FAQs
Use the additional space for a work area, reading nook, or exercise space. Consider whether you need all the space for bedroom functions or can create multiple zones. The extra room allows for larger furniture pieces, more storage, or simply a less cramped living environment.
Common rooms near front doors or main corridors may have security considerations. Ensure your room has a good lock and consider a door chain. Keep valuables secured and curtains closed for privacy. Check if the main door has proper security features. Some tenants install small safes or use lockable storage boxes for important documents and valuables.
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.
Ask about air-con use and costs. Many HDB owners let you run it at night but expect you to share the electricity bill or servicing costs. Check that the air-con unit is working well. If it's older, it might be noisier or less efficient.
HDB flats open onto a common corridor. If your unit is along a corridor with neighbors walking by, you might need to keep your gates or curtains closed at times for privacy. Corner or end units offer a bit more seclusion since fewer people pass your door. When viewing a flat, notice the corridor layout – if the windows or door face a busy walkway, plan on using curtains/blinds for privacy. It’s a different feel from a private condo, but most residents get used to it.
Set polite boundaries. Keep your door closed or locked when you need personal space or quiet. Communicate with housemates about quiet hours (for example, agree on lowering noise after a certain time at night). Use headphones if you’re watching movies or listening to music late. Respecting each other’s schedules and discussing noise or privacy concerns openly will help everyone coexist comfortably.
Use room dividers, curtains, or tall furniture to create visual separation between sleeping, working, and living areas. Strategic lighting can create intimate spaces within the open plan. Consider a murphy bed or loft bed to maximize floor space during the day. Establish routines that give you psychological separation between work and rest time.
Landed houses often have helper's quarters or space for live-in domestic help. Clarify with your landlord whether you can employ helpers, if there are designated helper areas, and what additional costs or responsibilities this entails. Understand helper accommodation standards, work permit requirements, and whether helper facilities like separate bathrooms or kitchens are included in your rental.
