Frequently Asked Questions

Typically, our team completes a standard lease agreement review within 3 to 5 business days, depending on document complexity and the volume of clauses to examine.

At FlatAdvisor, we provide a thorough review of your tenancy agreement to identify clauses that may expose you to unnecessary risk. Our legal advisors will explain each provision in clear terms and suggest amendments or additional safeguards where appropriate, ensuring your lease aligns with current Singapore regulations.

In Singapore, tenants are protected by statutes such as the Residential Tenancies Act and related regulations. You have the right to a habitable living environment, timely maintenance, and fair treatment by landlords. If any clause in your agreement conflicts with statutory protections, we can advise you on how to address it.

Subletting typically requires explicit landlord consent as stated in most tenancy agreements. If approval is withheld, we can review the contract terms and advise on negotiation strategies or alternative arrangements to seek permission without breaching your lease.

Document all repair requests and communicate in writing. Singapore law obliges landlords to maintain the property in good condition. If disputes arise, our team can assist with formal notices, mediation or escalate to the Small Claims Tribunals as needed.

Early termination clauses vary by contract. We review notice periods, break fees and potential liabilities, then guide you through formal notice drafting and negotiation with your landlord to minimize any or legal exposure.

Mediation offers a structured and cost-effective forum for landlords and tenants to reach a voluntary agreement with a neutral facilitator. We prepare your case, advise on realistic solutions and can represent you in recognized mediation centers.
