Freehold by count, 99-year by sales
URA's records show 198 private apartment and condominium developments in District 14 with at least one sale in the past five years. Of these, 178 are freehold. In the 12 months to September 2026 there were 615 resales, and the freehold developments made 268 of them, or 44%.
| Tenure and lease era | Developments with a resale | Resales | Share of resales | Resales per development |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Freehold or 999-year | 103 | 268 | 44% | 3 |
| 99-year, lease before 2000 | 4 | 44 | 7% | 11 |
| 99-year, lease 2000 to 2014 | 10 | 160 | 26% | 16 |

Calculated from URA's caveat records.
That is about three resales for each freehold development that had one, against 36 for each of the four 99-year developments with leases from 2015. Eighteen developments on 99-year leases made 347 resales, 56% of the district's total.

| One | 42 | 0 |

Developments with at least one sale of any type recorded from September 2021. Resales counted from October 2025 to September 2026. Calculated.
Of the 178 freehold developments, 75 had no resale in the 12 months and 42 had exactly one. Only 14 had five or more. Among the 20 developments on 99-year leases, 13 had five or more.
Over the whole five years the picture is similar. The median freehold development had 6 resales from September 2021 to September 2026, and 79 of the 178 had five or fewer. For the 20 developments on 99-year leases the median was more than 40.
Is there another sale in the same development to go by?
For each resale in the 12 months, the records can be searched for any other sale in the same development in the same month or the 12 months before it.
| Group | Resales | No other sale in the development | None in the same size band |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freehold | 268 | 36 (13%) | 86 (32%) |
| 99-year | 347 | 1 (under 1%) | 7 (2%) |

For each resale in the 12 months to September 2026: whether URA recorded any other sale in the same development in the same month or the 12 months before it, and whether any of those was in the same size band. Calculated.
For 32% of freehold resales, 86 of 268, there was no other sale in the same development and size band over that time. For 13% there was no other sale in the development at all. Among the 99-year resales the figures were 2% and one resale.
A wider range across developments
With few sales in a development, the comparison has to come from other developments, and across developments the range is wider.
| Homes | Resales | Middle half, per sq ft | Width |
|---|---|---|---|
| Freehold, under 500 sq ft | 61 in 35 developments | $1,545 to $1,746 | 13% |
| Freehold, 500 to 799 sq ft | 55 in 30 developments | $1,497 to $1,744 | 16% |
| Freehold, 800 to 1,199 sq ft | 90 in 52 developments | $1,299 to $1,707 | 31% |
| Freehold, 1,200 to 1,599 sq ft | 42 in 23 developments | $1,318 to $1,715 | 30% |
| Freehold, 1,600 sq ft and over | 20 in 10 developments | $1,156 to $1,494 | 29% |
| Parc Esta, 500 to 799 sq ft | 47 in one development | $2,215 to $2,385 | 8% |
| Sims Urban Oasis, 500 to 799 sq ft | 27 in one development | $1,874 to $1,922 | 3% |
| euHabitat, 500 to 799 sq ft | 25 in one development | $1,381 to $1,448 | 5% |

Middle half: a quarter of resales were below the lower figure and a quarter above the higher one. Width: how far the higher figure is above the lower. Calculated.
Among freehold resales of 800 to 1,199 sq ft, the middle half sold for $1,299 to $1,707 per square foot, the higher figure 31% above the lower. Those 90 resales came from 52 developments. Inside a single development with many resales the range was much narrower: at 500 to 799 sq ft, 3% in Sims Urban Oasis, 5% in euHabitat and 8% in Parc Esta, against 16% for freehold homes in that band across 30 developments.
The numbered lorongs and other streets
The freehold resales divide into two parts by street: 115 were on the numbered Geylang lorongs, in 50 developments, and 153 were on other streets, in 53 developments.
| Size (sq ft) | Numbered Geylang lorongs | Other streets | Lorongs lower by |
|---|---|---|---|
| under 500 | $1,599 (31 in 18) | $1,678 (30 in 17) | 5% |
| 500 to 799 | $1,570 (23 in 14) | $1,638 (32 in 16) | 4% |
| 800 to 1,199 | $1,299 (39 in 23) | $1,628 (51 in 29) | 20% |
| 1,200 to 1,599 | $1,333 (15 in 10) | $1,429 (27 in 13) | 7% |
| 1,600 and over | $995 (7 in 5) | $1,406 (13 in 5) | 29% |

Median resale price per square foot, with resales and developments in brackets. Numbered lorongs: streets URA records as Lorong followed by a number and Geylang. Calculated.
For homes under 800 sq ft the two were close: the median on the numbered lorongs was 5% and 4% lower in the two bands. At 800 to 1,199 sq ft it was 20% lower, $1,299 against $1,628 per square foot. The direction of that gap is firmer than its size. Nine of the 51 resales on other streets were in one development, and without it the gap is 17%. At 1,600 sq ft and over the median on the lorongs was 29% lower, but that row is thin: 7 resales against 13, seven of the 13 in one development, and homes of very different sizes, a median of 1,765 sq ft against 2,476 sq ft.
The two groups also differ in URA's market segment. All the resales on the numbered lorongs were in the Rest of Central Region; of the 51 resales of 800 to 1,199 sq ft on other streets, 31 were in the Outside Central Region. The segment does not account for the gap: the lorong median was 24% below the 20 other-street resales in the Rest of Central Region and 17% below the 31 in the Outside Central Region. The records do not say why the medians differ. They give no age for a freehold development, and the homes compared may differ in age, condition and layout as well as street.
What the records support
In District 14 over these 12 months, most freehold developments had too few resales to show a price level of their own, and 32% of freehold resales had no recent sale in the same development and size band beside them. Thirteen of the 20 developments on 99-year leases had five or more resales.
Nothing here measures what any one home is worth. It shows how much evidence the sale records hold, development by development.
