SINGAPORE'S residential leasing market is not likely to see a major impact when the land border with Malaysia reopens further, although the increase in arrivals and departures could boost the volume of rental transactions, property analysts said.

While residential properties in areas such as Yishun and Jurong could enjoy higher rental demand, some Malaysians will also vacate rental housing in the city-state when their leases come to an end.
