Just in case you all don't know...
DBS Remittance to Malaysia bank account now still free eh. And the rate quite attractive.

Ytd noon 1:3.0012 then night 1:3.015 but I still didn't change. Today I think got go up o 3.025 or even 3.03 but whole day busy no time check. Now back to 3.00XX.

See how tmr. Will transfer some just in case I need RM. Won't convert much and put there. Even put in the highest rate FD also still losing money doh.gif

I won't encourage this.
It's very bad for your health in the long run that you need to get up at 3.30am and reach home at 9.30pm
It can be worse now since the increase in influx of Malaysians flooding the causeway.
Better off stay in Singapore and get a 2nd passive income to fund your rental and utilities.

2nd passive income ???

care to share ?

One can choose to commute JB - SG if the working hour doesn't coincide with the peak period travel, e.g those who do Sales or work in Retail

Yeah

They have the best hours to work but have to face the full brunt of shoppers outrages demand and expectation

Should be ok for SG side. Maybe some issue from MY side coz now become foreigner maybe got restriction of land ownership or extra tax. SG got rule to sell off any landed or land if change citizenship or drop PR. MY so big maybe no such rule yet. A small political donation should settle your problem laugh.gif .
If still subject to mortgage, its the bank to say yes or no. Most likely they will say no unless your mummy got big income to take loan buy over your property but you reimburse her at the back. Bank no accept "this my mummy I still pay the loan I want put her name for gift show I good boy but is to escape stamp duty kind of stuff." Normally tycoon will one time pay off the loan then do the transfer for their son daughter mother father and mistress. When do transfer then need do stamping, wah lao big sum money give gahmen give lawyer again.

sgrealestate our resident property tycoon will serve you well, with a fee though, in this situation.
