市場資金充裕 商廈交投轉好

低息環境加上市場資金充裕，投資者趁近日疫情緩和，開始重投工商舖物業，而連月來交投較淡靜的商廈，近期不論甲、乙廈買賣亦有增加。

最近整體工商舖投資市場氣氛向好，而商廈市場方面，甲、乙廈均錄成交。如「磁帶大王」陳秉志等拆售的中環皇后大道中99號中環中心39樓，其中39樓3室，面積約1,843平方呎，以6,266.2萬元售出，呎價3.4萬元。據悉，陳秉志2年前把該層分間成12個單位出售，當時39樓3室曾以8,746.8萬元沽出，呎價達4.75萬元，惟買家最終撻訂，單位在接近2年後重售，價格跌幅達28%。另外，市場人士透露，中環中心38樓全層，面積約25,412平方呎，獲財團出價洽購。該層樓面可享有海景，目前交吉。消息指，財團以約8.7億元洽購，呎價約3.4萬元。

蔡伯能減價沽旺中 遠東金融中心

另外，資深投資者蔡伯能連環減價推售商廈，其中旺角中心14樓多組單位進行放售，涉及22伙，售價由806萬至1,500萬元，呎價約1.75萬至2萬元。日前22伙單位全數獲承接，料涉約2.5億元。

蔡伯能於2017年以3.18億元購入物業，其後分拆成34伙發售，個別呎價3萬元，故現成交呎價較高峰期下跌逾4成。此外，他亦推售金鐘遠東金融中心3樓單位，其中6A室，以及8至13室，面積約5,680平方呎，以約1.428億元成交，呎價約2.5萬元。單位現由銀行租用。蔡伯能早年購入該層全層並進行拆售，個別單位造價曾造至5萬元，如今單位全數沽出。按是次呎價計，較高峰期回落一半。

宏基資本大廈全層獲洽 呎價1萬

東九龍方面，宏基資本大廈9樓全層，面積約12,029平方呎，獲約1.25億洽購，若成交最終落實，呎價約1.03萬元。資料顯示，第一集團持有的觀塘宏基資本大廈16樓全層，最近亦以逾1.31億連4車位售，呎價約1.09萬元。

至於乙廈方面，市場消息指，由上市公司持有西環德輔道西九號全層連2個車位將易手，涉及28樓、29樓及天台，另2樓P12號及P22號車位，將以現狀及交吉出售。據悉，物業面積約1.4萬平方呎，成交價料約2.5億元，呎價約1.79萬元。

分析指，疫情略為緩和，投資市場氣氛向好。今年首季工廈市場、以及中細價舖交投均有反彈，相比之下，商廈買賣則較淡靜。在價格或租金回調後，投資者重拾興趣，預計只要疫情未見轉差，商廈買賣仍平穩向好。

西貢舖王4200萬 沽上環全幢物業

工商舖交投加快，近日有位於核心區的全幢物業轉手，「西貢舖王」羅茂祥近日沽出旗下上環鴨巴甸街15號全幢物業，成交價4,200萬元，較原本的意向價低16%。

低意向價16% 呎售19373元

根據土地註冊處資料，上環鴨巴甸街15號全幢物業，建築總面積約2,168平方呎，近日以4,200萬元售，呎價約19,373元。

原業主是EARN CHINA LIMITED，公司董事為羅茂祥及余美玉，前者是有「西貢舖王」之稱的皮具公司老闆。

羅氏於2011年以2,700萬元買入上址，持貨10年，目前易手帳面獲利1,500萬元，物業升值約56%。

據了解，原業主於去年年中放盤，當時意向價約5,000萬元，意味是次成交價較意向價低16%。物業樓高3層連天台，距離港鐵上環站及中環站分別5及10分鐘步程。

TST tops Causeway Bay as world's priciest retail strip

Tsim Sha Tsui leapfrogged Causeway Bay to become the world's most expensive retail strip last year, property agency said.

Two-thirds of retail strips in Asia Pacific saw rental declines in 2020, with Causeway Bay experiencing the steepest decline of 43 percent, the agency firm said.

"Causeway Bay had been No 1 across the globe in retail rental value in the past two years. Yet its position was taken over by Tsim Sha Tsui in 2020.

"Retail rental dropped by 42 percent and 35 percent year-on-year for Central and Tsim Sha Tsui. On average, retail space rental value citywide has fallen by 38 percent in Hong Kong over the course of 2020," the agency said.

Meanwhile, sales at Birkin bag maker Hermes soared 44 percent in the first quarter, powered by strong growth in Asia, where revenues nearly doubled from a year earlier as Covid-19 restrictions eased and shops reopened.

The French luxury group, which has weathered the coronavirus pandemic better than rivals, said revenues at constant exchange rates came in at EUR2.08 billion (HK$19.44 billion) in the three months to March, beating analysts' expectations of a 24 percent increase.

Sales in Asia excluding Japan surged 94 percent over the period, with growth in China especially significant. That, coupled with a rebound in the United States, where sales grew by 24 percent, helped the group more than offset a decline in sales in Europe due to a new round of coronavirus lockdowns.

Eric du Halgouet, executive vice president for finance at the group, told reporters the sales growth in the quarter was not driven by a big increase in prices, as the group had nudged prices up by just 1.4 percent so far this year.

He said online sales had increased by 100 percent or more in all regions, and would likely soon exceed 1 billion euros.

The group's strong first quarter - with sales up 33 percent from their 2019 levels - adds to signs of a comeback for the luxury goods sector, with rivals LVMH and Kering also reporting a surge in revenues.

However, Du Halgouet said it was too early to predict that the industry would put the coronavirus crisis squarely behind it this year, pointing to fresh concerns about a possible resurgence of the virus in Japan.

First residential site sale set at far north

Bids for the first residential site in Kwu Tung North to be sold by government tender close today, with the plot valued at between HK$4.8 billion and HK$6 billion.

The site area is around 200,000 square feet.

In the primary market, Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016) received 1,300 checks for 128 units of Regency Bay's phase two in Tuen Mun to be sold according to the price list tomorrow, making them 9.2 times oversubscribed. Sun Hung Kai will also offer one unit for sale by tender tomorrow.

Henderson Land Development (0012) expects to release at least 96 units in the first price list of The Henley I in Kai Tak in early May. The project offers 479 units of between 186 and 1,350 square feet.

In the secondary market, a 1,114-sq-ft flat at Tai Koo Shing in Quarry Bay changed hands for HK$24.50 million, or HK$21,993 per sq ft. The seller, who bought the unit for HK$1.5 million in 1989, will make a capital gain of HK$23 million.

And the one-month Hong Kong Interbank Offered Rate, linked to the mortgage rate, fell to 0.09161 percent.

If the Hibor-based mortgage interest rate is Hibor plus 1.3 percent it can be as low as 1.39161 percent. With a HK$4-million mortgage and an annual interest rate of 1.39161 percent and a repayment tenor of 25 years, for example, a customer needs only to pay HK$15,794 each month.

In comparison, the one-month Hibor was 0.38232 percent on July 13, and a homebuyer would have needed to pay HK$16,342 monthly for a 25-year loan based on an interest of 1.68232 percent. So the new rate means a homebuyer benefits to the tune of HK$548 monthly.
