Lease Duration

Post by ComingSoon » Thu, 17 Jan 2013 4:57 pm

Hi,
We have a 2 year EP, but won't actually move to Singapore until 2 months have expired on our EP. Is it possible to ask the LL to do a 10 month or 22 month 1st lease, with subsequent ones as the traditional 12 or 24 months? Are issues like this common?

It is possible, but unusual to have contract durations other than multiples of 12 full months. You might have to persuade the landlord to agree to this - e.g. by offering a higher rent in exchange.
You are unlikely, though, to find such flexibility and goodwill through a property agent - so better search on your own!

Sign a 2 year lease and use the Diplomatic Clause to leave after 22 months
