Is it affordable to live around this area? (Fort Canning Park) What would say I'd be spending a month on rent here for a 2BHK? I'd love to be near a park because my Washington Square Park years in NY have definitely gotten me to see the appeal of being close to one.

Fort Canning Park can be quite pricey, but it's definitely doable if you're willing to budget for it. The area is so central and it's probably got the best quality of life in my opinion - easy access to public transport and amenities, great food and mostly young professionals out there. If you can afford NY rent, I think you can do about SGD 6,000 to SGD 8,000 per month. If you want a 1BHK you could be paying much less.

Sgd 6k-8k sounds about right. If you don’t mind older walk-up buildings without swimming pools or amenities, you can probably find something around 5k.

I pay $4.5k for a 2BR with a pool and amenities - but I’ve been there for 6 years and have an amazing landlord. So $6-8k sounds right for the current market.

Id like to rent it out for some positive cash flow that I can then start using to save for my 2nd property (sounds easy when I type it).

Thanks all for your input - stay safe!
