The Best Place to Stay In Singapore For Expats

Choosing a place to rent in a new city can be challenging especially for those with little time to go for multiple viewings. If you are new in town, and you are looking for the best place to stay in Singapore for expats, here is a fast practical checklist to help you sign your next lease agreement with ease.

Lease Type

How long do you need the apartment for? If you need the place for several months at a stretch, ask your agent to only show you places that offer short-term accommodations for expats.

Budget

How much would you spend on monthly rent as well as utilities? Would you prefer an apartment that covers your utilities and wifi usage under one monthly rental?

Accessibility to Transport Links

How easy is it to get onto the public transport network – buses, trains, and taxis – to go to your work place, shops, popular entertainment spots, or anywhere else important to your business and lifestyle? To qualify as “the best place to stay”, it must be conveniently located with good transport links so you can get to places easily.

Neighbourhood Conveniences

Are you likely to prepare your own meals daily or would you prefer to have a variety of eateries and drinking holes near your rental apartment? Do you occasionally like to entertain friends at home? What about visitors? Would you need to host friends or family members who may visit from time to time and, when they do come over, what convenient services would you need?

You should also note the condition of the apartment you have selected before signing the lease agreement. Take photos of areas that you find require fixing before you move in as this simple step can help avoid disagreement later about your responsibility for the problems. If you have time, it is also useful to walk around the neighbourhood during the day and again in the evening so you can have a better feel of the area.
