Human resource managers have clout over expatriates
In Singapore, some human resource managers can be quite powerful as
they have
"financial" arrangements with "retained" company realtors. This means that
prospective expatriate employees MUST use the "retained" realtors
and no outside agents.
Please check with your human resource manager or your Managing
Director/Chairman whether you may be permitted by the human resource
manager to use the services of
www.asiahomes.com realtors to show you
the black and white bungalows or other properties. |
UPDATE
IN 2012: RENTALS FOR BUNGALOWS IN SINGAPORE IN 2012 ARE FROM $10,000 -
$35,000.
