The statistics below provide the Median Cash-Over-Valuation (COV) for resale transactions of a particular flat type in a given town based on cases registered in the quarter. Cash-Over-Valuation (COV) is the difference between the resale price and the market value of the flat.
- COV is however not a requirement for HDB resale transactions. Resale transactions take place on a "willing buyer- willing seller" basis and the price is open to negotiation and mutually agreed between both parties.
- Depending on the outcome of the negotiation between the buyer and the seller, the resale price may be above, at or below the market valuation. For resale transactions where the resale price is at or below the market valuation of the flat, there is no need for buyer to pay any COV.
- Median COV is the COV amount at the 50th percentile where half the number of resale applications registered were transacted with COVs higher than the median and half with lower COVs (or no COV if the amount is negative or zero).
- Users who are searching for past individual resale transacted prices in specific locations (by town or street name) can refer to the "Resale Flat Prices" e-Service.
