Updated September 2026. Price per square foot can vary with unit size, but size alone does not explain value or future performance. The retired MOAT Analysis tools are not used or linked here.
A reproducible size and PSF study
- Define separate HDB and private-condo samples, dates and sale types.
- Create transparent floor-area bands before reviewing results.
- Control for town or district, project, tenure, age, floor and condition.
- Report transaction counts, medians, ranges and total quantum.
- Test whether the relationship holds across periods and submarkets.
Smaller units can show higher PSF because fixed location and project attributes are spread over less area, while larger units can command higher total quantum. Neither pattern is universal. Review the dated Q1 2022 report, current public-housing discussion and latest insights with their stated periods.
