U need 1 hoursemate or looking for ppl to take 1 room? Common room or master?

Question.

If my current landlord ends the tenancy contract early because they managed to sell the place, do I get some form of compensation? I wish to at least get back my agent fees and deposit.

Very sad to move out from Bukit Batok...

I just got myself a place at Bedok Reservoir for 500$. Why is it that I need to pay full month fees to agent when all he did was put the advert on the net where I found it. Even the owner can do that! Please somebody make me feel better.

N btw, what is all this 1+1, 3+1 term?
Is it how I paid for my 1 month plus 1 month advance when i first rent the room?

Apple's employee able to get how many percent discount on Apple's product?
Is there anybody can help me buy an Iphone 4?

Why? Because you were willing to pay. You could have passed on this place, you know.

Life happens.

As for agent's fees... ask for the pro-rata compensation of the fees. You can always refuse to move out before the tenancy expires in order to force your landlord's hand.

Hi, im not sure sum of you remember me but I just graduated few months ago. Im a finance degree holder. Considered a fresh grad. currently, in a sales job in a bank and getting an offer in one top MNC in the operations department.

Shud I accept the job? Get the experience before heading down south to singapore?

I know Seantang told me to complete my degree first before giving a chance in singapore, so just asking for opinions?

i think thats why we all left in the first place

if my friend could, so could u

if they told u 1 month in advance then deposite... if spot then deposite and 1 month rent... but as per contract

if u r reluctant to pay the agent, then dont rent the place in the first place... go find direct owner

Is the offer in KL or in Singapore?

What's the point of getting experience before coming to Singapore? Why can't you come directly to Singapore and get that experience here instead?

Any nice place to shopping in Singapore ?

Unfortunately most of the advert is by agents. only less than 5% are advertised by direct owner. especially if u search thru the net.
probably the owner is lazy to go thru the hassle of making appointment to tenants, reciv calls, and have to go all the way to the house just to show ppl who might not be interest to rent. sumore have to do some selling/negotiations skills.

but commonly it's half month agent fees for one year lease, 1mth for 2yrs. Dear forumers, pls correct me if i'm wrong.

1+1 = 1 room + 1 living room
2+1 = 2R+1LR
Dunno about other terms. to make matter complication u have also A, I, NG, etcetc.....
i've tried to search thru hdb website, but can't find a complete list to describe all types.

Yes, the shopping belt.

1 housemate to take 1 room. Utility room, but yet to confirm to take in 1 more housemate

Great sales just ended

u may wana check/open "shopping life in singapore" thread, to avoid this thread to become kopitiam about shopping.

FYI. No Discount.

You are using property agent services, thus need to pay. Else, you can always opt to go direct for owner but it is difficult to search.

My only question is, I thought for agent fee is usually 50%-50%? Tenant pay 50%, and owner pay 50% ?

I would rather ask any nice place to chiong in Singapore?

oh. that sucks.

Its not in singapore. in penang.

Hmm well for the meantime i have not applied to singapore as i want to be closer to my family but I know that I have to decide for my own future

If that's the case, then there is really no point to ask the question "Shud I accept the job? Get the experience before heading down south to singapore?"

You've already decided.

can a diploma holder with relevant experience apply for employment pass if salary more than $2500......
