FAQs
Landed properties typically have higher utility costs due to size, multiple levels, and outdoor areas. Understand how water, electricity, and gas are metered, whether outdoor lighting or water features affect costs, and if there are separate meters for different areas. Budget accordingly for potentially significant utility expenses.
Landed homes lack the security of condos, so you need to be mindful. Always lock doors, windows, and the gate. If you’re on the ground floor, ensure your window has a grille or strong lock. Some houses have alarms or cameras, but day-to-day safety relies on you being vigilant.
HDB estates periodically undergo upgrading works that can last months. This includes lift upgrading, facade improvements, and infrastructure updates. Renovation noise from neighbors is also common and allowed during specific hours (usually 9am-6pm on weekdays). Check if any major upgrading works are planned for your block before signing a lease.
Yes. Many landed homes have two or three storeys, so you'll be using stairs daily. If you have young children or elderly family, consider safety (installing baby gates, sturdy handrails). Different floors give privacy with bedrooms separate from living areas, but you'll also be climbing up and down a lot.
Make sure all friends are named on the lease so everyone is equally responsible. Agree clearly on how to split rent and bills, and set basic house rules early on to avoid misunderstandings. Also decide what happens if someone moves out before the lease ends, since you’re all responsible together.
Having a private attached bathroom is convenient – no sharing with others. You can use it anytime without waiting. However, you’ll be responsible for keeping it clean (there’s no one else using it). Check that the ensuite has good ventilation or a fan, since moisture can build up. Ensure the drainage slope, water pressure and hot water in the shower are good when you inspect. Overall, an ensuite adds comfort and privacy, but comes with the task of sole upkeep.
Research comparable listings to understand market rates before negotiating. Be prepared to make quick decisions as good properties move fast. Consider offering longer lease terms for rent discounts, or ask for inclusions like utilities or internet. Present yourself as a reliable tenant with references and proof of income. Avoid lowball offers that might offend landlords.
Older HDB flats have a rubbish chute inside – make sure its lid seals well to keep out odours and pests. Newer flats use a shared chute on each floor. If your flat is near that chute, you might catch an occasional smell, but it’s usually minor if kept clean.
