Hi I am new here. This is my 1st post.
Have browsed this site for a couple of days and found lots of helpful information. Thank you all.
I will go to Singapore in the end of May and stay there for a couple of months initially have something of my own to do . Later, depends so just wonder how the market there will be by then.
Appreciate in advance if any one would like to share something with me.

If we knew the answer to that question we would all already be rich and wouldn't need to be in Singapore.

My first post here as well. Been using this site mainly for the
condo pictures, its got such a great database i have to say. Been very helpful.
Mate i dunno what the market is gonna be like in June but like yourself im heading over to singapore in mid may. Really excited about this move i would have to say. The sucks part about it is trying to pack your life into 5 boxes and then try find accomodation etc etc all over again!
Good luck cos i know exactly what you are going through now!

See as how you are coming from the middle east (I assume it is your other half posting with her own nick in another thread - as both share the same IP) and our OP is in all likelyhood a possible spammer (posting from PRC). I doubt that you know what he is going through (nothing as he's really not going anywhere).
However, yeah, I can understand where you are.
