Frequently Asked Questions

Read our Rental Guide To Apartments For Rent In Singapore

What’s included in the rental rate?

You get a furnished room or apartment that’s move-in ready. WiFi, utilities, and weekly cleaning of the common areas are all included. We’ll also provide one free set of bedding and towels, basic household essentials and a welcome gift bag. Your rent includes use of shared laundry, kitchen facilities, living and dining areas. New members also enjoy free access to our members-only ‘living-room-away-from-home’, Figment Club House.

What type of social life can I expect?

We hope you’ll get to know your fellow housemates as soon as you move in. The Figment Club House is a members-only ‘homespace’ for you to meet the Figment community. You're also invited to our curated events. Think private dining with local chefs or book-binding classes hosted by independent creatives. Through these events, we hope you’ll get to know more Figment members from other homes.

Tell me more about the Figment member community!

You will be joining a creative community of open-minded, well-travelled professionals. Creative souls from diverse backgrounds in tech, finance, design, and other knowledge industries. Although most members are in their thirties, many are in their sixties and seventies! Rather than our age though, what matters is our shared appreciation of art and culture. It helps to bring a sense of adventure going off the beaten track of cookie-cutter condo living.

Wait a minute, isn’t this just coliving with others?

Not so much, this is Figment’s vision of shared housing for grown-ups. We are not slicing and dicing apartments into cages just to stuff two hundred people into a building. With Figment you always have room to breathe. Socialise as much as you like, or choose to retire to your private studio within a huge 3000ft² shophouse.

Can I work in the common area?

Most definitely. We think you'd figure out a nice arrangement with your housemates if they would also like to work there.

How do I book a stay?

Enquire with us by clicking the orange button on the top right. You would already need to know your budget and expected move-in date. We’ll give you a call within the next business day for us to get to know you better, followed by a viewing if you wish. You’ll be able to book on the spot if you like what you see.

What is a one-bedroom apartment?

A 1-bedroom apartment features a separate bathroom and bedroom; some 1-BRs provide a kitchen area that is apart from the living area, while other one-bedroom apartments tend to be more "open concept," having a kitchen that is open to the living area.

Who are 1-bedroom apartments for?

1-bedroom apartments are the perfect rental option for singles and couples. Figment’s furnished 1-bedroom apartments are spacious enough to accommodate couples and even co-sharing friends.

How many can live in a one-bedroom apartment?

Our shophouse one-bedroom apartment rentals can comfortably accommodate up to two people. You might find that sharing a studio with your significant other would be much easier than sharing one with a close friend. That said, Figment provides spacious shared living areas for you to let loose beyond the confines of your apartment.

What is the difference between a 1-bedroom and a studio apartment?

The main difference between a 1-BR apartment and a studio is that a 1-bedroom apartment provides a closed off bedroom area that is away from the dining room, kitchen and living area. On the other hand, studios are generally a self-contained apartment that houses everything including a kitchenette within a single apartment with an attached bathroom.

Should i get a studio or 1-bedroom apartment?

If you want to invite your friends over often and rental pricing is less of a concern for you, a 1-bedroom apartment makes better sense overall.
However, If you will be living alone or with one roommate whom you're totally comfortable with and would like to save the most money you can, we'd suggest a studio apartment as your best bet.

Where can I find the cheapest 1-bedroom apartments for rent?

Figment provides plenty of affordable one-bedroom apartment rentals starting from $1,500 monthly with no agent fee. However, if you are looking for the cheapest apartments for rent under $1,500 in Singapore, here are some good places to start.
Rental Property Platforms such as Carousell, 99.co and PropertyGuru
Usually, the quality and number of amenities and options should improve as you move further East. Make sure to do some price research on the area in question on URA’s website so you don’t get ripped off. You might also want to use a property agent to help with your search.

Can I rent a one-bedroom apartment in Singapore as a foreigner?

According to the Council for Estate Agencies, to rent property in Singapore, you need to be a Singapore citizen or permanent resident. Non-citizens may rent if they hold an employment or work permit like an S-pass, a student pass, dependent pass or long term social visit pass. That said, even with foreigners holding legal residence, the problem is that most Singapore landlords may not be too pleased with a month-to-month lease agreement and would typically require at least a 1 or 2 year contract. Figment provides a much-needed, flexible alternative for apartment rentals with flexible lease terms and a 1-month notice period.
