Highest HDB resale prices in Singapore
The highest HDB resale prices are the actual record transactions, not a median benchmark. They are useful because they show what buyers have paid at the top end, but they still need context from the street page, flat type, storey range, floor area, remaining lease and PSF.
Data is for research and comparison only.Record sale first, then context
A record HDB resale price tells you the highest amount paid in a real transaction. It is powerful as a headline, but it should not be treated as the normal price for every nearby flat.
After you spot the record sale, open the street page. That is where the wider evidence appears: median price, median PSF, recent transactions, flat type mix and storey range.
What to make of this
For HDB resale, the read should move from estate to street to flat type, then finally to the actual block story. The main anchors here are highest resale record $1,728,000 (96A Henderson Road, Bukit Merah) and top street median $1,100,000 (Bidadari Pk Drive, Toa Payoh). The estate median is a good first read, but the street and flat type are where the price starts to feel real.
96A Henderson Road in Bukit Merah / 5-room is the first row I would open, with sale price $1,728,000 and sale PSF $1,421 psf. If the top comparison does not match the flat type or street you care about, do not force it. A less glamorous but closer comparable is usually more useful.
What I would check next
I would move from the estate page into the street page, then filter mentally by flat type. A 4-room resale and an executive flat can make the same estate look very different.
If the asking price is above the street evidence, the flat should have a reason buyers can see: lease balance, condition, floor, view, renovation, larger area or stronger daily convenience.
Why some HDB flats break records
Higher resale prices can come from central location, newer blocks, larger floor area, loft layouts, high floors, views, long remaining lease, MRT access, school access and strong buyer demand.
PSF matters beside the total price. A large flat can create a huge quantum, while PSF helps show whether buyers also paid a premium for each square foot.
How buyers should use the list
Use the list to understand where premium HDB resale demand has already shown up. Then compare against similar flat types, similar floor area and similar storey ranges.
If an asking price is trying to anchor near a record sale, the flat needs a visible reason. Renovation, lease, floor, view, layout and exact block position should all be part of the discussion.
How sellers should use the list
A nearby record sale can help frame the conversation, but buyers will still ask whether your flat is truly comparable. The closer the flat type, storey range, floor area and lease balance, the stronger the anchor.
If your flat is not comparable to the record sale, use the street median and recent transactions as the safer benchmark.

Quick answers
Short answers based on the current data view.
What is the highest HDB resale price in Singapore?
Use the table for the latest record in the loaded dataset. The top record can change when new resale transactions are published.
Is the highest HDB sale a fair benchmark?
Only if the flat is comparable. Check flat type, floor area, storey range, remaining lease, condition, exact street and PSF before using it as an anchor.
Why still look at median resale price?
Median resale price shows the normal benchmark for a street or estate. A record sale shows the top end. Both are useful, but they answer different questions.
Should buyers avoid streets with record HDB prices?
No. A premium can be justified by location, lease, flat size, condition and convenience. The key is whether the asking price is supported by comparable transactions.
Is this list enough to value one flat?
No. Open the street page and compare flat type, floor area, storey range, remaining lease, condition and recent resale records.
