Hong Kong’s mass-housing rental market picks up as mainland Chinese students snap up even haunted flats
Some
mainland Chinese students returning for the new academic year next
month are closing deals after viewing flats online, agents say
Rents are likely to rise 10 per cent in this half due to demand from students, economic recovery and vaccinations, agents say
Activity
in Hong Kong’s mass-housing rental market is picking up thanks to
mainland Chinese students who are returning to the city after a gap of a
year, as universities resume classroom lectures next month.
Market
observers said that many of the mainland students will be arriving in
the city earlier than usual as they have to undergo 14 days of
quarantine and prepare for the new academic year, with many booking
flats after simply viewing only photos or videos.
Home
rents are likely to rise 10 per cent in this half because of the rise
in demand from mainland students, economic recovery and vaccinations,
property agent said.
“The
summer high season for leasing has begun,” the agent said. “The demand
in the leasing market will gradually increase, which is likely to drive
rents upwards and support property prices at the same time.”
The
city’s rental index has risen for four straight months in June,
according to the latest data from the Rating and Valuation Department.
The
view was echoed by analyst. The analyst said that rents have risen
along with the booming sales and prices in the property market in the
year’s first half.
Hong
Kong’s universities had 13,580 mainland students in the last academic
year, according to data from the University Grants Committee. Since not
all students can be accommodated in dormitories, many of them end up
renting private flats individually or in groups.
A
property agency in Tseung Kwan O struck 23 leases with mainland
students in 20 days last month. They made decisions remotely by viewing
photos and videos online, agent said. Tseung Kwan O is close to the Hong
Kong University of Science and Technology.
“Even
some haunted flats were leased,” the agent said, adding that all of
them paid a full year’s rent and deposit in advance, making them very
popular with landlords.
For
a 659 sq ft flat at Metro City in Tseung Kwan O, the annual rent and
two months’ deposits is around HK$294,000 (US$37,815), according to the
property agency.
Festival
City in Tai Wai, which is close to Baptist University and City
University of Hong Kong in Kowloon Tong, is also popular, as 41 leases
were signed in July alone, according to another property agency.
In
one instance, six mainland students rented a four-bedroom flat
measuring 959 sq ft for HK$37,000 a month in the estate. Festival City’s
average rent saw the biggest increase among 18 estates tracked by
property agency, with rents rising 10.2 per cent to HK$31.8 per square
foot in June from February levels.
Another estate, Solaria in Tai Po, which is near the Chinese University of Hong Kong, saw over 15 leases in July, another agent said.
One
mainland student paid an entire year’s rent, some 15 per cent above the
market level, after only viewing photos, the agent said .

永泰地產 (00369) 在6月底以26.168億元高價投得粉嶺高爾夫球會旁住宅地，據永泰最新公告，以3.9億元售出項目公司15%，予全國政協副主席董建華的胞弟董建成、前政務司司長唐英年。
可建樓面28.4萬呎
該幅地皮可建樓面約28.4萬平方呎，由永泰以每呎樓面地價9,208元擊敗另外16組財團投得，較估值上限高15%。
據發展商最新宣布已訂立協議，Sunbeam Star及Su Sih兩間海外註冊公司，向集團收購持有粉嶺住宅地項目公司的分別10%及5%的股權以及股東貸款。
當中Sunbeam的實際持有人為董建成，而Su
Sih則為唐英年，而永泰在項目所佔權益則會降低至85%，並會向兩人就股東貸款收取3.9252億元，亦即是地價26.168億元的15%。當中董建成為船王董浩雲兒子、董建華胞弟、前東方海外主席，今年初曾夥永泰、銀娛副主席呂耀東以及羅嘉瑞旗下冠君產業信託合資以2.55億英鎊收購倫敦金融城商廈；唐英年則為「紡織大王」唐翔千兒子、曾任政務司司長，其胞妹唐英敏亦曾參與永泰的屯門項目OMA By The Sea。
永泰地產發言人指，集團常夥拍不同策略合作夥伴共同參與項目發展，今次與兩位合作夥伴均對新界東北、落馬洲河套等發展十分有信心。永泰將會是最大的股東，負責是次項目發展、銷售及市場推廣。

洗衣街核心區地舖 連租約開價3500萬
本地疫情持續清零下，加上消費劵推動，市場上零售氣氛大為好轉，素來市場敏感度高的舖市，亦陸續步入復甦階段，價格回落更陸續吸引投資者趁勢吸納，當中核心區舖位成交更為顯著；有業主乘市況轉活，將手持的旺角洗衣街地舖推出應市，意向價約3,500萬元。
古早蛋糕店承租至2022年底
代理指，位於旺角洗衣街111至115號地下C號舖，面積約680平方呎，現連租約，以意向價約3,500萬元放售，平均呎價約51,471元。上址現由古早蛋糕店承租，月租約4.8萬元，租期至2022年年底，新買家可享穩定租金回報。
前水務署大樓重建計劃 升值潛力增
舖位位處洗衣街飲食旺段，計有利苑酒家外，亦有居酒屋、韓燒店及冰室等，餐飲類別多元化，不時吸引外區客捧場。而現正放售的舖位，其正面向旺角前水務署大樓原址，該用地一直積極研究作重建發展，而待日後重建計劃落實開展後，勢將帶動該地段人流增加，大為提升該舖位的長綫投資潛力，而上址業主出售舖位作重整物業投資組合，屬市場難求，此洗衣街一段的舖位業主大都看好後市，一直作長綫持有，鮮有放售。
而據資料顯示，洗衣街同一地段上，近年成交以租務為主，最新買賣為今年年中易手的165號地下，面積約2,015平方呎，成交價約5,600萬元。但隨着疫苖接種普及，市民消費意慾回升，旺角區內商舖空置率為大為改善，6月份區內商舖空置率約11.9%，按月升0.03個百分點，按年錄得0.34個百分點的跌幅，表現向好。
代理續指，旺角作為本港核心旅遊消費區，雖然受封關影響，旅客幾近絕跡，但旺角區同時亦為港人愛到之處，本土消費力不容忽視，而且近月本地疫情緩和，市民外出消費意慾回升，可望日後市況回復時，更顯旺角舖位投資價值更見穩健。至於今以放售的舖位，其地理位置極具優勢，周邊有大型重建項目有待發展，重建計劃一旦落實，預料周邊的工商舖物業造價亦會受惠。

投資部高級物業經理胡日發指出，早前以逾4.1億元購入香港仔黃竹坑珍寶閣509個車位，將作長線收租，因為黃竹坑上蓋物業發展項目陸續落成，區內停車場升值潛力大，目前平均車位月租2000元，回報約3厘，集團將為停車場增值。他認為，市況轉好，預計通關之後反彈幅度更大。
