FAQs
HDB living means thinner walls, so noise travels easily between units and rooms. Be considerate with music, phone calls, and movement during quiet hours. Cooking smells can also spread quickly - use exhaust fans and keep doors closed when cooking strong-smelling food. The close-knit community feel means neighbors often know each other, which can be comforting but also means less anonymity.
Look for layouts where bedrooms don't directly face each other for better privacy. Check if both bedrooms have windows for natural light and ventilation. Consider whether the kitchen is open or closed to the living area - open kitchens feel spacious but cooking smells spread. Ensure there's adequate storage throughout the unit, not just in bedrooms.
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.
Common arrangements include parents' master bedroom, children's shared room, and a guest/study room. Some families give each child their own room, while others use one as a home office or playroom. Consider your family's current and future needs, including whether children will want separate rooms as they grow.
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.
Many require a booked timeslot for lift padding and may collect a refundable deposit. Confirm required forms, booking windows, and whether your landlord handles them. Plan deliveries to match the approved window so movers aren’t turned away unexpectedly.
Some noise might travel, yes. If the two bedrooms share a wall, you may hear talking or TV from the other room. Layouts that put bedrooms on opposite sides of the living room help. Also, newer buildings often have thicker walls.
Pros include spacious living, private outdoor space, parking, and quiet neighborhoods. Cons include higher costs, longer commutes to city centers, more maintenance responsibilities, and potentially fewer international amenities nearby. Consider proximity to international schools, expat communities, and whether the space justifies the premium over condos with more services.
