Foreigners Can Now Be Property Agents In Singapore! Yay! Costs Coming Down!

[JohnTan]

A reader recently sent us this Facebook post by Mr Daniel Anil Das, who produced shocking evidence that foreigners are now allowed to be real restate or property agents in Singapore. He has produced a letter from the Council For Estate Agencies informing him that as long as foreigners fulfill its criteria, they will be allowed to register as estate agents!

Hello my dear RES friends, and fellow citizens

It was brought to my attention about foreigners being RES(real estate salesperson)..I didn't believe that so I wrote in to CEA, which had a prompt response.

We as RES, have already been fighting for every dollar, and now we have to share this with foreigners?Apparently, this is also in the financial planning sector as well..now my question is, are these two industries really in need of foreigners? or is it because these foreigners "add value" to the foreigners coming in? These have been taken care of by the PR holders..so why EP? Can any of my learned friends explain this policy?

My vote is hanging on the balance now..Sidd and Ms.Q, here is your evidence..

As landlord, I like foreign agents the best, they can pull in foreign buyers and tenants form their home countries without even them coming to Singapore, sinkie agents only good at waiting for durian to drop by waiting for foreigners to come to Singapore, too late already. Sinkies are doomed.

This is great news especially during this period. PAP is doing its best to give jobs to foreigners instead of undeserving lazy sinkies.
