How do I find a place to live in EAST COAST?

We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:

"Finding a place to live in East Coast, Singapore involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget. This will help you narrow down your options, as the cost of living in Singapore can be quite high. Next, decide on the type of accommodation you want. Singapore offers a range of options, from HDB flats and condominiums to landed properties and serviced apartments. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online property portals that you can use, such as PropertyGuru, 99.co, and SRX Property. These websites allow you to filter your search based on location, property type, price, and other factors. You can also engage a real estate agent to help you with your search. They can provide you with expert advice and access to properties that may not be listed online. When you find a property that you're interested in, arrange a viewing. This will give you a chance to inspect the property and the surrounding area. Before making a decision, consider factors such as the property's proximity to public transport, schools, and amenities, as well as the overall condition of the property. Once you've found a property that meets your needs, you can proceed with the rental or purchase process. This typically involves negotiating the price, signing a contract, and making a deposit. Finally, before moving in, make sure to check the property thoroughly and report any existing damages to the landlord or property agent. This will help you avoid any disputes later on. Remember, finding a place to live in East Coast, Singapore may take some time, so it's important to be patient and thorough in your search," said one person in EAST COAST.
