Serangoon 5-room HDB resale prices

How Serangoon compares

Of the 26 towns with at least 20 5-room resales in this period, Serangoon had the 12th highest median 5-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.

5-room flats made up 18% of Serangoon's 387 resales in this period. Their S$830,000 median sits 24% above the town's all-type median of S$670,000, and 2% above the typical 5-room median across towns with a page for this flat type (S$810,000). Nationally, 24,657 flats of all types changed hands, with a median of S$630,000.

Which 5-room flats sell in Serangoon

Almost every 5-room flat sold here was HDB's Improved model: 69 sales, or 100% of the recorded total, at a median of S$830,000. With one model dominating, differences between sales come down more to storey, lease and condition than to layout.

Prices by quarter

The median moved from S$810,000 in Oct–Dec 2025 to S$841,500 in Jul–Sep 2026, a change of +3.9%. Each quarter has a different mix of blocks, so this is not a like-for-like price index.

Sales were busiest in Jul 2026 (11 registered) and quietest in Dec 2025 (2). The last three months of the period recorded 26 sales against 11 in the first three (+136%). 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 Serangoon 5-room resales was 60-79 years left: 51 sales, or about 74% of this flat type’s recorded transactions, with a median of S$830,000. If your flat has a different remaining lease, start with its own band instead of applying the town-wide median.

When Serangoon's 5-room blocks were built

The leases on these flats began between the 1980s and the 1990s. Blocks from the 1980s supplied 52% of sales at a median of S$899,000 and the 1990s blocks (33 sales) S$818,000. 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 Serangoon 5-room sales sat between S$720,000 and S$1,000,000, a spread of S$280,000. These are the 10th and 90th percentiles, not the lowest and highest sale prices. The typical floor area in this sample was 121 square metres. Compare that with your layout and size before treating a neighbouring sale as a match.

Half of these flats measured 121-122 square metres. Over 122 sqm flats (14 sales) had a median of S$771,500, against S$860,000 for under 121 sqm (11 sales). Bigger did not mean dearer here: the larger 5-room flats in Serangoon tend to sit in older blocks, so remaining lease and location outweighed floor area in this sample.

Selling a 5-room flat in Serangoon: the agent fee

On the median 5-room price of S$830,000, an illustrative 2% commission with GST comes to S$18,094. The Fairnest seller package is a fixed S$2,178.91 incl. GST, payable only when the sale completes.
