What the prices say

What sells here
4 homes sold in the last 12 months, up from 2 in the 12 months before.
None of the 6 sales in the last 24 months were first sales of new units: all 6 were resales.
The first new sale in our records was in June 2006.
Rents and yield
Rental contracts that began in the 12 months to August 2026 had a median rent of S$5,100 a month (39 contracts). The district's median across every contract was S$4,500, so rents here ran noticeably above it: about 13% higher.
Over the 24 months the median rent was S$5,300 (74 contracts). The latest 12 months ran a little below that: about 4% lower. The two periods overlap, so this shows direction and not a clean year-on-year change.
By bedrooms: 2 bedrooms S$4,825 (32) and 3 bedrooms S$6,800 (7). The figure in brackets is the number of contracts.
Age and lease
The title is a leasehold, so the years remaining shrink each year. The leases and tenure entry in the glossary explains what that means for a buyer.
