02ResaleJuly 2026

The $1,461 median PSF represents a 1.1% dip against June's $1,478. Caveat count rose 15% from 85 to 98. Figures cover condo and EC resale only — landed and strata-landed are excluded as their per-sqft dynamics differ materially from the strata market. Both sides should anchor to recent comparables.

This month in District 18: 3 penthouse sales · 2 dual-key units · 4 study units · 1 sky unit · 2 duplex units.

A Roncasa exclusive — no other Singapore property platform surfaces penthouse, dual-key, study, sky, or duplex units at the individual-caveat level.

Treasure At Tampines led with 11 caveats (11% of all district resale) at a median $1,760 psf — 20% above the district median. Coco Palms and D'Nest followed with 6 and 6 caveats respectively. Concentration in a few projects usually signals strong secondary-market liquidity — these PSF figures are your most current real-world price anchors.

Unsold Stock

Project Available Total % Sold
Parktown Residence 26 units 69 units 62%

Thin new launch inventory (26 units across 1 project) — late-stage availability tends to be niche (specific types, higher floors). For most buyers here, resale is the market. With almost no new launch left, resale is effectively the only market. Don't expect developers to set the price ceiling here.

05Ron's Read
Ron's Read

District 18 held its pricing in July 2026 with minimal movement. That kind of stability reflects a balanced market — neither side holds strong leverage. Anchor to recent comparables on both sides. Sentiment isn't driving this market right now — data is. New launch supply is limited — treat resale listings as the real price benchmark here, not developer pricing on what's left.
