FAQs
North-facing units stay cooler but may have less natural light, while west-facing units get hot afternoon sun but brighter interiors. East-facing units get morning sun, and south-facing units receive consistent light throughout the day. Consider your lifestyle, air-con usage, and preference for natural light versus heat management.
Make sure all friends are named on the lease so everyone is equally responsible. Agree clearly on how to split rent and bills, and set basic house rules early on to avoid misunderstandings. Also decide what happens if someone moves out before the lease ends, since you’re all responsible together.
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.
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.
Landed houses may require additional insurance considerations due to ground-level access, gardens, and potential flooding risks. Check if your landlord's insurance covers tenant belongings and liability for accidents on the property. Consider additional coverage for valuable items and personal liability, especially if you have guests using outdoor areas or pools.
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.
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.
Yes, condo facilities often have rules and booking systems. For example, certain amenities like the BBQ pit or function room must be reserved with management in advance. These facilities also have specific rules like fixed time limits and cleanup requirements. Meanwhile, the pool or gym generally don’t require booking, but they have set hours and basic usage guidelines.
