Rental prices in the global housing market are increasing year by year. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
In 2025, this growth was particularly noticeable in major economic centers. According to experts, this year London and Singapore were found to be the cities with the most expensive one-bedroom apartment rentals in the world.
According to RIA Novosti, in September the average monthly rent for a one-bedroom apartment in these cities reached $2700. In London, prices in central districts rose up to $3100.
Several factors are influencing the sharp rise in housing rental prices. These include population growth, migration processes, increases in construction material costs, and the activation of the investment market as the main reasons.
According to the analysis results, the list of cities with the highest rental prices in 2025 is as follows: London ($2800), Singapore (around $2700), Washington ($2300), Amsterdam ($2250), Dublin ($2200), Reykjavik ($2160), Luxembourg ($2000), Hong Kong ($2000), Bern ($1800), and Copenhagen ($1750). Experts believe that rental prices in major cities in Europe and Asia depend not only on demand but also on the standard of living, infrastructure, and quality of services.
For example, London and Singapore are in high demand not only as economic but also as international financial centers, which is why rental prices are high. Additionally, alongside the rise in housing prices, competition in the rental market has intensified in many countries.
Certain countries have begun developing new laws aimed at regulating rental prices and protecting tenants' rights. These are considered important measures to balance the market and safeguard the interests of renters.
