FAQs
You can use a spare bedroom in many ways. It could be your home office or study, a guest room for visitors, or even a hobby room. Some people turn the extra room into a walk-in closet or extra storage. Essentially, it's bonus space you can adapt to your needs.
3-bedroom units offer excellent flexibility for families. Start with a master bedroom, nursery, and guest room/study. As children grow, convert the study to a second child's room. The extra space allows for toy storage, play areas, and separate study zones. Consider child-proofing requirements and proximity to good schools when choosing location.
Older HDB flats are usually more spacious but come with age. They might have older fittings and be a bit more worn, and some can get warm if they lack modern ventilation or insulation. Newer flats have updated interiors and designs, but they often trade off some space – rooms and living areas might be smaller. Think about whether you prefer the extra room of an older flat (and don’t mind a bit of old-school charm) or the fresh finish of a newer, albeit cozier, flat.
Landed houses usually offer better parking options than condos or HDBs. Check if parking is included in rent and how many cars are allowed. Some have covered parking or car ports. Confirm access hours if there are automatic gates, and ask about visitor parking arrangements. Street parking rules vary by area, so understand local regulations.
Yards need care. Ask if the landlord handles gardening or if tenants must do it. You might be expected to do basics like watering plants or mowing the lawn. If you share the house, agree on a plan so the outdoor space is maintained without overburdening anyone.
Ask about work schedules, sleep schedules, social habits, cleanliness, and how issues are handled. If one of you is very neat and the other more casual, it could cause friction. Observe fridge organization, sink state, and bathroom tidiness during viewing. Look for someone whose daily routine and approach to shared living align well with yours. Trust your instincts – feeling comfortable with their personality is a good sign.
HDB's ethnic integration policy may limit rental options based on the current ethnic composition of the block. This affects both tenants and landlords. Be prepared for potential limitations and understand that this is a government policy designed to maintain racial harmony, not discrimination by individual landlords.
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.
