May 2026 was an active month for Toa Payoh — prices and volume moved up together. That's a stronger read than PSF gains on thin activity. When volume confirms price, it's real. Sellers can hold asking prices with reasonable confidence. Buyers chasing specific blocks should price in less negotiating room this month. That 53% 3-Room lease-decay spread between the 90+ and under-60 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.
