-widget-title\">Looking for a place?

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You might be wondering \u2013 why are volumes rising even though prices are going up too? Well, the overall HDB rental trend in Singapore shows a resilient market. More people are renting, even as prices inch up. The fundamentals remain steady, and both condo and HDB renters continue to stay active.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the condo rental space, price increases have begun to level off. But you\u2019ll want to be more cautious when landlords list high asking rents. More tenants are now choosing to walk away rather than overpay, especially in the CCR. There\u2019s a growing awareness of value, and you may find that negotiating is becoming more common.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the HDB rental side, demand is heating up \u2013 especially for 3- and 4-room flats in mature estates. These homes are often more affordable than condos and are located near transport and other amenities. If you&#8217;re a tenant looking for value, these flats offer a solid balance between space and cost.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re also not alone if you&#8217;re looking to cut back on monthly rent. With inflation and uncertainty still affecting household budgets, many tenants are choosing HDB rentals over private condos. This explains why demand for public housing continues to rise, even if prices follow suit.<\/span><\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Both HDB and condo rentals saw stronger demand in April 2025, even though prices continued to inch upwards.
