近年工廈受追捧，市場再錄1宗全幢買賣，身為投資者的澳博聯席主席兼執行董事梁安琪，沽售觀塘同得仕大廈全幢，作價7.9億，物業具重建價值，每呎樓面地價5448元，持貨逾7年間升值63%。
消息人士透露，由賭王四太梁安琪持有的觀塘全幢工廈，亦以7.9億易手，平均呎價7467元，若以重建樓面計算，每方呎樓面地價高達5448元！知情人士續說，該宗成交早於半年前已落實，一直不為人所知，直至近日成交，消息終於曝光，新買家為持有毗鄰兆富工廠大廈的財團，有見擴大地盤規模，增加協同效應，因而高價承接。
平均呎價7467元
觀塘偉業街203號同得仕大廈，現為1幢13層高工廈，現址建築面積約10.58萬方呎，地盤面積約10075方呎，早於2020年，業主建議放寬兩成地積比率，以最高14.4倍重建，興建1幢25層高新型工廈，涉及樓面約14.5萬方呎，獲得規劃署不反對，若以重建樓面及易手價計算，每呎樓面地價5448元。
梁安琪早於2014年9月向同得仕購入該廈全幢，作價4.85億，持貨逾7年，帳面獲利3.05億，物業升值63%。
上述同得仕大廈的新買家，正是持有偉業街201號兆富工廠大廈的財團，日後將合併2項目重建，兆富佔地約10075方呎，樓高僅6層，重建價值高於同得仕，財團早於多年前涉足收購，其中3樓全層，於2020年4月，向正八集團主席廖偉麟購入，建築面積約9300方呎，涉資8500萬。
由毗鄰地盤業主承接
據了解，財團並於2021年，就該廈申請放寬地積比率20%，至14.4倍，重建1幢29層高商廈，總樓面約14.5萬方呎。
觀塘同得仕大廈全幢工廈，以7.9億易手，平均呎價7467元，每方呎樓面地價5448元，買家為持有毗鄰地盤的財團。

士美菲路鋪4450萬售 持貨16年升值1.86倍
民生區鋪位仍然活躍，西環士美菲路一個地鋪，建築面積760方呎，以4450萬易手，平均呎價5.86萬，物業於16年間升值1.86倍，新買家料回報3.1厘。
市場消息透露，西環士美菲路12號文光閣地下B鋪，以4450萬易手，建築面積約760方呎，現址為來自台灣的連鎖日式食肆爭鮮，月租11.5萬直至2022年5月，目前新租約則按市值計算，料回報逾3.1厘。
原業主於2007年8月以1555萬買入，持貨16年帳面獲利2895萬，物業升值1.86倍。
料回報約3.1厘
盛滙商舖基金創辦人李根興表示，上述鋪位門闊14呎，深約35呎，旁邊為麥當勞及7-Eleven，選址於此，代表該地段具有消費力，人流暢旺，可惜該鋪前面有小巴站，擋住門面，鋪價因此將被打9折。
金百利意向呎價1.74萬
此外，地產代理表示，銅鑼灣記利佐治街1號金百利15樓06室，面積約1022方呎，意向價約1780萬，平均呎價約17417元，
據了解，物業現以連約出售，現租客為牙醫，若以現時市值呎租約28元計算，回報約2厘，不過，隨着通關後經濟復甦，社會及經濟復常，在利好因素帶動下，商廈市況好轉，預料租金仍有升值空間。

Mong Kok landmark on way as SHKP wins site for $4.7b
Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016) has won a commercial site at the junction of Sai Yee Street and Argyle Street in Mong Kok for HK$4.73 billion - 16.1 percent below the lower end of market estimates - and pledged to create a new landmark.
The site, near the Mong Kok East MTR Station and the developer's Moko shopping mall, has an area of some 11,537 square meters and could provide a maximum gross floor area of 141,600 sq m.
Valuations for the plot ranged from HK$5.64 billion to HK$10.97 billion, or HK$3,700 to HK$7,200 per square foot.
"I think the government has accepted the reality and trimmed its reserve price as the commercial market has been under pressure in recent years, with rents hitting record lows," a surveyor said.
Another surveyor said it was slightly surprised by the low price for such a prime site in a prime location and believes the authorities' main consideration may be providing a stable supply.
The project with a height of up to 320 meters is expected to be completed by 2030. And a footbridge connecting Moko mall will be built to create synergy.
The other two bidders for the huge commercial plot in the area were CK Asset (1113) and a consortium of Great Eagle (0041) and Sino Land (0083), according to the Lands Department.
SHKP is required to build a day care center for the elderly, a neighborhood elderly center, an integrated children and youth services center, an integrated community center for mental wellness, a community hall, a public transport interchange as well as a public vehicle park and public toilets.

A three-bedroom home on the higher floors of The Vertex in Cheung Sha Wan sold more than HK$14.42 million via tender yesterday.
The flat has an area of 639 square feet and sold for HK$22,567 per sq ft.
The tower is held by VMS Asset Management and Twin City and more flats may be offered for sale in the near future.
In Ma On Shan, Sino Land (0083) sold a 1,111-sq-ft four-bedroom flat at Silversands for HK$26.5 million or HK$23,853 per sq ft.
In South West Kowloon, a 741-sq-ft three-bedroom flat at The Grand Victoria II sold for HK$21.5 million.
The Grand Victoria is jointly developed by Sino Land, Wheelock Properties, K Wah International (0173), Shimao Property (0813) and SEA Holdings (0251).
In Kwun Tong, the first price list of 56 flats at Bal Residence -jointly developed by Lai Sun Development (0488) and the Urban Renewal Authority - was subscribed two times over. And in Tuen Mun, Novo Land's phase 2B had received more than 8,000 checks for the first batch of 352 flats, making them 21 times oversubscribed as of February 28. Novo Land is developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016).
In other news, a report by a property agnecy revealed that luxury property prices in Hong Kong fell 1.6 percent in 2022, leaving the city in the 89th spot among the 100 locations covered in the report. Nevertheless, Hong Kong's overall property prices remained the second most expensive in the world for the 16th consecutive year.

Wheelock sells 92 per cent of flats in second batch of Koko Rosso project in Lam Tin, despite higher prices
Wheelock Properties sold 148 of 160 flats on offer in the second launch of the project within three hours on Wednesday night
The developer raised the average price to HK$18,441 (US$2,349) per square foot, 0.5 per cent higher than the last round of sales on February 24
Hong Kong’s homebuyers are trickling back into the market.
Wheelock Properties sold 148, or 92 per cent, of the 160 flats on offer at its Koko Rosso project in Lam Tin within three hours after opening the sale at 9pm local time on Wednesday, according to agents. The company raised the average price of the current offer to HK$18,441 (US$2,349) per square foot, 0.5 per cent higher than the last round of sales on February 24.
“The sales have been strong, and there are many buyers,” said Ricky Wong, managing director at Wheelock. The response matched the bullish first launch of the 392-unit Koko Rosso project, when all 148 flats were snapped late last month.
The buoyant sale – despite the higher average price – underscored rising confidence in Hong Kong’s property market following the city’s abandonment of Covid-19 restrictions, the last of which was the mandatory wearing of face coverings on Wednesday.
The reopening of the border between Hong Kong and mainland China has raised hopes for the city’s battered property market, as buyers are seen anticipating an economic recovery following nearly three years of Covid-19 restrictions.
“The units on offer were sold by 11.30pm,” an agent said.
Hong Kong saw an uptick in the property market in February. Overall transactions increased 34.8 per cent month over month to 5,969 deals, hitting the highest level since June 2022, according to data released by another property agency on Wednesday.
The total value of the transactions also surged 35.1 per cent month over month to HK$43.9 billion, the highest since August 2022.
“The data showed a growing market sentiment after the border reopening,” agent said. “Buyers who turned to the home market before [Lunar New Year] led the rise in transactions, and the market retained its heat after that.”
Transactions should rise to around 7,000 in March thanks to a slower pace of interest-rate increases and the Hong Kong government’s decision to cut the ad valorem stamp duty, the agent said.
The latest batch of flats on offer at Koko Rosso range in size between 308 and 497 sq ft, according to Wheelock. The cheapest unit is priced at HK$6.06 million, after discounts.
“Most of the units for sale are priced below HK$10 million,” the agent said. “The flats have a good location and a walking distance from the subway station with a good view of the mountains and the sea.”
The strong sales also came in the wake of a stamp duty cut announced by the government last week.
Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po announced adjustments to Hong Kong’s ad valorem stamp duty, which will amount to HK$100 for homes worth up to HK$3 million, instead of up to HK$2 million previously. The changes to the stamp duty, which are on a sliding scale, apply to homes worth HK$10 million or less.
Given that the flats at Koko Rosso are being sold for lower than HK$10 million, the project was expected to benefit from the policy.
