联合出版1.3亿 购观塘俊汇中心两层

东九龙再录低价成交，观塘俊汇中心两层以1.33亿沽出，呎价6,287元，买家为联合出版集团。

资料显示，观塘鸿图道22号俊汇中心28及29楼连天台易手，物业面积合共约21,154平方呎，并连同一个约1,608平方呎平台，以及5个车位，以1.33亿元易手，平均呎价6,287元，呎价重回约十多年前水平。

呎价6287 原业主10年蚀7368万

据悉，买家为联合出版集团，该集团去年尾亦有购入商厦，涉及湾仔资本中心23楼全层，以2.4亿元成交，以面积约15,727平方呎计，呎价15,260元。

此外，该集团去年中以3,800万元，购入北角英皇道东祥工厂大厦9楼全层。

是次俊汇中心单位原由商人持有，2014年以近2.1亿购入两全层单位自用，持货10年，帐面劲蚀7,368万，物业贬值36%。事实上，近期东九龙已录多宗商厦低价成交，包括九龙湾富临中心全层以1.6亿元沽出，呎价仅约6,644元创新低，原业主持货6年蚀逾半离场。

九展功成身退 变阵商住发展

前身为工业区的九龙湾逐步转型为商贸区，作为第二个核心商业区 (CBD2) 主要部分，区内项目积极计划重建为商业项目，涉逾147万平方呎。而近日正式结束营运的区内地标九龙湾国际展贸中心，原亦拟重建商厦项目，惟发展商近期变阵，大幅削减商业楼面外，亦为重建方案加入住宅元素。

在起动九龙东推展下，九龙湾陆续转型为区内重点的商贸区，但因区内不少大型工厦均由单一业主持有，故此要展开重建的难度较高。

观乎该区近年有3个重建为商业项目批出，涉逾147万平方呎商业楼面，包括由中渝置地 (01224) 主席张松桥等持有的临泽街8号啟汇，虽项目曾在2020年年中，获屋宇署批准建筑图则以重建2幢28层高商业大楼，总楼面约68万平方呎，惟去年该厦获医管局承租约10层楼面，故料发展商短期内未必会落实有关重建计划。同时，永泰 (00369) 旗下常悦道13号瑞兴中心，于2022年亦获屋宇署批准重建1幢26层高的商厦 (另设4层地库)，涉及总楼面面积约26.3万平方呎。

减总楼面 增建1881伙住宅

值得留意的是，由亿京伙同资本策略 (00497) 组成的财团所持有的九龙湾国际展贸中心，原已向城规会申请重建商业及工业展览馆，申请亦已在去年获会方批准，不过近日发展商变阵，减少总楼面及地积比率，并加入住宅元素，拟重建6幢住宅，1幢商厦及1幢混合用途大楼，提供1,881伙住宅，总楼面面积约146万平方呎，当中住宅楼面佔约92.4万平方呎，写字楼佔约29.2万平方呎楼面，亦设楼面约12.1万平方呎工业展览馆等。上述财团早于2021年中以约105亿元，向合和实业 (00054) 买入项目，而项目已于上月30日正式结束营运。

另外九龙仓 (00004) 持有的啟兴道九龙货仓，则已于2022年底亦以约20.9亿元完成补地价，将由目前的工业用途转作商住项目，将提供约1,782伙。

与此同时，政府亦积极腾出空间作重建之用，包括将区内前运输署验车中心、废物回收中心、验车中心等设施搬出，以组合为「九龙湾行动区」，发展大型商业、零售及文化项目，总楼面面积涉逾430万平方呎，但因近年商厦空置率上升，估计政府短期内未必会推出上述商业用地招标。

Loans for pre-sold homes hit 27-month high

The number of mortgages for pre-sold homes soared 178 percent month-on-month to a 27-month high of around 800 in June, according to the city's two major mortgage consultants.

The surge resulted from a series of new projects put on the market after the removal of housing curbs by the government in late February.

One of the mortgage broker said borrowing for homes under construction increased to 804 cases last month, while another broker put the figure at 775 cases.

The latest figure was 611 percent higher from a year ago and the number for the first half rose by 147 percent year-on-year to 1,653, data from the first broker showed.

Mortgages for completed flats also hit an eight-month high in June. The first broker saw the number jump by 38.4 percent month-on-month to 4,943 in June while the other one recorded a 39 percent rise to 4,705 over the same period.

But the number related to completed homes was still 41 percent lower than a year ago, dragged down by the sluggish market before the stimulus in February, according to the first broker.

The first half of the year recorded 24,530 cases for completed units, 39 percent lower than a year earlier, hitting a historic low since records started in 2001.

Mortgages for unfinished homes were mainly boosted by sales at projects including Yoho West in Tin Shui Wai, Uptown East in Kowloon Bay, Belgravia Place in Cheung Sha Wan and Baker Circle in Hung Hom.

Meanwhile, buyers of Novo Land in Tuen Mun contributed to at least 20 percent of new mortgage loans for completed homes last month.

Since developers continue to reduce inventory, the number of mortgage loans is expected to keep rising, both brokers noted.

However, the number of real estate agents decreased by 125 to 38,918 last month, a new six-year low, data from the Estate Agents Authority showed.

Home prices remain under pressure. A report from a real estate agency showed that the recent new projects are priced at over 10 percent lower than the 2015 levels, squeezing the secondary market.

In other news, the first phase of the Pavilia Forest in Kai Tak, which was co-developed by New World Development (0017) and Far East Consortium (0035), opened one two-bedroom show flat yesterday.

‘Race to the bottom’: Hong Kong home prices slump to multi-year lows, with change far off

Recent launches have sold poorly despite decade-low prices, while prices of lived-in flats hit a nearly eight-year low, according to a property agency

Hong Kong’s lacklustre home sales are weighing on prices, with recent new-unit launches selling poorly despite decade-low prices and prices of lived-in flats skidding to a nearly eight-year low, according to a property agency.

Although the trend varies among the city’s districts, several new developments have hit the market with prices more than 10 per cent below those of similar projects in 2015, the property consultancy said in its latest report. Worse yet, sell-through rates have failed to impress despite the discounts.

“Hong Kong home prices have been on a race to the bottom in the last four to eight weeks,” an agent said.

With interest rates still at a 23-year high in Hong Kong, the forecast for sales remains downbeat, according to another property agency.

“Clearly, owner-occupiers are experiencing dwindling confidence in the market,” the first agency said in the report. “Factors such as job security and wage growth, which were once stable and reliable, have now become significant concerns.”

In May, the average price of a new class A unit, defined as a flat with a size of less than 431 sq ft, in Yau Ma Tei was HK$20,346 (US$2,605) per square foot, a 10.6 per cent decrease from HK$22,768 in 2015. Meanwhile, in Kennedy Town, average per-square-foot prices were down 6 per cent to HK$22,022 from HK$23,424 in 2015.

Yet Henderson Land’s The Haddon in Hung Hom, for example, only sold a fifth of the 63 units it put on offer on the first day of sales last month. Also late last month, not one of 30 units put on sale at Continental’s Amber Place in Cheung Sha Wan sold during the launch weekend.

Meanwhile, secondary home prices are also suffering, with the official price index from the Rating and Valuation Department reverting to a declining trend in May after registering a small increase in April.

It fell 1.22 per cent in May, reversing a 0.5 per cent improvement in April, and the May index reading of 305.9 is comparable to that of November 2016 at 306.7, the agency said.

Recent trends in Hong Kong property deals suggest that enthusiasm over the lifting of all property cooling restrictions in February dissipated after two months of improving sales in March and April.

Following a decline of more than a quarter in May, transactions of private residential units sank by 36 per cent in June to 4,165, compared with the previous month, according to data from another property agency.

The total number of property transactions – encompassing everything from homes and car parks to shops, industrial units and offices – fell 33 per cent to 4,939 as of June 27, from 7,361 in May.

The latest official data on property sales is likely to come out this week.

“It is estimated that residential transaction volume in the second half of the year will shrink by about 20 per cent compared with the first half,” another agentsaid. “As for developers, they will still use a low-price strategy to sell their stock, so property prices may also fall by another 3 per cent in the second half of the year.”

The agency added that more “supportive demand-side policies” were needed to restore demand-supply balance and cushion the downward spiral of home prices.
