Through these events, we hope you’ll get to know more Figment members from other homes.
You will be joining a creative community of open-minded, well-travelled professionals. Creative souls from diverse backgrounds in tech, finance, design, and other knowledge industries. Although most members are in their thirties, many are in their sixties and seventies! Rather than our age though, what matters is our shared appreciation of art and culture. It helps to bring a sense of adventure going off the beaten track of cookie-cutter condo living.
Not so much, this is Figment’s vision of shared housing for grown-ups. We are not slicing and dicing apartments into cages just to stuff two hundred people into a building. With Figment you always have room to breathe. Socialise as much as you like, or choose to retire to your private studio within a huge 3000ft² shophouse.
Most definitely. We think you'd figure out a nice arrangement with your housemates if they would also like to work there.
Enquire with us by clicking the orange button on the top right. You would already need to know your budget and expected move-in date. We’ll give you a call within the next business day for us to get to know you better, followed by a viewing if you wish. You’ll be able to book on the spot if you like what you see.
In Singapore walk up apartments, as the name suggests, are apartments that are accessible only by staircases and lack elevator access. This is because they are mostly part of older developments, with many characteristics that differ from apartments built more recently. For example, these older walk-ups tend to be much more spacious and are housed in charming heritage buildings.
Walk-up apartments are the perfect rental option for singles, whilst Figment’s furnished apartments are large enough to accommodate couples and co-sharing friends.
Our shophouse walk-up apartments can comfortably accommodate up to two people. You might find that sharing a place with your significant other would be much easier than sharing one with a close friend. That said, Figment provides spacious shared common areas for you to let loose beyond the confines of your walkup.
Most walk-up apartments do not come with condo facilities, although some may offer basic features such as a barbecue area and pool. We'd argue that most of the amenities that come with Figment's walkups extend into the neighbourhood with walkable surrounds and great coffeeshops and bars a short distance away.
You can find walk up apartments in various conservation buildings around Singapore, including apartment blocks and shophouses. These buildings are located in prime liveable areas such as Joo Chiat and Tiong Bahru. These locations tend to be amenity rich and convenient to access.
According to the Council for Estate Agencies, to rent property in Singapore, you need to be a Singapore citizen or permanent resident. Non-citizens may rent if they hold an employment or work permit like an S-pass, a student pass, dependent pass or long term social visit pass. That said, even with foreigners holding legal residence, the problem is that most Singapore landlords may not be too pleased with a month-to-month lease agreement and would typically require at least a 1 or 2 year contract. Figment provides a much-needed. flexible alternative for walk-up apartment rentals with flexible lease terms and a 1-month notice period.
Foreigners can buy real estate in Singapore, with some restrictions around buying landed property. For non-landed property, foreigners can own as many walk-up apartments or condos as they can afford. There is no limit on the number of apartments they can buy.
