Singapore's new private residential market recorded a recovery in September 2026, with developers selling 296 units excluding Executive Condominiums (ECs), representing a 93.5% increase from the 153 units sold in August. Sales were also 16.1% higher than the 255 units recorded in September 2025.

The improvement followed a relatively quiet August, when market activity was affected by the absence of major new launches and the Hungry Ghost Festival. Despite limited fresh project inventory in September, transactions improved across all three market segments, reflecting continued buyer interest.

The Rest of Central Region (RCR) accounted for the largest share of developer sales, with 131 units sold, representing 44.3% of the total. The Outside Central Region (OCR) followed closely with 125 units, or 42.2%, while the Core Central Region (CCR) contributed 40 units, equivalent to 13.5%.

Collectively, the RCR and OCR accounted for 86.5% of new private home sales, highlighting the continued importance of these two market segments in supporting transaction activity.

Terra Hill emerged as September's bestselling development, recording 32 transactions at a median price of $2,209 psf. This was followed by The Sen with 25 units sold at $2,386 psf.

Newly launched Amberwood at Holland recorded 24 sales at a median price of $3,021 psf, despite only a portion of its units being released during its initial launch.

Other developments, including Lentor Gardens Residences and Dunearn House, continued to register transactions following their July launches, demonstrating that buyer interest extended beyond initial launch weekends.

The anticipated improvement in fourth quarter activity should provide a more positive conclusion to the year, reinforcing the importance of project availability, location and pricing in shaping buyer demand.
