What is the median resale PSF for a 3 room HDB flat?

Across towns, the median 3 room resale price ranges from about S$507 to S$897 per square foot, based on recent data.gov.sg transactions in snapshot 2026-11.

Do these 3 room prices factor in remaining lease?

No — PSF is not lease-adjusted, so we show each town's median remaining lease next to it. A shorter lease should pull PSF down, all else equal, but lease rarely explains the gap between towns: Bukit Merah (~S$897 PSF, ~53 yrs left) sits far above Novena (~S$507 PSF, ~47 yrs) even though it has the longer lease — the rest is location. Use the lease column to compare like-for-like rather than reading PSF alone.

Median S$/sq ft across each town’s blocks’ latest recorded 3 room resale PSF. Lower is cheaper. “Lease left” is the median remaining lease of those sales — PSF itself is not lease-adjusted, so a pricier town is not always the longer-lease one (central location usually outweighs lease decay).

Reading these 3 room prices

Price per square foot lets you compare 3 room flats across towns on the same footing, but it isn’t the whole story. A cheaper town may cost you in commute; a pricier one may pay you back in connectivity and resale demand. Weigh price against commute and overall liveability, and read how to read HDB resale prices to tell a fair price from a hopeful one.
