Resilient resale condo market activity in March
Sales momentum in the overall property market picked up in March, including the resale condo market. About 804 condo units worth $1.69 billion was resold during the month - compared with the 898 resale transactions valued at $1.87 billion transacted in February.
The pick-up in market activity could have been spurred by a flurry of new launches, which may have helped to stoke overall buying interest. In March, new sales transactions accounted for 61% of non-landed transactions, while resale transactions accounted for 37.6% of transactions, one of the lowest resale proportions since October 2025 (see Chart 1).

With new launch activity picking up during the month, the average unit price of new non-landed homes also trended up. The average new sales price grew by 3% month-on-month (MOM) to $2,796 psf in March, while the average resale unit price inched up by 0.7% MOM. As such, the new sale and resale price gap grew from 49.4% in February (see Chart 2), to 52.9% in March.

Improving gains amongst resale transactions
In terms of profitability, resale condo units transacted in March saw better gains compared with the previous month. Analysing the profits reaped by resale non-landed private homes in February 2026 and March 2026, it was found that resale condo deals in March garnered more profits. The proportion of loss-making transactions was lower in March 2026 over the previous month. The resale profit analysis involves computing gains achieved for the units by matching the condo resale transactions in February against their respective previous purchase price, according to caveats lodged.
The study showed that 17.6% of resale condo transactions (132 deals) in March made more than $1 million in profits, a higher proportion compared with February (14.9%). Of these million-dollar profit-making deals, the deals was well spread amongst the three market segments, 38% in the Outside Central Region (OCR), 32% in the Core Central Region (CCR) homes and 30% in the Rest of Central Region (RCR). Loss-making deals in March accounted for 5.7% of transactions, edging higher compared with the proportion of loss-making deals (3.9%) in February (see Chart 3).

The average profit was subsequently computed on a project basis. To minimise sampling errors, resale condominium projects that posted fewer than three transactions during the month are excluded from the study. Based on URA Realis caveat data analysed by PropNex Research, the most profitable condo in the CCR, was Duchess Crest in District 10, which pulled in an average profit of $1.51 million across three transactions in March. Duchess Crest was also the overall best performing project in terms of average profit quantum in March.
In the RCR, the most profitable condo development in March was The Interlace, a project located in District 4, which achieved an average profit of nearly $927,000, across three transactions. In the heartlands or Outside Central Region (OCR), the most profitable project was Hillview Heights in District 23 which garnered an average profit of nearly $1.28 million across three transactions.

^projects with fewer than 3 transactions in the month are excluded from this analysis
*Gains are derived from the resale transaction for each unit against the unit's last caveated transaction; the average profit is determined on the profits of all resale transactions in the development which occurred during the month. The profit reflected is gross - it has not accounted for the applicable seller's stamp duties, interest payable, taxes and other relevant divestment costs.
#Annualised Gains is the compounded annual rate of return which shows the rate of return over the time period between the point of resale and the property's last caveated transaction, expressed in annual percentage terms. The formula for determining this is simply: [(current resale price) / (purchase price)] time period in years-1
