Price bands & volume

How often is this market update published?
The update is published monthly, or more frequently when fresh URA transaction data justifies an interim note.
Where does the transaction data come from?
Transaction prices, counts and property details are sourced from URA REALIS caveated data. Price-index figures come from the URA Property Price Index. Stamp-duty context is referenced from IRAS, HDB resale trends from HDB, planning and plot-ratio checks from URA/SLA, and infrastructure or drainage context from LTA, PUB and MOE where relevant.
Does the update cover condos and HDB?
No. This update focuses on landed property — terrace, semi-detached and detached houses — in Kovan, Serangoon and surrounding District 19 estates.
Why do some transactions show “$0” or look unusual?
A “$0” or unusually low figure usually means the transfer was not an arm’s-length sale — for example, a family transfer or a partial-share transaction. URA REALIS records the caveat value that was lodged, and these cases are excluded from median and price-band calculations unless explicitly noted.
How should I use the buy/sell/hold signal?
Treat it as a starting point based on public data, not a personal recommendation. Your own timeline, financing, plot attributes and street-specific factors may point to a different answer. Use it to decide whether a private review is worth doing.
Can you review my specific street or property?
Yes. Use the form on this page or WhatsApp 97554568 to request a private review. The review will cover recent comparable sales, street-level observations and a clear view on whether the current data supports selling, buying or holding.
