TIPS FOR
TENANTS
Case study written in
2002.
The expat wife who wants no noisy feet stamping
of neighbours upstairs and dual basins in the master bathroom.
Expats relocating to Singapore:
You have 2 small kids. Your wife wants a new houses as she dislikes noisy
neighbours upstairs. But there is no pool in a new house close to
downtown if you have a $12,000 budget. Unless you live in the
suburbs or in Woodlands, north Singapore.
With a S$12,000 rental budget, you can afford an upscale condo of 2400 sq.
ft downtown. Do you want to live near the centre of action in
downtown Orchard Road or the American School and commute 30 minutes to
downtown to work?
Tel: +65 9668 6468, email
david@asiahomes.com to discuss further the pros and cons of living
next to the American School.
