## Featured rationale

Stronger leasing activity signals resilient tenant demand, although larger completion pipelines of 8,440 units in 2027 and 9,856 in 2028 may moderate rents.

Rents rose by 0.7% in Q2 alone.

Singapore's private residential leasing market remained resilient in the second quarter of 2026, with rents and leasing activity both increasing, according to PropNex's analysis of Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) data.

The URA private residential rental index showed overall rents rose 0.7% quarter-on-quarter in Q2, accelerating from the 0.3% increase recorded in the first quarter. PropNex said cumulative rental growth reached 1.0% in the first half of 2026, compared with 1.2% over the same period last year.

Landed homes led rental growth, with rents increasing 2.7% during the quarter, while non-landed home rents rose by a more modest 0.4%.

Leasing demand also strengthened, with URA Realis data showing 22,290 rental contracts for landed and non-landed private homes, excluding executive condominiums, were signed in Q2. This represented a 5.1% increase from the 21,203 contracts recorded in the previous quarter.

Looking ahead, PropNex expects leasing demand to remain relatively resilient, with rentals likely to stay broadly stable in the near term despite a moderate pipeline of 5,012 new private homes due for completion in the second half of 2026. However, the consultancy noted that a larger wave of new supply is expected in 2027 and 2028, when 8,440 and 9,856 units respectively are projected to be completed.

### 新加坡私人住宅租金2026上半年增长1.0%

新加坡私人住宅租赁市场在2026年第二季保持韧性，租金与租赁活动均上升，据P

租金仅在第二季就上涨0.7%。

根据傲富（PropNex）对市区重建局（URA）数据的分析，新加坡私人住宅租赁市场在2026年第二季保持韧性，租金与租赁活动均上升。

URA私人住宅租金指数显示，第二季整体租金按季上涨0.7%，增速高于第一季录得的0.3%升幅。傲富表示，2026上半年累计租金增长达1.0%，而去年同期为1.2%。

有地住宅引领租金增长，当季租金上涨2.7%，非有地住宅租金则较温和上涨0.4%。

租赁需求亦增强，URA Realis数据显示，第二季有地与非有地私人住宅（不含执行共管公寓）共签署22,290份租约。这较上一季的21,203份增加5.1%。

展望未来，傲富预计租赁需求将保持相对韧性，尽管2026下半年预计有5,012个新私人住宅单位完工，但短期内租金料大致稳定。不过，该顾问公司指出，2027年与2028年将迎来更大规模的新供应，预计分别有8,440个与9,856个单位完工。
