What is HDB? In Singapore , HDB stands for HOUSING AND DEVELOPMENT BOARD and public housing which come under this umbrella is called HDB.
HDB is responsible for building and the maintenance of the houses and is occupied by many communities. Singaporeans alone occupy 80-85% of the houses. It is available to both citizens and non-citizens and they may directly rent the accommodation they need, whether it's a flat or a room or with help from an Agent such as Myowndreamhome.com.

HDB also has a scheme to provide deprived and underprivileged citizens of Singapore with subsidized rental flats. They have to prove their eligibility to take advantage of this scheme according to HDB policies.
