Transactions at major housing
estates in the secondary market rebounded amid deeper price cuts, with
deals at Taikoo Shing and Nan Fung Sun Cheun falling to under HK$9
million and HK$6 million respectively.
Data
from a property agency showed that 10 major housing estates saw a 175
percent jump in transactions to 11 last weekend, amid the possible
slower pace of interest rate hikes by the United States and eased
Covid-19 restrictions in mainland China.
Among
six housing estates which reported at least one deal, City One Shatin
topped the list with five deals at an average price of HK$13,200 per
square foot, while transactions in Kingswood Villas in Tin Shui Wai
doubled to two, despite a 4.5 percent decrease in the average price to
HK$9,723 per sq ft.
Taikoo
Shing's sole deal came after the owner slashed the asking price by
HK$3.5 million or 29 percent to HK$8.5 million, resulting in an average
price of HK$14,605 per sq ft for the two-bedroom unit.
The agency added that Taikoo Shing has reported four transactions so far in November, at HK$15,158 per sq ft on average.
Apart
from the 10 estates, Nan Fung Sun Cheun in Quarry Bay saw a flat traded
for HK$5.78 million or HK$11,202 per sq ft, which might be the first
deal below HK$6 million for a three-bedroom unit since 2016.
Elsewhere,
a flat with three bedrooms in Festival City Phase 2 in Tai Wai brought a
loss of HK$1.38 million to the holder after offering a price cut of
18.4 percent to HK$10.2 million, which led to an average price of
HK$13,765 per sq ft, a new estate low in the past 18 months.
Hong
Kong Property also attributed the increased deals in the secondary
market to the expected slowdown in interest rate hikes as homeowners
continue to offer price cuts.
Meanwhile, demand in the primary market remained hot, with small units remaining lucrative to homebuyers.
Vanke Hong Kong said seven flats at Bondlane I
in Cheung Sha Wan were sold on Saturday, after the 30 units offered in
the first round saw a demand of over seven times the supply, with 250
pledges.
The two-bedroom flats among the released units have sold out.
The developer responded it might consider offering more units with two bedrooms for sale in the short term.
The prices after discount for the 30 units in the first round ranged between HK$4.16 million and HK$7.82 million.

大額投資市場 工廈獨撑
投資氣氛持續低迷,近期大額投資物業上,僅工廈獨撑市場。只要根據工廈與商廈、舖位多項數據作比較,便一目了然,解釋為何工廈仍是一枝獨秀。
今年第三季,投資氣氛明顯放緩,主要受美國加息步伐轉急所致,與供樓相關的港元1個月同業拆息 (HIBOR),續高於3厘水平,最新1個月同業拆息報3.21厘。
大額工商舖物業,向來由投資者入市主導,基金過去兩年積極在港入市,全因在低息環境下,享穩定回報率,故過去兩年投資市場整體表現不差。不過,隨着息口預期持續向上,借貸成本上升,基金及本地投資者要追求更高回報率,抵銷加息影響。但同時間,持貨業主減價幅度未算強勁,導致成交量偏低。
基金吸納工廈 拓迷你倉業務
單計近兩三星期,市場上大額工商舖物業買賣,涉及3億至5億元以上實在不多,而10億以上大手成交更是極少。從成交中,資金集中追捧同一個範疇,就是工廈。如長沙灣永新工業大廈,原由「毛紡大王」之稱的曹光彪家族持有,總樓面涉約21.5萬平方呎,以8.5億元成交,新買家為私募基金黑石
(Blackstone) 夥迷你倉集團合資買入。
該基金近年積極入市,主要吸納工廈,發展迷你倉業務。另外,新加坡迷你倉品牌StorHub以9,800萬元,近日購入長沙灣長裕街18號柏裕工業中心7、8樓全層樓面,而該集團今年積極在港入市,早前亦已收購該廈單位,包括以3.5億元,購入該廈約50%業權,如今再增持單位。
工廈回報率3.5% 勝甲廈商舖
在多項不利因素下,工廈仍是投資者,特別基金首選。若參考工商舖3項數字,一作比較便得知原因。據一間外資代理行數據,今年9月份,甲廈及商舖空置率,分別為14.4%及10.2%,兩項數字均偏高,而工廈空置率,僅為2.7%。租金方面,近3年甲廈及商舖租金,分別大幅下挫26.6%及35.6%,而工廈租金卻錄2.1%升幅,表現相距極遠。對投資者來說,回報率甚為重要,工廈現時回報率平均約3.5%,而甲廈及舖位,則低於3%。
以上多項數字,足以反映工廈受捧原因,畢竟本港商業氣氛尚未回復,特別甲廈市場,空置率高加上供應多,租金持續受壓,令投資者卻步。相反工廈空置率低,租金有增長,數字甚亮麗,而在加息持續下,投資者定必對回報率更加重視,如今工廈回報率仍高於甲廈及商舖,故令投資者相對安心。
此外,工廈始終具備增值空間,如最近大手成交的工廈,多屬基金購入,改裝成迷你倉,故物業價格同時提升。既有穩定回報,又有增值空間,工廈難怪繼續成投資者首選。

一間代理行綜合土地註冊處資料顯示,10月工廈註冊量只錄145宗,金額12.67億,按月分別跌16.2%及26.9%。工廈買賣減少,令售價按月跌0.4%。

貨倉連錄大額租賃

上月錄4宗逾億成交,以基金投資者為主,他們對貸款依賴較低,無畏加息。10月最大宗億元成交為新加坡基金普洛斯以10.8億購入青衣清甜街8至12號全幢倉庫,黑石基金亦夥同StorHub迷你倉以8.5億向曹光彪家族買入位於長沙灣的永新工業大廈全幢。
該行代理表示,加息減少投資活動,令工廈買賣疏落,為節省成本,企業都會偏向租用物業。
