FAQs
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.
3-bedroom units offer excellent flexibility for families. Start with a master bedroom, nursery, and guest room/study. As children grow, convert the study to a second child's room. The extra space allows for toy storage, play areas, and separate study zones. Consider child-proofing requirements and proximity to good schools when choosing location.
Living alone means you bear all utility costs, so efficiency matters. Use programmable thermostats for air-conditioning, switch to LED lighting, and unplug devices when not in use. Consider your usage patterns - cook in batches, do laundry efficiently, and use appliances during off-peak hours if available. Monitor your monthly bills to identify high-consumption periods and adjust habits accordingly. Some units benefit from smart home devices to optimize energy usage.
Landed houses may require additional insurance considerations due to ground-level access, gardens, and potential flooding risks. Check if your landlord's insurance covers tenant belongings and liability for accidents on the property. Consider additional coverage for valuable items and personal liability, especially if you have guests using outdoor areas or pools.
Landed houses may have multiple entry points, ground-level access, and outdoor areas requiring different security considerations. Check all locks, consider motion sensors or security systems, and understand neighborhood security patterns. Establish routines for securing the property and coordinate with neighbors if appropriate.
Common arrangements include parents' master bedroom, children's shared room, and a guest/study room. Some families give each child their own room, while others use one as a home office or playroom. Consider your family's current and future needs, including whether children will want separate rooms as they grow.
Decide what’s communal and what’s personal, then stick to it. If you borrow, return items clean and promptly. Replace consumables you finish. A quick message before taking anything avoids misunderstandings and keeps goodwill in the household.
Common deductions include excessive cleaning needs, damaged furniture or fixtures, unpaid utilities, missing keys or access cards, and alterations made without permission. Normal wear and tear should not be deducted. Take detailed photos at move-in and move-out to document the property's condition. Keep all receipts for any repairs or replacements you make.
