The Uppland rolls out more flats, sales to start this weekend
The first phase of Gold Coast Bay, The Uppland, rolled out a second list of 80 flats yesterday, with prices ranging from HK$1.9 million to HK$7.04 million after discounts.
The flats in the new batch range from 204 to 653 square feet in size, and 16 of them are priced below HK$2 million after discounts.
The average price of HK$10,686 per sq ft in the second list is about 7 percent higher than the HK$9,988 per sq ft unveiled in the first price list last week by Early Light International, the project's developer.
Early Light's Property Development department sales and marketing manager Leo Koo Kam-po said this latest release includes 43 studios, 32 two-bedroom, and 5 three-bedroom flats, with most of the two- to three-bedroom units featuring sea views.
The sales arrangement will be uploaded as early as today, with the first round of sales scheduled to begin this weekend, Koo said.
The project received over 4,000 checks for the first batch of 139 flats as of Sunday, making them 27 times oversubscribed.
About 70 percent of current buyers are occupants, while the remaining 30 percent are investors, with many coming from areas such as Tuen Mun, Yuen Long and Tin Shui Wai in the New Territories, Koo said.
The two price lists for a total of 219 units have a market value of about HK$759 million.
Meanwhile, the third phase of The Pavilia Forest in Kai Tak received about 5,000 checks by 3pm yesterday. The first batch, which was oversubscribed 68 times, offers 72 flats with discounted prices ranging from HK$4.27 million to HK$13.9 million, averaging HK$17,956 per sq ft.
The developers, New World Development (0017) and Far East Consortium International (0035), named the project Azure Forest as the residential building in Kai Tak is surrounded by the sea on three sides and offers the most seafront views.
The project is set to launch sales as early as Sunday, says Cannas Ho Ka-yan, NWD's general manager of business and marketing, special projects, and VIP customer development.
The project has a total of 264 flats, with 70 one-bedroom units ranging from 260 to 263 sq ft, 143 two-bedroom units ranging from 382 to 395 sq ft, 45 three-bedroom units ranging from 579 to 666 sq ft, and six special units ranging from 223 to 666 sq ft.

Hong Kong developers keep pricing flats to move amid supply glut, high rates
New price lists from New World Development, Far East Consortium and Early Light International undercut recent nearby sales by up to a third
Hong Kong developers continue to rely on attractive pricing as a strategy to clear their swollen stock as interest-rate cuts and a stronger economic recovery fail to materialise, according to analysts and the latest price lists for sales that are soon to launch.
New price lists for New World Development (NWD) and Far East Consortium’s The Pavilia Forest III project in Kai Tak and Early Light International Holdings’ The Uppland in Tuen Mun both have average prices per square foot well below recent launches in nearby developments – by more than a third for The Pavilia Forest III and 10 per cent for The Uppland.
“It’s definitely a buyers’ market now,” a property agent said. “Currently, price cuts are the most effective way to drive sales, as buyers have many options.”
The supply of new flats in Hong Kong is expected to hit 112,000 in the next three to four years, according to a Housing Bureau estimate in March – marking the second straight quarter where the number hit a record high. Demand, meanwhile, is being smothered under interest rates that remain at a 23 year high and an economy that slowed to 2.7 per cent growth in the first three months of the year from 4.3 per cent in the preceding quarter.
NWD and Far East Consortium announced over the weekend that they will sell the cheapest 72 units in Tower 1 of The Pavilia Forest III in Kai Tak at a discounted price of HK$16,438 (US$2,105) per square foot. That means the average price of the units in the tower, called Azure Forest, undercuts by more than a third the April 2022 average price of HK$24,833 per square foot for the first units at the nearby Monaco Marine project.
The 72 listed units – 30 one-bedroom units, 35 two-bedroom flats and seven three-bedrooms units – range from 260 to 666 sq ft, and the price range spans from HK$4.27 million to HK$13.89 million after discounts.
Azure Forest offers 264 units overall and will be the first tower in the Kai Tak residential area with a sea view, according to the developers.
The price list represents a 4.5 per cent increase over the 198 units in The Pavilia Forest I that were put on the market on Saturday. The average price of those flats, at HK$16,008 per square foot, reflected discounts of up to 18 per cent compared with other new developments in the same area, according to a local property agency.
The initial units on offer, ranging from 234 to 512 sq ft, were priced from HK$3.86 million to HK$9.87 million. As of Monday, 185 units have found buyers, according to NWD.
Meanwhile, Early Light International Holdings is set to sell the latest batch of units at The Uppland project in Tuen Mun’s Gold Coast Bay area at an average price about 10 per cent below that of flats offered in June at another project in the district.
The developer, controlled by billionaire “toy king” Francis Choi Chee-ming, issued a price list for 80 units on Monday, with an average price of HK$10,686 per square foot.
That represents a 9.8 per cent reduction from the average price of HK$11,854 per square foot for 160 units put on sale in June by Sun Hung Kai Properties in its Novo Land project, which is also in Tuen Mun. The Novo Land flats were themselves priced as much as 17 per cent below previous launches in the district.
The new batch of flats in The Uppland comprises 43 studios, 32 two-bedroom units, and five three-bedroom units. Prices start at HK$1.9 million, according to Raymond Lee, managing director at Early Light.
“The project received more than 4,000 subscriptions last weekend, showing the strong demand for the property,” said Leo Koo Kam Poo, the developer’s sales and marketing manager. “Buyers are mainly from the New Territories, with 70 per cent of them end users and the rest for investment.”
Compared with the previous price list, the average price for the latest list is nearly 7 per cent higher.
“Developers increase prices based on the market response,” an agent said. “When the first batch of sales is satisfactory, they will try to increase prices slightly. However, the risk is that the sales may slow down, so a careful balance is required.”
