Table of contents
Transaction count shows activity
More transactions can improve price discovery because buyers and advisors can compare recent evidence. Low volume needs more careful review.
Median price is not a final valuation
Median prices help with comparison but the exact unit view, floor, size, condition, layout, payment plan, and handover timing can change the fair price.
Price per sqft helps compare sizes
Price per sqft is useful for comparing different units, but it should be read with property type, building quality, furnishing, service charges, and location.
