Re: Issues with neighbor tenant in CBD condo - what options do I have?

thanks everyone for their inputs. I was able to convince Management to contact the owner. However the owner of the unit is not even living in Singapore (foreign investor), difficult case. I will probably take the route over SPCA, NEA, AVA the soonest. Will post soon the outcome!

Dear all, I moved into my current unit 5 months ago. After 3 months I did the aircon servicing. The technician mentioned that all is ok, just that the outside devices (on the balcony) are very dirty and that some cooling liquid is running low. He asked me if I want to change now or next time, I post...

I asked him if there is not a 3rd card. He agreed and said that the landlord keeps the 3rd card for "emergency cases" and he mentiond t...

Hi everyone, thanks for your inputs and ideas. Tinking of let him go looks like the smartest option. Regarding the TA: it only states my name and my signature except under the paragraph "occupants" it states also his name. But me as the main tenant should be allowed to change occupants any time?
