Can I keep my apt & bank a/c without employment pass???

Hi, I'm leaving my job soon and won't have an employment pass any longer, but I still want to keep my apartment and my bank accounts (for another 6 months or so.) Does anyone know if this is possible?? HELP!
the only thing i have left to lose is my mind

I dont see why not, I'm like you, and potentially facing the same problem.

What you mean you want to keep your apartment for 6 months (rental? or your own? )

If you're not on EP, you need to be out of Singapore within 6 weeks I think, but you still can come back to Singapore using visitor visa right. So as long as you keep up your payments, I dont see why not?

I'm sure plenty of foreigners (not on EP nor a PR) have a bank account and own an apartment in Singapore........? :???:

I know that there are a lot of Indonesians with bank accounts here who don't work or live here, so no problem with that.
