渣甸山超豪宅屋地 7.5億易手

中港全面通關後，市場連錄多宗超豪宅買賣。市場消息透露，渣甸山高士美道5號屋地，剛登記以7.5億元易手。該項目曾由「大劉」劉鑾雄或有關人士持有。

渣甸山高士美道5號屋地，佔地約13,283平方呎，現有物業實用面積7,317平方呎、連8,550平方呎花園及前庭，另1,130平方呎平台及1,929平方呎天台；如以此面積計算，實呎價約10.25萬元，但若以地積比0.6倍計，項目可建樓面7,970平方呎，每呎樓面地價即約9.4萬元。

消息：曾由劉鑾雄持有

據了解，渣甸山高士美道5號屋地，2011年以海外公司登記買入，當時造價約4.6億元，而當時市場消息指新買家為「大劉」劉鑾雄，至2015年又有報道指，大劉將該豪宅地贈予女兒劉秀樺。

不過，至2017年高士美道5號登記一份按揭文件，由「重慶李嘉誠」之稱的張松橋簽署，未知是否從大劉手上接貨。值得注意的是，今次以7.5億元接貨的新買家，同樣為海外註冊公司登記，未能確定是否內部轉讓。若是次真的完成交易，則該屋地於12年間升值約63%。

其次，山頂MOUNT NICHOLSON上月中以約5.77億元售出12號洋房，該單位實用面積7,042平方呎，採四房四套連儲物室間隔，連2,715平方呎花園及泳池、1,970平方呎庭院及兩個車位，成交呎價8.2萬元。據指，登記買家姓陳，英文名採用國語拼音，須支付成交價15%、即約8,661.7萬元從價印花稅，惟未知是否須付買家印花稅，有機會是內地客或在港擁有物業的新香港人。

至於其他豪宅買賣方面，中半山富匯豪庭2座高層A、B室，實用面積合共3,738平方呎，剛以近2億元易手，呎價約5.35萬元。資料顯示，原業主2007年以約9,070萬元購入2個單位，持貨約16年，帳面獲利約1.09億元離場。

Hong Kong home prices ‘likely back in a downtrend’ as slump resumes after ‘short-lived’ first-quarter recovery: Citi

Since the last week of March, the city has recorded fewer than 80 transactions per week, and in one case only 35, according to a property agency

As low volumes pressure owners, with some of them selling at a loss, Citi now expects overall prices to stay flat through 2023

A first-quarter rally in Hong Kong’s home market turned out to be remarkably “short-lived”, as sales have now slumped and sellers are slashing prices to get deals done amid a “downward trend” that will last through the year, according to property agents and analysts.

Since the last week of March, the city’s property market has recorded fewer than 80 transactions per week, and in one case only 35, according to a property agency’s data.

The downturn follows a 7 per cent increase in home prices in the first quarter, Ken Yeung, property analyst with Citi, wrote in a research note on Tuesday.

“Hong Kong residential transaction volumes have been weakening since March 23, which was quite a surprise to us how short-lived this round of recovery was,” he said.

Hong Kong home prices “are likely back in a downtrend” given that weekly transaction volume in the secondary market has been low for two consecutive months, he said.

This is already evident this week, with some owners selling flats at a loss, according to another agency.

On Tuesday, one owner lost 5.4 per cent after selling a two-bedroom apartment at Mountain Shore in Ma On Shan for HK$7 million after five years of ownership.

A day before, another owner slashed the price for a three-bedroom home at Dragons Range in Kau To Shan, owned for eight years, by 16.8 per cent to HK$13.3 million.

The second-hand home market has been “inactive recently,” an agent said. Most of the deals that closed did so only after sellers dropped prices, the agent added.

Non-local buyers and local investors have not yet returned to the market despite the agent’s reopening, said Citi’s Yeung.

In April, transactions by non-local buyers accounted for only 1.5 per cent of home sales in Hong Kong, according to data from the Inland Revenue Department. The percentage has stayed below 2 per cent before and after China’s reopening – far from the average 5.2 per cent seen between 2018 and the first half of 2019.

Local investors are also buying fewer second homes. In April, they accounted for only 2.7 per cent of the transactions, versus 6.1 per cent between 2018 and the first half of 2019.

Looking ahead, Citi expects “overall home prices to stay flat in 2023, indicating around a 7 per cent home price drop during the second and fourth quarter”, Yeung said.

When weekly secondary volume falls below 80 deals, home prices have historically been unable to rebound over the short term, he said. Given the data since late March, he believes the market is at the beginning of a correction period.

“We expect this round of correction to last until the end of 2023,” he said, adding that home prices may rebound again when the US starts to cut interest rates in the first half of 2024 and a high season begins around the Lunar New Year period.

This month, a real estate consultancy also predicted that the home price rally in Hong Kong would lose steam in the near term.

Interest-rate increases are “affecting the buying interests of local and mainland buyers”, an agent said.

That said, Hong Kong’s investment-immigration scheme and tax incentives, coupled with Singapore’s hefty increase in stamp duty for additional buyers, “will lend support to housing demand in the future”, another agent said.
