The Cristallo is managed by Ocean IFM, one of the three largest managing agents in this directory with 138 developments on its books. The estate's own management office sits at street level in the building, at 70 Lorong K Telok Kurau #01-01, Singapore 425687, and answers on 6386 7242.
The management corporation
The corporation is MCST 4280, registered as UEN T16MC0025H. Both identifiers matter more than they look: the MCST number is what the office and the authorities use to refer to the estate, while the UEN is what appears on invoices, insurance documents and anything filed with a government agency. Owners letting out a unit, or contractors raising a quotation, will usually be asked for one or the other.
What to bring it
Renovation works are the most common reason to walk in. A management corporation can set conditions on hacking, wet works, working hours and the disposal of debris, and can require a deposit against damage to the common property — so the permit is worth settling before a contractor is booked, not after. The office also issues access cards, handles common-area faults, and holds the estate's by-laws.
Where it is
Lorong K Telok Kurau is one of the numbered lorongs off Telok Kurau Road, in District 15 — the Katong, Joo Chiat and Marine Parade area. Street parking on the lorongs is limited; the nearest public carparks with live lot counts are worth checking before driving over. Enquiries that can wait are best put in writing to the office.
