FAQs
Open kitchens feel social and spacious but spread cooking smells. Closed kitchens contain noise and grease better. Think about your cooking style, ventilation, and how often you host. The right choice depends on whether you prioritize openness or cleanup ease.
Yes, condo facilities often have rules and booking systems. For example, certain amenities like the BBQ pit or function room must be reserved with management in advance. These facilities also have specific rules like fixed time limits and cleanup requirements. Meanwhile, the pool or gym generally don’t require booking, but they have set hours and basic usage guidelines.
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.
HDB has ethnic integration policies that may affect room rentals. Some HDB flat owners can only rent to tenants of certain ethnic groups to maintain racial balance in the block. This is a government policy, not discrimination. Ask landlords upfront about any restrictions and understand it's about maintaining community diversity, not personal preference.
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.
HDB estates often have nearby markets, food courts, clinics, schools, and community centers. Many have playgrounds, fitness corners, and resident committee activities. Check proximity to essential services, public transport, and whether the estate has active community programs that might interest you.
Look for layouts where bedrooms don't directly face each other for better privacy. Check if both bedrooms have windows for natural light and ventilation. Consider whether the kitchen is open or closed to the living area - open kitchens feel spacious but cooking smells spread. Ensure there's adequate storage throughout the unit, not just in bedrooms.
Renovations are common in HDB estates, so occasional daytime drilling or hacking noise is normal. Work is only allowed during set hours, but it can still be disruptive if a nearby unit is being redone. Know that it’s temporary and typically accompanied by advance notice to residents.
