There are several accommodation options available to you. You may find that you qualify for accommodation provided by your institution of study such as a boarding school, school hostel or
Halls of Residence. Depending on your budget and personal circumstances, you may also consider
staying in a private hostel or renting private housing– landed property, apartments, condominiums and
serviced apartments. A more affordable option inthis category is to rent privately from tenants of
Housing Development Board (HDB) flats. In accordance with HDB guidelines, you can rent a room in a HDB flat or the entire flat. For very shortterm needs, a room in a hotel may be the preferred option.
Housing Development Board (HDB)
The Housing Development Board (HDB) is the government body providing subsidised, affordable
homes of high quality to 84% of Singapore’s population. Integrated into environments that meet
modern lifestyle needs, each estate is a vibrant hub of community life and activity, carefully landscaped to make a better home for all.
Eligibility to Rent HDB Flats
Before you rent a HDB apartment, you should know the legal limitations on the landlord. Subletting the whole flat: HDB flat owners must seek approval from the respective HDB Branch Office before subletting their whole flat. Ask to see the approval or in-principle letter before you sign any contract.
Subletting bedrooms: HDB approval is not required for subletting of bedroom/s but the flat owners must continue to live in the flat during the period of subletting. The maximum number of bedrooms that can be sublet and the maximum number of occupiers* allowed in each flat depends on their flat type.
Private Housing – Landed Property, Apartments & Condominiums
An alternative is to rent a privately owned apartment or house directly from the owner. This can be an expensive option, so sharing with fellow students helps to spread the cost. These properties can be found advertised in the newspapers, online, on supermarket notice boards, or by hiring a property agent.
