Every Singapore new launch gets scored across five factors. We weight Value for Money at 40% because this is a Deal Score — we're measuring whether you're getting a good deal, not just whether it's a good building. A great location doesn't make an overpriced condo a good deal.
Every resale average on Ground Floor comes from one source: the URA Private Residential Transaction database, pulled via their official API twice a week (Wednesday and Saturday, after URA's Tuesday and Friday data updates).
We filter to modern stock only — condos with leases commencing 2010 or later, plus all freehold properties. This excludes dated 1990s and 2000s buildings that would drag down the district average and misrepresent the actual market a new launch buyer is comparing against.
The Premium is calculated as: (New Launch PSF − District Modern Resale PSF) ÷ District Modern Resale PSF × 100.
For districts with limited modern resale data (fewer than 20 transactions in the past 12 months), we flag this in the verdict. For districts with no private condo resale history — such as D24 (Tengah), Singapore's newest residential district — we benchmark against the weighted average of neighboring districts' modern stock as the closest proxy, and flag this clearly in the verdict.
This data updates automatically. No manual lookups. No cherry-picked comparables. One source, one method, applied consistently across every project we score.
We score each new launch independently by crunching publicly available data — URA caveats, GLS tender results, developer price lists, and resale transaction records. No developer relationships. No agent commissions.
