Freehold vs leasehold in D09

Tenure matters most when buying or selling. Rentals still need project-level comps.

D09 has 171 freehold projects and 38 leasehold projects in our project records. For buyers, tenure should be part of the sale comparison because freehold projects can trade differently from newer leasehold projects with more facilities and cleaner recent comparables.

For renters, tenure is mostly background. Rent should still be judged by the exact project, unit size, condition, MRT access, schools and the latest rent data. Use tenure as a buying lens first, not as the main reason to pay more rent.

54 projects still need tenure added, so this mix will improve as we add more project facts.
