FAQs
A studio apartment is basically one open room (with a separate bathroom). It's best for a single person or a couple who don't mind a compact space. If you prefer minimal upkeep and everything in one area, a studio could suit you.
Landed houses usually offer better parking options than condos or HDBs. Check if parking is included in rent and how many cars are allowed. Some have covered parking or car ports. Confirm access hours if there are automatic gates, and ask about visitor parking arrangements. Street parking rules vary by area, so understand local regulations.
Many 3-bedroom units include a small service yard or utility area near the kitchen for laundry. It’s basically space for a washing machine and to hang clothes. Not all layouts have this, so check the floor plan. If a listing mentions a 'yard' or utility room, that usually means there’s a dedicated laundry area.
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.
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.
Short stays exist but many landlords prefer 12‑month leases. If you need flexibility, ask about minimum term, extension options, and early termination fees before you pay a deposit.
Yes, many couples rent master rooms. If you’re a couple, confirm with the landlord that two people are allowed in that room (most masters are fine for couples, but some landlords set limits). Consider that as a couple, you’ll likely use more utilities – discuss with your housemates or landlord how the utility split is handled for two people. Also, ensure the master room has enough space and storage for both of your belongings. Privacy-wise, a master is great since you have your own bathroom and more space, which suits a couple’s needs. Just be open about being a pair so everyone in the household is aware and okay with it.
Establish morning routines and peak usage times with housemates, keep personal items organized in designated areas, and maintain cleanliness standards. Consider having backup plans for busy mornings, and communicate openly about any issues rather than letting frustrations build up.
