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.
Expect practical living with access to eateries, clinics, and everyday services nearby. Community spaces encourage casual interaction. Focus on block cleanliness, lift reliability, and nearby shops. Daily errands are usually straightforward without needing long travel or planning.
Look for sun exposure, corridor traffic, and window seals. Older blocks may show wear, so check for water stains, spalling, and musty smells. Test airflow with windows open and closed to understand heat buildup and ventilation effectiveness.
Agree on clear house rules with your flatmates early. Clarify quiet hours, overnight guests, cooking frequency, kitchen use, fridge space, and laundry timing. Discuss cleaning expectations for kitchen and bathrooms. Check rules about smoking or pets. Setting these expectations from the start helps prevent conflicts and keeps everyone comfortable.
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.
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.
