HDB Resale Prices: What’s the Last Transacted Price in Your Block?

HDB Resale Prices: What’s the Last Transacted Price in Your Block?

When you decide to sell your HDB resale flat, one of the first things you’ll want to know is whether you can make a profit, and how much. The fastest way to gauge this is by checking the last transacted price in your block and the surrounding area.

As we wrote in this article, past transaction prices often set the benchmark for current and future home valuations within a particular block or area. These prices become part of the historical data that potential buyers, sellers, and valuers use to assess the market value of similar properties, which ultimately influences a property’s selling price.

Where can you find the last transacted price in your block?

We’ve developed HomerAI, which provides all the information you need to know about your property — from your home valuation to the latest property transaction within your block, cluster, and 1km of your home. You can also zoom into the lowest and highest transacted prices, with details such as the transaction date and unit size.

Case study: Last transacted price in your block

The last transacted price in Block 79E, Toa Payoh Central, was $990,000 for a 91 sqm (4-room) flat. Over the past six months, homes in this block have sold for an average price of $935,600 ($1,025 psf), with five transactions recorded.

The most recent sale in May 2025 saw a unit fetch $990,000 — matching the highest price recorded during this period. On the other end, the lowest transaction was in January 2025 at $850,000.

Case study: Last transacted price in your cluster

Beyond your block, notable transactions within this cluster of Toa Payoh Central reflect price variations across different floors and blocks:

  • Block 79B (Levels 37-39, 90 sqm): Sold for $1,080,000 in May 2025
  • Block 79B (Levels 10-12, 92 sqm): Sold for $965,800 in May 2025
  • Block 79D (Levels 01–03, 92 sqm): Sold for $870,000 in May 2025

Key Takeaway: Higher-floor units at Toa Payoh Central tend to fetch higher prices. For instance, a 90 sqm unit at 79B Toa Payoh Central on the 37–39 floor range sold for $1,080,000, significantly more than similar-sized lower-floor units in the same block. This price difference — up to $280,000 compared to a unit on the 1st to 3rd floor — suggests that elevation, likely due to better views, light, and ventilation, commands a premium. Other factors such as renovations, unit orientation, and proximity to amenities like Toa Payoh MRT or shopping malls may also contribute to the variance.

Case study: Last transacted price of properties within 1km of your home

The most recent transactions within 1km of Block 79E, Toa Payoh Central, show how floor level, remaining lease, and location significantly affect HDB resale prices. For instance, a 103 sqm unit at 248 Kim Keat Link sold for $673,000 in June 2025. Despite being the largest unit on the list, it has only 62 years of lease remaining and sits on a low-to-mid floor (07 to 09), which likely contributed to its lower price.

In contrast, smaller but newer flats within Toa Payoh Central with 83 years of lease left have transacted at much higher prices. A 90 sqm high-floor unit (Levels 37 to 39) at Block 79B fetched $1,080,000 — the highest among the recent sales. Meanwhile, similar-sized units on lower floors (Levels 01 to 03) in the same block were sold for as low as $870,000, showing a price gap of over $200,000 purely based on floor level.

A mid-floor unit at Block 79B (Levels 10 to 12) also transacted at $965,800, further reinforcing the trend that higher-floor homes command a clear premium.

These transactions highlight consistent buyer preference for high-floor units, likely due to better views, ventilation, and natural light. At the same time, lease tenure remains a major pricing factor, as seen in the stark contrast between the older Kim Keat Link unit and the newer Toa Payoh Central flats.

For homeowners considering selling, this data presents a strong case for high-floor units to command premium prices, particularly in mature estates like Toa Payoh. On the buyer’s side, mid-floor and lower-floor units may offer better value while still benefiting from the area’s prime location and amenities.
