Asked by
Hi, we are meant to be moving to Singpore in July/Aug and my husbands work will pay the rent for the 2 years. We are trying to decide whether to get a container to ship our stuff or rent furnished. We have been told that a furnished property wouldn't be available for 2 years, only a shorter let. Is that the case? Many Thanks

Dear Jennie,

I customise solutions for expatriates coming into Singapore. To your question above, I would rather propose for you to go for a more comfortable option, meaning if you feel more at home with your own furnishings, look for apartments without furnishings, probably with white goods and appliance so you need not ship everything over.

Tenants can visit http://bit.ly/SGExpatRental (Official Rental Requirements - Singapore Expatriates) to indicate your rental requirements.

Good evening Jennie,

Not to worry. You will still be able to find landlords that are providing fully furnished units for 2 years lease.

By the way since you guys are coming over only in 3rd quarter, will you guys be dropping by probably 1 month earlier to hunt for a suitable place?

Hi Jennie,

Your info is incorrect.

You can lease a property FULLY Furnished for 2 years.

As to whether to ship in your furniture or not depends largely on how firm you are planning to live here.

If it is only for 2 years, it is much easier to lease FUlly furnished. That will safe you the hassle of Packing. shipping, unpacking, etc.

However, if there is a high possibility that your stay in Singapore may be extended to say, 4, 5 years, then maybe it makes more sense to ship in your stuff.

As for Fully furnished or partial furnished, for a short stay, 1, 2 years, sometimes it is easier to buy from here. After all, if you are not going for high end furnishing, it is not expensive.

I used to live in USA. I shipped my stuff there (for 5 years) and back to Singapore.
Packing is always a headache. Not forgetting unpacking.

I am happy to share more info with you.

Do contact me if you have more queries. Happy to also help you find your dream Home away from Home.

Hi Jennie,

I have recently assisted my clients, a couple from Denmark who have moved to Singapore to work for 2 years.

They have also managed to ship their full containers of furniture over. It's a good idea to ship them over as they will make you "feel at home". :)

In Singapore, a home on a 2 year lease can be unfurnished, partial furnished or fully furnished depending on your requirements. There is a lot of options in the market right now as there is an oversupply of units for rent so you can rest assured that there are many choices available.

Please feel free to contact me if you need any assistance or if you need help in your relocation plan.
