Asked by
I am currently staying in a 5 room HDB flat and had recently purchased a 2 room condo, 57sq m at Kovan Grandeur.We are unsure if the HDB flat can be rented out easily if we decided to shift in after the condo completion. Which one will have a better rental yield, 5 rm HDB or 2 rm condo ? Do you think we should continue staying in the HDB flat and rent out the condo instead ?

Hi Angeline,

If your 5rm HDB flat is near to MRT station, this will make it easier to rent it out too.

Cheers,

Evening Angeline,

As for your requiries, it would depend on the location of both your HDB and condo. This would determine your possible tenant profile and the possible rental amount.

Do feel free to contact me if you do require my assistance.

Dear Angeline,

I will only bother about rental yield BEFORE buying a property. Once bought, and i am deciding between which property to rent out, i would consider rental income in terms of actual DOLLARS rather than yield ( for the reason that the capital cost is already cast in stone) - does that make sense to you?

In my assessment, i believe your 2-bdr condo can fetch higher rental than your 5RM HDB, if you are willing to compromise on the lifestyle factor.

I would love to assist you with marketing of whichever you eventually choose to rent out. Pse get in touch soon!

Cheers,
