FAQs
Agree on clear house rules with your flatmates early. Clarify quiet hours, overnight guests, cooking frequency, kitchen use, fridge space, and laundry timing. Discuss cleaning expectations for kitchen and bathrooms. Check rules about smoking or pets. Setting these expectations from the start helps prevent conflicts and keeps everyone comfortable.
For multiple generations, prioritize accessibility and privacy. Make sure one bedroom for grandparents is easy to reach (no stairs) and near a bathroom. A 4-bedroom with a second en-suite (junior master) is ideal to give older parents their own space. Ensure there's plenty of common area for family gatherings, but also enough rooms or corners for privacy when needed. That way, everyone has a comfortable room and nobody feels cramped.
Condos usually have special move-in procedures. Expect lift bookings with protective padding and refundable deposits. Paperwork may include forms and ID copies. Schedule deliveries within approved windows and keep receipts. Planning this early avoids movers waiting downstairs while approvals are sorted last minute.
Landed houses may require more frequent maintenance like roof repairs, plumbing work, or garden care that can disrupt daily routines. Understand notification procedures for maintenance work, temporary access restrictions, and how repairs might affect your room's utilities or accessibility. Plan accordingly for potentially longer disruption periods.
Create zones with rugs, shelving, and lighting changes. Use furniture placement to carve out separate areas. For example, a shelf or screen can divide your bed from the rest of the space. Try to group your bed, sofa, and desk separately, so sleeping, relaxing, and working each have their own corner in the room.
Singapore's diverse rental market means you'll likely live with people from different cultures. Be open-minded about different cooking styles, religious practices, and lifestyle habits. Establish ground rules early about shared spaces, food storage, and cultural celebrations. Respect dietary restrictions and prayer times. This diversity can be enriching if approached with understanding and clear communication.
Yes. Check that there’s an aircon in each bedroom and the living room. Make sure they all work. Also note the number of power outlets in each room. Some older flats have few sockets, so ensure there’s one where you plan to put your TV or computer. If not, you’ll need extension cords. Knowing this upfront helps you plan.
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.
