An office is a Business-use commercial property under URA's own classification, and that one label carries almost every practical consequence on this page. Because it is not residential property, an office purchase skips nearly all of the citizenship machinery that dominates buying a home: no Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty at any rate, no Seller's Stamp Duty at any holding period, no Singapore Land Authority approval gate for a foreign buyer. What replaces that machinery is a different set of questions entirely — grade, tenure, tenancy, and whether you are occupying the space yourself or renting it out to someone who is. This page covers the mechanics, who can buy, what it costs going in and coming out, how banks finance it, what you can and cannot change about it once you own it, and the same twelve-question frame this site applies to every asset, in the order the operator has fixed for it.

The mechanics

URA defines an office as premises used for administrative work — its own examples are banks, finance offices, real estate companies, employment agencies and marketing offices. That definition matters beyond labelling: an industrial building or a Business Park unit cannot legally be used as office premises at all, because that use is treated as incompatible with the site's planning intention, and converting a retail or industrial unit into an office needs a URA change-of-use application, covered below. What you can buy sits in three tiers. Grade A core-CBD floors, in towers such as Suntec or Marina One, trade at roughly S$2,800 to S$3,500 psf on a 3.5% to 4.5% gross yield. Grade B fringe-CBD stock, buildings like International Plaza or Lippo Centre, runs S$1,800 to S$2,500 psf at 4.5% to 5.5%. Grade C, the older 99-year strata blocks such as Sim Lim Tower or Peninsula Plaza, trades at S$1,200 to S$1,700 psf but a higher 5.5% to 7.0% yield — compensation for vacancy risk, capital-expenditure exposure, tenure decay and a thinner exit market, not a free lunch. A single strata floor or a whole building, freehold or leasehold, are all live structures; which one you're looking at changes almost every number on this page.

The market itself moved in a mixed direction through the second quarter of 2026: office rents rose 0.8% quarter on quarter, reversing a 0.2% fall the quarter before, and prices rose 0.4%. Islandwide vacancy nonetheless rose to 11.0% from 10.8%, as 19,000 sq m of new supply outpaced 8,000 sq m of net absorption, ending four straight quarters of tightening — but core CBD Grade A vacancy held at a record-low 3.3%, still landlord-favourable for prime space. About 848,000 sq m GFA remained in the development pipeline. By submarket, mid-2026 asking figures run roughly S$9 to S$13 psf a month and S$1,700 to S$3,600 psf in Tanjong Pagar at a 4.0% to 5.0% yield; S$11 to S$15 psf and S$2,000 to S$4,600 psf in Raffles Place at 2.5% to 4.5%; and a similar range in Shenton Way. A reported 2025 Suntec City transaction anchors what a Grade A floor actually changes hands at: three high-floor strata units totalling 10,097 sq ft, marketed together at S$34.83 million, or S$3,450 psf combined, fully tenanted at up to 3.8% gross yield.

One structural point matters for anyone buying with a long horizon: since URA Circular DC22-02 (15 March 2022), the commercial component of developments in defined parts of the Central Area — the Orchard Road corridor, the CBD corridor along Shenton Way, Robinson Road, Anson Road and Raffles Quay, and sites near named landmarks — can no longer be newly strata-subdivided. Buildings already strata-titled there keep their existing subdivision, but a future redevelopment on one of those sites will not be able to carve out individual strata offices the way older Grade B and C stock in those precincts was sold. That bears directly on the redevelopment question covered under Control, below.

Eligibility

SLA's own foreign-ownership list places industrial and commercial property in the same no-approval category as condominium and flat units: a foreign individual, company or trust buying or holding an office unit needs no Land Dealings Approval Unit approval at all, unlike landed housing, vacant residential land or a serviced apartment, which sit on SLA's approval-needed list. Anyone — Singapore Citizen, Permanent Resident, foreigner, or a Singapore-incorporated company — can buy an office on the open market on the same footing. If you buy through a company rather than in your own name, that company needs at least one director ordinarily resident in Singapore (a Citizen, PR, or an Employment Pass, Personalised Employment Pass or ONE Pass holder who qualifies) and a qualified company secretary, plus a registered office address of its own — a physical Singapore address able to receive statutory correspondence from ACRA, IRAS and MOM. The unit you are buying can serve as that registered office, but the two are separate legal requirements; owning the property doesn't automatically satisfy the company-law one.

Citizenship status: Singapore Citizen, PR, foreigner, FTA nationals

This is the section that, on a residential page, runs to tiered rates and refund clocks by buyer profile. On an office it is short, because Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty reaches residential property only, under a Stamp Duties Act definition keyed to permitted use or zoning — an office's permitted use is not residential, so ABSD does not reach it for any buyer type: Singapore Citizen, Permanent Resident, foreigner, FTA national, entity or trust, regardless of how many other properties any of them already own. That single fact collapses the citizenship question that otherwise dominates a Singapore property purchase: a US, Swiss, Liechtenstein, Norwegian or Icelandic national — the nationalities Singapore's free trade agreements require to be taxed as citizens for ABSD — pays exactly what a Singapore Citizen pays here, because the rate for everyone is nil. What citizenship still changes is financing, not tax: banks are reported financing local buyers of strata office at 60% to 70% loan-to-value, tightening to roughly 50% to 60% for a foreign buyer, with the difference in equity funded entirely in cash, since CPF cannot be used by anyone regardless of residency status.

Taxes

Buyer's Stamp Duty on non-residential property runs the same first four marginal bands as a home — 1% on the first S$180,000, 2% on the next S$180,000, 3% on the next S$640,000, 4% on the next S$500,000 — but stops at a flat 5% above S$1.5 million, without the 5% and 6% top bands residential BSD adds above S$1.5 million and S$3 million. On a S$3 million office, that difference alone is worth tens of thousands of dollars against an equivalent-priced home. Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty is nil, as above. Seller's Stamp Duty does not apply either: SSD reaches residential property on one schedule and industrial property on a separate one (15% in year 1, tapering to nil after three years for a warehouse or factory); a pure office sits in neither schedule and can be sold the day after completion with no SSD at any rate — a materially cleaner exit than either a home's up-to-four-year SSD tail or a B1 industrial unit's three-year one. [⚠ sa.bsd.nonresidential_schedule_2026: sources differ; awaiting a ruling]

Property tax is flat: non-residential property, including an office, is taxed at 10% of Annual Value, with no owner-occupier concession the way an owner-occupied home gets one — the rate is identical whether you occupy the unit yourself or rent it out. Rental income is taxed as ordinary income, not on a special property schedule: held in your own name it is added to your other income at personal marginal rates; held through a Singapore-resident company it is taxed at the flat 17% corporate rate, and dividends the company then pays out are tax-exempt in your hands under the one-tier system, because the company's own tax is treated as final. GST sits on top of both routes where it applies: registration becomes compulsory once a person's taxable turnover crosses S$1 million, and the sale or lease of commercial property, office included, is a taxable supply once the seller or landlord is GST-registered — a GST-registered buyer can generally recover the 9% as input tax, but an individual or non-registered buyer absorbs it as a real cost, and a straightforward sale of a single leased-out office rarely qualifies for the transfer-of-a-going-concern relief that would otherwise excuse it.

Borrowing

Commercial property loans, office included, carry no MAS-prescribed loan-to-value ceiling the way a home loan does; MAS Notice 645 sets an outer 80% cap, and within it banks set their own limits by internal risk policy. In practice, two commercial mortgage-broker guides report 60% to 80% for prime office space specifically, and major local banks are reported actually underwriting strata office purchases at 60% to 70%, tightening toward 50% for Grade C buildings or units with under 35 years of lease remaining. Total Debt Servicing Ratio still binds an individual borrower at the same 55% ceiling as a home loan, but MAS applies a higher 5% medium-term interest-rate floor for a non-residential property loan against 4% for residential — a company borrower is not subject to TDSR or the LTV limit at all, provided it is a genuine operating company and not a sole proprietorship or shell company MAS treats as an individual for this purpose. The Mortgage Servicing Ratio never applies at all: MSR is specific to HDB and Executive Condominium purchases. CPF Ordinary Account savings cannot fund any part of an office purchase or its instalments — CPF Board's own list of approved housing uses for OA covers property purchase, downpayment, loan repayment and stamp and legal fees, but only for housing; an office is not on that list.

A worked example from a commercial-property guide: a S$2,000,000 Grade B unit at 70% LTV needs S$600,000 equity plus roughly S$54,600 BSD and S$4,000 to S$7,000 legal and valuation cost, for total cash of about S$660,000; at 60% LTV, more typical of Grade C stock, the cash requirement rises past S$860,000 — all of it cash, since CPF is unavailable. Loan tenure is capped at 25 to 30 years, or the remaining lease less five years, whichever is shorter, on a leasehold site. Commercial mortgage pricing runs roughly 100 to 150 basis points above an equivalent residential rate, whether the loan is fixed for an initial lock-in period or floats on SORA thereafter; the phase that matters most is what happens once any fixed period ends and the loan reverts to a floating or a repriced rate, which is exactly the reversion rate TDSR's floor is designed to stress-test against.

Renovation, addition and alteration, and redevelopment

Fit-out cost is reported in tiers rather than a single figure: a basic refit — paint, carpet, light partitions, a suburban Tier-B office — runs S$60 to S$100 psf over four to six weeks; a standard fit-out with meeting rooms and proper mechanical and electrical work runs S$100 to S$180 psf over eight to twelve weeks; a premium CBD Grade A fit-out with bespoke carpentry and integrated AV runs S$180 to S$280 psf over twelve to sixteen weeks; and a headquarters-grade fit-out on a large floor runs S$280 to S$450 psf over sixteen to twenty-four weeks, plus a further 10% to 15% on top for design fees, permits, project management and contingency. A separate reading from Cushman & Wakefield prices Singapore's fit-out cost in US dollars — a basic hybrid fit-out at about US$102 psf, mid-range at about US$140, premium at up to about US$212 — and states plainly that Singapore carries the highest fit-out cost in Southeast Asia; the currency and basis don't reconcile cleanly against the SGD contractor figures above, so treat both as directional rather than as a single settled number. If you ever let the unit out, budget separately for the reinstatement clause a tenant leaves you with at lease end, or that you will owe a landlord if you are ever the tenant elsewhere: typically S$10 to S$30 psf, or roughly S$30,000 to S$90,000 on a 3,000 sq ft unit.

Changing what the unit is used for — turning a retail-zoned strata unit into an office, or adding ancillary office space to an industrial or Business Park unit — needs a URA change-of-use application: an owner's consent letter, landowner consent where the site sits on JTC, SLA or HDB land, submission through GoBusiness with location and floor plans, and clearance from agencies such as SCDF, LTA and NEA as applicable. The reported fee is S$500, non-refundable, with processing generally 10 working days, longer where multiple agencies are involved; operating on an unapproved use before written approval breaches the Planning Act, with fines reported up to S$200,000 plus daily penalties. Which exact route applies depends on the building: a shophouse, a State property or an HDB commercial premises needs the landowner's consent but no separate URA planning permission; an ordinary commercial building or mixed development may qualify for URA's instant Change of Use Lodgment or else need a full application; Business Park land owned by JTC needs JTC's consent instead of URA's; and putting an office into an industrial building or a Business Park unit itself is not permitted at all. URA's own advice is not to commit to a tenancy or to renovation works before the change-of-use decision is actually in hand.

An office doesn't rebuild the way a landed house does; a strata title means you are one of many owners, and any large-scale redevelopment has to run through the building as a whole, not your one floor. URA's CBD Incentive Scheme, updated as CBDI 2.0 in 2025, offers a 25% to 30% Gross Floor Area bonus to redevelop an office building at least 20 years old, on a 1,000 to 2,000 sq m site, in defined parts of the Anson, Cecil Street, Robinson Road, Shenton Way or Tanjong Pagar precincts — from 2025, Anson and Cecil Street buildings may even fold in long-stay service apartments. The catch: a condition reported for the scheme is that the building not be strata-subdivided, so a strata-titled Grade C block cannot apply for the GFA bonus directly. It would first need a collective sale to consolidate ownership into a single seller, the same route a strata home takes toward redevelopment — and, since March 2022, a building in the newly protected Central Area precincts that hasn't already been strata-subdivided can't be split up that way again even after a fresh redevelopment.

Conveyancing

Private property conveyancing, office included, has run on electronic lodgment with SLA since 18 January 2006, with deeds finally registered within a few days of lodgment — a materially faster mechanism than HDB property, whose documents are still lodged manually at SLA's office. Two commercial-specific risks are worth checking for before you commit: GST complications, where a GST-registered seller's obligations can transfer to the buyer on sale, sometimes surfacing only late in the process; and capex surprises, where hidden lift, chiller or M&E replacement costs surface only once a buyer actually reads the building's MCST minutes rather than relying on the listing. Both are reasons to get the change-of-use position, the MCST's financial records and the GST-registration status of the seller confirmed in writing before exchanging, not after.

Estate

An office sits entirely outside the Residential Property Act's foreign-ownership machinery, at every stage of ownership, including inheritance: because SLA's foreign-ownership list already treats commercial and industrial property as needing no Land Dealings Approval Unit approval for a purchase, the same is true when the property passes to an executor, an administrator, or a foreign beneficiary — unlike landed housing, where a foreign beneficiary can force a forced sale under the Act. The ordinary estate mechanics apply otherwise: you can apply for a Grant of Probate only where a valid will names you as executor; without one, the route is Letters of Administration; and an estate below S$50,000 may be handled by the Public Trustee's Office without a grant at all. None of that is specific to an office as an asset class — it is the same estate machinery this site covers on its dedicated estate pages — but it is worth knowing that the property itself adds no citizenship-based complication to settling the estate, at a time when almost everything else about the process already does.

THE VOICE: the twelve questions

Before the twelve, two questions sort every buyer, and neither of them is whether you're buying to invest or to live in it — nobody buys believing the asset will fall, so that question sorts nobody. The two that matter: are you borrowing to buy, and once you hold it, are you letting it out? Cash, own-use: your business occupies the unit debt-free, a pure appreciation play with no carry at all. Cash, let-out: a pure yield play, positive carry by construction, since there's no financing cost to net against the rent. Borrow, own-use: the position most owner-occupiers are actually in, and few say it plainly — negative carry by construction, because there's no rental income to offset the financing cost, so it comes straight out of the business's trading cash flow. Borrow, let-out: the spread play, and the spread is the whole game — at 60% to 80% LTV, commercial rates running 100 to 150 basis points above residential, against gross office yields of 2.5% to 5.5% before financing cost, that spread frequently runs thin or negative on prime Grade A stock before you even account for vacancy.

C0 — the play

An office is closer to a balance-sheet play than a cash-flow play for most buyers. An owner-occupier is really buying out a landlord's future rent bill and converting it into an owned asset plus a mortgage; an investor buying to let is running a cash-flow play, the same as any other landlord, just on a commercial tenant and a commercial lease instead of a residential one.

C1 — balance sheet

What you own: the unit itself, at whatever grade and tenure, plus its fit-out. What you owe: the mortgage, typically 60% to 80% of price, funded entirely in cash on the equity side since CPF cannot touch any part of it. No other asset class on this site removes CPF as a funding source this completely.

C2 — cash flow

What moves in, if let: rent. What moves out, always: the mortgage instalment, property tax at a flat 10% of Annual Value with no owner-occupier discount, MCST maintenance and sinking-fund contributions, insurance, and — on an ageing building — a special levy for lift, chiller or M&E capex the MCST can call on every owner regardless of whether their own unit needs the work. For an owner-occupier, the funding gap is the whole of that number, generated from the business's own operations, not from the property.

C3 — P&L

Distinct from cash flow, and not the same thing: financing interest booked as an expense, fit-out cost amortised over its useful life rather than expensed the day you pay the contractor, and, if let, rental income booked as revenue against those costs. None of these three line up dollar-for-dollar with what actually left or entered the bank account that month — which is the entire reason this site keeps balance sheet, cash flow and profit-and-loss as three separate lines rather than one.

C4 — carry

Cash, let-out is positive carry by construction: yield minus zero financing cost. Borrow, let-out is the spread between the office's own gross yield, 2.5% to 5.5% by grade and submarket, and the loan rate, priced 100 to 150 basis points above residential — a spread that is frequently thin and sometimes negative on the priciest Grade A stock. Borrow, own-use is negative carry by construction: full financing cost, no rental income to net against it, funded instead from trading profit.

C5 — give / get

Cash, plus for an owner-occupier an end to a landlord's own rent escalations and reinstatement clauses; for an investor, a claim on a tenant's rent, in exchange for taking on the underwriting, vacancy and capital-expenditure risk a tenant never carries.

C6 — exposed to

Office rents and vacancy move with the wider economy and hybrid-work adoption faster than most residential product does — islandwide vacancy rose from 10.8% to 11.0% in the same quarter Grade A CBD held a record-low 3.3%, so exposure differs sharply by grade: a Grade C unit's six-to-twelve-month re-let time and thin exit market is a different risk profile from Grade A's one-to-three months. Add lease decay on any leasehold site, and a lump-sum MCST capex call that lands regardless of your own unit's condition.

C7 — for how long

Loan tenure runs 25 to 30 years, capped at the remaining lease less five years on a leasehold site. Practically, an owner-occupier tends to hold as long as the business occupies the space; an investor tends to hold through at least one full leasing cycle, given re-let timelines that stretch toward a year at the lower grades.

C8 — failure cascade

Negative carry — borrow and own-use from day one, or borrow and let-out once yield falls short of financing cost — hits cash flow, as the business or the landlord funds the shortfall from other income. That accumulates into P&L, as financing cost is booked against declining or absent rental revenue. Left unaddressed it pulls the loan balance above the unit's value in a soft market or an ageing Grade C building's price decay: negative equity. From there, a Grade C unit's long re-let time and thin buyer pool mean you cannot exit quickly: illiquidity. For a company that geared into the purchase, a forced sale into that thin market crystallises the loss: insolvency. The order matters — it is not one event, it is a sequence, and each stage is still recoverable until the next one locks in.

C9 — liquidity

An office is far less liquid than a home. Grade A re-lets in one to three months; Grade C in six to twelve. On sale, Grade C's buyer pool is reported thin, dominated by redevelopment-minded family offices rather than ordinary buyers, and a GST-registered seller's obligations can transfer to the buyer, complicating a fast sale. Converting the asset back to cash on short notice means pricing in a real haircut, sharper the lower the grade.

C10 — control

This is where fit-out, addition-and-alteration and change-of-use sit on this page — the office equivalent of reno and rebuild on a house. An owner controls fit-out, S$60 to S$450 psf by tier, and can change the unit's approved use through URA for S$500 and roughly ten working days: real levers a tenant never has. What an owner cannot control: an MCST-wide capex call, the wider vacancy and rent cycle, or, for older Grade C stock, the CBD Incentive Scheme's requirement that the building not be strata-subdivided before it can access a redevelopment GFA bonus — which routes any large-scale upside through a collective sale the individual owner does not control alone.

C11 — the exit

No Seller's Stamp Duty at any holding period, which makes the exit far cleaner tax-wise than a home's SSD tail or a B1 industrial unit's three-year one. What it costs instead is mainly commission — commercial deals are commonly priced at 2% to 6% of price, well above the 1% to 2% typical on a residential resale — plus, at the lower grades, time: a thin buyer pool and a re-let period that can run past a year before a sale even completes.

Buying through a company: the B2B spoke

Most of the genuine tax reasons to buy residential property through a company disappear on an office, because ABSD is already zero for an individual buyer — a company buys mainly for financing structure, liability separation and, sometimes, Additional Conveyance Duty avoidance on a future exit. ACD targets share sales in a property-holding entity where at least half of tangible assets are Singapore residential property; a commercial-property special-purpose vehicle generally falls outside it entirely, because the underlying property isn't residential in the first place — so a company holding only offices doesn't carry the ACD exposure a residential-holding company does when its shares, rather than the property, change hands. What buying through a company actually changes: financing follows commercial standards, not the individual residential tiers — lower loan-to-value, shorter tenures often tied to the remaining lease, personal guarantees from directors or shareholders as standard practice, and higher legal and valuation cost. A company cannot be an owner-occupier for property tax purposes, and CPF cannot fund a company purchase any more than it can fund an individual one. Rental income is taxed at the flat 17% corporate rate rather than at personal marginal rates, and profits paid out as dividends are tax-exempt to the shareholder under the one-tier system — a genuine advantage for a buyer already paying tax at a personal rate above 17%, and no advantage at all for one who isn't. And MAS's carve-out that exempts a business borrower from TDSR and the LTV limit only reaches a genuine operating company: a sole proprietorship, or a company MAS treats as a shell set up solely to hold the property, is tested as an individual regardless of the paperwork.

What the realtor earns

CEA fixes no commission rate for any property type, commercial included, and its own consumer guidance page on renting and letting addresses only HDB flats and private residential property by name — it says nothing about commercial or industrial property at all. That doesn't mean an office deal runs unregulated: estate agency work on the sale or lease of residential, commercial and industrial property alike has needed a CEA licence for the agency and registration for the salesperson since 1 January 2011, whatever the title the person doing the work uses. It means the specific consumer conventions CEA states for a residential landlord — no fixed rate, pay only the agency, an agent can't collect from both sides of the same deal — aren't separately restated for a commercial one; they rest on market practice instead. That practice runs noticeably higher than residential: commercial sale commissions are commonly reported at 2% to 6% of price, against roughly 1% to 2% typical on a residential resale, reflecting the heavier due-diligence and marketing workload on a business-and-real-estate sale. On a lease, the market norm is at least half a month's rent for a term of 12 months or less, and about a month's rent for a term up to 24 months, split between the landlord's and tenant's agents where both are engaged, payable only once the lease is actually signed.

Where the incentive points, including against the realtor himself: an agent is paid only on completion, so a seller's agent on a S$2,000,000 resale who negotiates 2% earns S$40,000 if the deal completes and nothing at all if it does not — a structural push toward closing a deal quickly, at whatever price gets it signed, rather than holding out for a better one on the client's behalf. An agent may never collect commission from both the buyer and the seller in the same transaction; doing so is an offence, not merely a breach of etiquette. And because commission is negotiable rather than fixed, the client who never asks the question pays whatever the agent's opening number was, on a deal size where a single percentage point can run into tens of thousands of dollars either way.

• What actually changes the numbers on an office: grade (A, B or C) and tenure (freehold, 999-year or leasehold)
• Strata unit versus whole building — and whether the building can still be strata-subdivided at all after 2022
• Whether you occupy it yourself or let it out, and whether you borrowed to buy it
• The remaining lease term, which compresses both loan-to-value and loan tenure as it shortens
• Whether the buyer is an individual or a genuine operating company
