Key takeawayNo rent is published for 60,60a Prinsep Street itself. On its street, Prinsep Street, retail space rented at a median of $6.99 psf a month in 2021Q3. That is not this building's own rent, and never a quote for a particular unit.

URA's percentiles of RETAIL rents (shop, F&B, entertainment, health & fitness) across every lease stamped with IRAS on this STREET in the quarter — the street's figure, not this building's rent and never a unit's. Retail rent swings with floor and frontage, so the spread matters as much as the median. A median needs at least 2 buildings and 3 contracts (percentiles need 4); a blank means below that threshold, not zero.

What do commercial rents run near 60,60a Prinsep Street?

Key takeawayURA publishes contracted-rent percentile grids quarterly (latest: 2026Q3) — the benchmark evidence an asking rent should be weighed against.

Indicative area yield — District 7 retail

Gross yield (area)
4.8%
4.3% net of property tax
Rent side (median of bands)
$100.25 psm/mo
2026Q3
Price side (strata, 5y)
$2,348 psf
241 sales

An INDICATIVE AREA yield for District 7 retail — NOT this building's yield, and not any unit's. Commercial rents are published as a district percentile grid, so both halves describe the district.

Priced on STRATA sales only: rent is quoted per unit of lettable area, and commercial land PSF runs far above strata — mixing them would shift the ratio sharply.

Net deducts the 10% non-residential property tax ONLY — not vacancy, maintenance, agent fees, financing, or the 9% GST on purchase.
