Hong Kong’s real estate buyers take a breather, ending the three-week sales rally at Road King’s South Land project
In Wong Chuk Hang on the southern corner of Hong Kong Island, Road King sold 22 of the 106 flats on offer at its South Land project
In Tuen Mun, Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP) managed to find buyers for 13 flats out of the 82 on offer at the second phase of Regency Bay
Hong
Kong’s property buyers took a break over the weekend, shrugging aside
most of the 188 apartments on offer at two locations, as their demand
had been sated by a string of property releases.
In
Wong Chuk Hang near Aberdeen on the southern corner of Hong Kong
Island, Road King Infrastructure Limited sold 22 of the 106 flats on
offer at its South Land project.
In Tuen Mun, Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP) managed to find buyers for
13 flats out of the 82 on offer at the second phase of its Regency Bay development.
The dismal showing at South Land,
in stark contrast to its three previous sell-out weekends, had a more
benign explanation: the most sought-after apartments comprising three,
and four bedrooms, had sold out, leaving only the less popular studios
and single-room flats, property agent said.
“The
remaining units, most of which are studios and one-room flats, did not
appear to be well received by investors,” the agent said, adding that
the overall marker remains strong. “The weak sales were not a surprise.”
Hong
Kong’s first-quarter economy expanded at a faster-than-expected 7.9 per
cent, the fastest quarterly pace in 11 years, beating economists’
forecasts and bolstering investors’ confidence in the city’s property
market.
Home
prices have also benefited from rising vaccination rates that helped
authorities keep Covid-19 under control. Cheap money unleashed by global
banks emerged to be another driving force for the local home market as
property assets became people’s new darlings battered by worries of
higher inflation.
The
number of new homes sold in Hong Kong from January 1 to May 19
increased to 6,350 units, 19 per cent higher than the same period in
2020, according to the Hong Kong Economic Times, which projected that first-half sales would rise 30 per cent to 9,000 flats.
The weekend’s sale at South Land was
the developer’s fourth round of sales. The project, jointly developed
by Road King, Ping An Insurance and the MTR Corporation, was the first
residential development atop a public transport terminal in nearly three
decades.
The
project began selling on May 1, with all 240 flats going on the first
day. The second batch of 180 also sold out a week later.
The
106 units on offer on May 22 range from 368 sq ft to 965 sq ft with
prices starting from HK$11.83 million (US$1.52 million) to HK$41.97
million. Road King offered up to 18 per cent discount on the remaining
flats, following brisk sales of the units that were snapped up by
investors in the previous weeks.
SHKP offered the 82 units at Regency Bay II
in Tuen Mun for on a “first-come, first-served” basis. Apartments on
offer ranged from 299 sq ft to 501 sq ft, with discounted prices of
HK$5.79 million to HK$11.07 million each, or HK$18,002 to HK$22,103 per
sq foot.

粉嶺地招標市值約20億
政府推地步伐未見放緩，下周推出粉嶺粉錦公路與青山公路－古洞段交界地皮招標，為年內推出的第二幅古洞區地皮，市場將調高地皮估值、至約18.5億至20.7億，樓面呎價約6500至7300元，料將吸引本地中大型發展商參與競投。
料中大型發展商競投
地政總署公布，該地面積約47362方呎，以地積比率6倍計，可建約28.4萬方呎，於6月25日截標。政府銳意拓展新界東北，當中古洞北新發展區內首幅住宅地，於上月底以高價約86億，樓面呎價7183元成交，反映區內發展潛力，令是次招標地皮估值亦水漲船高。
有測量師表示，儘管是次地皮位置相對上次招標的較遠離鐵路站，環境還是十分良好，而且古洞區有其發展潛力，預料樓面呎價達7300元水平，總值約20.7億，續吸引本港的大型地產商。
