dean 5 Report post Posted May 6, 2010 (edited) got 1 agent told me rental rate can be $600-700 for 2 pax i can't believe that master bedroom with furnished aircon, study desk, built in wardrobe for 2 pax can rent for $680. That is a stupid rental rate. Edited May 6, 2010 by dean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any diff in the renting rate for lower & uppel level? IMHO, I don't see any difference in the rents for a room in 3-rm, 4-rm, 5-rm or EM of the same area unless the whole unit instead of a room is rented out. There's only a difference in the rents for a room in a private condo versa a room in a HDB. You can check property sites to see what other rooms nearby your block are quoting for their rents. Afterall, they are your "competitors". Tenants will compare their rooms to your rooms. Lot of people are renting out rooms now.

Hi forgotten, Yup, no difference for HDB single room rental, most important is location/accessibility....your other room rented out already? ^^ Edited May 7, 2010 by Plastic3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I need to know so that if I need to rent out 2 rooms (2 tenants in a room), they won't be comparing "Hey, they are staying at upper level, they should pay more".....

If the rooms are about the same size should not be much of an issue, but some EMs the room on the 1st level is quite small compared to the rooms on the 2nd level...this maybe an issue... but personally if I am a tenant staying in EM, i'd rather stay on the 1st level, dont have to climb stairs and nearer to kitchen ^^ Thanks. Yeah my tenants have already moved in last week. Congrats =) (I shall remove the ad) Edited May 7, 2010 by Plastic3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wonderlee 1 Report post Posted May 7, 2010 Oh, they are the same size.. I understand the climbing & privacy portions. Thanks Plastic3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
