What to make of this

This district read is useful as a mood check, but I would not price a home from the district number alone. The main anchors here are median rent $4,000 (2,722 rentals) and median sale $1,879,500 ($2,147 psf). The better move is to use the district to spot the active pockets, then open the projects with enough rent and sale evidence.

Springleaf Residence in D26 / Upper Thomson, Springleaf is the first row I would open, with median rent - and median sale $1,770,000. Use that as the first follow-up: check whether the leading projects are stronger, or whether one project is pulling the district average around.

What I would check next

I would open the top projects in the district, then compare rent depth, sale depth and tenure before forming a view. District averages are useful, but the project mix can change the story quickly.

If the district looks strong but the project evidence is thin, widen the search to nearby districts with similar buyer demand. That keeps the decision from leaning too hard on one noisy slice of the market.

Projects to open first

Start with Springleaf Residence, Lentor Modern and Lentor Hills Residences because they carry the most activity in D26. They are the fastest way to move from a district-level view to usable project comparables.

For cleaner rental comparisons, start with projects that have deeper rental data and recent monthly records.

For market attention, watch rising-volume projects such as Lentor Modern.
