FAQs
You can use a spare bedroom in many ways. It could be your home office or study, a guest room for visitors, or even a hobby room. Some people turn the extra room into a walk-in closet or extra storage. Essentially, it's bonus space you can adapt to your needs.
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.
Use light colors, mirrors, and good lighting to create an illusion of space. Choose compact, multi-functional furniture and utilize vertical storage. Keep the room uncluttered, use under-bed storage, and consider whether you can use some shared areas for activities like studying or relaxing.
Lower floors offer easier access during elevator outages and lower utility costs, but may have noise from foot traffic, security concerns, and limited views. Higher floors provide better views, less noise, and more privacy, but depend on elevators and may have higher cooling costs. Mid-level floors (3rd-8th) often balance these factors well. Consider your mobility needs, noise tolerance, and whether views matter to your daily comfort.
Condo management committees can make decisions about facility usage, renovation rules, and additional charges that affect tenants. While you can't vote, stay informed about upcoming decisions through your landlord. Major changes like facility closures or new rules may impact your rental experience. Good landlords will communicate these changes and their implications.
Save the signed agreement, inventory, payment receipts, and all maintenance chats. Store dated photos of existing defects and meter readings. Keeping a single folder prevents disputes and speeds up deposit discussions at the end.
Use multi-functional furniture and vertical space. For example, a bed with drawers underneath or shelves up high on the walls adds storage without taking floor space. Declutter regularly and use hidden storage (like ottomans or coffee tables with compartments) to keep your studio organized.
Learn the visitor registration system, understand security procedures for guests, and know the protocols for deliveries and service personnel. Some condos have strict visitor policies, time restrictions, or require advance registration. Ensure your guests understand and follow building security requirements.
