Thinking of selling your Lentor unit?
Send me your project, unit and purchase price. I'll show you your paper gain, any seller's stamp duty, and who is buying now.
WhatsApp James →Lentor launch buyers are sitting on paper gains. Whether they keep them depends on when they sell, who else is selling at the same time, and the seller's stamp duty clock.
Lentor resale prices have moved up since the 2022 launches, so many launch buyers have paper gains. Before selling, check your seller's stamp duty position, net proceeds after costs and CPF refund, and how many other owners in your project are listing at the same time.
Start with Part 1: renting out your Lentor unit, or see Part 3: renting a home in Lentor.

Your Paper Gain: What Your Unit Is Worth in April 2026
+ Lentor Modern's Live Resale Track Record, By the Numbers →− Collapse
Lentor Modern is the only development with a live resale track record. Based on transaction data in the last 12 months, sale prices average $2,382 psf. Against a launch average of approximately $2,100 psf. That is approximately a 13 to 14% gain from the launch cohort within 3 to 4 years, before transaction costs. For the other Lentor condos, resale activity is beginning to emerge but data is thin. Estimates below are based on launch PSF and comparable OCR corridor movement.
| Development | Launch Avg PSF | Current Market PSF | Est. Gain (2BR 700sqft) | SSD-Free From | Sell Signal |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lentor Modern (TOPped 2025) | ~$2,100 avg | $2,147 to $2,582, avg $2,382 | ~+$196K paper gain | Sep 2024 (3yr from 2021) | SSD-free for most 2021/22 buyers |
| Lentor Hills Residences (TOP Dec 2026) | ~$2,080 avg | $1,918 to $2,513 emerging | ~+$50K to $300K depending on unit | Apr 2025 (3yr from Apr 2022) | SSD-free for most: time the exit |
| Lentoria (TOPped 2027) | ~$2,100 avg | $2,205 to $2,670 | ~+$73K to $400K | Mar 2027 (3yr from Mar 2024) | Near SSD-free window: wait for it |
| Hillock Green | ~$1,994 avg | ~$2,000 to $2,200 est. | ~Breakeven to small gain | Nov 2026 (3yr from Nov 2023) | Consider holding: corridor still maturing |
| Lentor Mansion | $2,257 avg | New: limited resale data | TBC: TOPs 2028 | Mar 2027 (3yr from Mar 2024) | Do not sell: SSD risk until 2027 |
Part 2, The Seller Decision Framework
✅ Sell Now If…
- You are SSD-free (3+ years from purchase). Confirm your exact date
- You bought Lentor Modern early (2021/22 launch) with a gain of $100K to $300K+ and want to redeploy into a fresher lease or different opportunity
- You need capital for an upgrade. Sell Lentor and upsize, or redirect equity into CCR or a new EC launch
- Your unit is a 1-bedroom. Thin resale and rental market; best to exit into the current demand
- You want to exit before the 2027 to 2028 supply wave of TOPs (Hillock Green, Lentoria, Lentor Mansion) increases competitive listings
⏸️ Hold or Rent If…
- You are within SSD period. Selling now means paying 4 to 12% stamp duty on a unit that is appreciating
- You own Lentoria. Your SSD-free window opens March 2027, which also aligns with the precinct maturing. Exit after that.
- Your unit is a 3-bedroom or 4-bedroom with CHIJ SNGS within 1km. This is the family tenant sweet spot; rent delivers better near-term return than a thin resale market
- Lentor Mansion and Lentor Central Residences haven't TOPped yet (2028). A 2028 sell into a more developed neighbourhood will likely be stronger
Lentor is a precinct story, not a single-building story. Selling any Lentor unit in isolation means competing against 2,954 units of new private supply in the same micro-market. All launched within 3 years, all within walking distance of the same MRT. The sellers who will get the best prices are those who exit after the area has developed its identity and before the next wave of completions compresses the field. For Lentor Modern, that window is now to early 2027, before Hillock Green and Lentoria's resale inventory builds. For the 2023/2024 launches, patience until 2028 to 2029 when the precinct is fully built out and mature is likely to deliver meaningfully better results.
