How to read these figures
Medians describe the transactions in this view, not a valuation or a change in every home’s value. Middle 50% is the 25th–75th percentile, shown only with at least five observations; smaller groups are flagged. Minima and maxima are available in the breakdown tables. Percentiles use linear interpolation.
Price and PSF statistics include only sales explicitly recorded as one unit. Bulk sales and records with an unknown unit count remain in the detailed table when All unit sizes is selected. PSF uses unrounded strata area; size bands use rounded square feet. A size band does not identify bedrooms, penthouses, layout or unit condition.
Rental bedrooms are as reported; missing or non-numeric values are Not stated. Rental sizes are ranges. Rents and sales are separate samples: no project yield or exact rental PSF is inferred.

Test your assumptions
Rental yield calculator
Enter a purchase price and monthly rent for the same home. Results update as you type. Your assumptions stay in this page while you change transaction filters; they are not submitted or saved.
Rental reference in the selected view: median S$3,200 / month from 1 contracts (limited sample). These contracts may cover different-sized homes. Check the bedroom breakdown and records before choosing your rent assumption.
Optional vacancy and running expenses
Blank expense fields count as zero. Enter annual costs for the full year; they are not reduced during vacancy.
Enter purchase price and monthly rent to calculate.
Annual income after entered expenses = monthly rent × (12 − vacant months) − monthly maintenance × 12 − annual property tax − other annual running costs. Yield after entered expenses divides that income by purchase price.
Results use your assumptions and are indicative, before financing and personal income tax. The denominator excludes stamp duties, legal fees, renovation, furnishing and other acquisition costs. Include recurring insurance, repairs and letting costs in other running costs where relevant. No appreciation, mortgage repayment or return on equity is calculated. Historical rental contracts do not guarantee future rent or occupancy.

Calculating walking route…
List distances are straight-line estimates. Walking routes start at the named gate and exclude walking within the development or indoors. Mapped shop and food-centre points may differ from entrances. Park walks use a map reference point unless an entrance has been reviewed. Check access restrictions, opening hours and temporary closures; routes do not confirm sheltered or step-free access. Public transport estimates include buses and MRT/LRT, use current services and include walking and waiting; they are not live bus arrivals. Walking sections are dashed, bus routes are blue and rail routes are purple. School distances are not for P1 admission. Lists and source coverage may be incomplete.
Selected schools use reviewed campus and entrance records shared across this website. Source: MOE via data.gov.sg and OneMap, supplemented where needed by official school website addresses. School entrances may be for school users or authorised visitors only; check the selected entrance’s access note.
Primary 1 admission: Gate-to-point and walking distances do not determine the official home-school distance category or admission eligibility. Check your exact residential address using OneMap School Query and MOE’s guidance.
Food & Markets: NEA via data.gov.sg; retrieved 12 Nov 2026. See the source for its coverage period. Singapore Open Data Licence. Covers NEA-listed centres and selected supplementary food locations, not all restaurants, coffee shops or private food courts.
Parks & Recreation: NParks park points and SportSG facilities, via data.gov.sg, retrieved 12 Nov 2026. Singapore Open Data Licence.

Selected attractions and museums use separately sourced official addresses, matched by exact postal code through OneMap; these are not part of the NParks / SportSG datasets. Check operator access, fees, bookings, current opening status and source coverage dates.
