FAQs
Ask about work schedules, sleep schedules, social habits, cleanliness, and how issues are handled. If one of you is very neat and the other more casual, it could cause friction. Observe fridge organization, sink state, and bathroom tidiness during viewing. Look for someone whose daily routine and approach to shared living align well with yours. Trust your instincts – feeling comfortable with their personality is a good sign.
Yes. Many landed homes have two or three storeys, so you'll be using stairs daily. If you have young children or elderly family, consider safety (installing baby gates, sturdy handrails). Different floors give privacy with bedrooms separate from living areas, but you'll also be climbing up and down a lot.
For unit-specific issues, contact your landlord first. For common area problems or facility issues, you can report directly to condo management. Some condos have apps or online portals for maintenance requests. Understand the difference between landlord responsibilities (your unit) and management responsibilities (common areas) to report issues to the right party efficiently.
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.
North-facing units stay cooler but may have less natural light, while west-facing units get hot afternoon sun but brighter interiors. East-facing units get morning sun, and south-facing units receive consistent light throughout the day. Consider your lifestyle, air-con usage, and preference for natural light versus heat management.
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.
Landed houses often have higher utility consumption due to larger spaces and multiple floors. Air-conditioning costs can be significant with bigger rooms and common areas. Water usage may be higher with garden watering. Discuss how utilities are split among housemates and whether there are caps or guidelines for usage to avoid bill shock.
Landed properties may require different maintenance approaches for multiple levels, outdoor areas, and potentially more complex systems. Understand your responsibilities versus the landlord's, know how to access different areas safely, and establish procedures for reporting issues. Consider whether you're comfortable with the maintenance demands of a larger property.
