Accommodation Options In Singapore

17 years ago

Dear Singaporeans,

I have just been offered a new job in Singapore and would like information and feedback on:

1. The different types of accommodation available, and
2. What are the recommended areas to live in on my budget.

Is it true that prices quotes in classifieds are 30% to 50% above the real rental price?

For reference, I am a 33yr old Irish national currently living in Beijing, China. I am going to be working in the advertising sector based in Boat Quay. I am single and would like to live in a 2-bedroomed fully furnished apartment with a budget of SGD2,000-SGD2,500/month.

Can I get a place in a condominium with pool and gym for this rate?

I am happy to live 15-20mins away from Boat Quay, but the area should be convenient for MRT/public transport and supermarkets, as I won;t have a car.

Any ideas and suggestions provided would be greatly appreciated.
