How to read this page
The median is the middle sale when every recorded sale here is lined up cheapest to dearest — half sold for less, half for more. The band (p25–p75) is the middle half of those sales. Neither figure is an asking price from an ad, and neither is a valuation of a specific unit. Asking vs transacted.
What kind of home, and what title
The land office groups these sales as high-rise (condo, apartment, flat) under a Freehold title. High-rise parcels are usually strata: you own the parcel plus a share of the common parts, and price per square foot is how buyers compare units of different sizes. Monthly charges and the sinking fund sit on top of the purchase price — see maintenance fee and sinking fund.
