FAQs
Common rooms may cost up to 40% less than master rooms in the same property. The savings come from smaller size and shared bathroom access. However, factor in potential inconvenience costs like needing backup toiletries or adjusting your schedule around bathroom availability. For budget-conscious renters, the savings often justify the trade-offs.
A common bedroom (smaller room without attached bath) is usually a fit for single renters who want a more budget-friendly option. You’ll trade privacy for affordability, so focus on good housemate fit, clear rules, and a layout that gives you a calm place to unwind.
Not typically. You’ll rely on public gyms, community clubs, and neighbourhood pools. Many tenants prefer HDBs for value and convenience to everyday shops and transport.
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.
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.
Landed houses often have higher utility consumption due to larger spaces and multiple floors. Air-conditioning costs can be significant with bigger rooms and common areas. Water usage may be higher with garden watering. Discuss how utilities are split among housemates and whether there are caps or guidelines for usage to avoid bill shock.
Check that the kitchen has adequate ventilation to prevent cooking smells from overwhelming the living space. Ensure sufficient counter space for meal prep and storage for kitchen essentials. Look for a proper range hood and consider the proximity to your sleeping area. Some studios have kitchenettes with limited cooking capabilities - confirm this meets your culinary needs.
Often 2-bedroom units have two bathrooms: usually one attached to the master bedroom and a second common bathroom. This is great for convenience. However, some 2-bedroom flats only have one shared bathroom. Check the listing. Two bathrooms make life easier, but one is still manageable if you plan your routines.
