5 Reasons I Won't Buy a Property in Singapore

Описание: In this video, I delve into my personal decision as an Australian expat to rent property in Singapore rather than buying. Join me as I explore the key reasons behind this choice, offering my perspectives for fellow expats considering their living options in Singapore.

Understanding the Singapore Property Market: I begin by providing an overview of Singapore's unique property market, highlighting how it differs from what I'm accustomed to in Australia.

Financial Considerations: I break down the financial aspects of buying versus renting in Singapore, including the high cost of ownership, taxes, and the potential financial flexibility that comes with renting.

Legal Restrictions and Ownership Rules: As a non-resident, there are specific legal restrictions and ownership rules in Singapore that can impact the buying process. I explain these and how they influenced my decision.

Lifestyle Flexibility: I discuss how renting offers more flexibility, which is crucial for expats who might not have long-term plans in Singapore.

Market Volatility and Investment Risks: I analyse the risks associated with investing in the Singaporean real estate market, especially for expats who may not be familiar with the local market dynamics.
