Blk 40 Sims Dr flats for sale, against recent transactions

No flat here is asking below recent resales of similar-sized flats in this block. We could compare one flat on sale.

We compare each flat on sale with recent sales of similar-sized flats in the same block. A size only counts if there have been at least five sales of it. We don’t compare floors, so a flat lower down can look cheaper than it is.

A figure marked “prior 12 mo” is the median of the 12 months before that, shown because no flat of this type sold in that block in the last 12 months, so it is not a price today.
