Finally...but will this be enough to cool down the HDB subsale market??
Why not just prevent SPR from buying instead, HDB should be ONLY for Singaporean...hmmm....
And will JB gain from this? I would certainly think so.

The link is here... http://www.todayonline.com/Hotnews/...nauthorised-subletting,-revises-rules-for-PRs

If anything, this is going to drive up the HDB rental prices. This is good for current HDB flat owners who plan to rent out their flats and live in JB.

Actually I am thinking of renting out HDB now , should I wait for a few more months for supply to dry out first ?

If I were you I will not wait. You are losing a few months' rent which may not be offset by any potential rent increase.

I totally agree with this...unless the wait really justifies the increase ie wait 3months and the rental will be +30%...otherwise, I will most probably take it as it is. You could also choose a shorter tenancy agreement of one year instead of waiting this out. My 3sen worth of thoughts.

My bad, some how eye-got-stamped. I meant no offense to any race. Was just questioning why the article seemed to only interview one race. Well, my amended question will be, "Why no Chinese interviewed?" :biggrin:


Peace sir, i know 2bfree(or at least i think so).
Likely he just missed it out and just remarked.

Very direct and blunt person but no offence meant i am sure.
One of those rare people who are still honest and direct.

I agree is fair , this new rule restricting subletting of HDB applying to SPRs . HDB is meant for living in, not an investment tool.

Just be careful of the rule governing HDB owners of even foreign private property (like in JB) that apply to everyone in Singapore.

If more foreigners become Singaporeans the problem of high property prices will not be fixed. But it can do for the short term... such cooling measures for sure better than increasing interest rates.

Medini Lifestyle Mall (located beside Legoland), when fully completed, will be more than 11 times the size of the present Johor Premium Outlets.
There will be indoor sky diving and indoor go-kart, indoor ice skating, laser tag, bowling and arcade centre, cinemas etc. :smile:

Coming September 2012, they are opening only 10% of the total area. :(
