HDB, Resale flat prices based on registration date from Jan-2017 onwards, data.gov.sg, retrieved 1 Sep 2026. Bukit Timah counts, medians, averages, $1m+ tally, street counts, lease buckets, and the highest print above are calculated from this file.

Not used, on purpose: aggregator “average PSF” pages, guessed rental yields, guessed MRT price-uplift %. If a figure is not in the HDB file, it is unknown.

This is a market note, not a CMA and not financial advice. Resale prices are what two parties agreed, for that block, floor, lease and condition.
