FAQs
Agree which tasks are tenant responsibilities, like light bulbs and basic filters, versus landlord duties. Report issues early and follow the preferred contact channel. Keep receipts and before-after photos so reimbursements or approvals remain straightforward later.
Yes, but you need to plan your space carefully. Dedicate a corner for a small desk (or a foldable wall-mounted desk)6}. Use a shelf or curtain to separate your “office” from your bed. Having that defined work zone helps you focus in a studio.
Create zones with rugs, shelving, and lighting changes. Use furniture placement to carve out separate areas. For example, a shelf or screen can divide your bed from the rest of the space. Try to group your bed, sofa, and desk separately, so sleeping, relaxing, and working each have their own corner in the room.
Prepare a list of questions about utilities, maintenance, lease terms, and neighborhood amenities. Bring a measuring tape for furniture planning and take photos/videos for later comparison. Check water pressure, electrical outlets, mobile reception, and natural light. View properties at different times if possible to assess noise levels and traffic patterns.
Typically, there's a built-in wardrobe in the bedroom and cabinets in the kitchen. Some 1-bedroom flats include a small storeroom or utility closet. Use vertical space by adding shelves in empty spots. And choose furniture with storage, like a bed with drawers or an ottoman that opens.
Deposits are security against damage and unpaid bills, usually returned after handover if conditions are met. Read the break clause carefully, including notice requirements, potential fees, and whether a replacement tenant is allowed. Keep everything documented and dated.
Request to see the landlord's NRIC and property ownership documents or tenancy agreement if they're a main tenant. Check property records through official channels if needed. Be wary of landlords who refuse to meet in person, demand cash-only payments, or pressure for immediate decisions. Legitimate landlords will provide proper documentation and allow reasonable verification time.
Research the area's safety record, future development plans, and property value trends. Check proximity to essential services like hospitals, schools, and shopping centers. Evaluate public transport connectivity and traffic patterns during peak hours. Consider the community demographics and whether the neighborhood aligns with your lifestyle preferences and long-term plans.
