There is an increase quarterly on the price of land homes and non-landed homes. Particularly, in the second quarter, about 3.8 per cent rise in the prices of landed homes, followed by a 3.3 per cent increase for non-landed homes. During the second quarter, prices in the city-fringe or Rest of Central Region (RCR) jumped the most - by 5.7 per cent followed by a 2.9 per cent rise in the suburban or Outside Central Region (OCR), and a 1.4 per cent increase in the Core Central Region (CCR), in the non-landed segment.

Non-landed home prices in the CCR, RCR and OCR had risen by 5.5 per cent, 1.2 per cent and 5.6 per cent, respectively, in the preceding quarter (Q1).

Till mid-June, based on transaction prices given in contracts submitted for stamp duty payment and data on units sold by developers, the flash estimates are compiled. In addition, when the URA releases its full set of real estate statistics for the second quarter, on July 27, the data will be updated.
