Announcement: Starting from January 2023 (for December 2022 reports onwards), 99-SRX will be changing the schedule for the following reports:
As government agencies such as HDB and URA have improved in its transparency and timelines in making property transactions public, 99-SRX will also follow their lead in using only publicly-available transactions for our reports. This also ensures transparency and reproducibility by parties seeking to clarify 99-SRX's indexes.
Hence, there will also be differences in all reports index values due to a shift to official data sources:
HDB Resale
i. Agency transactions will no longer be used in Price and Index calculations starting from January 2023.
NLP Resale
i. Non-caveated transactions will no longer be used in Volume, Price and Index calculations starting from December 2022's NLP Resale report. Only caveated transactions will be used.
Rental
i. Agency transactions will no longer be used in Volume, Price and Index calculations starting from December 2022's NLP and HDB Rental report.
ii. Base index shift from January 2009 to January 2015.
These changes do not affect the broad price trends observed in earlier reports. If you wish to retrieve the previous indexes, send an email to [email protected]
