FAQs
Yes – condos strictly limit renovation noise to certain hours. Loud work (like drilling) is only allowed on weekday daytimes (no noisy construction at night or on Sundays). Any repairs or renovation you plan must also be scheduled within the allowed daytime hours.
Report common area issues like lift problems, lighting, or pest control to the town council. For unit-specific issues, coordinate with your landlord first. Understand which maintenance falls under town council responsibility versus landlord/tenant responsibility. Keep town council contact information handy for emergencies.
HDB flats open onto a common corridor. If your unit is along a corridor with neighbors walking by, you might need to keep your gates or curtains closed at times for privacy. Corner or end units offer a bit more seclusion since fewer people pass your door. When viewing a flat, notice the corridor layout – if the windows or door face a busy walkway, plan on using curtains/blinds for privacy. It’s a different feel from a private condo, but most residents get used to it.
Run the shower and taps to test water pressure and hot water – make sure it heats up and flows well. Flush the toilet to ensure it works properly. Look around for any signs of leaks or mold (check under the sink and around the edges of the shower). See if there’s a ventilation fan or window, because you’ll want moisture to escape to prevent mildew.
Landed houses offer more space but lack condo facilities. You’ll likely get a bigger room and maybe a garden or yard to enjoy. However, you won’t have amenities like a pool or gym on-site. It’s a balance: more personal space and privacy in exchange for not having shared facilities.
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.
Check the agreement for notice and replacement terms. Align on advertising, viewings, and how utilities are split during the gap. Keep shared costs transparent so no one subsidizes unfairly. Get approvals in writing before a new person joins.
Check all door and window seals, clear gutters and drains, and ensure proper drainage around the house. Test sump pumps if present and know where water shut-offs are located. Prepare sandbags or flood barriers if the area is prone to flooding. Trim overhanging branches that could fall during storms and secure outdoor furniture.
