Sources & methodology

Methodology & Sources

Figures below are drawn from October 2025 BTO and revised one-time.

HDB resale and rental data from data.gov.sg.

  • HDB project list and indicative pricing sourced from HDB press releases for the October 2025 BTO launch.
  • Nearby resale comparison uses HDB resale transactions in SEMBAWANG over the last 12 months (averaged price ÷ midpoint floor area, converted to PSF).
  • Ballot odds precedent aggregates final subscription rates from past BTO launches in SEMBAWANG under the Standard tier; median is reported with sample-size.
  • Walkability score from ShiokNest WalkabilityService (DB-based: MRT + schools); OneMap amenities fetched on enrichment.

We report medians (not means) so a single outlier transaction cannot skew district-level figures. PSF = price per square foot.
