PropGPT financial score

36out of 100

Weak case on the numbers

Confidence: high, most figures known (90% of the weight known)

Adds up the measurable lines below: price against comparable homes, rental yield, the lease, how nearby prices moved, MRT distance and competing supply. 65 or more is a strong case on the numbers, 45 to 64 fair, under 45 weak. It leaves out what only you can judge (layout, school, the view) and is not a valuation or advice.

What a property agent would weigh up, from public data. Each line gives a plain answer and what it means for you. Open “Show the calculation” on any line for the exact figures.

PropGPT compares private condos and apartments only (ECs with ECs). HDB flats and landed homes are never in these comparisons, and every price is a real sale recorded by URA, not an asking price.

Price vs similar resale homes nearby · Neutral
Costs about 15% more than similar older homes nearby

What it compares
This project's median price per sq ft (its own new sales in the last 12 months) against resale condos and apartments within 1.5 km, sold Nov 2025 to Nov 2026, 698–1,886 sq ft (this project's sizes, widened 20% each way). Each resale price is scaled to this project's lease, and to its building age (a new building, expected TOP 2030) where the resale's completion year is known. Not included: HDB flats, landed homes, homes resold before completion (sub-sales), and this project itself.
The figures
This project: S$3,021 psf, the median of its own new sales in the last 12 months.
Nearby resale: S$2,623 psf, the median of 136 sales after the lease adjustment.
Lease adjustment, for example: a freehold resale at S$2,000 psf counts as about S$1,920 against a new 99-year lease (96% of freehold); a 99-year resale with 70 years left at S$1,500 psf counts as about S$1,646.
Age adjustment: 136 of 136 nearby sales are also scaled to this project's age (a new building, expected TOP 2030), about 0.9% per year of difference. For example, a resale in a building 10 years older at S$1,500 psf counts as about S$1,648.
Gap: S$3,021 psf ÷ S$2,623 psf − 1 = +15%. Usual gap (the middle of 64 launches selling now): +17%. In your favour when this gap is 5 percentage points or more below the usual gap; watch out when 5 or more above.
How fair is this comparison?
A rough guide only. Older homes against a new launch. Lease and size range are matched, building age is adjusted at an average rate; the premium for a brand-new home, condition, floor and facilities are not. That is why the line compares the gap with the usual gap for launches rather than with zero.
What this check cannot see
Building age is adjusted at one average rate, about 0.9% a year (measured from 10,793 private resales in 1,531 condos, Oct 2025 to Oct 2026). Real prices fall faster in a building's first 15 years and slower after, faster for 99-year leases than freehold, and upkeep differs between buildings.
The lease adjustment uses the SLA leasehold table (Bala's Table), which values land, not the building; on very old leases it may over-adjust.
Floor level, view, facing and unit mix are not adjusted. A project whose recent sales were mostly high floors looks dearer.
1.5 km in a straight line can reach across an expressway, river or park into a different market.
URA gives one map point per project, so large projects are measured from a single spot.

How fair is this comparison?
A rough guide only. Same region or type only: a region mixes places near and far from the city, and each launch's land cost differs.
What this check cannot see
Region medians mix very different locations: Orchard and Toa Payoh are both in the Central region.
Unit sizes are not matched: small units cost more per sq ft, so a project of mostly small units looks dearer.

What it compares
This project's price per sq ft against what the developer likely needs to break even: the land price per sq ft of allowed floor area (psf ppr) × 1.4.
The figures
Land: S$1,432 per sq ft of plot ratio, Government Land Sales tender in 2025
Likely breakeven: about S$2,005 psf (land × 1.4: land plus construction, financing and fees)
This project: S$3,021 psf; S$3,021 psf ÷ S$2,005 psf = 1.51. In your favour under 1.15; watch out at 1.3 or more.
How fair is this comparison?
Fair. This project's own land and price; only the cost of building is estimated.
What this check cannot see
× 1.4 is a rule of thumb; consultants' estimates for a site differ, and construction costs rose sharply after 2021.
The land price may or may not include a lease top-up or development charge; the research notes say which when known.
Land bought years ago is cheaper in today's money, so older land makes the margin look bigger.

The figures
Nearby rent: S$4.59 per sq ft a month, median of 871 contracts (URA, Q1 2026 to Q3 2026)
Yield = S$4.59 × 12 ÷ S$3,021 psf = 1.8%. In your favour when 0.3 percentage points or more above the typical yield; watch out when 0.3 or more below.
How fair is this comparison?
Fair. Rents of similar homes nearby, not of this project, which is not finished yet.
What this check cannot see
Gross yield: property tax, maintenance fees, agent fees and empty months usually take 1 to 2 percentage points off.
URA records rented sizes as ranges (for example 900–1,000 sq ft); PropGPT uses the middle.
New homes usually rent for more than the older homes nearby, so this may understate.

FOURTH AVENUE RESIDENCES (988 m): +4% from 2022-Q1 to 2026-Q2; market +25%
In your favour when 60% or more of nearby projects beat the market; watch out at 40% or fewer.
How fair is this comparison?
A rough guide only. Each project against itself over time, so like for like within a project; but the projects are not this one.
What this check cannot see
PropGPT's sales data starts in October 2021, so an older project's 'first year' is a resale year, not its launch.
A project's early sales may be small units and later ones large, or the other way round.
Past price moves do not predict future ones.

Good to know (not judged)

Sales so far · Fact
11.3% sold in 1 month
Fast sales show interest, but projects that sold fast have later made losses and slow sellers have made gains. Not a sign of profit.
Project size · Fact
212 homes
Big projects have more facilities but more owners selling against you at the same time.
Government land sales and big developments nearby · Fact
3 planned within about 2 km
New land sales add competing homes; new stations, malls and offices add demand. Both are public, so prices may already include them.
