BLACK
AND WHITE BUNGALOWS FOR RENT
Black
and White Bungalows are a perennial
favourite of many Caucasian expats. They are
the "colonial houses" built by the British military
between the late 19th century and 2nd world War. They have
"black and white" exteriors and large grounds. Some gardens
can be as large as 100,000 sq. ft and many are around 50,000
sq ft.
The colonial bungalows are owned or managed by two
corporations. One corporation, Singapore Land Authority (SLA)
manages the bulk of the black and whites, estimated to be
around 500. SLA tenders out the bungalows for rent to the
highest bidder.Prospective tenants
can submit a bid on the State Property Information Online
website,
https://www.sla.gov.sg/spio
No housing agent is permitted to be involved. The highest
bidder gets the property. In 2012, each tenant can rent
up to 9 years, paying the bid price for the first 2 years and
then rental according to market rates.
The
other corporation may have black and whites in
Mount Pleasant for rental at certain times but chances of getting
one are very slim. Asia USA Realty can
broker such rentals for prospective tenants. However, the
prospective Tenant must be able to decide and close the
deal if one is available owing to the high demand and
short supply as these units are limited in numbers.
