Where Towns Are Pulling Apart

Biggest movers by median, latest three months versus the prior three (a smoother read than a single month). Town medians shift with the MIX of flats sold each month, so treat these as directional, not a per-flat price change.

Methodology & How to Cite This

The CheckHowMuch HDB Resale Index reports movement for a complete month only. The current in-progress month is excluded because HDB registers resale transactions with a lag, so its volume is still filling in. A month is treated as complete when its transaction count is within normal range of the preceding six months.

Median, month on month, year on year: the median of all resale prices recorded in a month, compared to the prior month and, on a three-month trailing basis, to a year earlier. The three-month basis is used for the year-on-year figure because it is far less sensitive to the mix of flats sold in any single month.
Flat streak: a month is called flat when the median moves less than 1.5% from the prior month. November is the second straight month of sub-1.5% movement.
Town movers: each town's median over the latest three months versus the prior three months, shown only where at least 60 sales occurred in each window. Town medians move with the mix of flats sold, so these are directional.
New $1M blocks: blocks recording their first-ever resale above $1 million during the month.
