If you do now, it will be cheaper compared to if you do it 6 months down the road. :)

Not cheaper anytime soon, constructions were halted during covid, so till supply (stagnated number of condos) go up to meet demand (increasing from HK et al) it wont go down - recommend to settle it now than down the road

Soon? Not with the insane demand and extremely limited supply. I've been viewing houses and per the agents and landlords, it's only going to go up because people are desperate for rooms and interest rates are going up further, think 3 digits of enquiries to a listing. Many landlords are even limiting to 1 year lease only because they expect it to go even higher. Might want to look at further locations if price is a concern. Beware that listings can be gone in mere hours, some people offer without even viewing the house because they're familiar with the area.

If you want hidden gems, get locations far away from MRT stations and perhaps even bus stops, if you can afford to drive.

Consensus seems to be that rental markets will soften in the next 12-16 months

Unlikely to come down anytime soon the next 6 months at least. The current cooling measure had heated up the rental market of late

Not soon for sure. And can’t even predict it.
Perhaps a year later at least prices stabilise
