FAQs
Yes, even a tiny balcony is useful. You can sit outside for fresh air—place a small chair and table to create a cozy outdoor corner. Some tenants use balconies to dry laundry (if allowed) or grow a few potted plants. It's like having a little extra outdoor space for relaxation.
Furnishing a 4-bedroom requires more furniture (beds, sofas, tables, etc.), so budget and plan accordingly. You can furnish gradually room by room. Cleaning is also a bigger job – more floor space, more bathrooms, more surfaces to wipe. Expect to spend extra time on chores or consider hiring help. It's wise to clean in zones (a room or area each day) so it's manageable.
Use light colors, mirrors, and good lighting to create an illusion of space. Choose compact, multi-functional furniture and utilize vertical storage. Keep the room uncluttered, use under-bed storage, and consider whether you can use some shared areas for activities like studying or relaxing.
Common deductions include excessive cleaning needs, damaged furniture or fixtures, unpaid utilities, missing keys or access cards, and alterations made without permission. Normal wear and tear should not be deducted. Take detailed photos at move-in and move-out to document the property's condition. Keep all receipts for any repairs or replacements you make.
Master rooms offer more privacy for hosting but require coordination with housemates about guest policies. Clarify overnight guest limits, shared area usage when you have visitors, and whether guests can use common facilities. Be considerate about noise levels and bathroom queue times when hosting. Your ensuite provides privacy but ensure guests understand house rules and respect other tenants' space.
Condos regularly schedule maintenance for elevators, water systems, and facilities that can disrupt daily routines. Stay informed through building notices, plan alternative routes during elevator maintenance, and keep backup water supplies during plumbing work. Communicate with your landlord about any major disruptions that affect your room's habitability or access.
Living alone can be isolating, so actively build social connections through neighborhood activities, building events, co-working spaces, or hobby groups. Consider inviting colleagues or friends over regularly, join community centers or sports clubs nearby, and maintain regular contact with family and friends. Balance the privacy benefits of solo living with intentional social engagement.
Corner units typically offer better ventilation, more natural light, additional windows, and sometimes larger layouts. They may also have less shared walls with neighbors, providing more privacy. However, they might be more expensive and could be noisier if facing main roads or having more external exposure.
