If I could afford it, a landed property on Sentosa would definitely be the dream. Super dog-friendly, though accessibility is a huge issue so it would have to be post retirement.sundaymorningstaple wrote: ↑Mon, 14 Nov 2022 5:14 pmFor the same rental condo have much more amenities and acreage but it's all shared. Private property is much more expensive and the acreage is usually only a postage stamp unless it was tiled over a well. But if you have a pool, plan on paying 5 digits a month probably closer to the 15~20K a month. Exercise room you can use a bedroom as spend as much as you like and will not have to wait on another user to finish with it.
My suggestion is to get a condo on one of the coastlines (East Coast out towards the airport will have less human traffic (although that doesn't mean deserted by any means. But it can put you on the beach or other locations where there are unleashed dog runs (I think there may still be one in Bishan Park but cannot confirm. This area is in the centre of the island but with condos all around the perimeter of the park. That way having a way to exercise the dog and yourself will not be quite so onerous. I fear landed property will be outside of your budget at $8K. The way property rental prices are escalating at the moment, $8K might severely hamper your condo choices as well.

Sage advice. Living here as an Expat who expects to retain the same quality of life enjoyed in the home country necessitates having the employer foot much of the living costs.malcontent wrote: ↑Mon, 14 Nov 2022 5:46 pmWhere did the original post go?
From the user’s previous posts back in 2015, it looks like they are coming from Australia.
My advice would be resolutely… stay put unless the employer is willing to fork out 5 figure rental plus International School for the two kids, at a minimum.
