Sun Hung Kai Properties sold more than 500 units in RESIDENCE 88 in Yuen Long and The Wings 2 in Tseung Kwan O, while 360 hotel rooms in Kwai Chung reportedly sold within two days. This came against a background of continued concern about potential overheating in the property market and the Hong Kong government imposed further tightening measures on 23 February, doubling the stamp duty rates for property purchases. The new rates apply to both individual and corporate buyers, but do not apply to local first home buyer.
Meanwhile, the Hong Kong Monetary Authority tightened mortgage lending for the sixth time in two years, requiring banks to increase the interest rates in mortgage stress tests by 100 basis points. It points out that with no developers having bid for the MTR Corporation’s Tin Shui Wai residential site, the plausibility of the government’s plan to supply 20,000 homes per year was questioned.
To take control of land supply from developers, the government announced plans to scrap the application list system. Instead, from April, it will release a schedule for land sales every quarter. ‘We therefore maintain our previous forecast that residential property prices will remain stable, with mild upward or downward movement of less than 5% in 2013,’ it adds. ‘Overall demand from end users and long term investors is expected to remain strong. With increased transaction costs, potential buyers will have golden opportunities to purchase quality property, with more room for price negotiation,’ the report concludes. |
