HDB rent vs resale · market data
Rent vs resale by town
Trailing-36-month resale medians next to owner-declared HDB monthly rents — not a rental yield, not a mortgage calculator, and not CEA agent deal prices.
Resale Sep 2023 – Aug 2026 · Rent Sep 2023 – Aug 2026 · as of 2026-08-14 · Methodology
4-room · 25 towns
Towns with at least 10 4-room resales and 10 owner-declared rents, ordered by annual rent relative to the resale median.
Rents are owner-declared on HDB approval forms — HDB does not verify them. This ratio is not a rental yield, cash-flow model, or advice to buy or rent. Area links are CEA activity counts — separate from these prices.
