On balance, Kentish Green points up.
Strong track record — the fundamentals buyers pay up for are here.
Why it's pushing up
What matters most for you
- Convenient — MRT about 8 min on foot; 15 supermarkets, 8 food & retail spots nearby.
- Rentable — steady rental demand; transport and schools nearby keep tenants coming.
And what makes it better
- Every unit type has risen — 4-bed +26.3%, 3-bed +19.6% since 2021.
- A Primary-1 priority school within 1km — a real family draw.
What's holding it back
- Leasehold, ~68 years left — the lease clock weighs on price and financing the older it gets.
- Its recent +6.0%/yr rode a hot cycle — don't bank on that pace repeating.
- The market's near the top of its cycle — mind your entry price.
Should I buy?

No agent, no listing, no one paying us — so we’ll say it plainly, whichever side of the table you’re on, for the size you picked.
If you’re buying
≤ $1.69M
Aim at the middle or below. A patient buyer has been getting closer to $1.63M.
If you’re selling
~$1.76M
List at the top of fair; realistic close is $1.69M–$1.71M unless it’s a high floor.
Why no rush either way: Seller’s Stamp Duty means a buyer can’t sell penalty-free for ~4 years — so you’re holding regardless. That’s your leverage to negotiate down now, not overpay.
The reality check — does the gain even make sense?
Our blunt read: ~$1.34M over 10 years at this project’s own pace. It works — but forward from a cycle top, treat it as a maybe, not a promise. This is our own POV, not a forecast — the pace is the project’s own (~6.0%/yr), and past pace never promises the future.

If you’re buying — the outlook
Kentish Green
Rest of Central Region (RCR) · District 08 · ~$1,296 psf
Prices are near the top of the cycle, and the government is still cooling it — but cheap loans and steady immigration are holding them up. For Kentish Green, its own prices have been flat lately. Over a 4-year hold, expect sideways-to-modest — not a big jump.
On balance, the wind is roughly even.
What it means for you: At ~$1,296 psf, Kentish Green is priced below similar new projects nearby — good value against its peers. Its own prices are still climbing (~6%/yr over ~5 years). You'd also be buying near the top of the cycle, so entry price matters. So — negotiate, don't overpay, and plan to hold past the 4-year stamp-duty window before selling.
The signals behind it
Dots show how much weight each one carries.
Holds prices back
Prices are near the top — up 33% in 5 years, well above the 4.6%/year long-run pace. Less room left to climb.
About neutral
Kentish Green's own prices have gone flat over the latest year.
About neutral
The city fringe (RCR) sits in the middle of the three areas on long-run growth.
Holds prices back
The government is still cooling the market — the latest was SSD back to 4 years at 16/12/8/4% (2025). That caps how fast prices can run.
Supports prices
Loan rates are cheap right now (~1.08%) and falling. Easy to carry — which supports prices, but also means more buyers competing with you.
Supports prices
Against salaries, prices aren't expensive by past standards — people can still afford to buy.
Supports prices
Lots of new people keep moving to Singapore (non-residents up ~16% over 5 years) — steady demand for homes and rentals.
Holds prices back · small effect
The government keeps releasing a lot of new land (~9,200 units this half-year) — more future supply that can weigh on prices years down the road.
Holds prices back · small effect
Foreign buyers are almost gone since the 60% tax (~1.4% of buyers) — a small drag on the city fringe.
About neutral
Rents across Singapore have flattened out lately.
Supports prices · small effect
There's more CPF money sitting ready to put toward a home than a few years back — a small support in the background.
Supports prices · small effect
The economy is growing (5% last year) and jobs are steady (1.9% unemployment) — no alarm bells.
Supports prices · small effect
Building costs are high (up ~39% since 2010) and still creeping up — developers can't build cheap, which puts a floor under new-launch prices.
Built from real public data (URA price index back to 1975, plus rates, immigration, rents, the economy). It prepares you — it never promises a price.
How far could it go — and when?
Is the price high? ~$1,296 psf is ~41% below similar nearby projects (~$2,213). good value
(The whole city fringe average is ~$1,830 psf — but that lumps in older stock, so we compare like with like, not against that.)
What’s realistic here? Its own record and its real neighbours — not the market.
Kentish Green has grown ~6%/yr over ~5 years. Similar nearby: Piccadilly Grand 2.7%, Citylights 3.2%, City Square Residences 4.6%, Sturdee Residences 3.4% — a 2.7–4.6%/yr spread (most around 3.4%).
You can’t sell for ~4 years without a penalty. Seller’s Stamp Duty is 16/12/8/4% in years 1–4, then 0% — so the honest question is what happens from year 4 on.
