What sells here

The most common size was 600 to 899 sq ft, with 16 of the 53 sales in the last 24 months.

The first new sale in our records was in July 2014.
Rents and yield
Rental contracts that began in the 12 months to August 2026 had a median rent of S$5,000 a month (117 contracts). The district's median across every contract was S$4,700, so rents here ran a little above it: about 6% higher.
Over the 24 months the median rent was S$5,300 (213 contracts). The latest 12 months ran a little below that: about 6% lower. The two periods overlap, so this shows direction and not a clean year-on-year change.
By bedrooms: 1 bedroom S$4,050 (16), 2 bedrooms S$4,600 (52), 3 bedrooms S$7,000 (31) and 4 or more bedrooms S$8,500 (18). The figure in brackets is the number of contracts.
Setting rent against price for 600 to 899 sq ft homes (52 rentals and 11 resale or sub-sale transactions) gives a gross yield estimate of 3.4%: a median rent of S$4,500 a month against a median price of S$1,585,000. It is before maintenance, vacancy, tax and loan costs, and it uses middle values, so a particular home can differ.
Across 3 size ranges the estimate runs from 3.0% to 3.4%.
1,200 to 1,499 sq ft: 3.3% (rent S$6,850 a month, price S$2,480,000) and 1,500 sq ft and over: 3.0% (rent S$8,500 a month, price S$3,380,000).
Age and lease
11 other projects in District 3 (Alexandra / Commonwealth) were completed within 5 years of The Crest and have a price. Their middle price was S$2,252 psf, so The Crest sold noticeably below projects of a similar age: about 11% lower.
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.

What this page cannot tell you
A median is the middle of many different homes in The Crest. It does not describe one unit: its condition, facing, view, renovation, floor or stack can each move a price well away from the middle, and none of them is in the records behind this page.
The figures are recorded transactions, so they describe what has sold and not what is on the market now. They are not a valuation, and they say nothing about future prices.
