About Suburban Singapore shophouses

Outside the city centre, shophouses line the main roads of mature estates such as Serangoon Gardens, Kovan, Ang Mo Kio and Bedok. They serve the surrounding homes, with clinics, tuition centres, eateries and shops on the ground floor.

Prices start well below those in the city's conservation districts, and many are freehold. For owner-occupiers and investors looking for steady neighbourhood tenants, they can be a good first shophouse.

Tenure: Mostly freehold, some leasehold.
Nearest MRT: Kovan, Lorong Chuan, Ang Mo Kio, Bedok Reservoir

Buying a shophouse in Suburban Singapore: common questions

Can foreigners buy a shophouse in Suburban Singapore?

Yes, if the shophouse is approved for full commercial use. Shophouses with a residential component are restricted property, and foreign buyers generally need government approval. We check the approved use of every property before you commit.

Is ABSD payable on Suburban Singapore shophouses?

No. Full commercial shophouses carry no Additional Buyer's Stamp Duty (ABSD) and no Seller's Stamp Duty. Buyer's Stamp Duty still applies, and GST may be payable if the seller is GST-registered. If part of the building is residential, ABSD may apply to that part.

What can a Suburban Singapore shophouse be used for?

Clinics, tuition and enrichment centres, eateries, shops and offices. We check the approved use for every property.
