I will be interested to see what these apartments actually sell for.  On a price-per-square metre basis, most of these are cheaper than a number of apartments currently in off-the-plan sales.

Capital Growth is only for apartments that were sold in 2007.  The median hold period includes time held from original off-the-plan contract date to sale.
