Living Cost In singapore for?

  • Hi I'm working as Sr. Engineer in India and now got offer from a consultancy in Singapore for 4500 SGD Pm.. I'm getting married by End of this year thus my wife will also join me there . I want to ask is this a good Package and will I be able to save a good money after paying all bills(Rent, food, elect, transport)? Post My marrige we will be cooking at home and I'll be required 1BHK Furnished house or a spacius furnished studio apartment. Can anyone provide some tentative expensive on above mentioned specifications as well based on PM basis. Thanks... And whats the return flight cost(Singapore - Delhi) in INR or SGD for a single person?

  • Answer:

    S$4500 is quite alot of money. I worked as IT consultant for 6 years, still unable to get this amount. It's should be more than enough for two person. Rental for a baisc HDB 3 room flat (Public Housing) will cost you about S$1200 per month. For private housing will be much more expensive from S$1500 onwards. Daily expenses of S$400 per month should be enough for you, include meal and transportation. Thus, you shoud still have a saving of S$1500 or more per month if you spend your money wisely.

Yeah...I agree with Tan...You just have to watch out for the kind of house you are renting/buying.Some may spent too much on house.Other than that your income should be very comfortable for living in Singapore.

Tan's answer isquite reasonable. However, you may wish to add a contingency of say another S$3-500 just in case you need to spend on something which you may not have expected to while shopping around and if need be the occasional taxi trips. I stayed in Singapore between November/December last year and I rented a room at Punggol. I paid S$500 for the room - no cooking as I was invited to join the owners (an elderly couple) for meals.

$4500 should be enough for you and your wife. There's a lot of decent rental housing between $1200 to $2000. or you can even share the house and pay less. I worked there between 2001 to 2005, my wife stayed in the Philippines. I shared the house with my work mates which cost me $350. I was also making $4500. I saved a lot.
