PERSONALISED ATTENTION

1.  Human Resource Department:
Preview of Singapore and then inspection of specific properties after preview.  This is usually 2 months before relocation.  House-hunting will be conducted by Asia USA Realtors.  US$100/hour, minimum 2 hours. 

2.  Expats:  Please check whether your company have restrictions on you using an outside realtor.   See
The early bird catches the worm?

3.  Start ups.  Some start up companies want this type of personalized service as the expat's time is too valuable to be spent seeing unqualified apartments.

4.  Planning and email correspondence before arrival are essential to the success and satisfaction of the busy executive.  

4.  Meeting the spouse at the airport can be arranged. 

5.  Fax/email your HOUSE HUNTING FORM
to judy@asiahomes.com

EXPATS/SURFERS TO NOTE

1.  We charge the Tenant half a month's rent, on successful closing, to show and get the best of all the black and white bungalows in Singapore unless the Landlord pays us the commission.

2.  Please CONFIRM with your company and the human resource manager as to whether you are permitted to use asiahomes.com realtors (outside realtors). You may have to let your company know that you wish to use outside realtors if you feel you receive unsatisfactory service from company realtors, but many human resource managers have firm policies stopping you from doing so if the company is the Tenant and not yourself. 

3.  For rentals below S$2,500 per month, we charge Tenants  half a month's rent, on successful closing.

4.  Please note that we do NOT provide telephone numbers of Serviced apartments  or any of the above condos and developments to expats/overseas callers phoning us wanting to know name of developer or tenant.

Please do NOT phone 9668 6468 to get the numbers as our answering service operator doesn't have them personally.  He just takes down your name and telephone number and gets the realtors to contact you later.

The agents provide a free service (if rental is over 2 weeks) to expats/secretaries needing serviced apartments without the hassle of booking themselves. They contact the operators of Serviced apartments, get the best rate and book for expats or bring expats to view the units of any serviced apartments.

5. HDB flats. We do NOT provide a service to rent HDB rooms but we do rent out approved HDB flats. As Oct 1, 2003, many more HDB owners can rent out their whole units without resorting to "lock one room" hassles and eviction threats for such illegal practices by the HDB.  Dec 26 03. BISHAN HDB 5I for rent. $1,500. Tel. 9668-6468, judy@asiahomes.com

6.  Asiahomes.com website NOT updated.
It is just not possible to update every page as expat real estate queries vary considerably from $300 rental to $30,000 and purchase prices from $500,000 to $5 million. It is too costly to do so. Please send email to judy@asiahomes.com your specific questions, appointments to view Singapore apartments and houses. We will assign a realtor to handle your queries and replies are usually 24 - 48 hours. If you don't hear from us, please re-send your email.  

7. Re-send your email if there is no reply. Asiahomes.com gets 3,000 junk mails daily and these have taken up the allotted space from the service provider. Your email may bounce back to you in such cases.

BE KIND TO PETS
is a community education project using photos to promote the welfare of animals. It is sponsored by AsiaHomes Internet.

Above image shows  "cherry-eyes", a term used in a Veterinary Ophthalmology book. to  describe the enlargement of the Harderian glands which lie inside the 3rd eyelid.

12-year old cross bred female in Singapore with 2 cherry eyes. Tears obstructed from draining into the inside of nose and therefore overflows to stain the lower part of the lower eyelid. The epiphora (tear staining) is not obvious if the dog is not white coated.   Consult your vet as to surgical removal as the dog feels irritated and rubs his eyes to remove that "cherry".
