Practical guidance for renters, buyers and sellers. This is not a valuation, it is a starting point for comparing real transactions.
Rent negotiation

Rentals 56
Rent signal Strong
- If the asking rent is above the median, look for a clear reason such as larger size, newer condition, furnishings or a better stack.
- If it is below the median, check whether the unit is smaller, older, lower floor or has a shorter lease term.
Offer check
If you are buying
Recent sales at Shelford 23 point to a typical sale price of $2,675,000 and $1,794 psf. Treat those as the first comparable range, then adjust for floor, size, condition and tenure.
Median sale $2,675,000
Median PSF $1,794 psf
Sale signal Moderate
- Compare the unit against the sale by floor table before deciding whether a premium makes sense.
- Freehold should be part of the buying decision, especially when comparing against newer leasehold or nearby freehold projects.

For sellers, the cleanest starting point is the project median PSF, then the latest sales and nearby project comps. Shelford 23 has 8 sales on this page, so pricing should be checked against actual recent contracts before listing.
Sale signal Moderate
Total sold value $20.8M
Latest record Jun 2026
- Use the latest sales table to avoid anchoring to stale prices when the most recent month moved differently.
