Condos often run entirely on electricity (no city gas), so heavy air-con or hot water use can push up the power bill. Expect to split utilities—electricity, water, internet—with housemates. Clarify your share and which bills are included in your rent to avoid surprises.

Condos have by-laws residents must follow. Common rules cover noise (quiet hours), visitor sign-ins, proper garbage disposal, and use of shared facilities. Ask your landlord about any specific condo rules. Abiding by them will keep you out of trouble with management and neighbors.

Stand in the room you’ll use most and make a call, send a video message, and try streaming. Check signal bars near windows and inside bedrooms. Ask which providers serve the building and confirm cabling points and router placement options.

Deposits are security against damage and unpaid bills, usually returned after handover if conditions are met. Read the break clause carefully, including notice requirements, potential fees, and whether a replacement tenant is allowed. Keep everything documented and dated.

Look for persistent damp smells, water stains, mold, warped wood, peeling paint, pest traces, and poor ventilation. Test taps, appliances, windows, and locks. If something seems off or the landlord avoids answering questions, consider it a red flag.

You need to plan beyond just monthly rent. Budget for your security deposit, utility bills (electricity, water, gas), internet, and any regular maintenance or air-con servicing costs. Also factor in moving expenses and possible agent fees.
