FAQs
No, they aren’t equal. Usually, the master bedroom is largest, and the other bedrooms are smaller. Often the third bedroom is particularly tiny – fine for a kid or study, but tight for a big bed. So check dimensions: one room will likely be much smaller than the master.
Sharing with 3+ roommates requires clear agreements about shared spaces, cleaning schedules, utility splits, and house rules. Consider personality compatibility, lifestyle habits, and how to handle conflicts. Establish guidelines for common areas, guest policies, and what happens if someone moves out mid-lease.
HDB flats open onto a common corridor. If your unit is along a corridor with neighbors walking by, you might need to keep your gates or curtains closed at times for privacy. Corner or end units offer a bit more seclusion since fewer people pass your door. When viewing a flat, notice the corridor layout – if the windows or door face a busy walkway, plan on using curtains/blinds for privacy. It’s a different feel from a private condo, but most residents get used to it.
Master rooms often face away from common corridors and have better sound insulation. The ensuite means fewer bathroom queue interactions with housemates. Larger windows might offer better views and natural light. However, check if the master room faces busy streets or neighboring blocks, which could impact privacy and noise levels.
Common arrangements include parents' master bedroom, children's shared room, and a guest/study room. Some families give each child their own room, while others use one as a home office or playroom. Consider your family's current and future needs, including whether children will want separate rooms as they grow.
Common deductions include excessive cleaning needs, damaged furniture or fixtures, unpaid utilities, missing keys or access cards, and alterations made without permission. Normal wear and tear should not be deducted. Take detailed photos at move-in and move-out to document the property's condition. Keep all receipts for any repairs or replacements you make.
Go furnished for convenience and lower upfront setup, but inspect furniture condition and note wear expectations. Choose unfurnished for flexibility and hygiene control, factoring in delivery time, storage needs, and the effort to move items at lease end. It really depends on whether you have furniture and want to customize the space or prefer a move-in-ready setup.
Landed properties typically have higher utility costs due to size, multiple levels, and outdoor areas. Understand how water, electricity, and gas are metered, whether outdoor lighting or water features affect costs, and if there are separate meters for different areas. Budget accordingly for potentially significant utility expenses.
