I wouldn’t know.
But considering that tutors are able to conduct tuition out of their own homes and there are services like facials, hairdressing and even mani and pedi being carried out from the home as well, maybe can be done on a small scale? -

No idea leh. Doing our own small bz fr home & renting out to 3rd party is very different & it’ll fall on our responsibility to the authorities leh coz Pte homes are meant for residential also, unless for some I know are dual usage zoning like residential/commercial or commercial/residential then I do see some light. Only not sure how hourly rental works out for these 2 zoning.

HDB for business purpose, there are 2 schemes
Think there’re some restriction for such short-term Bz operation is I’m not mistaken. Rmbr some pte landed owners operate under Airbnb & neighbors complain strangers frequently change & disrupt the sense of safety ard their neigbourhood? So it be sms illegal unless min occupancy of 3/6 mths (can’t rmbr exactly).
HDB worse & more restrictive. Can register with Town Council under HDB ruling but don’t think they permit short-term visitors or tourists. . Think they ICA needs to track where everybody goes & visitors & tourists need to be channeled to hotel, motels, etc. Students register with dormitories or stay in HDB (still registered under Town Council). So long as they’ve student pass, WP, SP or EP can HDB rooms be rented to these group.
If u’re thinking of short-term hourly rentals, think authorities only permit under Bz licence and in designated zones, but not private residential areas. As for home renting for office use, think also restrictions esp now covid period. Think they allow small bz operations but max 2 pax operating other then fr same household going in/out to retain the safety & sanity of mainly residential use purpose. Not sure if I wld ever like to see families with young kids & common corridor every other units hv 1-2 pax of strangers walking in our every other hour. What do u think?
Just let the experts check accuraof my memory of things.
1. Home office scheme
2. Home based Business scheme

A range of properties held by the higher end middle class, this group will feel some impact, estimated increase of between 20% to 50% of their annual property tax for own stay. -
Thats why Lawrence Wong called it a wealth tax.
There will be an indirect cooling effect on the HDB upgraders who were planning to use the “sell 1, buy 2” strategy of getting 1 condo for own stay & the other for investment rental income. -
When interest rate goes up…more impact.

Many will still continue to upgrade and/or invest, as these taxes are not visible until later on. The pain comes later when the property taxes comes in. A hike in interest rate will be more effective in cooling the market.
