Ron's Read

Bishan saw both prices and volume ease in July 2026 — the kind of double softening that creates real negotiating room. Not a distressed signal, but sellers who priced optimistically may need to recalibrate. For buyers, this is a window — softening PSF is the better entry setup. Don't wait for the market to confirm the bottom. That 41% 4-Room lease-decay spread between the 80-89 and 60-69 bands is the number to anchor any negotiation on a shorter-lease unit here — don't let a seller price a thinning lease like a fresh one.
