FAQs
At move-in, note any existing damage (take photos) and inform the landlord immediately so you’re not held liable. At move-out, return the home in the same condition: clean thoroughly, fix any minor damage you caused, and ensure all items are returned. This way you should get your deposit back.
Look for persistent damp smells, water stains, mold, warped wood, peeling paint, pest traces, and poor ventilation. Test taps, appliances, windows, and locks. If something seems off or the landlord avoids answering questions, consider it a red flag.
Generally, HDB flats are most affordable, condominiums cost 30-50% more than comparable HDB units, and landed houses are the most expensive. However, prices vary significantly by location - a prime location HDB might cost more than a suburban condo. Factor in additional costs like condo maintenance fees, landed house utilities, and transport expenses when comparing total housing costs.
Communicate openly about issues before they escalate, respect shared spaces, be considerate with noise and cleanliness, and contribute fairly to household expenses. Participate in house meetings, be flexible with compromises, and remember that small gestures like shared meals can build positive relationships.
Take advantage of amenities to justify higher rent costs. Use the gym instead of paying for external memberships, utilize the pool for exercise and relaxation, and book function rooms for gatherings. Many condos offer additional services like concierge, dry cleaning pickup, or maintenance services. Factor these conveniences into your rental value assessment.
Ventilation and sunlight can make a small room feel more comfortable and livable. Natural light makes the space feel more open and pleasant, and it can even improve your mood. See if it has a window that opens to outdoors (and not just into a corridor or airwell). Good ventilation and light are key for your daily comfort in that space.
No private pools or gyms, but you’ll find community clubs, sports centres, and public pools nearby. Many tenants prefer the neighbourhood feel and everyday convenience.
With multiple rooms and potentially multiple air-con units, electricity costs can be substantial. Consider zoned cooling - only cool rooms that are in use. LED lighting throughout the unit reduces electricity consumption. If sharing with others, discuss fair splitting of utilities based on actual usage patterns rather than equal division.
