Bishan 3-room HDB resale prices

How Bishan compares

Of the 25 towns with at least 20 3-room resales in this period, Bishan had the 5th highest median 3-room price. Town medians mix blocks of different ages and locations, so a comparison between towns is a starting point, not a price for your flat.

3-room flats made up 15% of Bishan's 410 resales in this period. Their S$530,000 median sits 37% below the town's all-type median of S$848,000, and 17% above the typical 3-room median across towns with a page for this flat type (S$452,500). Nationally, 24,657 flats of all types changed hands, with a median of S$630,000.

Which 3-room flats sell in Bishan

Bishan's 3-room stock is mixed. Simplified flats were the most traded (28 sales, 45%, median S$548,000), followed by New Generation (20 sales, median S$530,000), with Improved also recorded. The two largest models sold within S$18,000 of each other, so model matters less here than storey and lease.

Prices by quarter

The median moved from S$553,500 in Oct–Dec 2025 to S$495,888 in Jul–Sep 2026, a change of -10.4%. Each quarter has a different mix of blocks, so this is not a like-for-like price index.

Sales were busiest in Nov 2025 (9 registered) and quietest in Oct 2025 (2). The last three months of the period recorded 17 sales against 16 in the first three, a steady pace. Registration month lags the agreed sale by a few weeks, so these counts describe when deals completed, not when they were struck.

Prices by floor level

Floor level usually matters to buyers, but some bands below have too few sales to compare.

Prices by remaining lease

Remaining lease affects how much CPF and bank loan a buyer can use, which shapes how many buyers can afford an older flat. HDB records the lease left at the time of each sale.

The largest lease group for Bishan 3-room resales was under 60 years left: 49 sales, or about 79% of this flat type’s recorded transactions, with a median of S$512,888. If your flat has a different remaining lease, start with its own band instead of applying the town-wide median.

When Bishan's 3-room blocks were built

The leases on these flats began between the 1970s and the 1980s. Blocks from the 1980s supplied 77% of sales at a median of S$540,000, while the 1970s blocks (14 sales) had a median of S$368,000. A buyer's CPF and loan limits depend on the lease left, so the decade your block was built shapes who can afford it.

Using this range for your own flat

The middle 80% of Bishan 3-room sales sat between S$368,000 and S$578,000, a spread of S$210,000. These are the 10th and 90th percentiles, not the lowest and highest sale prices. The typical floor area in this sample was 65 square metres. Compare that with your layout and size before treating a neighbouring sale as a match.

Half of these flats measured around 65 square metres. Over 67 sqm flats (9 sales) had a median of S$368,000, against S$538,000 for 64-67 sqm (53 sales). Bigger did not mean dearer here: the larger 3-room flats in Bishan tend to sit in older blocks, so remaining lease and location outweighed floor area in this sample.

Selling a 3-room flat in Bishan: the agent fee

On the median 3-room price of S$530,000, an illustrative 2% commission with GST comes to S$11,554. The Fairnest seller package is a fixed S$2,178.91 incl. GST, payable only when the sale completes. That is an illustrative difference of S$9,375.09. Agency fees are negotiable and are not fixed by CEA.
