How is this worked out? — the five sub-scores
Yield
Gross rental yield, scored across a 2.0–4.5% band.
Cashflow
Estimated net monthly cash at 75% LTV and today’s floating rate, rented out.
Liquidity
Project size plus sales & rental volume — how easily you could exit.
Growth
URA growth-node, MRT proximity and recent price momentum.
Family
A popular (oversubscribed) primary school within 1 km.
Overall
The average of the five sub-scores (each 0–100, higher = better).
Risk flags
Small project — 20 units, thinner resale & rental liquidity · Thin transactions — 1 sales in 12 months, so the price signal is noisy · Limited rental data — 3 rental contracts, so the yield estimate is soft
Note: risk flags are screening signals from the data — not confirmed defects; check each against the actual unit, title & MCST.
A screening heuristic — not financial advice; verify every figure and your own budget before transacting.
Investor verdict

Garden Apartments is a freehold project in D10 Tanglin with 2.8% gross yield, thin liquidity and strong school demand (Singapore Chinese Girls' Primary School within 1 km). It sits in no designated growth node.

Best suited for
  • Family demand buyers
Less suited for
  • pure rental-yield investors
  • capital-growth-led investors
Key due-diligence
  • Confirm the exact unit stack, facing and floor — our figures are project medians.
  • Stress-test cashflow at +1–2% interest in the calculator below.
  • Verify the school 1 km boundary & current MOE rules — priority is not a guarantee.

Investment report

A plain-language read on Garden Apartments — genuine strengths, honest risks, an independent fair-value range and a Buy / Watch / Avoid position, all from the data above.

Why this may work
  • Oversubscribed primary school (Singapore Chinese Girls' Primary School) within 1 km — a durable family-demand anchor.
  • Freehold — no lease decay, so strong long-horizon holding power.
Why this may fail / what to watch
  • Thin liquidity (1 sale/12 mo · 20-unit project) — a slower, choppier exit and a softer price signal.
  • Check nearby new-launch & upcoming TOP supply — a fresh project within walking distance can cap rents and resale for a few years.

Fair-value range

Several independent value bases — more informative than a single median. The combined range weights the project-specific bases most.

Recent project median $psfexcludes ground & top-floor units$2,232 psf
D10 district-comparablemedian $psf of all projects in the district$2,176 psf
Rental-yield-supportedrent $psf × 12 ÷ 3.0% target gross yield$1,928 psf
HomeVestor fair range$1,945–$2,249 psf

How is this worked out? — the value bases & combined range
Project median
Recency-filtered median $psf of this project’s own resale caveats (ground & top-floor units excluded).
Same-size comps
Recency-weighted median $psf of caveats within ±25% of the typical unit size (6-mo full, 6–12-mo 70%, 12–24-mo 40%) — the comparable-sales method used in our Valuation tool.
District-comparable
Median $psf across all projects in the same district — a market-level sanity check (a genuinely superior project can sit above it).
Yield-supported
The $psf at which today’s median rent would return a 3.0% target gross yield for a CCR project — anchors price to rental fundamentals.
Combined range
A weighted blend (comps 28%, yield 28%, project median 22%, district 22%); the band width (±5–13%) reflects how far the independent bases disagree, so a genuinely over- or under-priced project sits outside it.

Buy · Watch · Avoid

Where the project’s current median $psf sits against its fair range, overlaid with the risk signals. An educational classification — not a recommendation.

BUY — below fair
WATCH — around fair
AVOID — above fair
Watch zoneCurrent median $2,232 psf is around fair value — whether it’s a good buy comes down to the specific unit and price.
