FAQs
Multi-story landed houses can have complex privacy dynamics with bedrooms on different levels. Consider noise transmission between floors, whether your room has direct access or requires passing through common areas, and how bathroom sharing works across floors. Upper floor rooms may offer more privacy but require consideration of stairs and emergency access.
Ground floor units offer easy access without lift dependency, convenient for moving furniture or groceries, and potential for small gardens or patios. However, they may have less privacy, more noise from foot traffic, and security concerns. High floor units provide better views, more privacy, less noise, and better ventilation, but depend on lift access and may be less convenient for daily errands.
Condos usually have special move-in procedures. Expect lift bookings with protective padding and refundable deposits. Paperwork may include forms and ID copies. Schedule deliveries within approved windows and keep receipts. Planning this early avoids movers waiting downstairs while approvals are sorted last minute.
Address cleanliness issues diplomatically by establishing clear cleaning schedules and standards upfront. Document problems with photos if needed, and discuss solutions rather than blame. Consider implementing a cleaning roster, shared cleaning supplies fund, or hiring occasional deep cleaning. If issues persist, involve the landlord or main tenant as mediator. Sometimes different cultural or personal standards require compromise and clear communication.
Landed houses often have higher utility consumption due to larger spaces and multiple floors. Air-conditioning costs can be significant with bigger rooms and common areas. Water usage may be higher with garden watering. Discuss how utilities are split among housemates and whether there are caps or guidelines for usage to avoid bill shock.
Landed properties may require different maintenance approaches for multiple levels, outdoor areas, and potentially more complex systems. Understand your responsibilities versus the landlord's, know how to access different areas safely, and establish procedures for reporting issues. Consider whether you're comfortable with the maintenance demands of a larger property.
Lower floors offer easier access during elevator outages and lower utility costs, but may have noise from foot traffic, security concerns, and limited views. Higher floors provide better views, less noise, and more privacy, but depend on elevators and may have higher cooling costs. Mid-level floors (3rd-8th) often balance these factors well. Consider your mobility needs, noise tolerance, and whether views matter to your daily comfort.
A lot of 1-bedroom units have small bedrooms. A queen-size bed usually fits, but a king-size might be a tight squeeze. With a king, you might have little room left for bedside tables or a dresser. Always check the room dimensions beforehand to ensure you can still move around comfortably.
