How do I find a place to live in Orchard Road?

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

"Finding a place to live in Orchard Road involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget. The cost of living in Orchard Road is quite high compared to other parts of Singapore due to its prime location. Next, decide on the type of accommodation you want. Options range from condominiums, serviced apartments, to landed properties. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, start your search. You can use online property portals like PropertyGuru, 99.co, and SRX Property. These websites allow you to filter your search based on location, property type, price range, and other factors. Alternatively, you can engage a real estate agent to help you in your search. They have extensive knowledge of the property market and can provide you with options that fit your criteria. When you find a potential place, arrange for a viewing. This will give you a better idea of the property's condition, its surroundings, and whether it suits your needs. If you're satisfied with the property, you can proceed to negotiate the lease terms. Make sure to read the contract thoroughly and understand all the terms and conditions before signing. Lastly, once everything is in order, you can move into your new home in Orchard Road. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's important to start your search early," said one person in Orchard Road.
