Hi everybody
I am now negotiating the tenancy terms and conditions.
The condo is partially furnished, the landlord agreed to give more furniture if we increase 500$/month. We have no objection to this. let say we have to give 12,000$ more for 2 year rent.
The furniture to be provided more is:
- 4 beds + mattress
- sofa + coffee table
- 1 desk
- dining set
1/ However, there is only 1 TV for 4 bedroom, no dish-waher, no smoke detectors, fire extinguishers are provided. Is it practical here, that the TV, dishwasher, smoke detectors....are provided by the Landlord?
Or it will be accounted to our extra 12,000 budget?
I wonder why in such high rise buildings, there are no smoke detectors and fire extinguishers provided?
2/ After 2 year when tenancy terminated, the extra furniture will be given to the landlord benefit, but there is still the terms biding us of compensation for damage (if any) (except normal wear and tear).
Of course, we will try to keep everything in order, but I wonder the furniture is bought by our extra money, but we still have to pay for damage if any.
Please advise if it is normal practice in Singapore?
3/ Aircon maintenance: Is it practical here that the tenant must sign a aircon maintenance service contract for the landlord? I just want to know, if it's a practice here in Singapore, then we have no objection.
Please kindly advise. Many thanks
