FAQs
A common bedroom (smaller room without attached bath) is usually a fit for single renters who want a more budget-friendly option. You’ll trade privacy for affordability, so focus on good housemate fit, clear rules, and a layout that gives you a calm place to unwind.
Some noise might travel, yes. If the two bedrooms share a wall, you may hear talking or TV from the other room. Layouts that put bedrooms on opposite sides of the living room help. Also, newer buildings often have thicker walls.
Research current market rates for similar properties to understand if the increase is reasonable. Highlight your positive tenancy record, prompt payments, and property care. Consider negotiating longer lease terms for rate stability, or propose smaller incremental increases. If the increase is excessive, be prepared to explore alternative housing options while maintaining a professional relationship.
Ask about air-con use and costs. Many HDB owners let you run it at night but expect you to share the electricity bill or servicing costs. Check that the air-con unit is working well. If it's older, it might be noisier or less efficient.
2-bedroom units typically cost 60-80% more than 1-bedroom units, but when shared between two people, can be more economical per person than individual studios. Factor in additional costs like higher utility bills with more space to cool and light. Consider whether the extra space and privacy justify the higher cost for your lifestyle and budget.
Master rooms cost more because they’re typically the largest room and come with an attached bathroom. You’re paying a premium for the extra space, privacy, and convenience. They may also get better wardrobes, windows, and layout. Premiums vary by location, building type, and whether utilities are included.
Clarify which accounts must be in your name and how meter readings are recorded at handover. Photograph readings and sockets you’ll use heavily. Schedule installation visits early so internet and power changes don’t disrupt your first week routines.
Studios are energy-efficient to cool with one air-con unit covering the entire space. However, cooking heat and humidity affect the whole living area immediately. Good ventilation becomes crucial - ensure windows open for cross-ventilation and the kitchen has effective exhaust. Consider the orientation and whether the unit gets direct sunlight, which can make small spaces uncomfortably warm.
