I just rented a place and took 15% off the asking price, 5% is BS it's hardly even a discount, stop being a nob JR8, it's not helping the OP...
I am sure when the new properties in Singapore TOP in the coming 12 months then property prices for "older" condos will drop again slightly, thing is, property availability is about to very much outweigh the immigration (lets face it, only the foreigners rent properties here!) when that happens all the owners will be clamoring for tenants.
next time you'll get it cheaper - consider this lesson learnt
