FAQs
Void decks host community events, celebrations, and sometimes funeral wakes that can create noise and activity. Lower floor rooms may be more affected by these activities. While these are part of HDB community life, understand the typical schedule and duration of events, and plan accordingly for noise-sensitive activities like sleep or work calls.
Know your landlord's emergency contact and preferred repair service providers. For urgent issues like water leaks or electrical problems, act quickly to prevent damage and notify your landlord immediately. Keep receipts for emergency repairs - some landlords reimburse reasonable emergency costs. Understand what constitutes an emergency versus routine maintenance that can wait.
Take advantage of amenities to justify higher rent costs. Use the gym instead of paying for external memberships, utilize the pool for exercise and relaxation, and book function rooms for gatherings. Many condos offer additional services like concierge, dry cleaning pickup, or maintenance services. Factor these conveniences into your rental value assessment.
Look for layouts where bedrooms don't directly face each other for better privacy. Check if both bedrooms have windows for natural light and ventilation. Consider whether the kitchen is open or closed to the living area - open kitchens feel spacious but cooking smells spread. Ensure there's adequate storage throughout the unit, not just in bedrooms.
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.
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.
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.
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.
