FAQs
HDB 2-bedroom units offer more space and value but fewer amenities. Condo 2-bedrooms cost more but include facilities like pools and gyms. Landed 2-bedroom units (rare) provide maximum privacy and space but highest costs. Consider your priorities: budget and space (HDB), amenities and lifestyle (condo), or privacy and outdoor space (landed).
Not typically. You’ll rely on public gyms, community clubs, and neighbourhood pools. Many tenants prefer HDBs for value and convenience to everyday shops and transport.
In a landed house, residents handle all the cleaning. Large spaces (living rooms, kitchen, stairs) mean more work, so housemates should set a chore routine or hire a cleaner together. Agreeing on who cleans what (and when) keeps the big home comfortable for everyone.
HDB estates periodically undergo upgrading works that can last months. This includes lift upgrading, facade improvements, and infrastructure updates. Renovation noise from neighbors is also common and allowed during specific hours (usually 9am-6pm on weekdays). Check if any major upgrading works are planned for your block before signing a lease.
Landed properties typically have higher utility costs due to size, multiple levels, and outdoor areas. Understand how water, electricity, and gas are metered, whether outdoor lighting or water features affect costs, and if there are separate meters for different areas. Budget accordingly for potentially significant utility expenses.
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.
A lot of 1-bedroom units have small bedrooms. A queen-size bed usually fits, but a king-size might be a tight squeeze. With a king, you might have little room left for bedside tables or a dresser. Always check the room dimensions beforehand to ensure you can still move around comfortably.
Teenagers require more privacy and independence than younger children. Consider bedroom assignments that provide adequate separation from parents and siblings, ensure good soundproofing for music and phone calls, and discuss household rules about friends visiting. Plan for increased utility usage and potential need for additional internet bandwidth or separate study spaces.
