The median block in Tampines averages $6,659 per square metre. The five cheapest sit 23% below that line; the five dearest, 58% above it. That is the same town, the same transport network and, in many cases, blocks within walking distance of each other.
The pattern is rarely random. The cheapest blocks are usually the oldest, furthest from an MRT entrance, or made up of smaller units that carry a lower absolute price and a lower per-square-metre rate. The priciest are newer, taller, or sit on the edge of a transport node.
Lease explains part of it: the five cheapest blocks average 61 years remaining against 88 years for the five dearest. The rest is location and stock — the cheapest end of Tampines is dominated by Tampines Street 22.
Reading a block average honestly
- Six sales is a thin sample; one renovated high-floor unit can move a block average noticeably.
- A block average mixes flat types, so a block of mostly five-room flats will look expensive per square metre.
- Lease remaining is shown because it moves price independently of everything else.
