Welcome To Figment Club House

Modelled after the clan associations of old, the Figment Club House welcomes global citizens like you with open doors.

Work out of Figment’s ‘living-room-away-from-home’, plug into a community of like-minded members, and make friends with local creatives over takeout and drinks – all on the house.

Linghao Architects built the Club House as a ‘machine for living’ from reclaimed timber, poured concrete, bespoke terazzo and overgrown tropical hanging plants.

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 home?

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.

Is it better to rent or buy a landed house in Singapore?

Buying a landed house involves a large financial commitment that many people end up working their entire lives to pay off. Renting a home with Figment as the direct owner requires a much smaller financial outlay, especially for the short-term as you will not have to cough up the cash on a huge downpayment, and you will not be in mortgage debt for the rest of your life!

Is it better to rent or buy now?

It depends on the city and state of the economy. In Singapore, ever-increasing home prices and higher mortgage rates have made it less expensive to rent a house than buy and own one. It is highly likely that one can outperform building home equity if he/she chooses to rent a house by owner and reinvests his/her savings in the market.

How can I rent a landed house in Singapore directly by owner without an agent?

Wary of searching for a landed property with a property agent and having to pay a month's rent in commissions? With Figment, you can rent a shop-house in Singapore with us directly as an owner without an agent and no agent fee whatsoever. Simply browse our houses on offer and send in an inquiry in the form below.

Can I rent a landed house 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 home rentals with flexible lease terms and a 1-month notice period.
