Building medians over the same 12 months
Buildings with the highest median price per sq ft come first.
Source: Land Department open data, 5 Oct 2026. Highest median price per sq ft first, not a quality or return rank. Each building needs at least 10 registered sales in its current 12-month window. At least five buildings in this registry area must qualify. Ties use the building page identifier. The medians cover different homes, so their mix can affect the order. Window: 6 Oct 2025 to 5 Oct 2026.

Method: this area first, then the four areas closest in registered median price per sq ft, with ties ordered by page identifier. These are price comparisons, not nearby areas or recommendations. Each area needs at least 20 sales in both annual windows; the comparison is withheld if four eligible peers are unavailable. Medians cover different homes and off-plan shares; the annual change is not identical-home appreciation.
The publisher-provided yield is before costs and applies only to two-bedroom apartments in the named rental community, not the whole registry area or an individual building. We use the largest community in the available rental records and require at least 100 recorded contracts and a publisher sample of 30 sales for this layout, a separate local check with no building exceeding half its layout's sales, and yield no higher than 9%. Missing samples stay unavailable; we do not combine community medians or recalculate the publisher's yield.
Rental register snapshot: 22 Oct 2026. Individual rent, publisher sale-sample and matched-price observation windows are unavailable, so the exact annual sales dates above do not describe the yield's observation period. Only the separate local building-concentration check covers 6 Oct 2025 to 5 Oct 2026. The shown publisher sample is not a verified denominator for the publisher's yield.
