The problem is contract only states: no vandalism, no pets, no bringing people into the unit
All these rules imposed after I moved it. Sigh, Kiam Siap, and no choice for now since its convenient for me to get to work |

Just wondering if anybody still looking for a place to stay ? I'm thinking of taking the whole unit and renting out to others. I will be moving out from my current place end of the month. Looking at places like SK , hougang or maybe the east side.

QUOTE(magiclover @ Jul 3 2010, 06:34 PM) I just rented a room 4 days ago, with quite a nasty owner Power sial, only allowed to bath 2 times a day?Living with a pair of old retired couple, stays at home 24/7 and watch me do everything Bathe only 2 times allowed, washing machine(manual kind) use twice a week maximum 4 pairs, not allowed to hang my clothes when I'm out, i need to be in to wait for my clothes to dry to collect them, must let them know what time I return home, and where I go etc etc... Really regret for making such a rush decision and paid so much for agent fee! I think sooner or later I might lose my professionalism and throw temper, haha Plan to move out in 3 months time! haha, better not stay with owner imo. Property prices in Sg is really, sigh. Weekend crowd in shopping mall, sigh. Lol. Just to show how "ngiau" singaporeans can get. They give scrooge mcduck a run for his money.

Do we apply it at the MOM where we get our EP? Just curious. It will really reduce the queue time a lot as right now we will need to queue at the normal lane for "All Passports" hehe...regarding the card, i think its $30 to apply for it. |

They give scrooge mcduck a run for his money. If it is a blanket statement, likewise, can a Singaporean label Malaysians as a bunch of low life thugs and murderers from the numerous crimes occuring just one km across the border and from the recent spate of robberies that resulted in a killing in Kallang that was done by a gang of Malaysians? |

So far your the first story i've heard where the landlord stipulates a limit on how many baths you can take. Feels like water rationing during communist occupation.Most landlords would balk at the idea of u staying at home on the weekend using up the precious electricity, worse still if your using the air cond over the weekend non stop which even i have to agree is over the top unless its very hot. Or you can rent a whole flat and then you get the headache of how to equally divide the utilities. One forumer had an excellent idea to fix that problem, akin to having a gun pointed to your head.

Hi all,
I'm also going to work in sg in august. Working in Jurong and planning find a room somewhere in Clementi/Queenstown/Buona Vista/Redhill. Don't really want to stay with landlord either. Any one of you (not landlords) who are planning to get an apartment on a shared basis? Kindly PM me. |
