My condo has 2x government rate and pay between 1500-2000 versus normal rate but it's like administration cost included in it I guess and it's clearly stated in the agreement.
I must say though building is always neat and floor on the corridors is cleaner than in my condo, haha. So they really take good care of it.
I did. I'm abroad, in Malaysia currently. But at first I assumed it's only to submit application, not wait the whole, maybe lengthy process with unknown result... Eh.
