Asked by
We are thinking about relocating to Singapore. With regard to rental prices, they're often indicated as being "negotiable". Can anybody elaborate on the leeway that is customary in Singapore in terms of negotiations? Are we talking about 5, 10 or 20% ?
Thank you for your help.

Hi Swiss family,

Perhaps u can let your agent to represent yourself in negotiating the deal for you as the agent himself will be more knowledgeable in the project's asking prices and able to advise better on the rental price to accept the deal.

    Hi Brandon, Thank you, we will definitely do so. However, our intention was to just get an indication, whether "negotiable" means a considerable amount per month or just a few per cent. Cheers, Swiss Family

Dear Swiss Family,

Welcome to Singapore.

There is no firm indication on percentage of discount.

It depends very much on the supply and demand level of the unit you are looking at.

Secondly, due to the current economy down turn, some owners are more motivated to negotiate rather than holding on to the unit.
The agent who is serving you should be able to access the right level of pricing.
Good Luck!
