遷出九龍灣商廈 現升級兼整合業務

全新甲廈吸引品牌租用，啟德新甲廈 AIRSIDE 全層，面積3.75萬平方呎，獲運動服裝品牌PUMA租用，呎租料逾30元。品牌原租九龍灣商廈，現提升級數同時縮減樓面。

市場消息指，啟德 AIRSIDE 錄得全層租務，涉及物業21樓全層面積約3.75萬平方呎，以每呎逾30元租出。市場消息指，新租客為PUMA，該品牌一直使用東九龍物業，早年租用九龍灣國際展貿中心，其後搬至活化工廈項目新明中心，租用兩層涉及5.6萬平方呎。如今轉租 AIRSIDE，物業質素明顯提升，同時整合業務，及減少樓面。

啟德 AIRSIDE 項目樓高47層，總樓面190萬平方呎，當中包括32層甲級寫字樓，較早前發展商指，寫字樓目前出租率為4成，並有兩個租戶洽租，一旦落實，出租率將升至近5成。事實上，AIRSIDE 商場於9月尾正式開業，提供多層商場，故項目整體配套齊全，料可加快租務。翻查資料，目前該廈最大租客，為三菱東京UFJ銀行，租用兩層涉7萬平呎，另南豐集團將自用多層樓面。

灣仔海港中心中層戶 呎租52

另消息指，灣仔北海港中心中層9及10室，面積約3,677平方呎，以每呎約52元租出；另旺角中心低層10A室，面積約616平方呎，成交呎租約36元。

另有代理表示，觀塘鴻圖道35號天星中心工廈26樓全層，面積約5,750平方呎，意向價約4,490萬元，平均呎價約7,800元。

商廈價回調成交增 用家承接

整體商廈買賣回升，業內人士指，隨着商廈價格已有大幅調整，漸吸引用家入市。

上月指標甲廈買賣不算暢旺，據中原10大指標商廈，合共僅錄2宗買賣。百德國際 (02668) 表示，出售金鐘道力寶中心二座1902室，涉資約3,800萬元，完成後集團將回租物業，為期1年，月租約7.6萬元。單位面積約1,900平方呎，呎價約2萬元。翻查資料，該公司於2018年以約7,163.2萬元購入單位，持貨5年轉手，蝕約3,363.2萬元離場，幅度約47%。

中環美國銀行中心全層 交易取消

另外，較早前美國銀行中心23樓全層連3個車位，物業面積約13,880平方呎，去年物業淪為銀主盤，放盤多月未獲承接。直至上月，一家內企有意購入該層樓面作自用，出價約3.38億元，雙方已達成協議。惟市場人士透露，準買方原需於2星期前支付訂金，但因資金調動出現困難，直至限期前亦未能完成買賣，決定取消有關收購。現物業重回銀主手上，並隨即再度放售，定價仍為約3.38億元，呎價約2.4萬元。

近期二綫商廈全層買賣成交增加，包括灣仔資本中心，錄得2層全層樓面成交，而中環永安集團大廈全層亦告易手。

有代理表示，近期整體商廈買賣氣氛有改善，與高峰期相比，商廈呎價已有大幅回調，故開始吸引用家入市。從近期多宗買賣均由用家承接，該代理分析，由於商廈市道最差時間已過，用家有見價格調整，屬好時機買單位自用。

信德中心 呎租高見55元

租務方面，他指，近期指標甲廈租金平穩，如力寶中心錄數宗租務，呎租約41元，包括力寶中心一座中層12室，面積約793平方呎，成交呎租約48元，另物業2座高層09室，面積約1,786平方呎，成交呎租約45元。至於上環指標商廈信德中心，則錄3宗成交，包括信德中心西座中層08至10室，面積約4,152平方呎，成交呎租高見約55元；另信德中心招商局大廈中層13室，面積約1,066平方呎，以每呎約50元租出。該代理分析，整體指標商廈租金已喘定，料租金續平穩。

New projects hit market as Hibor rises

Developers are rolling out new projects on the market despite rising Hong Kong interbank offered rates.

But despite the rush of new projects, government taxes on home sales fell to a one-year low last month.

In Mong Kok, Lofter Group named its residential/commercial project at 181 Sai Yee Street as Elize Park. Offering 52 flats with areas of 220 to 440 square feet, it is expected to start sales at the end of this month.

The project is expected to be completed by the end of June, 2024.

Meanwhile, Henderson Land (0012) uploaded the sales brochure for The Paddington in Sham Shui Po.

The project includes two towers providing 492 apartments, with areas ranging from 185 to 499 sq ft.

In Tin Shui Wai, Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016) aims to upload the sales brochure for Yoho West on November 20 and unveil price lists within the month.

The Jessville luxury housing project in Pok Fu Lam owned by the William Ngartse Thomas Tam family has just listed its sales brochure, offering 32 homes, including four large residences situated within the 91-year-old historic Jessville Manor building.

Yesterday, the mortgage-related one-month Hibor climbed to 4.92946 percent yesterday, a new weekly high.

Meanwhile, the Inland Revenue Department said stamp duty revenue from property transactions across Hong Kong in October totaled HK$239 million, a new low since October 2022.

The amount reflected a monthly decline of about 27.2 percent.

Meanwhile, the number of property deals fell 23 percent monthly to 121 transactions in October.

MTR receives no ‘conforming tender’ for Tung Chung site in latest setback for Hong Kong’s property market outlook

Company received no conforming tender for proposals to develop its Tung Chung site on Lantau Island, despite attracting 32 expressions of interest

The lack of proposals suggests the base price set by MTR is unattractive, a surveyor said

MTR Corp has failed to entice Hong Kong property developers to jointly develop a large-scale mixed-use property project in Tung Chung near the city’s international airport, a week after the government failed to sell another site in the vicinity.

“We have not received any conforming tender for the development,” the company said in a statement after the bidding closed at 2pm local time on Thursday. The proposed development on the site known as Tung Chung Town Lot No 53 had earlier attracted 32 expressions of interest from potential bidders when invitation closed on October 6.

MTR sought proposals for Package One of the Tung Chung East Station Development on Lantau Island, which comprises residential and retail components and is scheduled to be built in phases through 2029.

“The lack of proposals for the project suggests the base price set by MTR Corp is unattractive” to prospective investors, a surveyor said. An abundant supply of land bank in the area in the near future may have also diminished its appeal or appreciation potential, the surveyor added.

The setback reflects the uncertainty and medium-term visibility of Hong Kong’s housing market outlook. A succession of interest-rate increases by the Federal Reserve and the Hong Kong Monetary Authority since March 2022 has pushed financing costs to the highest level since 2007, denting home prices in the city along the way.

Hong Kong’s government rejected all four tenders for a 10,648-square metre residential site in Tung Chung on November 1, saying the bids fell short of its reserve price. Analysts also cited the lack of confidence in the market outlook. The government had failed to sell the site in four previous attempts.

Package One of the Tung Chung East Station Development is located at the southeastern part of the site opposite the future rail station. The maximum residential gross floor area is 64,650 square metres, while the commercial gross floor area is limited to 8,133 square metres.

The project will be conveniently served by the proposed station on the Tung Chung Line Extension, which is under construction and also targeted for completion in 2029, MTR said.

Another surveyor estimates the first package could provide 1,200 flats, with a minimum selling price of HK$2,000 (US$256) per square foot for the parcel. On that basis, the site could be valued at about HK$1.57 billion, the surveyor added.

“While MTR residential projects offer good amenities and access, the current high interest rates and expensive construction costs cannot support the overall project’s return,” another surveyor said.

The opening of Tung Chung’s new rail station is still some years away, so property developers have found no urgency to participate under the current uncertain market conditions, with many cautiously biding their time, the surveyor added.

That caution has persisted since MTR also scrapped a tender in February for the Oyster Bay residential site, also on Lantau Island. The latest failure indicates the Oyster Bay project, as well as other sites in Tung Chung East, may struggle to relaunch or sell in the future.

Away from home, MTR also suffered a knock earlier this month after its MTR Nordic unit opted to terminate its concession to operate the rail service in Stockholm before its December 2026 expiry. The company expects to take a HK$700 million hit in its 2024 earnings.
