Rents and yield
Rental contracts that began in the 12 months to August 2026 had a median rent of S$3,100 a month (345 contracts). The district's median across every contract was S$3,600, so rents here ran noticeably below it: about 14% lower.
Over the 24 months the median rent was S$3,119 (688 contracts), about the same as the latest 12 months, within 1%.
By bedrooms: 1 bedroom S$3,100 (183), 2 bedrooms S$4,000 (54), 3 bedrooms S$5,400 (28) and 4 or more bedrooms S$6,800 (5). The figure in brackets is the number of contracts.
Setting rent against price for under 600 sq ft homes (204 rentals and 16 resale or sub-sale transactions) gives a gross yield estimate of 3.9%: a median rent of S$3,000 a month against a median price of S$930,000. It is before maintenance, vacancy, tax and loan costs, and it uses middle values, so a particular home can differ.
Across 4 size ranges the estimate runs from 2.4% to 3.9%.
600 to 899 sq ft: 3.9% (rent S$3,200 a month, price S$974,000), 900 to 1,199 sq ft: 3.1% (rent S$4,500 a month, price S$1,733,000) and 1,200 to 1,499 sq ft: 2.4% (rent S$5,800 a month, price S$2,875,000).

What this page cannot tell you
A median is the middle of many different homes in Watertown. It does not describe one unit: its condition, facing, view, renovation, floor or stack can each move a price well away from the middle, and none of them is in the records behind this page.
The figures are recorded transactions, so they describe what has sold and not what is on the market now. They are not a valuation, and they say nothing about future prices.
