This report, dated 3 November 2026, covers Stacked research published on 2 November 2026.

What Stacked reported

Stacked reports that comparable resale condos in the Core Central Region cost 1.19 times, or 19 percent more per square foot, than those in the Rest of Central Region in its latest sample. It describes this as the smallest gap since 1998 on its grouped comparison.

Method and limits

The window is the 12 months ending 18 October 2026. Transactions are grouped by unit size and age, with new launches, executive condominiums, and outliers excluded. Stacked notes that projects, floor levels, tenure, and small samples can affect results. This is Stacked research, not an official price index, a valuation of every property, or a sign of rebound.

General comparison checklist

These general points are not drawn from the Stacked study.

• Compare actual unit condition, including layout and renovation needs.
• Compare total quantum, not only price per square foot.
• Note the tenure of each unit, freehold or leasehold.
• Weigh location factors such as MRT access, amenities, and noise.
• Check how closely size, age, and floor level match between units.
