FAQs
Look for layouts where bedrooms don't directly face each other for better privacy. Check if both bedrooms have windows for natural light and ventilation. Consider whether the kitchen is open or closed to the living area - open kitchens feel spacious but cooking smells spread. Ensure there's adequate storage throughout the unit, not just in bedrooms.
Short stays exist but many landlords prefer 12‑month leases. If you need flexibility, ask about minimum term, extension options, and early termination fees before you pay a deposit.
For two roommates, equal-sized bedrooms (and ideally two bathrooms) are preferable. For a small family, a larger master and a smaller second bedroom (for a child or study) works fine. So it depends: roommates usually want a balanced layout, while families can manage with one bigger and one smaller room.
Landed houses may require more frequent maintenance like roof repairs, plumbing work, or garden care that can disrupt daily routines. Understand notification procedures for maintenance work, temporary access restrictions, and how repairs might affect your room's utilities or accessibility. Plan accordingly for potentially longer disruption periods.
Know your landlord's emergency contact and preferred repair service providers. For urgent issues like water leaks or electrical problems, act quickly to prevent damage and notify your landlord immediately. Keep receipts for emergency repairs - some landlords reimburse reasonable emergency costs. Understand what constitutes an emergency versus routine maintenance that can wait.
Check for window safety features, electrical outlet covers, sharp corners on built-in furniture, and secure balcony railings. Look for adequate lighting, non-slip flooring in bathrooms, and whether the layout allows parents to supervise children easily. Consider proximity to playgrounds and family amenities.
Look for units where bedrooms are well-separated, preferably not all clustered together. Check sound insulation between rooms, whether there are multiple bathroom facilities, and if common areas allow for both social interaction and private space. Consider the unit's layout for natural privacy zones.
Ventilation and sunlight can make a small room feel more comfortable and livable. Natural light makes the space feel more open and pleasant, and it can even improve your mood. See if it has a window that opens to outdoors (and not just into a corridor or airwell). Good ventilation and light are key for your daily comfort in that space.
