Strong case on the numbers
Confidence: high, most figures known (100% 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.

Price vs similar resale homes nearby · In your favour
Costs about 10% more than similar older homes nearby
New launches usually cost about 17% more than the older homes around them (the middle figure of the 64 launches selling now). This one's extra is smaller than usual, so less of your price is a new-home premium.

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, 396–1,667 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 2027) 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$2,772 psf, the median of its own new sales in the last 12 months.
- Nearby resale: S$2,516 psf, the median of 197 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: 193 of 197 nearby sales are also scaled to this project's age (a new building, expected TOP 2027), 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. The other 4 have no known completion year and are not age-adjusted.
- Gap: S$2,772 psf ÷ S$2,516 psf − 1 = +10%. 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.

- In your favour when 5% or more cheaper; watch out when 5% or more dearer.
How fair is this comparison?
Fair. New launches against new launches of similar sizes. Their land costs, finishes, facilities and launch dates differ, and a launch sells different floors at different stages.What this check cannot see
- Developer discounts and rebates are not in URA's caveat data, so real prices may be lower than recorded.
- 1.5 km in a straight line can reach across an expressway, river or park into a different market.
- A launch late in its sales has fewer cheap units left, so its median rises.

- In your favour when 10% or more below the typical price; watch out when 10% or more above.
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$1,540 per sq ft of plot ratio, collective (en bloc) sale in 2021
- Likely breakeven: about S$2,156 psf (land × 1.4: land plus construction, financing and fees)
- This project: S$2,772 psf; S$2,772 psf ÷ S$2,156 psf = 1.29. 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.

Rents of condos and apartments of similar size within 1.5 km (URA rental contracts, last 4 quarters), per sq ft, × 12, against this project's price per sq ft.The figures
- Nearby rent: S$5.12 per sq ft a month, median of 1,699 contracts (URA, Q1 2026 to Q3 2026)
- Yield = S$5.12 × 12 ÷ S$2,772 psf = 2.2%. 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.
Lease · In your favour
Freehold
No lease runs down, so the home does not lose value as the years pass. Buyers usually pay more for this.
Based on URA's title record

The title's tenure, as recorded by URA.How fair is this comparison?
Very fair. A fact about this home.What this check cannot see
- Freehold land does not protect the building: it still ages, and an en bloc sale needs most owners to agree.

- MEYER MANSION (814 m): +11% from 2022-Q2 to 2026-Q1; market +21%
- 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.

What it compares
Stamp duties under the current IRAS rates for the price shown.The figures
- Stamp duty on S$1.43M: S$41,800 (assumes a Singapore citizen buying a first home)
- Selling within 4 years of buying costs seller's stamp duty of 16% falling to 4%; buying now, that ends around Nov 2030.
- Interest is paid only on the loan drawn so far; payments rise as the building goes up.
How fair is this comparison?
Very fair. Worked out for this price.What this check cannot see
- Assumes a Singapore citizen buying a first home until you add your details.
Good to know (not judged)
Sales so far · Fact
90.7% sold in 17 months
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
107 homes
Big projects have more facilities but more owners selling against you at the same time.
Government land sales and big developments nearby · Fact
1 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.
