FAQs
Condos often have specific rules about tenant behavior, pet policies, noise restrictions, and guest limitations. Some prohibit short-term rentals, have strict move-in procedures, or limit the number of occupants. Understand parking allocations, facility usage rights, and any restrictions on modifications. Violating condo rules can affect your tenancy even if your landlord approves certain activities.
Clarify which accounts must be in your name and how meter readings are recorded at handover. Photograph readings and sockets you’ll use heavily. Schedule installation visits early so internet and power changes don’t disrupt your first week routines.
Landed properties may require different maintenance approaches for multiple levels, outdoor areas, and potentially more complex systems. Understand your responsibilities versus the landlord's, know how to access different areas safely, and establish procedures for reporting issues. Consider whether you're comfortable with the maintenance demands of a larger property.
Not all HDB blocks have lifts on every floor. In some older blocks, the lift may stop only on certain levels, meaning you’d need to take the stairs for a floor or two. Check if the flat’s floor has direct lift access for convenience, especially if you have lots to carry or anyone with mobility issues. (Newer blocks usually have lifts on every floor.)
Short-term rentals (6 months or less) offer flexibility for uncertain situations but typically cost 10-20% more per month and provide less stability. Long-term leases (1-2 years) usually offer better rates, priority during renewals, and stable housing, but limit your ability to relocate quickly. Consider your career stability, relationship status, and life plans. Many landlords prefer long-term tenants and may offer incentives like rent freezes or minor upgrades.
Renovations are common in HDB estates, so occasional daytime drilling or hacking noise is normal. Work is only allowed during set hours, but it can still be disruptive if a nearby unit is being redone. Know that it’s temporary and typically accompanied by advance notice to residents.
More space means more maintenance responsibilities. Budget extra time and money for cleaning, air-con servicing for multiple units, and potential repairs across more rooms. Consider hiring help for regular cleaning or establish clear maintenance schedules if sharing. More space also means higher wear and tear on common areas.
Popular facilities like BBQ pits, function rooms, and tennis courts often require advance booking and may have peak time restrictions. Weekend slots fill up quickly, especially for BBQ areas. Some facilities have time limits or cleaning deposits. Download the condo's app or check with management about booking procedures, cancellation policies, and any additional charges for facility usage.
