Hi all, I will be relocating to Singapore next month and am currently looking for a HDB to rent with budget about 2k. Preferably semi furnished. Work place is near Jurong East MRT Station

Any particular area or block I should look into? Just want to have a better idea before I head down to Singapore to enlist the help of an agent. Currently looking in Jurong,clementi,chinese garden area..

Edit ./ I am not looking for property agents. Don't pm please.

Thanks. Will look into it.

I am using property agent. Just did not want every property agent that viewed my message on here to contact me...

Just based on my experience. Leave the number of days on the embarkation/disembarkation card empty. Let the Singapore immigration officer know that you have IPA for EP. The officer will put in 30 days and scribble "EP" on the card.

You will need to keep this card also and give it to your company to set up appointment with MOM.

My experience is you would need the actual EP card to apply. I was turned down at the front desk by several banks when I tried to apply with IPA.

however, I finally managed to apply joint savings account with IPA at DBS only with the bank manager's approval. This is after I went there to try open an "expat" account...
