FAQs
Look for termite trails, droppings, and swollen wood. Check ceilings and corners for water stains and bubbling paint. Outside, inspect gutters and downpipes after rain. Ask about previous treatments and how quickly issues are handled when reported.
Landlords typically have property insurance, but this doesn't cover your personal belongings. Consider renter's insurance for your possessions and personal liability. Some policies cover temporary accommodation if the unit becomes uninhabitable. Check if your landlord requires you to have insurance and understand what's covered under their policy versus what you need to protect yourself.
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.
Discuss overnight stays, notice needed, and how often guests visit. Align on using shared spaces when visitors are around, noise after hours, and shared bathroom etiquette. Written guidelines avoid misunderstandings and help everyone host without tension.
Landed houses often have helper's quarters or space for live-in domestic help. Clarify with your landlord whether you can employ helpers, if there are designated helper areas, and what additional costs or responsibilities this entails. Understand helper accommodation standards, work permit requirements, and whether helper facilities like separate bathrooms or kitchens are included in your rental.
Multi-story landed houses can have complex privacy dynamics with bedrooms on different levels. Consider noise transmission between floors, whether your room has direct access or requires passing through common areas, and how bathroom sharing works across floors. Upper floor rooms may offer more privacy but require consideration of stairs and emergency access.
Use multi-functional furniture like storage beds, extendable dining tables, and wall-mounted desks. Create defined zones with room dividers or furniture placement. Utilize vertical storage, under-stair spaces, and consider whether the living area can double as a workspace or guest room when needed.
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.
