FAQs
Address excessive utility usage diplomatically but firmly. Document patterns with photos of meter readings or bills showing spikes. Propose individual monitoring solutions like smart plugs for high-energy appliances or separate air-con timers. Consider splitting bills proportionally based on actual usage rather than equally. If direct conversation fails, involve the landlord to mediate or implement individual metering systems.
Condos have security and access controls. You’ll get a resident card or fob for gates and lifts. Visitors usually need to sign in at the guardhouse, and you might have to approve them. Know your condo’s guest procedure so friends can visit smoothly.
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.
A studio apartment is basically one open room (with a separate bathroom). It's best for a single person or a couple who don't mind a compact space. If you prefer minimal upkeep and everything in one area, a studio could suit you.
Agree on clear house rules with your flatmates early. Clarify quiet hours, overnight guests, cooking frequency, kitchen use, fridge space, and laundry timing. Discuss cleaning expectations for kitchen and bathrooms. Check rules about smoking or pets. Setting these expectations from the start helps prevent conflicts and keeps everyone comfortable.
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.
Even with more space, it’s wise to plan storage to avoid clutter. Use the built-in wardrobes in the bedrooms. If one bedroom is spare, add extra shelves or cabinets there. Use any storeroom or utility room for bulky items. Assign each type of item a spot so storage is spread out. And declutter regularly even with more room.
Most 4-bedroom units have one master bedroom with ensuite, and three smaller bedrooms sharing 1-2 additional bathrooms. Some premium units offer two master suites. Common areas typically include larger living/dining spaces and bigger kitchens to accommodate family needs. Check if bedrooms are clustered together or spread throughout the unit for privacy considerations.
