  • If anyone asks tell them you are visiting someone.
  • No photos of the condo.

Since I have had numerous rentals, it sent up flags big time.

Awkward moment came as we walked the grounds and we ran into people they knew from a former city who now owned a condo here. They asked who we were visiting.... ummm "Andy" and we prayed all weekend that we would get to keep the condo and not get kicked out.
IF I remember correctly, it is technically illegal for householders in Singapore to use their house as short term rentals.

Then again in Singapore, people do say that "do anything but don't get caught"....
