Singapore Home Prices Rise 1.4% in Q3, Sales Slow

Singapore's private home prices rose 1.4% in the third quarter of 2026, their strongest quarterly gain since Q4 2024, according to URA's flash estimates. That brings cumulative growth over the first nine months to about 2.8%.
Key numbers
-
Transactions: 4,296 private home deals up to mid-September, compared with 6,148 in Q2, a fall of roughly 30%
-
HDB resale prices: down 0.2%, the third quarter in a row of easing, though HDB transactions were up 5.2% year on year at 7,528
-
Year to date: 15,857 private transactions, below 19,793 a year earlier
Why prices rose while sales fell
The mix matters. New non-landed private homes (excluding executive condominiums) had a median price up 9.6% quarter on quarter at S$2,567 per sq ft, while resale private homes eased 1% to S$1,772 per sq ft. Landed homes and suburban condos led price growth.
The launches
Lentor Gardens Residences sold 291 of 499 units (about 58%), and Dunearn House sold 237 of 380 (about 62%), based on caveats up to September 20.
The takeaway
Flash estimates are early, and URA's full figures will confirm the picture. For now it is a market where price resilience sits alongside a clear slowdown in volume.
