Rental questions

[Admummy]

Hi guys, if a tenant keep failing to pay rental on time…wat are some of the avenues that the landlord can take to repossess the premise?

Anyone knows how much (current market rate) to rent out for a room in a 3-room flat? Does it include utility charges, or separate charges for utility? How to draft a standard rental contract, or where can I find a sample for such contract?


My mom is planning to rent out a room so I am helping her out. Appreciate any advices but no property agents pls.

Hi Angelight, you can refer to: http://www.hdb.gov.sg/fi10/fi10323p.nsf/w/RentOpenMktRentOutWholeFlat?OpenDocument

There's a link at the bottom for a sample tenancy agreement.

Hi everyone

Am thinking of renting a HDB flat near the school I want to target. Prob is, the school requires all PVs to live within 1km. I like to know, should I not get in as a PV, can I just give up the flat (ie. just rent for 3 months instead of fulfilling the 2yr contract)? What would this entail?

This probably depends on the contract you have? There should be a notice period, or payment of x months of rental in lieu of notice period. I think you may also need to refund the landlord the commission paid to the agent.

Hi. May I know how much is the rental amount difference if the unit rented out has no air-conditioning? Is aircon a crucial part of getting the unit rented out? Reason being the aircon is more than 10 years old and breaking down. Whether to replace if intend to rent out unit?


Thanks for any inputs.

Hi MMM


Well i think u can register them via hdb website @ http://www.hdb.gov.sg/fi10/fi10323p.nsf/w/RentOpenMktRentOutApply?OpenDocument.

U need their name, d.o.b and etc.. I also rent out one of my common room and after a year they want to extend their contract. as i contact my agent, she told me can register tenant via online. u can engage agent too, but as u know agent also charge juz for a piece of aggrement paper. Hope this help.

it depends on your location, and what you provide e.g. aircon, bed, etc.

usually for convenience, ppl include the utilities in the mthly rent. for non-aircon rooms, it can go from 400-600. air con room from 600 up.

contracts can be found by googling for it.
