## Featured rationale

Strong leasing growth for smaller CCR apartments signals concentrated tenant demand that may support prime-area rents while rental performance remains weaker in the RCR and OCR.

Rents rose 1.4% in Q2 as Orchard/Cairnhill led growth.

Savills' basket of high-end non-landed residential properties recorded a 1.4% quarter-on-quarter increase in average monthly rents to S$6.24 per sq ft. This marked the seventh consecutive quarter of rental growth. Orchard/Cairnhill recorded the strongest increase among sub-markets, with rents rising 2.6%, while River Valley rents edged up 0.1%.

Singapore's private residential rental market extended its growth momentum in the second quarter of 2026, with islandwide rents for non-landed private homes rising 0.4% quarter-on-quarter, according to Savills, citing Urban Redevelopment Authority data.

The increase matched the 0.4% growth recorded in the first quarter, although rental performance varied significantly across market segments. Rents in the Core Central Region (CCR) rose 1.2% quarter-on-quarter, accelerating from 0.5% in Q1. Rents in the Rest of Central Region (RCR) were unchanged, reversing a 0.2% decline in Q1, while rents in the Outside Central Region (OCR) fell 0.3%, compared with 1% growth in the previous quarter.

Savills said the stronger CCR performance was likely driven by robust leasing demand for smaller apartments. Leasing transactions for one-bedroom units rose 10.1% quarter-on-quarter to 1,588 in Q2, while transactions for two-bedroom units increased 15.6% to 2,113.

Median rents for these smaller units also strengthened, rising 0.7% for one-bedroom homes and 3.3% for two-bedroom homes during the quarter, according to Savills. By comparison, leasing activity in the RCR and OCR grew more moderately, while rental growth was weaker.

In the RCR, median rents for one- and two-bedroom units fell 0.2% and 1.1%, respectively. In the OCR, one-bedroom rents declined 1%, while two-bedroom rents edged up 0.4%.

Savills said the active leasing market and continued demand for smaller units were key features of the quarter, with the CCR benefiting most from this trend.

### 新加坡高端非有地住宅租金连续第七个季度上涨

第一太平戴维斯高端非有地住宅样本组合的平均月租金环比上涨1.4%，至每平方英尺新币6.24元。这标

第二季度租金上涨1.4%，乌节/凯恩斯希尔领涨。

第一太平戴维斯（Savills）高端非有地住宅样本组合的平均月租金环比上涨1.4%，至每平方英尺新币6.24元。这标志着租金连续第七个季度增长。各子市场中，乌节/凯恩斯希尔（Orchard/Cairnhill）涨幅最强，租金上升2.6%，而河谷（River Valley）租金仅微升0.1%。

据第一太平戴维斯援引市区重建局数据，新加坡私人住宅租赁市场在2026年第二季度延续增长动能，全岛非有地私人住宅租金环比上涨0.4%。

该涨幅与第一季度录得的0.4%增长持平，不过各市场板块的租金表现差异显著。核心中央区（CCR）租金环比上涨1.2%，较第一季度的0.5%加速；中央区其他地区（RCR）租金持平，扭转了第一季度0.2%的跌幅；而中央区以外地区（OCR）租金下跌0.3%，相比上一季度则录得1%增长。

第一太平戴维斯表示，核心中央区表现较强，可能受到小型公寓强劲租赁需求的推动。一房单位租赁成交量环比上升10.1%，至第二季度的1,588宗；两房单位成交量上升15.6%，至2,113宗。

据第一太平戴维斯，这些小型单位的租金中位数亦有所增强，本季度一房住宅上涨0.7%，两房住宅上涨3.3%。相比之下，中央区其他地区及中央区以外地区的租赁活动增长更为温和，租金增长亦较弱。

在中央区其他地区，一房和两房单位的租金中位数分别下跌0.2%和1.1%。在中央区以外地区，一房租金下跌1%，两房租金则微升0.4%。

第一太平戴维斯表示，活跃的租赁市场及对小型单位的持续需求是本季度的主要特征，核心中央区从这一趋势中受益最多。
