How many private residential units in Singapore are freehold?

As of the latest data, the exact breakdown of the total number of private residential units in Singapore into freehold and leasehold categories is not readily available in the provided sources. However, it is well-known that a significant portion of private residential units in Singapore are leasehold, with 99-year leases being the most common.

Freehold properties, while desirable, constitute a smaller fraction of the total private residential stock. This is because much of the land in Singapore is owned by the state and leased out for various periods, typically 99 years.

For precise and up-to-date statistics, you would need to refer to official sources such as the Urban Redevelopment Authority (URA) or the Singapore Department of Statistics, which periodically release detailed reports on the housing stock in Singapore. EdgeProp Singapore often provides analyses and updates on the property market, but specific freehold versus leasehold unit counts may not be consistently reported.
