FAQs
Agree which tasks are tenant responsibilities, like light bulbs and basic filters, versus landlord duties. Report issues early and follow the preferred contact channel. Keep receipts and before-after photos so reimbursements or approvals remain straightforward later.
Establish morning routines and peak usage times with housemates, keep personal items organized in designated areas, and maintain cleanliness standards. Consider having backup plans for busy mornings, and communicate openly about any issues rather than letting frustrations build up.
Measure wardrobe depth, check for full-length hanging, and look for shelves that suit daily items. Visualize bed placement, door swing, and airflow. Make sure a desk or cot fits without blocking pathways or covering sockets and switches.
Condo management committees can make decisions about facility usage, renovation rules, and additional charges that affect tenants. While you can't vote, stay informed about upcoming decisions through your landlord. Major changes like facility closures or new rules may impact your rental experience. Good landlords will communicate these changes and their implications.
Run taps and flush toilets to check water pressure (and watch for leaks). Turn on lights, fans, and air-con to ensure they work. Test any provided appliances as well. Check walls and ceilings for water stains or mold. Note any problems and have the landlord address them before move-in. Photograph any defects and attach them to the inventory to avoid end-lease disputes.
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.
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.
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.
