Lease count trend by flat type — whether demand for each size is rising or falling, not just this month's snapshot.

HDB rental transactions are not published with floor area, so rent is reported here as median $/month, not $/sqft.

05Lease Decay Comparison

Median resale PSF by remaining lease band, East vs Singapore-wide, over the trailing 4 months (a single month is too thin at most flat-type × lease-band combinations to report reliably).
