Condo sellers can strengthen the decision by reviewing selling your condo in Singapore, reviewing your property sale approach and condo sale preparation steps alongside current buyer demand.
Quick answer
There is no single market-wide answer. URA’s final 2Q 2026 figures showed that overall private residential prices rose by 0.5% from the previous quarter, while non-landed prices dipped by 0.1%. Resale activity increased, but price movement differed across the Core Central Region, Rest of Central Region and Outside Central Region.
For a condominium owner, the decision should be based on recent evidence from the same project and competing developments, the unit’s condition, likely sale proceeds, holding position and next-property timeline. The quarterly headline is useful context, but it does not determine whether a particular unit should be sold.
Key takeaways
- Overall private residential prices rose 0.5% quarter on quarter in 2Q 2026.
- Non-landed private residential prices fell 0.1%, after rising 1.0% in 1Q 2026.
- Non-landed prices rose 1.8% in the CCR, fell 1.2% in the RCR and fell 0.1% in the OCR.
- There were 3,813 resale transactions, up from 3,225 in the previous quarter.
- Resales accounted for 62.0% of all sale transactions, compared with 59.6% in 1Q 2026.
- A seller should still review project-specific comparables, competing supply, unit presentation, timing and estimated proceeds before deciding.
Background
Singapore’s condominium market is made up of many submarkets. Results can differ by district, project age, tenure, unit type, floor, facing, condition and buyer profile. Even within the same development, two units may attract different responses because of layout, view, renovation and asking-price position.
URA’s quarterly private residential statistics help owners understand broad market direction. They do not provide a valuation for an individual property and should be considered together with current project-level evidence.
Latest 2Q 2026 update
On 24 July 2026, the Urban Redevelopment Authority released its final real-estate statistics for 2Q 2026.
URA reported that:
- prices of private residential properties increased by 0.5% in 2Q 2026, compared with a 0.9% increase in 1Q 2026;
- prices of landed properties increased by 2.5%;
- prices of non-landed properties decreased by 0.1%;
- non-landed prices increased by 1.8% in the Core Central Region;
- non-landed prices decreased by 1.2% in the Rest of Central Region;
- non-landed prices decreased by 0.1% in the Outside Central Region;
- 3,813 resale transactions were recorded, compared with 3,225 in the previous quarter; and
- resale transactions represented 62.0% of all sale transactions, up from 59.6% in 1Q 2026.
URA also reported that 1,212 private residential units, including executive condominiums, were completed during the quarter. The figures in the release were accurate as of 24 July 2026.
Who is affected
The update is relevant to condominium owners considering a sale in 2026, owners comparing a sale with continued leasing, households planning a move to another property, and sellers whose asking-price expectations were formed using earlier market conditions.
It is particularly useful for owners who need to assess whether recent resale activity is also visible within their own project and unit segment.
Who is not affected
The non-landed private residential figures should not be applied directly to HDB flats, landed homes, commercial or industrial property, or a specific condominium unit without reviewing its own attributes and relevant comparable evidence.
Owners who are not ready to move, cannot meet their intended housing timeline or have not reviewed the financial implications should not treat stronger resale volume alone as a reason to sell.
What remains unchanged
The latest statistics do not replace the practical work required for a well-considered sale. Owners should still review:
- recent transactions and competing listings in the same project and nearby developments;
- the unit’s condition, presentation and likely buyer profile;
- the estimated sale proceeds after the outstanding loan, CPF refund and transaction costs;
- tenancy obligations if the property is occupied;
- the timing and affordability of the next property; and
- applicable legal, financing, CPF and stamp-duty requirements.
No market statistic guarantees a particular selling price or completion timeline.
Planning considerations
Start with evidence from the project
Review recent transactions for comparable stacks and unit types, then compare current competing listings. A market-wide index can provide direction, but buyers normally compare the unit with realistic alternatives available at that time. A property valuation review can help organise this evidence before an asking price is set.
Assess the unit’s condition and presentation
Repairs, decluttering, photography and viewing preparation can affect first impressions. The appropriate work depends on the unit and target buyer; expensive improvements do not automatically produce an equivalent return. Use a focused condo sale preparation checklist rather than renovating without clear evidence.
Understand the buyer’s alternatives
A resale condominium may compete with other resale units, completed new launches and projects approaching completion. Compare total price, layout, tenure, maintenance fees, location, condition and move-in timing from the likely buyer’s perspective.
Plan the transaction timeline
The marketing period, option dates, completion, loan redemption and handover should be coordinated with the owner’s next move. Sellers who are also buying should review affordability and timing before committing; the TDSR property affordability guide provides a useful starting point.
Check tenancy obligations
If the property is tenanted, review the tenancy agreement, notice provisions, access for viewings and the intended sale basis. A sale with vacant possession and a sale subject to tenancy may appeal to different buyer groups.
Estimate sale proceeds carefully
Review the outstanding loan, CPF principal and accrued interest to be refunded, legal fees, agent fees and other applicable costs. The CPF refund guide for property sellers explains the main planning checks. Obtain professional advice where required.
Use a structured pricing review
A realistic initial range should reflect project evidence, the unit’s attributes and current competition. Review market response after launch and adjust only with evidence. The broader condo selling guide sets out the full sale process.
