FAQs
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.
You’ll likely enjoy space, privacy, and potential outdoor areas. You won’t share walls or floors with neighbors, so noise is less of an issue. It suits families, pet owners, or hobbies needing storage. In return, expect more maintenance involvement. Clarify responsibilities for gardens, drains, and exterior checks before signing the agreement.
Rooms beside the living room, corridor, or kitchen feel busier. If the room's window faces a busy street or the corridor where neighbors walk by, you might also get more outside or hallway noise. Check door seals and window frames. Soft furnishings like rugs and thicker curtains can help reduce everyday noise transfer.
If you rent a common room, you’ll likely share a bathroom with one or more housemates. Agree on morning and evening peak times, cleaning duties, and storage space for toiletries. A shower caddy and labeled shelves reduce friction. Expect to compromise a little on timing and cleanliness habits, but overall, as long as everyone is considerate (cleaning hair from the drain, not hogging the bathroom for an hour), sharing a bathroom is manageable.
Master rooms typically consume more electricity due to larger space and ensuite bathroom usage. You'll likely run air-con longer, use more lighting, and the ensuite adds water heating costs. Discuss with housemates whether utility splitting accounts for room size differences or if everyone pays equally regardless of consumption.
Renting a condo unit gives you on-site amenities and added security. You’ll typically have access to facilities like a swimming pool, gym, and BBQ areas. Condos also provide a gated, secure environment (often with guards or access cards), which means more privacy and peace of mind.
Clarify responsibility for mowing, pruning, sweeping, and bin management. Agree on weed control and handling of fallen leaves after storms. If a gardener is included, confirm frequency and scope. Outdoor upkeep keeps pests down and protects your deposit.
Sharing with 3+ roommates requires clear agreements about shared spaces, cleaning schedules, utility splits, and house rules. Consider personality compatibility, lifestyle habits, and how to handle conflicts. Establish guidelines for common areas, guest policies, and what happens if someone moves out mid-lease.
