Why it's pushing up

What matters most for you

  • ConvenientMRT about 7 min on foot; 4 supermarkets nearby.
  • Rentable~2.4% gross yield; transport and schools nearby keep tenants coming.

And what makes it better

  • Every unit type has risen — 5-bed +30.0%, 4-bed +4.4% since 2022.
  • A Primary-1 priority school within 1km — a real family draw.

What's holding it back

  • Its recent +6.8%/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.
  • Larger units — entry starts around $2.97M, not an easy first step.

Our readSo what should I do?

The price to fight for — and the endgame

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

$2.53M

Aim at the middle or below. A patient buyer has been getting closer to $2.44M.

If you’re selling

~$2.64M

List at the top of fair; realistic close is $2.53M–$2.56M 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?

Likely worth then$4.88M
Paper gain+$2.35M

Our blunt read: ~$2.35M 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 (~6.8%/yr), and past pace never promises the future.

Core Central Region (CCR) · District 10 · ~$1,987 psf · 2.4% yield

own price

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 The Legend, its own prices are still climbing. Over a 4-year hold, expect modest growth — not a big jump.

◀ HeadwindsTailwinds ▶

On balance, the wind is leaning to your favour.

!

What it means for you: At ~$1,987 psf, The Legend is priced below similar new projects nearby — good value against its peers. Its own prices are still climbing (~6.8%/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.

Where we are in the cycle

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.

This project (The Legend)

Supports prices

The Legend's own prices are still climbing — about +11% in the latest year of sales.

Your area vs the rest

Supports prices

The prime districts (CCR) lagged the others since 2004 — more room to catch up.

Government cooling measures

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.

Home-loan rates

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.

Prices vs salaries

Supports prices

Against salaries, prices aren't expensive by past standards — people can still afford to buy.

New people moving in

Supports prices

Lots of new people keep moving to Singapore (non-residents up ~16% over 5 years) — steady demand for homes and rentals.

New supply nearby

About neutral

A moderate amount of new supply is coming to this district (~1,770 units).

1.8k units
New launches selling

Supports prices

New launches in this district are selling well — 7 recent ones are around 84% sold, so buyer demand here is healthy right now.

84% sold
New land being released

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.

Foreign buyers

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.

1.4% foreign
Rents (Singapore-wide)

About neutral

Rents across Singapore have flattened out lately.

Money ready to spend

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.

The wider economy

Supports prices · small effect

The economy is growing (5% last year) and jobs are steady (1.9% unemployment) — no alarm bells.

Building costs

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.

How far could it go — and when?

Is the price high? ~$1,987 psf is ~31% below similar nearby projects (~$2,900). 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.

The Legend has grown ~6.8%/yr over ~4 years. Similar nearby: Skye At Holland 0.1%, Leedon Green 0.1%, D'Leedon 4.3%, Upperhouse At Orchard Boulevard 6.8%, Hyll On Holland 2.3% — a 0.16.8%/yr spread (most around 2.3%).

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.

Yes, by the time you can sell
Sell earliest (yr 4):at its own ~6.8%/yr, ~$2,585/sqft by year 4 — already past your target.
