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.
Yes. Many landed homes have two or three storeys, so you'll be using stairs daily. If you have young children or elderly family, consider safety (installing baby gates, sturdy handrails). Different floors give privacy with bedrooms separate from living areas, but you'll also be climbing up and down a lot.
You get an extra room to use flexibly. For example, parents in one room, kids in another, and the third bedroom becomes a study, home office, or helper’s room. Basically, the third room means you don’t have to sacrifice having an office or guest space—you can have both.
Landed houses often have helper's quarters or space for live-in domestic help. Clarify with your landlord whether you can employ helpers, if there are designated helper areas, and what additional costs or responsibilities this entails. Understand helper accommodation standards, work permit requirements, and whether helper facilities like separate bathrooms or kitchens are included in your rental.
In most 3-bedroom flats, bedrooms are grouped away from the living area. Often a hallway leads to the bedrooms, separate from the living room. This helps keep noise from TV or guests in the living room from reaching the bedrooms easily.
Short stays exist but many landlords prefer 12‑month leases. If you need flexibility, ask about minimum term, extension options, and early termination fees before you pay a deposit.
Address cleanliness issues diplomatically by establishing clear cleaning schedules and standards upfront. Document problems with photos if needed, and discuss solutions rather than blame. Consider implementing a cleaning roster, shared cleaning supplies fund, or hiring occasional deep cleaning. If issues persist, involve the landlord or main tenant as mediator. Sometimes different cultural or personal standards require compromise and clear communication.
Most condos have strict renovation guidelines that tenants must follow. You typically cannot make structural changes, install permanent fixtures, or renovate during restricted hours. Even minor changes like painting or installing shelves may require management approval and deposits. Always check with building management and get landlord consent before making any modifications.
