Not Singapore though, I hear prices have gone through the roof there!  

Two feel days of each other and totally destroyed the tiled roof during a real bad storm.

I have a check-list that inspects for a series of items: soil condition and drainage (includes gutters and foundation), landscaping, roof, exterior/interior walls (especially around doors and windows), plumbing (under the sinks and toilets), flooring condition, etc. 

They are considered "sacrificial" hurricane protection because they are designed to break but remain in place to prevent pressurization of the structure's interior and subsequent roof lift-off.

For perspective this is a dump with a caved in roof and a tree growing through the middle of it.

Roof and windows are "new-ish".Only two of the units are rented now. 

Slab foundations run about 5k from a company with good prices at $185/pier in San Antonio.  4k for a roof if it needs it, 6k for HVAC inside and outside units with reducting.  

Sory it's not a brand, it's different roof and anchoring soecifications, there's wind zone 1, 2 and 3 in texas. the coast is wind zone 2

Also, if the house has a new roof, new water heater, and furnace, and/or newly painted exterior then you may be able to justify decreasing your budget for capital expenditures and repairs/maintenance.

I've been a serial renter, and have been fortunate to have good land lords (have a 200 year old oak fall on your roof at 5am, and you really learn who you are dealing with, lol) who have shared some of their insight over the years.
