If the government continues to increase rentals without consideration for stall owners, there'll be nothing left of our UNESCO hawker culture. Is that what they want to see?

According to our reader, their purpose of bidding or buying over the hawker stalls is for the sole intent to rent out the stall at exorbitant prices to Citizens and PRs who are either unsuccessful in their bids or can’t afford to buy a stall in highly competitive areas.

Dear AllSingaporeStuff, I want to write in to tell you guys about this property agent on Facebook. I saw his post in the FB group that he got HDB and condo for rent so I message him to ask for more details because I was interested. But then when I …

Our reader informed us of a racist Carousell user who only wants to rent her Fernvale property to non-Indians. Whatever happened to "unifying the people"?

A foreign student residing in Singapore submitted a video of her landlady launching a vicious attack against herself after a rental dispute.

Sungei Road market vendor aired her worries about failing to find a suitable place to sell her wares. She cannot even afford a $50/day rent and is scrimping and saving despite her stomach problem.

Chinese Daily Wanbao has reported on the story of a 50 year-old woman who has been sleeping overnights in Changi Airport so she could earn some money from renting out her 3 room HDB flat. She has been living in the airport for the last 8 years and reaped a sizable sum from renting her whole flat.

Property agents please take note on these two indian EP holders. They rent my parents HDB rooms and tenancy started last wednesday, 06/07/2016. Yesterday, 10/06/2016, we spot check and caught 4 ang mohs, seems to be backpackers in our house. There are bras and panties hanging as laundries inside our house too. Mattress were layed all over the living room too and we have every right to suspect they turned the house into backpackers hostel.

Let me weigh in why I'm estatic and rejoicing over this sorry state of affairs over our downtown retail scene. Not too long ago, if your wages had been stagnated or lowered, or worse if you had lost your job because your employer couldn't afford to keep you, high chance it was because of rising costs. The key riding cost- retail space rentals. While landlords had a field day raising rentals and laughing their way to the bank, the workers have been on the suffering end of escalating rentals, all vulnerable with no real unions to protect them. Well, now I'm glad to see the camels back has broken. Businesses find it too expensive to operate here. Business are pulling back. Some even pulling out of Singapore. Time for landlords to suffer. Time to lower their rentals. After all this is a free market.
