Renting a resale flat, you do not get back anything should you decide not to renew the lease, while purchasing a resale flat, you can potentially get back some costs put into the unit or even rent it out to collect rental should you decide to move out without selling, however, it definitely boils down to the final rented price or purchase price, do the maths and multiply by the number of months left in the lease then we will know which option is cheaper.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi,

It depends on your definition of the time frame "long run", and also the location of the flat that you purchase.

However, in most cases, it makes sense to purchase than to rent.

I am experienced and well-versed in both HDB and private transactions. I will be able to assist you in your property plans.

Should you need require further assistance in matters relating to property, please contact me at my mobile 9748 6305  . I will be happy to assess and share with you the possibilities for you in the current market.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Renting is just a sunk cost, but it'd be a better option if you can make more money with the cash & cpf on hand.

Feel free to contact me to discuss further.

Hi

In most scenarios, purchasing a resale if you can afford is always better than renting. Besides the obvious reason of you being able to use your CPF to service your loan, I also do realised most HDB owners are serving their monthly mortgage at a much lower price than the rental market price should the rent a flat of the same size in the open market. Another obvious reason is you can always sell off your flat and get some proceeds in the form of CPF or cash even when your property depreciates in value while that option does not exists in renting a flat. Do contact me at 93375051  for a free and non obligatory discussions on this.
