The smallest residential market in Singapore. Seventeen apartment transactions in twelve months, and effectively no condominium stock classified as such.
What the numbers say
Apartment transactions, 12 months to July 2026 (URA caveats). Rental medians, Q2 2026 (URA contracts). HDB figures are 4-room resale registrations for CENTRAL AREA, 12 months to July 2026 (data.gov.sg) — HDB publishes by town, not by postal district.
| Measure | Figure | Sample |
|---|---|---|
| Median private apartment | $3,107 psf | 17 transactions |
| Median rent (all sizes) | $5,613 / month | 25 contracts |
| HDB 4-room, CENTRAL AREA | $1,194,444 | 76 transactions |
Read this median with care. 17 transactions is a thin sample. It indicates a level; it cannot price a specific unit. Comp at project level before making any decision.
What moves price here
- Seventeen transactions. Any median here is a curiosity, not a benchmark. Price at project level or not at all.
- Stock is classified as Apartment, not Condominium — one reason district comparisons against suburban condo psf are meaningless here.
- The $3,107 psf median is the highest measured, but rests on a sample too small to carry weight.
Who it suits
A narrow band of buyers who want a civic-district address and are not relying on resale depth.
What to check before you commit
- Whether any genuine comparable exists
- Building age and maintenance history
- Rental demand at your unit size — 25 contracts district-wide in a quarter
Figures pulled 2026-07-23 from URA caveat data and HDB resale registrations — completed transactions, not portal asking prices. Caveats lag the live market by a few weeks. Want the numbers for a specific project or block in District 6? Ask me and I’ll pull them.
