LOCKED ONE ROOM RENTALS AND OTHER HOUSING INFO FOR NEWLY
ARRIVED EXPATRIATES
 Cul-de-sac houses are in
demand by expatriate mothers as child safety is paramount in their minds. However, houses
with a pool, in the popular near downtown Newton area, as in this photo, rents
from $10,000 - $20,000 depending on its location and condition. The
demand is greater than supply although most expats think that there are
desperate landlords with lots of vacant properties to rent.
This is true of condos, but not good class renovated decent
bungalows
Condos like Sommerville Grandeur and Gallop Gables, off
Farrer Road, are  favourites
with the Caucasian families as they are a 5-minute drive to Orchard Road, less than 5
years old and are near the "Holland Village" where expats congregate for lunch
and dinner and the International Schools.
 Oleander
Towers is in Toa Payoh, a 3 stop and 5-minute ride from the Toa Payoh
subway to Orchard Road.
Most expats here are French as the school in Ang Mo Kio 3 is just a 10-minute bus ride.
It is a 5-minute walk to the Toa Payoh subway and is newer and has full
condo facilities. Email james@asiahomes.com for
the penthouse and other 2, 3 and 4 bedroom units.
 Many Caucasian and Japanese
expats are living in the Housing and Development Board (HDB) estates although nowadays,
the private condos are relatively cheaper in rent than 2 years ago. It is a great way to
understand the locals and experience the real Singaporean way of life! Try not to lease a
"locked one room" HDB apartment as this
may be illegal. A 3-bedroom Bishan HDB
apartment rents around S$1,200 per month.
The HDB does not permit leasing of the whole apartment unless it gives an official
approval. The authorities allow rooms to be sublet without the need for official
sanctions. Hence, the "locked one room" practice is to show the HDB that the
Landlord is still residing in the apartment.
It is quite risky for you as you may be evicted if found out. As at August 2000, Landlords
are responsible for ensuring that they do not rent to illegals. Therefore, renting
one room nowadays entail much heavier responsibility.

Education:
BE KIND TO PETS
Proper care makes your pets live a healthy and
longer life. Do you think dogs are vengeful? Do they have enemies?
In this case, the Labrador used to bark at the Doberman from within its house. But one
day, the Doberman saw it outside the house and pounced on it. The owner could not control this Doberman. The Labrador was savaged badly. It was treated
at the veterinary clinic.
The owners could not separate the dogs when they were fighting.
Sometimes, it is risky to intervene. However, "BE KIND TO PETS". Get the injured dog treated promptly as
bacterial infections of the sound set in overnight in hot and humid Singapore.
BE KIND TO PETS is a community education promoting health care of pets, is supported by AsiaHomes Internet.
