Businesses can rent vacant State buildings faster and simpler by making direct rental offers to the Singapore Land Authority (SLA).

For who?

Businesses looking for quick and ready premises. The premises are suitable for start-ups and niche businesses such as:

• childcare centres
• homes for the aged
• foreign system schools

For what?

• To allow businesses whose activities fall within one of the “Approved Uses” to make direct rental offers for vacant State buildings.
  
  
• You may submit an offer for alternative uses when the property becomes available on a first-come-first-served basis.

Things to note:

• SLA will receive all offers for the property for a 2-week period from the launch date. If SLA does not receive any acceptable offer, SLA will evaluate subsequent acceptable offers on a first-come-first-served basis.
  
  
• Approvals can be as fast as 4 weeks for “straight-forward” cases. Under the regular tender system, the entire process normally takes 11 weeks.
