FAQs
Void decks host community events, celebrations, and sometimes funeral wakes that can create noise and activity. Lower floor rooms may be more affected by these activities. While these are part of HDB community life, understand the typical schedule and duration of events, and plan accordingly for noise-sensitive activities like sleep or work calls.
Confirm whether you’ll park on a driveway or street and how visitors should park. Test gate mechanisms and night lighting. If you own bicycles or scooters, ensure secure storage and a practical route without lifting heavy equipment up stairs.
Air-con significantly impacts electricity bills in Singapore's climate. Discuss usage patterns with housemates - some prefer it only at night, others need it during work-from-home hours. Agree on temperature settings (24-26°C is efficient) and whether common areas should be cooled. Consider individual room usage tracking or splitting bills proportionally based on usage patterns.
Many require a booked timeslot for lift padding and may collect a refundable deposit. Confirm required forms, booking windows, and whether your landlord handles them. Plan deliveries to match the approved window so movers aren’t turned away unexpectedly.
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.
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.
A lot of 1-bedroom units have small bedrooms. A queen-size bed usually fits, but a king-size might be a tight squeeze. With a king, you might have little room left for bedside tables or a dresser. Always check the room dimensions beforehand to ensure you can still move around comfortably.
Rental demand typically peaks during university intake periods (July-August and January) and expat relocation seasons (June-August and December-January). Prices may be higher during these periods. Consider timing your search during off-peak months for better deals and more negotiating power. Chinese New Year period often sees reduced activity.
