Yes, even a tiny balcony is useful. You can sit outside for fresh air—place a small chair and table to create a cozy outdoor corner. Some tenants use balconies to dry laundry (if allowed) or grow a few potted plants. It's like having a little extra outdoor space for relaxation.
Renovations are common in HDB estates, so occasional daytime drilling or hacking noise is normal. Work is only allowed during set hours, but it can still be disruptive if a nearby unit is being redone. Know that it’s temporary and typically accompanied by advance notice to residents.
Condos often have specific rules about tenant behavior, pet policies, noise restrictions, and guest limitations. Some prohibit short-term rentals, have strict move-in procedures, or limit the number of occupants. Understand parking allocations, facility usage rights, and any restrictions on modifications. Violating condo rules can affect your tenancy even if your landlord approves certain activities.

Go furnished for convenience and lower upfront setup, but inspect furniture condition and note wear expectations. Choose unfurnished for flexibility and hygiene control, factoring in delivery time, storage needs, and the effort to move items at lease end. It really depends on whether you have furniture and want to customize the space or prefer a move-in-ready setup.

Compare total costs including utilities, factor in privacy benefits and not having to share common areas with housemates. Consider whether the studio's location, amenities, and independence justify potentially higher costs than a room rental. Think about your lifestyle preferences and need for personal space.
