For renters

Start with the district rent band

$4,200 to $4,500

Rent momentum looks softening. Use this as the opening rent range, then tighten it with the exact project page, unit size and latest contracts.

Estimate only. Condition, furnishing, floor and view can move the real rent.

For buyers

Use PSF comps before chasing

$2,111 to $2,241 psf

Sale PSF is softening. Treat this as the first comparable range, then check nearby projects and recent transactions before making an offer.

Estimate only. URA records do not capture renovation quality, stack, view or urgency.

For sellers and landlords

Price close to recent evidence

Up to $2,330,000

If your unit has a clear advantage, test slightly above the district median. Otherwise, anchor to the project page so the ask does not look disconnected from recent contracts.

Estimate only. The exact project and unit attributes should drive final pricing.

Freehold vs leasehold in D15

Tenure matters most when buying or selling. Rentals still need project-level comps.

D15 has 452 freehold projects and 26 leasehold projects in our project records. For buyers, tenure should be part of the sale comparison because freehold projects can trade differently from newer leasehold projects with more facilities and cleaner recent comparables.

For renters, tenure is mostly background. Rent should still be judged by the exact project, unit size, condition, MRT access, schools and the latest rent data. Use tenure as a buying lens first, not as the main reason to pay more rent.

77 projects still need tenure added, so this mix will improve as we add more project facts.
