FAQs
Make sure all friends are named on the lease so everyone is equally responsible. Agree clearly on how to split rent and bills, and set basic house rules early on to avoid misunderstandings. Also decide what happens if someone moves out before the lease ends, since you’re all responsible together.
Many 3-bedroom units include a small service yard or utility area near the kitchen for laundry. It’s basically space for a washing machine and to hang clothes. Not all layouts have this, so check the floor plan. If a listing mentions a 'yard' or utility room, that usually means there’s a dedicated laundry area.
Renting a condo unit gives you on-site amenities and added security. You’ll typically have access to facilities like a swimming pool, gym, and BBQ areas. Condos also provide a gated, secure environment (often with guards or access cards), which means more privacy and peace of mind.
Sharing with 3+ roommates requires clear agreements about shared spaces, cleaning schedules, utility splits, and house rules. Consider personality compatibility, lifestyle habits, and how to handle conflicts. Establish guidelines for common areas, guest policies, and what happens if someone moves out mid-lease.
Condo deliveries usually go through security. If you're not home, couriers often leave parcels at the guardhouse or management office for you to collect later. Some condos will call you or have lockers for packages. Find out your condo's parcel procedure so you don't miss any packages.
Yes, definitely. With four bedrooms, you probably have a spare room that can become an office or hobby space. It’s common to turn the extra room into a study, art studio, home gym, etc. You don’t have to use all bedrooms for sleeping. Furnish that room for its purpose (desk, shelves, workout gear, etc.). If needs change, you can turn it back into a bedroom, but it’s great to have that flexibility.
Ask whether pets are allowed, any size or breed restrictions, and cleaning expectations before move out. Disclose allergies or sensitivities early. If you need small modifications, like childproof latches, get written consent and agree on reinstatement responsibilities.
Short-term rentals (6 months or less) offer flexibility for uncertain situations but typically cost 10-20% more per month and provide less stability. Long-term leases (1-2 years) usually offer better rates, priority during renewals, and stable housing, but limit your ability to relocate quickly. Consider your career stability, relationship status, and life plans. Many landlords prefer long-term tenants and may offer incentives like rent freezes or minor upgrades.
