Hello Mr Cartwrdg, welcome to our lovely Singapore. You can easily go for condominium housing that non-citizens are eligible to purchase, in the location of your choice. Sentosa Cove is the only location non-citizens can purchase "landed" houses without need to process for approval from relevant authorities. There are lots of beautiful condo as well as basic requirements for your choice. upon purchase, Stamp duty is applicable to all buyers, citizens alike, and this amount is simply based on 3% of sale price minus a S$5400. You will be advised by representative lawyer. From 13 Jan 2011, there is ruling enforcement of seller tax duty on decreasing percentage : 16% of selling quantum if sold within 1st year of purchase, down to 4% within 4th year, and none thereafter. Thus you may consider to rent if you intend to leave within 4 years of stay. For additional info you may write to lynnruiyu@hotmail.com Read More

Dear sir/madam,

My fellow agents have explained to you in details on the various restrictions for foreign property buyers.

I have an excellent unit, a penthouse apartment with private roof terrace at the fringe of the city for sale. There are 2 bedrooms for this property which has been well renovated and if you like, can purchase it with all the furnitures which are less than 2 years old. The present owner has kept the unit in tip top condition. What's more, this property is less than 10 minutes away from the Farrer Park MRT Station and shopping mall. Great access from all other parts of Singapore. Should you be interested in this unit, please contact me further.

Regards,
