SINGAPORE BUNGALOWS
Caucasian
expatriates, the bulk of asiahomes.com clientele are interested in 2
types of bungalows - the ordinary ones and the black and white ones.
Amongst the ordinary ones, there is a special class called the GCB.
The term "Good
Class Bungalow
(GCB)" is used by the Urban Renewal Authority to categorise an
exclusive category of housing which will be low rise. There are
around 39 residential areas designated as Good Class Bungalow areas
and in Districts 10, 11, 21 and 23.
A bungalow that falls within the boundaries of such GCB areas is
subject to a minimum land plot size to be be 1,400 sq m (15,070 sq
ft) and building height of 2-storeys only.
These good class bungalow areas include Nassim Road and Cluny Road
in District 10, Ridley Park off Tanglin Road, Peirce Road/
Swettenham Road and into Ford Avenue/ Leedon Park off Holland Road,
Duchess Road, Brizay Park and King Albert Park, Chee Hoon Avenue,
Eng Neo Avenue and Swiss Club Road, Binjai Park and Yarwood Avenue &
Chestnut Avenue in district 23.
There are around 1,000 GCB or around 10% of Total Detached Stock.
Selling price varies from $6 million to above $10 million.
Newer bungalows are built with gross floor areas ranging from 650 sq
m to 850 sq m (approximately 7,000 sq ft to 9,150 sq ft) in 2002.
Black & White
Bungalows
are a perennial favourite of many Caucasian expats. They are owned
or managed by three or four corporations.
Unfortunately, these corporations do NOT pay the housing agent
commissions on success and almost all agents in Singapore will NOT
want to show such bungalows as agents are mainly self employed and
earn a commission on closing.
NEW SERVICE TO EXPATS WILLING TO PAY ASIAHOMES AGENCY COMMISSIONS:
 Expats
who are interested in these black and white bungalows and in
Asiahomes.com realtors showing them the various units and willing to
pay half a month's rent on success (irrespective of one or
two-year lease),
please email
judy@asiahomes.com or tel +65 9668 6468 to let us know that you
will be willing to pay the commission and we will research all units
available from various government linked corporations, make
appointments and get you what you want at the best rental package.
We trust that prospective expatriate tenants will NOT then negotiate
directly with the 'Landlords' after we have shown you the places as
we earn a livelihood based on commissions.
NOTE: Human resource managers have clout over expatriates
In Singapore, some human resource managers can be quite powerful and
have financial arrangements with "retained" company realtors. This
means that prospective expatriate employees MUST use the "retained"
realtors.
Please check with your human resource manager or your Managing
Director/Chairman whether you may be permitted by the human resource
manager to use the services of asiahomes.com realtors to show you
the black and white bungalows or other properties.
PLEASE NOTE that rentals are usually above $8,000 per month for
decent bungalows.
You can rent some black and white bungalow for $5,000 per month on
condition that you repair any leaks and pay for maintenance
problems. 90% of such lower priced black and white
bungalows are not worth your trouble but there are expats who have
deep pockets to pay for repairs and leaks.
See case study:
Should the expat contact the Government Landlord now?
