A current primary-data framework for prices, volumes, rents, supply and affordability.

Updated September 2026. Legacy figures are retired. Use current primary data and record the period for every statistic.

Five measures worth checking

  1. Price index change by housing segment
  2. Transaction volume and sale type
  3. Rental index, contracts and vacancy context
  4. Completed, pipeline and unsold supply
  5. Household financing cost and affordability buffer

Read each statistic correctly

Confirm the source, geography, property type, unit, frequency and revision date. A national index does not value an individual home, while a project transaction may not represent the broader market.

Use current URA and HDB series, disclose the cut-off date, and avoid presenting any statistic as a prediction or investment recommendation.
