Aurum Land’s S$84.2 million Watten Estate deal sets a benchmark—with limits
The freehold purchase confirms demand for rare redevelopment-scale land in Bukit Timah, but its S$2,266 psf rate is not a ready-made valuation for every nearby home.
One Fort reaches $2,100 psf as selective demand lifts District 15 freehold resales
Three boutique projects have established new price records, but their thin transaction histories and softer wider-market data argue against treating the deals as a new District 15 benchmark.
Punggol East’s riverfront is turning residential—but 8,000 homes are not yet approved

From 7 September, the state begins selling more than 80 properties seized in Singapore's S$3 billion money laundering case — and in thin luxury sub-markets, that is enough to rewrite the comparables.
6.66% There, 1.4% Here: The Number That Actually Sizes Your Singapore Home Loan Is 4.00%
US 30-year mortgages are stuck above 6.5%, but Singapore borrowers are quoted fixed packages from around 1.4% — and neither figure decides how much a bank will lend you.
