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.
Aside from rent, you cover all ongoing costs. Budget for utilities (electricity, water, gas if any) and internet each month. If the unit has air-con, plan for regular servicing. You’re also responsible for minor maintenance like replacing light bulbs or filters. Basically, all household bills and upkeep fall to you.
HDB flats open onto a common corridor. If your unit is along a corridor with neighbors walking by, you might need to keep your gates or curtains closed at times for privacy. Corner or end units offer a bit more seclusion since fewer people pass your door. When viewing a flat, notice the corridor layout – if the windows or door face a busy walkway, plan on using curtains/blinds for privacy. It’s a different feel from a private condo, but most residents get used to it.
Older HDB flats are usually more spacious but come with age. They might have older fittings and be a bit more worn, and some can get warm if they lack modern ventilation or insulation. Newer flats have updated interiors and designs, but they often trade off some space – rooms and living areas might be smaller. Think about whether you prefer the extra room of an older flat (and don’t mind a bit of old-school charm) or the fresh finish of a newer, albeit cozier, flat.
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.
Scan for groceries, eateries, clinics, and childcare nearby. Check sheltered walkways and bus stops. If you exercise outdoors, look for simple parks and fitness corners. Everyday errands become easier when essential services are within a short, comfortable stroll.
