FAQs
Prepare a list of questions about utilities, maintenance, lease terms, and neighborhood amenities. Bring a measuring tape for furniture planning and take photos/videos for later comparison. Check water pressure, electrical outlets, mobile reception, and natural light. View properties at different times if possible to assess noise levels and traffic patterns.
Address issues early through calm, direct conversation before they escalate. Use 'I' statements to express how situations affect you rather than making accusations. Suggest practical solutions and be willing to compromise. If direct communication fails, involve the landlord or main tenant as a mediator. Document serious issues and consider whether the living situation is sustainable long-term.
Aim to return the home in similar condition, focusing on kitchens, bathrooms, and flooring. Degrease hoods, wipe seals, and clear drains. Replace spent bulbs and wash removable filters. Provide dated photos after cleaning to support a smooth deposit outcome.
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.)
Address excessive utility usage diplomatically but firmly. Document patterns with photos of meter readings or bills showing spikes. Propose individual monitoring solutions like smart plugs for high-energy appliances or separate air-con timers. Consider splitting bills proportionally based on actual usage rather than equally. If direct conversation fails, involve the landlord to mediate or implement individual metering systems.
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.
Condo living offers natural opportunities to meet neighbors through shared facilities like pools, gyms, and BBQ areas. Be respectful of facility rules and considerate of others' usage. Participate in condo events or activities if available. However, respect privacy - some residents prefer minimal interaction. Building good relationships can lead to helpful neighbors and a more pleasant living experience.
In a landed house, residents handle all the cleaning. Large spaces (living rooms, kitchen, stairs) mean more work, so housemates should set a chore routine or hire a cleaner together. Agreeing on who cleans what (and when) keeps the big home comfortable for everyone.
