Punggol was the #2 town in Singapore by resale volume in August (Tampines 229, Woodlands 184, Sengkang 174). That’s 7.6% of the island’s 2,521 registered resales.

Island backdrop (HDB flash, not town-level): resale prices −0.3% q-o-q in 2Q2026, second straight quarterly fall; island volume 6,268 in 2Q, −10.2% y-o-y.


What actually sold in Punggol (Aug 2026)

4-room is the liquid stock: 109 of 192 deals, median $675 psf (sqm × 10.7639). Busiest streets: Northshore Dr (41), Edgefield Plains (22), Punggol Dr (22), Punggol Walk (18), Punggol Ctrl (16).

Northshore is the young stock — 2021/2022 lease commence — not the same building as a 2013 loft on Punggol Field. Ask me for comps on your block.

Lease mix, August: 0 deals had under 60 years remaining; 31 had 60–79 years; 161 had 80+ years.


One deal worth knowing (not a price guide)

Town high this year is not an August deal. In February 2026, a 147 sqm 5-room Premium Apartment Loft at 306D Punggol Drive (16th–18th storey, 2012, 85 years 6 months left) registered at $1,470,000. Same figure is in HDB’s file.

August’s highest was $985,000 — 115 sqm 5-room Improved at 420B Northshore Drive (4th–6th, 2022, 94 years 6 months left). Next: $958,000 at 420A Northshore Drive (19th–21st). July still had three million-dollar registrations, including $1,288,000 for a 149 sqm loft at 268B Punggol Field.

If a seller quotes the $1.47m loft at you, that’s a loft, not a typical 4-room.


What to tell a client this week

Selling in Punggol. Volume is there — #2 town, 192 deals, almost unchanged from July. Do not price a 4-room off $1.47m. August 4-room median was $680,000, and the spread was $527k–$860k. Northshore Dr (41 deals) is not interchangeable with Edgefield or a loft on Punggol Field. August closed with no $1m registrations; the ceiling was a new Northshore 5-room at $985k.

Buying in Punggol. More stock than a year ago (192 vs 136). That is choice, not a crash: median is a shade above Aug 2025. Remaining lease is the easy part here — 161 of 192 August deals had 80+ years left, and none were under 60. Pay for the block and the floor, not a “Punggol average.”

If you advise on cover, not just keys. 192 Punggol households completed a resale last month. That is 192 moments to check fire insurance, mortgage protection, and whether the sum insured still matches the new price.
