FAQs
Void decks host community events, celebrations, and sometimes funeral wakes that can create noise and activity. Lower floor rooms may be more affected by these activities. While these are part of HDB community life, understand the typical schedule and duration of events, and plan accordingly for noise-sensitive activities like sleep or work calls.
Typically, there's a built-in wardrobe in the bedroom and cabinets in the kitchen. Some 1-bedroom flats include a small storeroom or utility closet. Use vertical space by adding shelves in empty spots. And choose furniture with storage, like a bed with drawers or an ottoman that opens.
Choose multi-functional furniture like a loft bed with desk underneath or storage ottomans. Use mirrors to create illusion of space and maximize natural light with light-colored curtains. Vertical storage solutions like wall-mounted shelves save floor space. Keep the room clutter-free and consider a small fan for better air circulation if the room feels stuffy.
Research the area's safety record, future development plans, and property value trends. Check proximity to essential services like hospitals, schools, and shopping centers. Evaluate public transport connectivity and traffic patterns during peak hours. Consider the community demographics and whether the neighborhood aligns with your lifestyle preferences and long-term plans.
Clarify with your housemates or landlord how utilities are divided. Often, all occupants split electricity, water, and internet bills equally. In some cases, if one person uses significantly more (e.g., air-con all day), they might pay a bit more. It’s important to agree on a fair arrangement upfront so everyone knows their share of the monthly bills. Keep bills visible to everyone and record transfers for transparency.
Scan for groceries, eateries, clinics, and childcare nearby. Check sheltered walkways and bus stops. If you exercise outdoors, look for simple parks and fitness corners. Everyday errands become easier when essential services are within a short, comfortable stroll.
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.
Furnished units have basic furniture and appliances provided, so moving in is easy but inspect condition and note what’s included. Unfurnished units come empty, meaning you must furnish the place yourself. It’s more work upfront, but you get to decorate it your way. Consider delivery logistics, lift bookings, storage needs, and whether you’ll keep or sell items at lease end.
