FAQs
Usually, but not always. Some ‘master’ rooms share a bathroom. Confirm if it’s attached, exclusive, and ventilated, and check water pressure, heater type, and any morning queue issues.
1-bedroom units offer better entertaining space than studios with separate living areas. However, overnight guests may need to use a sofa bed in the living room. Consider the bathroom situation - ensure guests don't need to go through your bedroom to access facilities. The kitchen size may limit your ability to cook for larger groups.
When relocating from overseas, arrange virtual viewings through video calls, request detailed photos and floor plans, and consider hiring a local representative for in-person viewings. Time viewings carefully around your arrival date, and prepare to make quick decisions in Singapore's fast-moving market. Have all required documents ready digitally, and consider temporary accommodation for your first few weeks to allow for proper in-person viewing before committing long-term.
Check for window safety features, electrical outlet covers, sharp corners on built-in furniture, and secure balcony railings. Look for adequate lighting, non-slip flooring in bathrooms, and whether the layout allows parents to supervise children easily. Consider proximity to playgrounds and family amenities.
Landed houses may have multiple entry points, ground-level access, and outdoor areas requiring different security considerations. Check all locks, consider motion sensors or security systems, and understand neighborhood security patterns. Establish routines for securing the property and coordinate with neighbors if appropriate.
You need to plan beyond just monthly rent. Budget for your security deposit, utility bills (electricity, water, gas), internet, and any regular maintenance or air-con servicing costs. Also factor in moving expenses and possible agent fees.
HDB rooms often have simpler finishes and fewer shared facilities but practical layouts and solid walls. You’ll trade pools or gyms for straightforward convenience. Prioritize block condition, elevator access, and nearby amenities over lifestyle facilities you won’t use.
Landed houses offer more space but lack condo facilities. You’ll likely get a bigger room and maybe a garden or yard to enjoy. However, you won’t have amenities like a pool or gym on-site. It’s a balance: more personal space and privacy in exchange for not having shared facilities.
