What do commercial rents run near 78 Moh Guan Terrace?

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

Indicative area yield — District 3 retail

Gross yield (area)
3.8%
3.4% net of property tax
Rent side (median of bands)
$112.95 psm/mo
2026Q3
Price side (strata, 5y)
$3,294 psf
38 sales

An INDICATIVE AREA yield for District 3 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.
