Inspired by this article, on Singapore’s best Applications, iProperty.com Singapore has put together its list of the best applications for your smart phone or tabloid for finding, decorating and living in a property in Singapore.
iProperty.com Singapore
Alright, alright, we’re blowing our own trumpet – but if you’re looking to rent, buy or sell a property in Singapore, the iProperty.com Singapore iPhone App is hard to beat.
It has over 40,000 places for sale and lease in its database, of which you can search by location, price, size, agent, developer, amongst other options. The app also delivers property-related news.
Don’t just take our word for it though. Simon Baker, editor at Property Portal Watch, praised its versatility and breadth of search options saying, “Users can easily search properties by proximity or a range of different search criteria. They can also view driving directions, loan calculators, and easliy contact agents from each listing page.” iProperty has a good track record in producing popular property apps, their sister site iproperty.com.my’s app, which made it to the top of the free apps list after its launch only a few weeks ago.

Handy Carpenter
You’ve just purchased your new home, but now you want to decorate it to suit your style and taste. While HDB regulations and limitations of knowledge mean that you will have to get a professional contractor for the big stuff, a little knowledge of DIY can go a long way.
At this time of year it seems only appropriate that we feature something that a carpenter might use, and the Handy Carpenter App has some of the most useful carpentry tools on it, including:
- A plumb bob, the easiest way for you to verify the vertical of lines or walls
- A surface level, the best tool to check if a surface is flat
- A steel protractor, measuring angles from 0 to 180 degrees.
-
A steel ruler, supporting both inches and centimetres. By swiping it left and right, you measure things much longer than your iPhone.

Living Room
Some people are blessed with looking at a room and intuitively seeing what should go where, others require much more visual stimulation. The Living Room app allows users to plan out the rooms in their property – customising the size and shape of the room – and laying out furniture and other items in a variety of materials.
One of the advantages of this app is its connectivity with Facebook and Twitter integration and the ability to e-mail (as a PDF) or save to your photo library. After all, what’s the point of desigining your dream home if you can’t share it with everyone else on your social network?
