If you wish to rent an HDB flat from the open market and do not know the market rents, you may check out the median rents available at HDB InfoWEB to help you with flat hunting and rent negotiation. Visit www.hdb.gov.sg and look under HOME OWNERS>HDB Housing Market Statistics. The list of median subletting rents is based on information provided by flat owners who sublet their flats. It is meant as a
reference only.
RICKY TEO -RENTS SEEM DIFFERENT
ReplyDeleteI refer to the HDB advertorial,“Median rent from subletting of flat” (Aug 29). I am afraid it does not present a true picture of the high rentals of HDB flats now. The median rents in the chart are way off actual rentals transacted across the island.If the chart was based on estimated rentals provided by owners, then the owners had probably undervalued the rents they had expected to receive.
