The verdict · for an investor
Residences @ Killiney · Apartment · District 09 · Freehold
Residences @ Killiney is a mixed picture — a real case, with real caveats.
There's a genuine case here, but weigh the caveats below before you commit — the fundamentals and the record don't all point the same way.
Why it's pushing up
What matters most for you
- Convenient — MRT about 7 min on foot; 12 supermarkets, 13 food & retail spots nearby.
- Rentable — ~3.1% gross yield; transport and schools nearby keep tenants coming.
And what makes it better
- Every unit type has risen — 5-bed +4.6%, 3-bed +0.8% since 2021.
- A Primary-1 priority school within 1km — a real family draw.
What's holding it back
- The market's near the top of its cycle — mind your entry price.
- Larger units — entry starts around $3.82M, not an easy first step.
Should I buy?
There's a case — weigh the caveats first.

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
≤ $2.50M
Aim at the middle or below. A patient buyer has been getting closer to $2.41M.
If you’re selling
~$2.61M
List at the top of fair; realistic close is $2.50M–$2.53M 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: ~$401k 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 (~1.5%/yr), and past pace never promises the future.

If you’re buying — the outlook
Residences @ Killiney
Core Central Region (CCR) · District 09 · ~$2,348 psf · 3.1% yield
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 Residences @ Killiney, its own prices have been flat lately. Over a 4-year hold, expect modest growth — not a big jump.
On balance, the wind is leaning to your favour.
What it means for you: At ~$2,348 psf, Residences @ Killiney is priced below similar new projects nearby — good value against its peers. Its own prices are only creeping up (~1.5%/yr over ~4 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
Residences @ Killiney's own prices have gone flat over the latest year.
Supports prices
The prime districts (CCR) lagged the others since 2004 — more room to catch up.
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.
About neutral
A moderate amount of new supply is coming to this district (~1,998 units).
Supports prices
New launches in this district are selling well — 8 recent ones are around 100% sold, so buyer demand here is healthy right now.
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
Foreign buying has collapsed since the 60% tax — only ~1.4% of buyers now. For the prime market you're looking at, that's a real missing piece of demand.
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? ~$2,348 psf is ~31% below similar nearby projects (~$3,396). good value
(The whole prime average is ~$2,284 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.
Residences @ Killiney has grown ~1.5%/yr over ~4 years. Similar nearby: River Green 13.7%, The Avenir 2%, Irwell Hill Residences 1.7%, Kopar At Newton 3.1%, The Robertson Opus 5.6% — a 1.7–13.7%/yr spread (most around 3.1%).
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.
