"A rental home in Toa Payoh, Singapore, has attracted attention for its strict and unusual rules set by the landlord. Property agent Arun Kumar posted a TikTok video advertising a room for rent in the unit, which is located along Toa Payoh Lorong 5. However, the listing included a number of restrictions, such as having to clean the house for the landlord, not being allowed to cook, and only being able to wash clothes once a month. Additionally, the use of the air conditioner and utilities are also chargeable.
Despite the high price and strict rules, the room was taken up within a day of advertising. Arun said that 18 groups of potential tenants came to view the unit and that he even received offers above the asking price. The room was let out to two female coworkers who had no issues with the regulations. Arun said that he sometimes advises landlords to put down certain rules before letting rooms out to tenants in order to avoid conflicts down the line."
