RCR vs CCR vs OCR: 2026 New Launch Quantum (2BR) πŸ“Š

The graph above shows a decade of quantum trends and here's what the data reveals:

RCR demonstrates remarkable consistency. From $1.11M in 2016 to $2.17M in 2026 ⬆️, the trajectory has been almost exclusively upward with minimal volatility across the entire decade.

CCR shows extreme price swings. The region moved from $1.72M to a peak of $2.72M ⬆️, then dropped back to $2.14M ⬇️.

OCR maintains steady, reliable growth. Starting at $917K in 2016 and climbing to $1.58M by 2026, OCR delivered 72% growth ⬆️through consistent appreciation.

Hopefully, this can help you choose your region more strategically.

❌ No MRT nearby
❌ No good schools
❌ Over 1,400 units (oversupply fears in 2018)

And yet...

On 5th July 2018 at 5pm, the government dropped cooling measures.

Two hours later, the Riverfront Residences showflat opened.

By midnight, 270 buyers had signed contracts, racing the clock to lock in old rules.

Same red flags. Different perspective.

What did they see that "experts" missed?
1. Price positioned below OCR average (especially 1br to 3br units)
2. Buyers were local to District 19 (Sengkang/Punggol, MRT less critical)
3. The discount was attractive enough to overlook schools and size

You'll see the data comparison in this video, the launch quantum gap is significant.

Today, Riverfront ranks #93 in our Top 100 Most Profitable Condos analysis.

The research shows: You don't have to tick every box, as long as the price compensates.

This is why we built the Contrarian Checklist, a framework for evaluating "red flag" properties that might actually be opportunities.

Notice something surprising? πŸ‘€
OCR 2BR PSF: $970 β†’ $1,625 (+67.5%)
OCR 2BR Quantum: $917K β†’ $1.32M (+44.1%)
Same 10-year period. Different growth rates.
Here's what most people miss:
PSF grew FASTER than quantumβ€”meaning the average 2BR is getting smaller, but appreciation per square foot is accelerating.
Look at 2020-2023:
PSF: $1,109 β†’ $1,452 (+31%)
Quantum: $976K β†’ $1.18M (+21%)
The gap widened POST-pandemic.
My take: Developers are building more compact 2BRs to keep quantum "affordable," but PSF keeps climbing. If you're buying for investment, PSF matters. If you're buying to live, quantum is your reality.

A 99 year condo in Tanjong Rhu just outperformed expectations.

Water Place
District 15 Β· 437 units

Prices were flat for 8 years.

Then MRT access, Kallang Transformation and a GLS land sale at 1,455 psf ppr changed the trajectory.

Values climbed nearly 60% in five years.

But here’s the key insight.

In 2025, 3 bedders were most transacted.
Yet 2 bedders delivered stronger annualized gains.

Volume does not equal performance.

Is Water Place still undervalued in District 15?

**Here's what S$2.749M actually gets you at brand new Tembusu Grand.**

**And why I believe Tanjong Katong is Singapore's most undervalued district right now.**

The Property:

β†’ 3BR + study

β†’ 2 full baths

β†’ Heritage Katong views

β†’ Smart home ready

β†’ Move-in condition (zero reno needed)

The Location Data:

β†’ 1.2km to Tanjong Katong MRT (walkable)

β†’ 1km to TK Primary (school zone advantage)

β†’ 15min CBD | 12min Changi

The Investment Thesis:

If you're a fan of data, this caught my attention:

Tanjong Katong today = Tiong Bahru 8 years ago (before the surge).

The fundamentals are stacking:

βœ“ Heritage district momentum

βœ“ MRT connectivity (Thomson Line)

βœ“ Parkway Parade S$700M revamp

βœ“ Limited new supply

βœ“ Still under S$2.8M

Our research shows districts with these indicators typically see 20-30% appreciation within 3-5 years post-MRT completion.

My Take:

You're not just buying a condoβ€”you're positioning in what could be Singapore's next premium heritage district, before the market reprices it.

If you're evaluating your next move, this might be worth a look.

Two types of 99-year buyers in D15/D16 πŸ‘‡

β†’ Long-term stayer: Older 99-year = better value for money
β†’ Need flexibility: Newer 99-year = easier future exit

The data supports both paths.
The question is β€” which one matches YOUR plan?

Most people skip this step.
Then wonder why the property doesn't perform.

Save this before your next property conversation. πŸ”– Or reach out β€” happy to help you figure out which path fits your plan. πŸ’¬

Most Singapore property buyers focus on what to buy.

Almost nobody asks β€” who will buy it back from you? That's the gap that costs people the most.

After analyzing 10,000+ transactions across the Singapore private property market, we built the Exit Strategy Framework around 3 data points:
πŸ“Š Demand Score
Average profitability per annum β€” because it apple-to-apples different unit sizes and holding periods. The clearest signal of real demand for a specific area or unit type.

πŸ“‰ Supply Score
Current units for sale vs. total units built.
The lower the ratio, the stronger your exit position.

🎯 Gap Score
Transaction gaps that reveal sweet spots most buyers in the Singapore market overlook.

The result? An Exit Score β€” a data-backed way to evaluate profit potential before you commit.

If you're planning your next property move in Singapore, hopefully this gives you a clearer lens to work with. πŸ’‘

552 transactions analyzed. The data surprised me.

Older 99-year leasehold properties at lower entry prices are outperforming newer launches in the same districts.

Seaside Residences vs its older neighbors:

β†’ Laguna Green
β†’ Bayshore Park
β†’ Mandarin Gardens

All delivering better returns.

The lease decay myth? The numbers don't support it.

The catch: longer selling times due to higher supply.

But if you're focused on returns, the data is clear.
