The transaction price for Gaepo Raemian Forest was approximately 125.86 million KRW per pyeong, significantly higher than the average Seoul apartment price of 38.613 million KRW per pyeong reported by real estate research firm Real Today last year. Following this, Mok-dong Sin-sigaji 2 traded at approximately 82.39 million KRW per pyeong, and Jamsil El's traded at approximately 103.12 million KRW per pyeong, both recording high transaction prices.

Real estate experts analyzed, "Gaepo Raemian Forest traded at a high price due to factors such as its proximity to the prestigious Gangnam School District 8 and the Daechi-dong academy district, as well as transportation benefits like the extension of the Shinbundang Line.”

Mok-dong Sin-sigaji 2 is evaluated to have sold for 3.55 billion KRW due to the premium of its elite school district and increased demand for large-sized units following the recent selection of a reconstruction architect, which accelerated the project. While Jamsil El's traded for 3.37 billion KRW, driven by the preference for "one solid home" amid discussions on remodeling and its location along the Han River, Triseum's 3.2 billion KRW sale was supported by its double-station accessibility to Jamsil Station and proximity to the academy district.

Top-tier properties this week were dominated by large brand complexes in the Gangnam/Songpa areas and complexes expecting reconstruction in the Mok-dong area. Experts noted that a clear preference for locations with excellent school districts and transportation infrastructure, alongside the polarization of the housing market, was evident.
