FAQs
Clarify whether you can use gardens, patios, or outdoor areas, and what maintenance responsibilities you might have. Some landlords allow tenants to use outdoor spaces for relaxation or small gatherings, while others restrict access. Understand any rules about outdoor furniture, plants, or modifications.
HDB estates often have nearby markets, food courts, clinics, schools, and community centers. Many have playgrounds, fitness corners, and resident committee activities. Check proximity to essential services, public transport, and whether the estate has active community programs that might interest you.
Many require a booked timeslot for lift padding and may collect a refundable deposit. Confirm required forms, booking windows, and whether your landlord handles them. Plan deliveries to match the approved window so movers aren’t turned away unexpectedly.
Decide early on how to keep the place clean. Many housemates create a rotating chore schedule so each person takes turns cleaning common areas (like kitchen, bathroom) each week. Alternatively, some households chip in to hire a part-time cleaner for a couple of hours weekly or bi-weekly. The key is to ensure everyone is on board with the plan. Also, basic etiquette helps – everyone should clean up after themselves (wash your dishes, don’t leave personal stuff all over common spaces) so the home stays tidy day-to-day.
Often 2-bedroom units have two bathrooms: usually one attached to the master bedroom and a second common bathroom. This is great for convenience. However, some 2-bedroom flats only have one shared bathroom. Check the listing. Two bathrooms make life easier, but one is still manageable if you plan your routines.
Families need significant storage for clothing, toys, school supplies, and household items. Look for built-in wardrobes in each bedroom, linen closets, kitchen storage, and utility areas. Check if there's a storeroom, under-stair storage, or if you can add storage furniture without overcrowding the space.
Modern units may include smart locks, video intercoms, app-controlled air-conditioning, or smart lighting. Understand how these systems work and whether you'll have admin access. Check if these features increase your rent or utility costs, and ensure you're comfortable using the technology.
Landed houses may require additional insurance considerations due to ground-level access, gardens, and potential flooding risks. Check if your landlord's insurance covers tenant belongings and liability for accidents on the property. Consider additional coverage for valuable items and personal liability, especially if you have guests using outdoor areas or pools.
