FAQs
Modern units may include smart locks, video intercoms, app-controlled air-conditioning, or smart lighting. Understand how these systems work and whether you'll have admin access. Check if these features increase your rent or utility costs, and ensure you're comfortable using the technology.
Furnished units have basic furniture and appliances provided, so moving in is easy but inspect condition and note what’s included. Unfurnished units come empty, meaning you must furnish the place yourself. It’s more work upfront, but you get to decorate it your way. Consider delivery logistics, lift bookings, storage needs, and whether you’ll keep or sell items at lease end.
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.
Families need significant storage for clothing, toys, school supplies, and household items. Look for built-in wardrobes in each bedroom, linen closets, kitchen storage, and utility areas. Check if there's a storeroom, under-stair storage, or if you can add storage furniture without overcrowding the space.
Research comparable listings to understand market rates before negotiating. Be prepared to make quick decisions as good properties move fast. Consider offering longer lease terms for rent discounts, or ask for inclusions like utilities or internet. Present yourself as a reliable tenant with references and proof of income. Avoid lowball offers that might offend landlords.
Studio entertaining requires creativity due to limited space. Use folding furniture and multi-purpose items to accommodate guests. Consider the noise impact on neighbors in compact buildings. Overnight guests will need to sleep in your main living space, which affects your privacy. Plan gatherings during times when space can be reconfigured for socializing.
Ask whether pets are allowed, any size or breed restrictions, and cleaning expectations before move out. Disclose allergies or sensitivities early. If you need small modifications, like childproof latches, get written consent and agree on reinstatement responsibilities.
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.
