Air date: Aug 23, 2012

An expat family based in Singapore wants to move from their large,single-family house to a condo. They want their young children to enjoy the facilities a condo offers like a pool and playground. In a condo community, there will also be other children for them to play with. But just before their house hunt is to begin, the husband is called away on an eight month business trip. Suddenly the mother is on her own. In an unusual turnabout, her wish list conflicts with what her family of four actually needs. It turns out that gorgeous new condos available in Singapore all have tiny rooms. Older condos have more space but aren't well maintained. Mom's hunt demands some challenging decisions as House Hunters International downsizes in Singapore.
