Overview

About the book.

Buying, selling or renting Singapore property is a big decision. The rules sit with many agencies and change often. This visual guide puts them in one place, for homes, condominiums and commercial property.

Every page gives you one idea, one clear diagram, a plain explanation and one thing to check. No jargon walls, no hunting through agency websites. Open any page and you can see how the rule works in under a minute.

The book follows the order of a purchase: the market and the kinds of property, buying and new launches, the legal steps, stamp duties and the total cost, loans and CPF, returns, letting out a home or a commercial unit, tax, risk, selling and case studies. A reference part and a list of official sources close the book.
