    SINGAPORE'S plans to expand its pool of foreign tech talent under a new scheme may help to boost the private home rental market here, property consultants said.

    "Based on what we've seen, there have already been more and more highly skilled expats moving to Singapore from the first quarter of this year. Some of them are regional directors or CEOs," Christine Sun, head of research and consultancy at OrangeTee said.
