FAQs
Condo deliveries are usually held by security when you’re out. Couriers drop packages at the guardhouse or concierge instead of outside your door. You’ll be notified when something arrives so you can collect it. This keeps parcels secure, but you will need to pick them up from the guard post.
Check the agreement for notice and replacement terms. Align on advertising, viewings, and how utilities are split during the gap. Keep shared costs transparent so no one subsidizes unfairly. Get approvals in writing before a new person joins.
While you're renting, understanding condo market trends can help predict rent stability and landlord behavior. Properties in high-demand areas with good resale prospects typically have more stable rents and better maintenance. However, rapidly appreciating properties may face higher rent increases at renewal. Consider the development's age, location, and market reputation when evaluating long-term rental viability.
Generally, yes. Landed homes are often in quieter residential areas, so public transport might be a longer walk away. If you don’t drive, check how close the nearest bus stop or MRT is. You’re gaining a quiet environment but giving up some convenience of easy transport access.
You can use a spare bedroom in many ways. It could be your home office or study, a guest room for visitors, or even a hobby room. Some people turn the extra room into a walk-in closet or extra storage. Essentially, it's bonus space you can adapt to your needs.
Check that the kitchen has adequate ventilation to prevent cooking smells from overwhelming the living space. Ensure sufficient counter space for meal prep and storage for kitchen essentials. Look for a proper range hood and consider the proximity to your sleeping area. Some studios have kitchenettes with limited cooking capabilities - confirm this meets your culinary needs.
1-bedroom units offer better work-life separation than studios with a dedicated bedroom for sleep and living area for work. You can have video calls without showing your bed, and maintain professional backgrounds. However, the limited space means you'll need efficient furniture and good organization. Consider noise levels from neighbors and ensure good internet connectivity for reliable remote work.
Establish clear common area rules and assign personal storage spaces in each bedroom. Use the third bedroom strategically - as a study, guest room, or helper's quarters. Create a household schedule for shared spaces like bathrooms and kitchen. Consider installing additional hooks and organizers in common areas to prevent clutter.
