EXPATS/SURFERS TO NOTE:

1.  We charge the Tenant half a month's rent, on successful closing, to show and get the best of all the black and white bungalows in Singapore unless the Landlord pays us the commission.

2.  Please CONFIRM with your company and the human resource manager as to whether you are permitted to use asiahomes.com realtors (outside realtors). You may have to let your company know that you wish to use outside realtors if you feel you receive unsatisfactory service from company realtors.

3.  For rentals below S$2,500 per month, we charge Tenants  half a month's rent, on successful closing.

4.  Please note that we do NOT provide telephone numbers of Serviced apartments or any of the above condos and developments to expats/overseas callers phoning us wanting to know name of developer, managing agent or tenant.  If you need such service including valuation reports, you will be required to pay $300 for the information excluding official valuation reports.

Please do NOT phone 9668-6468 or get persistent to get the numbers as our answering service operator doesn't have them personally.  He just takes down your name and telephone number and gets the realtors to contact you later if you want to rent apartments only. 

The agents provide a free service to expats/secretaries needing serviced apartments without the hassle of booking themselves. They contact the operators of Serviced apartments, get the best rate and book for expats or bring expats to view the units of any serviced apartments.  Please do NOT abuse this service if you just wish to shop around and book the apartments yourself or with your own agent.

5. HDB flats. We do NOT provide a service to rent HDB rooms but we do rent out approved HDB flats. As Oct 1, 2003, many more HDB owners can rent out their whole units without resorting to "lock one room" hassles and eviction threats for such illegal practices by the HDB.  Tel. 9668-6468, judy@asiahomes.com

6.  Asiahomes.com website NOT updated.
It is just not possible to update over 500MB webpages as the expat real estate queries vary considerably from $300 rental to $30,000 and purchase prices from $500,000 to $10 million.  This is a free service to expats or foreign buyers, providing information on Singapore housing and office rentals.  We are in the process of updating but this will take some time.

Please send e-mail, text message, fax to judy@asiahomes.com your specific questions. Make appointments to view Singapore apartments and houses.

7. Re-send your e-mail if there is no reply within 24 hours.  Asiahomes.com gets 4,000 junk mails daily and these have taken up the allotted space from the service provider. Your e-mail may bounce back to you in such cases.  In your SUBJECT of the e-mail, type ASIAHOMES - House/condos wanted.
