  "account": "A resale five-room Design, Build and Sell Scheme (DBSS) flat in Bishan recently sold for S$1.71 million, breaking the previous record resale price for this flat type in the area. The 1,292 sq ft unit located on the 37th to 39th floors at Block 273A, Bishan Street 24, fetched the high price of S$1,324 per square foot. This was higher than the previous record of S$1.63 million for a similar flat in Block 275A in November 2025. The Natura Loft, where the flat is situated, is the only DBSS project in Bishan with 480 units in total. With more than 83 years remaining on its lease, the high resale price may be attributed to the limited number of four-room and five-room flats entering the Bishan market. According to the Ministry of National Development's parliamentary reply, only about 6 percent of resale flats fetched over S$1 million in 2025.",
  "summary": "A similar unit located between 31 and 33 floors was sold for S$1.6 million in September 2026.",
