Some consideration on long term property leasing in Singapore, when you are relocating here.

Its important to find a suitable property to suit your various needs before committing to any long term property leases.

Here are some common considerations:

• Choice of location is very important as it determines the level of convenience to you/ your family. Beside property size, facilities, duration of lease, furnishing and budget are also other important factors to consider. Before you make a decision, you need to consider you/ & your family needs. Distance workplaces, schools, public transportation etc.
• Facilities near/ in the property, some condominiums come with gym and pools which should be in your checklist when searching for a property to rent if it’s critical to you. Close by grocery shops and eateries are also points to keep in mind.
• Duration of the lease is another important aspect. Depending on your need, it is beneficial negotiate from the start in order to achieve a better rental deal with the Landlord as most would prefer a longer property lease term over short/ flexible leases.
• Rental properties are commonly partially or fully furnished. Clarify & confirmed the furnishing you require. Partial furnishing usually comes with lightings, washer, fridge, air-conditioning & curtains. Fully furnish further include beds, sofa, dining table & TV etc.
• Work within your budget to select the most suitable location & type, transports & amenities, surroundings etc.
• Other expenses include utilities, internet & telecom access.
