乙厦售价月涨0.5%「追落后」

写字楼交投气氛转弱，甲级写字楼 (甲厦) 和乙级写字楼 (乙厦) 售价走势背驰。有代理行指出，今年6月分散业权的甲厦售价按月挫2%，但分散业权的乙厦造价同期涨0.5%，认为乙厦售价「追落后」，看好乙厦市场，料下半年交投更活跃。

对于甲厦和乙厦于6月的售价表现一跌一升，该行代理分析，甲厦价格正处于调整期，连续两个月向下，但乙厦则「追落后」，以6月为例，上环乙环造价按月飆13.7%，中环亦上扬3.9%，远远拋离大市。

该行认为，现时市场对投资写字楼物业的取态审慎，而乙厦入场银码较小，在目前市况下较易获吸纳，料今年下半年乙厦交投将更活跃，港岛区物业料最受投资者欢迎。

写字楼半年交投488宗多14.8%

另外，该行发表的商厦市场报告指出，今年上半年整体写字楼交投量有488宗，较2022年同期多14.8%，主因去年同期基数低，故今年反弹力度较大，估计今年全年商厦成交量可挑战1000宗水平，较2022年多约25%。成交金额方面，今年上半年录得95.3亿元，按年飆逾两成。

Secondary market hit by new flat sales

Only four deals were recorded in the 10 major housing estates in the secondary market as buyers were mostly lured into the primary market, which saw at least 130 transactions over the weekend.

The 10 major housing estates saw transactions decrease by 20 percent weekly to four on Saturday and Sunday, the 11th consecutive week of single-digit deals, data from a property agency showed.

A property agent said that the weak performance in the secondary market was partly due to the new projects that started sales over the past two days at prices that matched market levels.

The agent expects the secondary market to remain flat in the future as there is no positive or negative news for the time being.

Another agency saw five transactions in the 10 housing estates it tracked over the same weekend, down by 28.6 percent. The reading makes it 11 consecutive weeks that deal numbers have come in single digits.

Another agent said the easing in mortgage rules by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority didn't stimulate the secondary market.

The main action was in the primary market.

High Park I in Hung Shui Kiu, developed by Asia Standard International (0129), was said to have sold 64 of the 188 units that it had put on its price lists for trading on Saturday.

The apartments in this round of sale cost between HK$4.41 million and HK$7.14 million after discounts, or HK$12,688 to HK$15,773 per square foot.

La Montagne in Wong Chuk Hang also saw 47 flats purchased on Saturday, accounting for 44 percent of 108 units in the first round of sales. The prices after discounts of this batch ranged from HK$9.67 million to HK$30.16 million, or HK$23,988 to HK$35,001 per sq ft.

Henderson Land Development (0012) yesterday sold 16 out of 28 units at The Holborn in Quarry Bay, cashing in HK$120 million in one day.

Wheelock Properties said Koko Mare in Lam Tin saw two transactions that brought in HK$16.2 million in total, while Henderson's Baker Circle Euston in Hung Hom recorded one deal for HK$5.84 million.
