This would be quality.

however as the Govt currently police the rules on owning/renting out flats then I suspect another damp squib.

I don't think Sg has the accommodation shortage that Vancouver has. Not these days at least.

Agreed rents are falling. All of my co-workers are bragging about the rent reductions they are negotiating with their landlords....

And my niece is bragging that she's finally found a tenant after 5 months of being vacant (formally 2600 now 2000 But HBD 5 room in Hougang) so a bit out of the way (near YCK Rd).

Hi SMS,

I guess we have now come a full circle, rents must be back above 2600 now isn't it?

My landlord is asking me for $2300 for the renewal 5 room HDB in Jurong. I used to rent it for 1800 for the last 3 years. Apparently he can get 2600 in the market but giving me a discount because I am a good tenant(his own words). Small mercies I guess.
