Dear sir/madam,

Do you mean that you intend to run a co-living space on your own or do you mean that you will rent the apartment out to a co-living operator?

Not all apartments are suitable to be used for co-living space, and in terms of co-living space arrangements, you will typically require to provide periodic cleaning of the apartment, provision of internet services as well as maintenance services for air-con.

Location of the property will be key in the success factor of a co-living space, and while you may enjoy a more premium return in terms of rental, the management of different tenants can also potentially be create massive inconveniences.

I have been in the real estate business since 2009, with more than 10years of experience serving the Singapore real estate market.

I am very active in the residential segment of Singapore real estate market, having transacted hundreds of deals from HDBs to private condominiums and landed properties in Singapore, and have handled many unique cases in sales and purchases as well as rental deals.

Over the years, I have also established a network reaching out to more than 9,400 expatriates, bringing my market presence to both in and outside of Singapore. This has created an additional exposure when I manage my client's portfolios, on top of the conventional on and offline platforms, where other estate agents are relying on. This has allowed me to consistently convert leads into results.

With an evolving market, where change is the only constant, I have also been investing in upgrading of my knowledge and skills sets to improve myself and meet the demands of current and future market.

Hi

For a co-living concept of renting, there are various ways to proceed each with their own pro and cons. My opinion is that try to avoid renting your flat as co-living if possible. Although you may be able to secure a higher overall rental, you will usually attract tenants with a less professional profile. This type of tenants might not have a good history of maintaining the unit well. In addition, co-living tenants might not have the incentive to maintain the unit well as the space they are occupying is not 'exclusive'. This is couple with the fact that you might need to account for monthly utilities, wifi and aircon maintenance some that tenants will normally incur for normal tenancy. If utilities are included in the rent, tenants will not have the incentive to save on the monthly bils. If you decide to not include the utilities expenses in your rent, there will be difficulties in apportioning the charges between tenants and disputes might arise between different tenants themselves as they did not know each other well. Do contact me at 93375051  for a free and non obligatory discussions on this.
