Rental restrictions for pets

Post by anu2011 » Tue, 02 Aug 2011 4:34 am

Hi,

My husband and I are moving to Singapore from the US in a few months. We have a 4 yrs old german shepard mix, about 48 pounds.

Are there any kind of restrictions regarding pets in rental condos or apts in singapore? We plan on renting a condo/apt.

Any input is appreciated.

Thanks
Anu

Some condo Management has restriction on dog size. Some LL does not permit dogs per se.
The public housing has stricter restriction too due to religious tolerance as Muslim population account for about 13 % and shrinking.
My best advise rent a Service Apartment here for about 2 weeks . then on do the legwork. Seeing is believing.
Our host is a great place to start.
You need to understand the legal framework here too
Have a search in this forum which is at the right hand top corner under the profile link. Type in Tenancy Agreement. Pets etc....

Thanks for the reply. Actually I have already contacted a realtor that we know of to get us details about condo rentals and pet policies. Lets see what happens. I cannot dream of leaving my dog here!:)

Thanks again
