FAQs
Renting a whole unit suits those who value privacy and space. It’s ideal for families, couples, or a group of friends who want the whole place to themselves. You can use and arrange the home as you wish, but you also shoulder full responsibility for rent, bills, and maintenance.
Check window seals and drainage before rainy season starts. Ensure you have adequate ventilation to prevent mold in humid conditions. Stock up on dehumidifiers or moisture absorbers. Know how to operate all fans and air-con units efficiently. Test that umbrellas and rain gear are accessible, and understand evacuation procedures if your area is flood-prone.
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.
Create a dedicated workspace even if it's just a corner with a desk. Use visual cues like different lighting or a room divider to separate work time from personal time. Establish routines that help you mentally 'leave work' even when you can't physically leave the space.
HDB estates often have nearby markets, food courts, clinics, schools, and community centers. Many have playgrounds, fitness corners, and resident committee activities. Check proximity to essential services, public transport, and whether the estate has active community programs that might interest you.
Yes. Check that there’s an aircon in each bedroom and the living room. Make sure they all work. Also note the number of power outlets in each room. Some older flats have few sockets, so ensure there’s one where you plan to put your TV or computer. If not, you’ll need extension cords. Knowing this upfront helps you plan.
HDB rooms often have simpler finishes and fewer shared facilities but practical layouts and solid walls. You’ll trade pools or gyms for straightforward convenience. Prioritize block condition, elevator access, and nearby amenities over lifestyle facilities you won’t use.
Yes, a larger space usually means higher utility costs. In a 4-bedroom, you may run four or more aircon units plus more lights and devices, which adds up. More people/rooms also likely means more water usage. So expect to pay higher electricity and water bills than in a smaller unit. To manage costs, use AC and lights only when needed and choose energy-efficient appliances.
