| 1) Clarify responsibility | Agent vs landlord vs building management | Payment हमेशा written agreement में named payee को करें; ‘assistant/friend’ account avoid करें। |
| 2) Offer से पहले key terms लिखें | Lease term, start date, inclusions, rules, repairs, aircon, break clause | Non-negotiables early: address-use, cooking, visitors, remote work. |
| 3) LOI (अगर use हो) तो ‘rules + deadlines’ clear करें | आपका commitment किस चीज़ के बदले है | Expiry date, TA signing deadline, refund/offset rules, और mandatory clauses लिखें। |
| 4) Tenancy Agreement (TA) sign करने से पहले clause-check | Final truth written TA है | Deposit/deductions evidence, break clause, repairs split, cleaning standard, inventory appendix check करें। |
| 5) Stamp duty (अगर applicable) + proof save | Stamp duty rules IRAS से verify करें | Official workflow follow करें और receipt/reference number रखें। |
| 6) Move-in handover: inventory + condition record | Move-out disputes कम करने का best तरीका | Dated photos/video, meter readings, keys/access cards count लिखें। |
| 7) Monthly payment + support channel fix करें | Late payment और repair confusion avoid | Reminders set करें; transfer proofs/receipts रखें; repairs के लिए एक written channel use करें। |
