Tanglin Park had dated bathrooms. Mutiara Crest was brand new but small at 1300 sq. She had a very wide master bed headboard. Claremont was most suitable but there is a shortfall of units available. The Clayton had no balcony but had the big master bedroom, lots of closets, spacious 2nd and 3rd bedrooms and a utility area but is located further away from Orchard Road.
New condos have small master bedrooms.
It is extremely tough to find a new 3-bedroom, over 1600 sq. It is a great challenge to find a master bedroom large enough to accommodate a very wide master bed headboard plus two bedside tables. Time is of the essence as the rental realtor will be competing against the other realtors. Many older rental realtors give up as they find that they will not be able to close with no loyal clientele. You will have to decide when to cut loss too or you can take the viewing trip as an opportunity to qualify good rental properties and to know the various characteristics of such properties so that you can close faster with the next expatriate.
