50大甲廈首三季錄131宗買賣


有代理行數據顯示,今年首三季五十大指標甲廈合共錄得131宗買賣,較去年同期的51宗增1.6倍,成交樓面涉56.25萬方呎,按年升2.1倍。

按年升1.6

該行指出,今年首三季的成交量集中於九龍,期內共錄得78宗,佔整體約6成,其次為港島的27宗及新界的26宗。若以大廈劃分,沙田石門京瑞廣場共錄14宗,屬表現最好的大廈,其次為葵涌新都會廣場及中環中心,期內均各錄得12宗買賣成交。九龍區的成交較為分散,最多為尖東新文華中心的11宗及觀塘寧晉中心的7宗。

該行代理表示,本地疫情緩和,加上受惠去年低基數效應,令到今年首三季的指標甲廈交投大幅反彈。不過,近期的指標甲廈買賣成交有放緩的迹象,主要因為早前股市表現波動,加上近期多個甲廈新項目推出拆售,包括觀塘道368號、長沙灣荔枝角道888號,以及快將推出的黃竹坑宏基匯等,吸去部分市場購買力,令到二手指標甲廈交投略為放緩,但整體而言商廈市場氣氛仍然平穩。

該行另一代理指出,港島核心區甲廈成交量持續偏低,因為上述地區甲廈涉及銀碼較大,在商廈市況尚未復甦下,投資者偏向審慎,不欲斥巨資入市,反觀九龍及新界等地區甲廈銀碼較細,較易吸引新晉投資者入市,因而令到港島與新界九龍交投呈現兩極化。

今年暫錄24宗大手工廈成交 基金主導市場 屯門荃灣葵涌成目標

今年工廈交投熾熱,根據本報統計,今年以來市場暫錄24宗大手工廈買賣,較去年同期僅6宗,上升3倍,涉資高達171億,更是急升3.3倍。當中,外資基金主導市場,並以屯門、葵涌及荃灣為目標,頻購入全幢及大手工廈。

今年以來,市場暫錄24宗逾億元工廈買賣,除了有14宗全幢買賣,更不乏分散業權的大手成交,數目共10宗,最新一宗為SilkRoad Property Partners購入屯門恒威工業中心C座約九成業權,作價11.6億,根據土地註冊記錄,該廈地廠及多層全層樓面以9.46億成交,還有,該廈約187個車位以逾2.14億易手,業內人士指出,大廈樓面及車位分別登記,方便會計上安排,買家日後或不排除拆售車位。

上述該宗交易,論金額之高,於今年以來工廈排行榜,位踞第五位,至於最大宗買賣為,施羅德資本房地產與Bentall Green Oak買入荃灣有線電視大樓及One Midtown一籃子貨,排行第二位的為,東亞紗廠工業大廈全幢,由華潤物流以22.4億承接。

金額171億急升3.3

今年以來,大手工廈買賣以屯門、葵涌及荃灣最多,基金主導大市,數目共有6家,施羅德、嘉民亞洲基金、SilkRoad Property Partners、安祖高頓基金、黑石基金及ESR都相繼出手,可見他們看好工廈前景。

當中,ESR購入葵涌光輝凍倉,作價18億,安祖高頓基金斥14.35億,購入葵涌佳寶集團中心全幢。嘉民亞洲基金更先後購入位處觀塘、九龍灣及葵涌的物流中心及一籃子工廈,悉數為分散業權,合共涉資13.2億。

地產界人士表示,散業權工廈依然有價有市,基金打算在重新打造後,為物業增值,從而收取可觀回報,日後或轉售。

全幢及散業權皆受捧

代理表示,受惠於活化工廈2.0及標準金額先導計畫,全幢工廈交投明顯活躍,近月開始陸續有工廈在標準金額先導計畫下完成補地價,在比傳統補地價需時更短,大大降低補地價金額的不確定性下,將有助工廈加快活化,同時提升工廈物業的吸引力,有助支持工廈交投。此外,本港經濟逐漸復甦,但由於香港恢復全面通關仍未見明朗化,相信工廈租售價將保持平穩發展。

淺水灣地估值逾八億

近年政府全方面覓地,大幅增加房屋供應漸見成效,其中,南區淺水灣南灣道住宅地皮將於新一季推出,據業內人士指出,該項目屬市場罕有豪宅地皮供應,料掀大中小財團競逐,市場估值逾8億至14億,每呎樓面地價4萬至7.5萬。

罕有豪宅地皮供應

南區淺水灣南灣道地皮,地盤面積約為21097方呎,估計可建樓面約為18988方呎。有測量師指出,該住宅地皮位處南灣道上的一幅斜坡地,可步行往沙灘地皮,坐享開揚海景,屬市場罕有供應,加上項目投資金額不算高,故對大中小型發展商均具吸引力,預期估值約12.3億至14.2億,每呎樓面地價約6.5萬至7.5萬。

另一測量師稱,豪宅市場近期有價有市,料各大發展商對該地皮以積極態度競投,料每呎地價約4.1萬,市場估值約8億。

測量師表示,該項目位處傳統豪宅地段,屬市場罕有供應,料項目備受各大發展商垂青,尤其於區內具豪宅發展經驗的發展商參與意會較高,料以興建低密度洋房作主導,每呎地價約5萬,市場估值約9.5億。

Secondary market hit by policy wait

Secondary-market transactions over the long weekend fell to a second record low in the past six months ahead of the policy address announcement on Wednesday.

Property agency reported a 50 percent drop in the number of transactions among its top 10 housing estates.

Only four deals were struck in Ap Lei Chau's South Horizons, Quarry Bay's Kornhill and Tin Shui Wai's Kingswood Villas. A total of 11 deals were done over the National Day weekend starting Friday.

A wait-and-see attitude prevailed among secondary home buyers over the right time to enter the market with stronger indications of the government's housing policies on Wednesday casting uncertainty over the market, agent said.

A stark contrast to the dull secondary market was the primary-market frenzy.

Koko Reserve in Lam Tin saw inquiries from families planning to move from east Hong Kong Island and east Kowloon, and investors after the opening of show flats Saturday, said developer Wheelock.

The first batch of the low-rise Koko Reserve, the second phase of the Koko Hills development, will be sold via tenders from October 10 to December 31.

The round includes 24 three-to-four-bedroom flats with sellable areas of 776 to 1,171 square feet, and three penthouses with sellable areas of 1,755 to 1,992 sq ft and a rooftop.

That came as another two deals worth HK$32.9 million were terminated at the to-be-rebuilt Pavilia Farm III atop the MTR's (0066) Tai Wai Station.

A total of 53 deal terminations was reported as of yesterday at the New World Development (0017) project, 6 percent of the total number of flats sold.

In the secondary market, La Cite Noble in Tseung Kwan O saw the first-ever loss in three years. A 643-sq-ft flat with three bedrooms was sold after HK$1.3 million was shaved off the price. It was sold for HK$10.2 million, 12 percent lower than the HK$11.55 million paid in 2018.

In the commercial market, the number of deals at top 50 grade-A offices saw a 160 percent jump to 131 in the past three quarters, data from property agency showed.

US Federal Reserve vice chair Richard Clarida traded between US$1 million (HK$7.8 million) and US$5 million out of a bond fund into stock funds one day before chairman Jerome Powell issued a statement indicating potential policy action due to the worsening of the pandemic, Bloomberg News reported.

Clarida's trades were described in his 2020 financial disclosures, showing the shifting of funds out of a Pimco bond fund on February 27, 2020, and buying the Pimco StocksPlus Fund and the iShares MSCI USA Min Vol Factor exchange-traded fund in similar dollar ranges, on the same day.

The next day, Powell released a statement that said coronavirus "poses evolving risks to economic activity." He added that the Fed was "closely monitoring developments and their implications for the economic outlook."

"Vice chair Clarida's financial disclosure for 2020 shows transactions that represent a preplanned rebalancing to his accounts, similar to a rebalancing he did and reported in April 2019," a Fed spokesman said.

The Bloomberg report comes as two other Fed officials came under scrutiny for investment trades they made last year and announced their retirements on Monday.

Meanwhile, the International Monetary Fund's executive board will intensify its probe of managing director Kristalina Georgieva this week by separately interviewing her and investigators who said she pressured World Bank staff to alter data to favor China, insiders said.

The board will question lawyers from the WilmerHale firm today about their World Bank investigation report, three insiders said. The report alleged that Georgieva, as the bank's CEO in 2017, applied undue pressure on staff to alter data in the flagship "Doing Business" report to benefit China.

Georgieva, who has strongly denied the accusations, will appear before the board tomorrow, the day she is to deliver a virtual speech about the IMF and World Bank annual meetings October 11-17, two of the sources said.

The interviews could prove pivotal in either building or eroding IMF shareholder support for Georgieva.

New World Development sold three floors of Cheung Sha Wan building at near HK$1.2b

New World Development recorded yet another big-ticket transaction at its Grade A commercial building at 888 Lai Chi Kok Road in Cheung Sha Wan.

A financial institution, showing signs of robust interest, recently paid close to HK$1.2 billion for three floors of space for self-use, with an average price of about HK$17,500 per sq ft, setting a new record for per-square-foot price for the development.

A total of 70 percent of GFA sold at over HK$5.4 billion, paving way for West Kowloon's new core business district.

The newly sold floor space is on the higher-level floors, covering three full floors, each with an area ranging from 20,800 to 24,600 sq ft and a total floor area of nearly 68,000 sq ft.

888 Lai Chi Kok Road in Cheung Sha Wan is a 28-storey Grade A commercial building. It went on sale at the end of last year. The first batch of 30 units were all sold out within an hour.

So far, nearly 70 percent of the gross floor area of project has been sold, bringing in more than HK$5.4 billion, and establishing it as a highly sought-after development. Buyers include financial institutions, universities, medical practices and other professional services, as well as professional investors such as family offices.

The Cheung Sha Wan district has witnessed remarkable changes in recent years. Boasting complete transportation infrastructure and ancillary facilities, its convenient location and access include a half-hour drive to Hong Kong International Airport and the Shenzhen Bay Highway Bridge, promising great potential for transforming the area into a new core business district in West Kowloon.

As early as 2017, New World successively acquired three lots of commercial land in the district, with a total buildable floor area of approximately 1.9 million sq ft. The Grade A commercial building at 888 Lai Chi Kok Road has flexible spacing options and a standard full-floor building area of about 24,000 sq ft. It is expected to be completed in April 2022.

New World submits proposal to demolish and rebuild part of The Pavilia Farm project hit by construction defects

Company is awaiting approval from the Buildings Department to demolish and rebuild towers one and eight of the third phase of the project in Tai Wai, says Adrian Cheng

New World posts a nearly 6 per cent increase in full-year underlying profit to HK$6.98 billion

New World Development has submitted a proposal to demolish and rebuild part of The Pavilia Farm project that has been marred by construction defects, a top executive said on Thursday after the developer posted a full-year underlying profit increase of nearly 6 per cent.

The Hong Kong-listed developer also said that it was striving to help the government solve the city’s housing shortage problems.

The company has submitted a proposal to the Buildings Department to demolish and rebuild towers one and eight of the third phase of the development of its bestselling project in Tai Wai, said Adrian Cheng Chi-kong, executive vice-chairman and chief executive.

“After approval of the formal time to start work, an independent third-party team will monitor the process of demolition and rebuild,” Cheng said.

In early July, New World sent shock waves through the industry after it said it would tear down and rebuild two of the seven tower blocks under construction at the project above Tai Wai MTR station in the New Territories. The company said that this would set back the delivery schedule of phase three by nine months to March 2024. It also came up with compensation options and subsidies for affected buyers.

As of June 30, a total of 3,028 units in the project were sold, realising nearly HK$37.4 billion (US$4.8 billion) in sales proceeds, according to a filing to the Hong Kong stock exchange.

So far, 48 buyers have cancelled deals, or about 5 per cent in phase 3 of the project, with the compensation totalling around HK$829 million, according to the Post’s calculations, based on data from the Register of Transactions.

Cheng disclosed that New World had submitted a plan for the Land ­Sharing Pilot Scheme to the government for preliminary review. The land sharing scheme will be used to enhance the development potential of private land currently constrained by inadequate ­infrastructure.

New World, which has donated four land parcels to four NGOs for building some 2,000 units of transitional housing, is discussing plans to donate two to three more parcels of land for the project, Cheng said.

Cheng also said that New World had not received any instruction from Beijing on alleviating the city’s housing problem. Earlier this month Reuters reported that Chinese officials had told Hong Kong’s powerful tycoons that they should help solve the city’s housing shortage.

New World’s contracted sales in Hong Kong amounted to about HK$42.4 billion, more than double its target of HK$20 billion for the financial year ended June.

New World’s full-year underlying profit, which excludes changes in the valuation of properties, rose 5.9 per cent from a year ago to HK$6.98 billion. Net profit rose 6.9 per cent to HK$1.17 billion.

New World proposed a final dividend of HK$1.5 per share, 1.4 per cent higher compared with last year.

Separately, New World said that it sold three floors of a grade A commercial building under construction at 888 Lai Chi Kok Road in Cheung Sha Wan to a financial institution for nearly HK$1.2 billion. The building is expected to be ready in April next year.

麥當勞38 租旺角文華商場舖

13千呎每呎約127 跌幅約4

隨着疫情逐漸緩和,加上政府昨天派發第二批消費券,帶動民生消費穩定,令餐廳租舖相對活躍。消息指,麥當勞以約38萬租用旺角文華商場1樓3,000呎舖位,該複式舖曾先後由Gap及卓悅等租用,租金跌約4成。

市場消息指,旺角砵蘭街錄租務成交,涉及文華商場1樓,面積約3,000平方呎,以每月約38萬元租出,呎租約127元。該商場位於地標商場朗豪坊對面,亦鄰近港鐵站出口,人流相對暢旺。

朗豪坊舖約滿 搬移省成本

據了解,新租客為連鎖快餐店麥當勞,該餐廳原租用對面朗豪坊商場,如今租約期滿,搬至對面1樓商舖,可節省租金開支。

翻查資料,該舖位過往多年曾由不同租客承接,2011年商舖租務高峰期,美國休閒服連鎖店Gap,租用旺角文華商場多層,合共2.3萬平方呎舖位,月租高見300萬元。

上手租客 160萬租兩層

其後零售轉弱,品牌於2015年遷出,舖位空置接近9個月,業主重新把舖位拆細放租,並獲卓悅化粧品以約160萬元租用地下及1樓,約逾8,000平方呎樓面,呎租約200餘元,其後卓悅再遷出,業主遂再分拆出租,如今租出1樓3,000呎舖位,按呎租計,租金跌幅約4成,現時地下舖位仍在待租。

本港疫情緩和,社交距離措施有所放寬,加上政府派發消費劵,昨天便派發第二批消費券,直接帶動食肆生意,加上租金下跌,餐廳進駐核心區一、二綫地段個案有所增加。以旺角區為例,早前西洋菜南街2W至2Y地下,面積約2,000餘平方呎地舖,獲冰室以28.2萬元租用,早前開業。該舖曾由屈臣氏租用,在零售高峰期時,月租達60萬元,現租金跌逾半。

中信銀行35 租軒尼詩道舖

另外,銅鑼灣軒尼詩道525號逸園中心1及2樓,每層面積約3,000平方呎,合共約6,000平方呎,以每月約35萬元租出。據了解,新租客為中信銀行,該銀行現租用同區地舖,是次轉租可節省租金開支。

Hong Kong’s home buying sentiment upbeat as Nan Fung sells over 80 per cent of units at LP10 project in Lohas Park

Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation sold 150 of the 179 flats at the LP10 project at Lohas Park in Tseung Kwan O on Friday

Sales of newly completed homes in the city reached 1,700 units in September, 40 per cent higher compared with August, property agency data shows

Hong Kong’s homebuyers piled into the property market on the National Day holiday, snapping up more than 80 per cent of the flats on offer, encouraged by an improving local economy.

Market observers said buyers were rushing into the market to get ahead of rising prices and potentially higher mortgage rates, as the Hong Kong Monetary Authority was likely to raise interest rates in lockstep with the US Federal Reserve’s tapering measures, which may come sooner than anticipated.

Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation sold 150 of the 179 flats at the LP10 project at Lohas Park in Tseung Kwan O on Friday, after receiving more than 645 registrations of interest, or some 3.5 bids for each flat, according to sales agents.

The sentiment in the housing market now is robust because the city’s economy is recovering,” agent said. Many buyers, who were waiting on the sidelines last year, were entering the market, fearing that they may not able to afford homes if prices continue to rise, the agent added.

Hong Kong’s unemployment rate fell in August to its lowest level since the coronavirus pandemic began, with the economy buoyed by the government’s multibillion-dollar e-voucher scheme. The latest official figures show that the city’s jobless rate dropped to 4.7 per cent for the three-month period ending in August, the lowest since early 2020.

Hong Kong’s lived-in home prices hovered near a historical high in August after breaking a record in July that stood for nearly two years.

LP10, the 10th phase of a massive development at Lohas Park, comprises 893 flats in total, with the first batch launched in January.

The fourth batch released for sale on Friday included two and four-bedroom units ranging from 634 square feet to 1,523 sq ft.

The units were priced from HK$9.5 million (US$1.21 million) to HK$22.5 million, with the average price ranging from HK$15,032 per square foot to HK$19,559 per square foot.

“Earlier only those that were priced cheaper were in demand, but now even those homes tagged above HK$10 million are snapped quickly,” agent said. “It means people are very confident of the housing market.”

Last month Reuters reported that Chinese officials had told major Hong Kong developers that they should use their resources and influence to champion state interests. They were also reportedly asked to help solve Hong Kong’s chronic housing shortage, which has previously been blamed on land hoarding by the developers.

The Real Estate Developers Association has, however, denied coming under pressure from Beijing to solve the city’s housing woes. The association did stress that its members, which include Sun Hung Kai Properties, Henderson Land Development and CK Asset Holdings, were continuing to support the Hong Kong government in boosting housing supply and improving living standards.

“Even if the government is going to boost the supply of land and homes, the city won’t see a bunch of extra homes until five years later and it cannot ease the runaway home price immediately ,” the agent said.

Separately, sales of newly completed homes in the city reached 1,700 units in September, 40 per cent higher compared with August and the best since May when sales reached 2,200, according to a property agency.

The property agency expects sales of up to 2,500 new homes in October.

甲廈第三季247買賣 按季跌31%


第三季甲廈買賣回落,統計指,今年第三季錄247宗買賣,按季跌31%。

代理表示,今年第三季暫錄得約247宗寫字樓買賣個案,涉及總成交金額約79.71億元,對比上一季分別下跌約31%及55%。不過若扣除第二季的九龍灣國際展貿中心全幢約105億元交易,該季總成交金額約73.55億元,今季金額對比上一季度略見回升;而按2020年比較則見明顯改善,第三季成交宗數及金額較去年同期分別遞增約39%及93%。租賃市場走勢相對穩定,第三季暫有約1,704宗及1.58億元,與第二季數字相若。

該代理續表示,港島甲廈空置率未有明顯改善,中環區8月份甲廈空置率錄得約7.29%,不論對比去年同期或今年初數字都為高;金鐘8月份甲廈空置率則為8.79%。

8月中環甲廈空置率7.29%

該代理預測,第四季寫字樓市場整體表現視乎通關情況而定,若維持目前狀況,商廈市場氣氛會維持偏弱,料第四季買賣成交量會保持平穩約300宗,成交金額則會維持約150億元水平。而寫字樓租金就因空置情況未能明顯改善而持續受壓,預計第四季租金會下跌約5%,成交宗數則在1,500宗左右。

商廈8月量升價跌 錄118登記

8月份商廈買賣放緩,有代理行統計指,8月商廈買賣登記錄118宗。

該行代理表示,股市走下坡加上內地打擊多個行業板塊,本港商廈買家有轉趨審慎的傾向。根據土地註冊處數據,2021年8月份全港共錄118宗商廈買賣登記 (數字主要反映2至4星期前商廈市場實際市況),較7月份的117宗微升1宗,為連續6個月在逾百宗的高水平窄幅徘徊,反映過去半年商廈市道走勢平穩。

不過,8月份出現量升值跌的情況,主因是7月份曾有1宗涉資24億元的全幢巨額登記拉升基數所致,故導致8月份商廈買賣登記金額大幅回落36%,只錄約27.09億元。至於,8月份最矚目的單一登記項目為中環中心25樓全層,涉及合約金額逾6.74億元;其次為銅鑼灣耀華街39號全幢,涉及登記金額達3.6億元。

尖沙咀佐敦區最活躍

按物業價格劃分,在7個價格組別當中,錄得4升3跌。在升幅者中,以5,000萬至1億元以內組別的2倍升幅最顯著,月內登記量由前月的3宗升至上月9宗;而2,000萬至5,000萬元以內組別亦升18%,錄得13宗登記;至於登記量最活躍的是介乎200萬至1,000萬元以內的兩個組別,月內分別錄得37宗及34宗,按月分別跌3%及升3%,表現相對平穩;惟1億元或以上的大額登記則大減33%至只得2宗。

至於以地區劃分,在該行觀察的11個分區當中,共有5區的登記量按月有所上升。當中以九龍灣區及沙田區的1.33倍升幅最顯著,兩者均由前月只有3宗增至上月的7宗。此外,尖沙咀/佐敦區錄得25宗登記,按月升92%,並成為8月份登記量最活躍的觀察區;而北角/炮台山區的登記量亦按月升75%,錄得7宗買賣。至於逆市錄的跌幅較顯著的地區是西營盤/堅尼地城區,由7月的9宗跌至8月的「零登記」,成為表現最差的觀察區。

代理指出,過去一季,港股反覆偏軟,加上內地對多個行業予以整頓,窒礙投資氣氛,連帶本地商廈市道亦受影響。綜觀9月份截至26日,商廈買賣登記暫時只有約72宗,走勢反映買家入市轉趨緩慢,預料全月最終登記難以再破百宗,或回落逾兩成,至約90宗左右,屆時將創7個月新低,並為期內首度失守百宗水平。

商廈前景好 市場連環大手成交

整體投資氣氛轉好,而商廈買賣亦增加,近日市場連環錄得大手商廈成交,入市包括用家及投資者,反映仍看好商廈前景。

近日商廈買賣市場稍轉好,其中以甲廈樓花最旺,不乏大額買賣。新世界 (00017) 旗下荔枝角道888號錄大手成交,項目最高3層,每層樓面介乎2.08萬至2.46萬平方呎,總樓面近6.8萬平方呎,以約12億元成交,呎價約1.75萬元,屬呎價新高。消息稱,新買家為一家中資銀行,以南洋商業銀行呼聲最高。

另外,較早前同系新創建 (00659) 以13.67億元,購入18樓至21樓共4層,總樓面96,744平方呎,呎價約14,130元。當中,新創建間接全資附屬公司富通保險佔19樓及20樓兩層,涉資6.79億元,總樓面47,712平方呎。

荔枝角道888號於去年尾發售,至今累售近7成樓面,套現逾54億元。買家方面,包括金融機構、高等院校、醫生或其他專業服務,亦有家族辦公室等專業投資者。

市況轉好,發展商趁勢推售商廈樓花,而億京旗下觀塘道368號上星期開售,並錄得大手成交,涉及項目極高層33、35及36樓,其中36樓為平台特色單位,3層合共以約4.5億元成交。據了解新買家為有「手套大王」之稱的葉建明。

項目設有7間商舖及29層寫字樓,地庫設有3層停車場,寫字樓建築面積由654至9,566平方呎。項目上星期先推出9層樓面,呎價約1.1萬元起,反應不俗。

灣仔莊士企業大廈多層 4億沽

至於乙廈市場上,亦錄大額買賣,灣仔莊士企業大廈多層樓面易手,當中涉及項目5至23樓其中18層樓面,其中16至24樓9層,屬酒店用途,提供500間房。項目總樓面約44,829平方呎,項目以4.145億元成交,呎價約9,257元。據了解,買家為投資者。翻查資料,波叔早於2014年以約3.6億元,向投資者紀寶購入灣仔莊士企業大廈15層樓面,其後再分階段購入3層,合共持有18層樓面,總涉資約4.32億元。如今家族以4.15億元沽出該批樓面,仍蝕約1,700萬元離場。

分析指,受疫情影響,整體商廈買賣去年至本年初交投淡靜,而今年中疫情緩和,投資氣氛改善,而相比起舖位及工廈,商廈交投仍相對少。由於不少商廈呎價回調,而甲廈新盤亦具一定吸引力,令用家及投資者漸留意,相信商廈成交可望持有改善。

廖偉麟睇好寫字樓 逾億入市九龍灣商廈

投資者觸覺向來敏銳,正八集團廖偉麟 (Jeffrey) 近日斥逾億元,低價購入九龍灣企業廣場三期單位,他謂看好通關後寫字樓反彈,持有單位至少升值逾3成。

高層1.6萬呎樓面 呎價8900

日前九龍灣企業廣場三期高層全層,面積約1.61萬平方呎,以約1.43億易手,呎價約8,900元,由廖偉麟承接。Jeffrey一直喜歡投資甲廈,惟少於東九龍入市,今次入市只因一個「平」字,「呎價不足9,000元,高峰期該廈呎價達1.5萬元以上,如今大幅回調值得入市。」他指,準備為單位裝修,待通關便有價有市,「通關後,內地資金傳統上投資寫字樓為主,而該層樓面享全海景,正合內地用家。我估計通關後,單位至少升值35至40%。」

近日股市波動,Jeffrey認為暫對工商舖買賣影響不算大,他料明年市況明顯反彈,「中港正商討通關,我估明年初有機會。現時我仍密切留意市場,今年仍有機會動用35億至5億元入市。」

尖東新文華中心 間隔實用配套齊

尖東區商廈向來受用家歡迎,其中新文華中心,周邊配套齊全,大廈單位更望開揚景觀,以望噴水池景單位最受用家歡迎。

新文華中心在80年代初落成,設於尖東百周年紀念花園旁,屬於尖東區最多人流的地段,同時坐享港鐵站優勢,由紅磡、尖東及尖沙咀港鐵站步行至該廈,約10至15分鐘步程,加上鄰近紅隧交通交滙處,地理位置十分方便,方便上班人士出入。

每層樓面約1.99萬呎

大廈由A座及B座組成,物業樓高13層,辦公室樓層由3樓起,每層樓面約1.99萬平方呎,屬區內具規模商廈。物業開則呈正方形,間隔亦實用,大部分單位屬長形。以A座標準間隔為例,每層設有20個單位,位於每層四角的13、8、3、18室,擁多邊窗,視野相對開揚,惟單位近出入口設有小玄關位置。

景觀方面以A座較為優勝,其中向百周年紀念花園單位,景觀最為優質,主要分布於1至3、及18至20號單位,可望園景及噴水池景。另B座部分單位,可望紅隧及紅磡方向,感覺開揚。至於其他單位,主要望區內市景及樓景。

8月至今錄4宗成交

另外,大廈亦設有2層商場,舖位用戶以食肆為主,加上受新冠肺炎影響,不少新派食肆成功進駐,為上班一族提供更好的美食選擇。

成交方面,新文華中心為今年尖東買賣成交最多物業,8月至今錄4宗成交,其中8月份B座低層20室,面積約792平方呎,以約850萬元成交,呎價約10,732元。對上一宗買賣為9月,B座商層12室,面積約951平方呎,以約1,142萬元易手,呎價約1.2萬元。

共享工作間再現擴張 非核心商業區可望受惠

共享工作間於數年前開始在香港出現,並大規模擴張,至經濟逆轉始收縮,再經歷新冠疫情一役,自然被市場憂慮此市場會否進一步收縮。答案是:不會,反而再現新一浪的擴張潮。

過去大半年,多家共享工作間重拾擴張步伐,主要原因是市場對靈活工作空間的需求增加。始終疫症於全球仍未完全受控,經濟前景未明,不少企業對經營前景仍未感明朗,難以估計未來2至3年需要多少寫字樓樓面,加上,共享工作間均已裝修,附設辦公設施,企業毋須為租用辦公室承擔裝修費,因而傾向租用租期靈活的共享工作間。

中環上環出租率 超逾90%

據了解,近期中環、上環的共享工作間及商務中心的出租率均超過90%,有一家共享工作間去年於尖沙咀承租了5萬平方呎的樓面,開業9個月之後,出租率已高達95%,遂決定於近期承租額外2.5萬平方呎的樓面擴充。

與上一輪擴充潮不同的地方是,以往共享工作間只會考慮傳統核心商業區,現時則會考慮進駐其他非核心商業區,最重要的是區內是否有足夠人口及寫字樓供應。疫情雖然令遙距工作的概念廣獲接受,然而,香港居住空間狹小,難以長期在家工作,營運商看好市場對此類非核心商業區的共享工作間有需求。新近便有一家營運商租用沙田的寫字樓擴張。

另一趨勢是有別於以往以高價搶租,現時營運商與業主簽署富彈性的租約,個別業主願意採用利潤分紅模式,此合作模式對雙方均有利,因此新一浪的共享工作間擴充將較以往持久及穩健。目前共享工作間佔香港整體寫字樓樓面約不到2%,但倫敦及紐約等市場已分別高達7%和4%,共享工作間於香港將不乏發展潛力。

大業主為大廈增值 設共享間

值得注意的是,除了營運商外,大業主也陸續在寫字樓開設共享工作間,認為此舉能為租客提供多一項選擇,為大廈增值。現時不少租客因有短期項目,或因應疫情裝修辦公室配合新要求,需要額外的樓面,若物業能提供共享工作間,租客便不用遷離該廈,有助業主留住租客。

大業主開設共享工作間的趨勢料將持續。近期整體寫字樓市場租賃交投已轉趨活躍,核心區租金未必會如以往般優惠,營運商將積極在非核心商業區擴張,東九龍等商業區將會受惠,對出租率及租金均有支持。

中環巨鋪租期長達25年花旗銀行售後租回

花旗銀行早前以售後租回形式沽出中環畢打街巨鋪,作價7.1億,該租約條款終曝光,租約期長達25年,屬近年市場罕見的長年期租約。

據土地註冊處資料顯示,中環畢打街20號會德豐大廈地下A鋪及B鋪、地庫及外牆,於上月初以獲花旗銀行 (香港) 有限公司租用,租約期由今年9月9日起,為期10年,同時,租戶可續租5次,每次為期3年,換而之,租約期為梗約10年、另加15年生約,合共長達25年。

10年梗約 15年生約

然而,最新資料尚未顯示該鋪最新租金水平,據業內人士指出,上述鋪位為銀行契,故該鋪早前可以「理想價」7.1億易手,主要依靠售後租回形式作推售,料上址每月租金約150萬,以易手價計,租金回報約2.5厘。

早前以7.1億易手

資料顯示,該鋪建築面積約11924方呎,呎價約59543元,買家為資深投資者「台灣張」張彥緒,花旗銀行早於38年前進駐該鋪,及後於2002年10月以1.84億售出,當時帳面賺近億元,售後租回,惟隨後在2年後,即2004年12月以3.9億回購,至今持貨17年,今番帳面獲利3.2億。

BAKEHOUSE每月18萬租漢口道鋪

尖沙嘴漢口道一地鋪,以每月18萬租出,平均呎租129元,新租客為瑞士烘焙名店BAKEHOUSE,作「前鋪後工場」用途。

業主:簽六年長約

上址為漢口道44號漢威大廈地下B號鋪,屬於單邊鋪位,新租客簽下6年長約,由今年10月1日「起標月租」18萬,至最後一年加至31萬,該舖業主形容:「江山代有人才出,新租客BAKEHOUSE來自瑞士,擊中新一代消費模式,雖然每件餅賣50元至100元,卻成功打進年輕人市場,除了美味外,更着眼於打卡用途,拍拖時的分享!」

業主續說,欣賞新租客的魄力,大家惺惺相惜,這盤生意「前鋪後工場」,即場烘焙製作,絕非網上可取代的;新租客看中漢口道,認為此街道很有FEEL,雖然位處核心區,卻給人一種舒適的感覺;他為了支持新租客,亦將該鋪位電力三相60M提升至三相160M,適合新租客使用。

平均呎租129

上述鋪位建築面積約1400方呎,汪敦敬於今年2月購入,作價8380萬,新租約由今年10月1日至2027年9月30日,現時起標每月18萬,並提供一個月免租期,由10月1日至10月31日,翌年10月加至每月20萬,第3及第4年月租25萬,第5及第6年分別為28萬及31萬,以此推算,現時回報2.6厘,5年後可望將回報提升至4.4厘。

波斯富街鋪每呎439元減40% 銅鑼灣核心區租金重返15年前

銅鑼灣波斯富街地鋪獲珠寶行以9.5萬續租,較舊租金急挫約40%,呎租約439元,重返約15年前水平;據業內人士指出,中港兩地至今尚未通關,受遊客絕迹影響下,珠寶行等奢侈品承租力銳減,料核心區鋪位租金持續調整。

市場消息指出,銅鑼灣波斯富街77至83號地鋪,面積216方呎,以約9.5萬獲珠寶行續租,呎租約439.8元。據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主早於1984年以130萬購入,以溫姓人士持有,及後該鋪再錄數次買賣,惟料為內部轉讓,此外,資料亦顯示,該鋪上一段租約於2015年,當時租金16萬,故最新租金較舊租急挫約4成,此外,該鋪於2013年曾以26萬租出,故是次租金較高峰期回落約63%。

珠寶行每月9.5萬續約

有代理表示,上述租金重回約15年前水平;盛滙商舖基金創辦人李根興指出,受疫情等因素打擊,銅鑼灣一綫街道鋪位租金較高峰期回落約6至7成。故上述續租租金屬合理水平,環顧現時中港兩地至今尚未通關,於遊客絕迹下,單靠本地消費力實在難以支撐奢侈品市場,拖累珠寶行等奢侈品承租力銳減。

高峰期回落約63%

事實上,該街道早前已頻錄減租,資料顯示,銅鑼灣波斯富街57號地鋪,面積約758方呎,早前以約9.2萬獲花店承租,呎租約121元,據土地註冊處資料顯示,該鋪業主於1996年以3268萬購入,以公司名義FORTUNE ROAD DEVELOPMENT LIMITED登記,證冊董事為資深投資者、俊文珠寶創辦人陳俊文等人,同時,資料亦顯示,上述鋪位於2017年7月獲連眼鏡零售商以20.8萬承租,故租金較上手租金下跌56%,此外,該鋪於2010年租金為26萬,故最新租金較11年前更低,反映市況仍然疲弱。

據業內人士指出,雖然疫情回穩,對鋪位市場具一定支持作用,惟利好因素主要集中於飲食業,銅鑼灣波斯富街商戶以零售為主導,現時租金跌勢仍未結束,並較高峰期回落約3至4成,惟近期租金跌幅已明顯放緩,現時該街道吉鋪數目約10間。

Sun Hung Kai backs development of green belt and wetland buffer zones

The government should make optimal use of green belt sites as 10 percent of such land can build 1.2 million public housing units, developer Sun Hung Kai Properties suggested.

It was among the six suggestions made by the developer on easing the city’s land and housing problem.

The property giant said Hong Kong does not have insufficient land, but the government should release those land from red tapes that are affecting the land and housing supply.

It therefore proposed the government to make good use of the green belt’s potential, and review the green belt areas, especially those owned by the government.

“Some of those green belt areas can be repurposed to build subsidized housing including Starter Homes to help middle class families purchase a property,” it proposed.

The property giant also said releasing 10 percent of the green belt area already means 1,600 hectares of land.

Given the development density in recent new development areas, where 750 flats can be built per hectare, 1,600 hectares of land would mean 1.2 million public housing units, which would already mean 1.2 million in public housing flats, according to Sun Hung Kai.

“If the government releases 25 percent, or 4,000 hectares, of the green belt area, it already means increasing the area for residential use in Hong Kong by 50 percent,” it added.

The developer also said the government had not reviewed wetland conservation policies for over 20 years, and the government back then simply marked all land 500 meters from the wetland conservation areas as wetland buffer areas.

“The planning was very arbitrary, while the boundary for the wetland buffer areas in the Town Planning Board Guidelines and Environmental Impact Assessment Ordinance are different, which leads to much of the land being frozen,” it wrote.

Sun Hung Kai also said many fish ponds in the wetland conservation area and wetland buffer area have been infested with sewage, weeds and even invasive plants, making people question the ecological value of the areas.

Many ponds in the wetland buffer area were even filled with concrete and now became warehouses, and the environment there is getting worse as the areas were used for storage, it said.

The company hopes the government could fix the wetland planning guidelines as soon as possible to achieve a win-win situation of “conservation and development”.

Bad news for Hong Kong tenants as rents predicted to chart record-high in coming months

Improving economic outlook and potential return of mainland Chinese students and job-market entrants could spur leasing demand

The Merton in Kennedy Town registered a 15.4 per cent jump in August, the most among 133 private housing estates compiled by property agency

Housing rents in Hong Kong are expected to recoup all the losses caused by the social unrest and the Covid-19 pandemic, with analysts predicting a record in the coming months as the economic outlook brightens.

Rents climbed for a sixth month in August for a cumulative gain of 4.7 per cent to 182.2, according to an index published by the Rating and Valuation Department. The index reached an all-time high of 200.1 in August 2019 before crashing in the subsequent nine months amid anti-government protests.

Hong Kong’s economy grew 7.5 per cent in the second quarter from a year earlier, and official reports since June showed retail sales jumped in July and August while the outlook for exports has improved over the past five quarters. The government is working to reopen the border with mainland China, although this may take more than four to five months, a government health adviser said.

“As the economy recovers, unemployment [rate] falls, rents are expected to rise,” property agent said. The agent expects that the record to be broken over the next six to 12 months. “What’s more, if the border really reopens [further], even more mainlanders will come.”

The border reopening could pave the way for the return of mainland Chinese students and new job-market entrants to Hong Kong, fanning demand for housing near universities, according to another property agency. Recent sales by homeowners have also displaced their tenants, pushing them into the market, it added.

The Merton in Kennedy Town, located near the Hong Kong University, saw the biggest rental increase among 133 private housing estates tracked by the property agency. It jumped 15.4 per cent in August to HK$49.54 per square foot, data compiled by the agency showed.

“More people are renting flats, while supply is not catching up to fulfil the demand,” agent said. “We have clearly told tenants that there are not many [listings]. The rent has to be more expensive.”

The agent echoed the view. Rents could increase by 5 per cent in the fourth quarter before charging past the old record over the next six to 12 months, the agent added.

One of the hottest areas is expected to be the southern side of Hong Kong Island, another agent said. There’s a premium for properties with ample built-up areas, coveted by people who are spending more time working from home.

One example is a 2,580 sq ft flat in Stanley Knoll, where an unrenovated unit is on the market for HK$150,000 (US$19,264) a month, some 25 per cent more than a year ago. Similarly, the asking price at Grosse Pointe Villa in Stanley has risen by a quarter to HK$130,000 over the same period.

“We expect rents to continue to rise 5 to 10 per cent over the next 12 months,” agent said. “Increases will be higher for those properties on the south side [of Hong Kong Island] with ample outdoor space as these properties tend to meet Covid lifestyle demand.”

甲廈空置樓面達900萬呎 歷來最多


新冠肺炎疫情雖緩和,但對商廈租務影響仍然嚴重。有外資代理行指,目前全港甲廈空置樓面900萬呎歷來最多,年內租金已跌約6.2%。該行料未來一年甲廈租金仍向下,跌約5%,調整期至少兩年。

該行數據指,第三季甲級寫字樓租賃量達130萬平方呎,與上一季度基持平,導致年初至今的總租賃量略低於340萬平方呎。第三季吸納量進一步收縮至負119,320平方呎,為連續第8個季度出現負吸納量,打破了房地產歷史上最長的下行周期記錄。

空置率方面,甲廈整體空置率再上升0.2個百分點至11%,將整體空置樓面推高至900萬平方呎的最新紀錄,當中以港島東的空置率躍升得最快,達8.5%,創16年新高。

該行代理認為,由於目前尚未通關,新需求仍較弱,若明年通關,中資機構來港可推動甲廈租務,該代理料未來一年租金料跌約5%。

甲廈租金調整期 至少兩年

另外,該代理指未來兩年為甲廈供應高峰期,有逾600萬平方呎,連同現有空置樓面,消化需時,估計甲廈租金調整期至少兩年。

商舖市場上,近期商舖租務有所改善,但第三季的核心區街舖空置率繼續上升,當中旺角的租賃壓力最大,空置率升2.9個百分點至18.9%。尖沙咀區的表現較為正面,空置率下降2.9個百分點至20.3%。

至於租金方面,第三季各區租金表現平穩,個別如中環區因租務多,租金更按季升1.6%。

該行另一代理指,租務需求大部分來自餐飲行業,其次是個人護理和化粧品,以及休閒服裝品牌,它們合共佔第三季租務的32%。後市上,該代理料核心區的空置率將會維持在高位一段時間,未來一年租金有望輕微回升約5%。

今年大手買賣 工廈佔38%

投資市場今年向好,代理指出,今年大手買賣中,涉及工廈成交佔約38%比例最高,反映工廈因呎價低、兼具價值提升機會,故獲基金及財團承接,該代理料今年第四季仍以工廈最值得看好。

流標東涌商業地 重返今年賣地表

去年曾經流標的東涌商業地,滾存至本財政年度賣地表內,預計將為區內新增約126萬平方呎商業樓面,憧憬未來鄰近的港鐵東涌東站等配套落成,該帶有望成為東涌新商貿區。

提供126萬呎商業樓面

據發展局局長黃偉綸上周公布本財政年度第三季的《賣地計劃》時透露,希望視乎11月份中環海濱商業地的結果,再考慮推商業地招標,其中包括東涌新填海區的57區商業地。該地皮屬東涌市地段第45號,位於東涌迎東邨東面,亦是東涌新填海區首幅推出的私人發展用地,其地盤面積約13.3萬平方呎,目前坐落於「商業 (1)」地帶,以地積比率約9.5倍發展,預計提供約126萬平方呎商業樓面,並可興建樓高30至40層的商廈,可作酒店、辦公室及商場等用途。

東涌東站落成 料推動商貿發展

地皮的前方為東涌第100區的公營房屋用地,東面為未來港鐵東涌東站,交通相對方便。據最新文件透露,車站將於2023年動工,並可望於2029年竣工,但由於東涌填海計劃仍在進行,項目周邊仍然沙塵滾滾。

值得留意的是,由於疫情重創經濟,該地皮於去年10月截標,最終宣告流標,並由上一個財政年度的賣地表滾存至本年度賣地計劃內,當時地皮的市場估值約37.8億至56.7億元,每呎樓面地價約3,000至4,500元。

事實上,東涌新市鎮擴展區計劃分為東部及西部兩部分,當中東涌東的填海區,料提供多達918萬平方呎樓面面積,當中近6成,即約538萬平方呎樓面,將作辦公室用途。而於2014年由世茂集團 (00813) 及明發集團 (00846) 以約18.3億元投得東涌第53A區酒店地,該地皮可建樓面約61.05萬平方呎,每平方呎樓面地價約2,998元,並已經發展為東涌世茂喜來登酒店,及東涌世茂福朋喜來登酒店,共提供約1,200間客房。

另外,新世界 (00017) 早前亦投得赤鱲角機場的航天城項目第2期的營運權,並命名為「11 SKIES」,將可提供逾400萬平方呎的商業及娛樂設施樓面,項目於明年開始會分階段落成。據了解,項目總樓面達57萬平方呎,設3幢甲級寫字樓,而零售餐飲部分佔約266萬平方呎,將有逾800間商店進駐。

另一代理行綜合土地註冊處資料顯示,工商鋪首三季註冊量共錄5418宗,較去年同期躍升1.2倍,金額則錄744.86億,按年升1.5倍,主因受今年大手成交熾熱所帶動。

9月份整體註冊宗數513宗,按月跌12.2%,金額錄76.97億,按月下跌33.4%。若按金額劃分,成交量最多的為500萬或以下物業。

代理表示,外資基金積極入市,工廈最受捧,尤其全幢工廈成交,該代理認為,疫情持續穩定,惟股市波動,全面通關未明朗化,預計成交量保持每月約500宗水平。

Grade A office occupancy drops for eight consecutive seasons

Total occupancy of Grade A offices contracted for eight consecutive seasons in the third quarter, breaking the record for the longest downward cycle in the history of Hong Kong real estate, property agency said.

The leasing volume of Grade A office space stayed flat at 1.3 million square feet in the third quarter, but the overall vacancy rate increased by another 0.2 percentage points to 11 percent, resulting in a new record high of 9 million square feet for the overall vacant floor space, the commercial real estate services company said.

The continued improvement in leasing momentum slowed down the rent decline in this quarter, which had fallen by 5.3 percent in the first half, while the decline in the third quarter was just 0.9 percent, the agency added.

Rents held stable for retail shops in the quarter as the market sentiment improved, but the vacancy rate of street shops in the core areas continued to rise.

Among them, the vacancy rate of Mong Kok jumped by 2.9 percentage points quarter-to-quarter to 18.9 percent. So far this year, street shop rents in Central, Causeway Bay and Mong Kok have all recorded increases, ranging from 0.7 percent to 3.2 percent, the agency stated.

Bank rolls out green loans for Lam Tin flats

Bank of China (Hong Kong) (2388) will provide green mortgage loans for Wheelock Properties' Koko Reserve in Lam Tin which has received green building certification.

Buyers who successfully get the green mortgage loans will enjoy an additional HK$6,888 cash rebate, BOCHK said.

The lender joined hands with Sino Land (0083) to offer similar loans last month.

Koko Reserve, the second stage of the Koko Hills, will open sales on Sunday by tender, offering 28 three- and four-bedroom homes with areas starting at 700 square feet.

Koko Hills will also offer 100 flats for sale on the same day, of which 85 will be launched in the form of price lists.

Meanwhile, Centralcon Properties' The Arles in Fo Tan revealed its first price list of 268 homes at an average price of HK$18,888 per sq ft after discounts. The cheapest flat - a 33- sq-ft one-bedroom unit - costs HK$6.17 million after discounts, or HK$18,654 per sq ft.

The first batch of one- to three-bedroom flats range from 331sq ft to 945 sq ft. The project offers 1,335 homes, from studios to three-bedroom flats, with areas of 228 sq ft to 2,001 sq ft.

Also launching a new price list is Nan Fung Group's Lohas Park's phase 10 in Tseung Kwan O. The sixth price list offers 101 units ranging from 447 sq ft to 1,526 sq ft.

Together with the previous ones, a total of 183 homes will be put on market on Saturday.

This came as a property agency said that the net absorption of Grade A offices remained negative for eight consecutive seasons in the third quarter, breaking the record for the longest downward cycle in the history of Hong Kong real estate.

The leasing volume of Grade A office space stayed flat at 1.3 million square feet in the third quarter, but the overall vacancy rate increased by another 0.2 percentage points to 11 percent, resulting in a new record high of 9 million square feet for the overall vacant floor space, the commercial real estate services company said.

The luxury leasing market presented a mixed picture in this quarter, with rents on Hong Kong Island recording a rise of 1 percent, while Kowloon and the New Territories declined slightly by 0.1 percent and 0.8 percent, respectively, data from another property agency showed.

Rare residential plot in Repulse Bay likely to draw strong bids from developers as outlook for luxury housing improves

Worth an estimated HK$900 million, the small plot is the first in Repulse Bay to come up for government tender in nine years

It has the potential to be developed into a handful of large luxury houses, say surveyors

A rare plot of residential land coming up for auction in Repulse Bay is likely to attract the interest of developers as the luxury housing market improves amid an easing of the coronavirus pandemic, according to market observers.

It is one of two parcels designated for low-density residential development to be sold in the Hong Kong government’s land sales programme in the three months to December, the other being in Tai Po.

“The residential plot in Repulse Bay would be the most sought after [of the two] by developers,” property agent said. “It is rare to see a residential site in Repulse Bay up for government tender.”

The site is small and likely to yield just a handful of large, luxury houses, surveyors said.

The last government land auction in Repulse Bay was in 2012 when Tai Cheung Holdings won a site near 110 Repulse Bay Road for HK$1.67 billion (US$210 million).

The Tai Po parcel, which is likely to yield about 200 flats, is valued at HK$1.4 to HK$1.8 billion, while the Repulse Bay site is worth around HK$900 million, according to another property agency. The homes built on the Tai Po plot may fetch HK$16,000 to HK$19,000 per square foot while those in Repulse Bay may go for HK$45,000 to HK$55,000 per sq ft.

The Tai Po parcel may attract five to eight tenders while the Repulse Bay one could see more than 10 developers bidding, surveyor said.

“After the pandemic has stabilised [locally] this year, the luxury housing market has gradually become active. The price of this land is not large in the luxury housing market,” surveyor said. “The price is likely to have an indicative effect on the luxury housing market in the Southern district.”

The plot covers an area of 21,097 square feet, with a gross floor area of about 18,987 square feet.

Another surveyor said that the site in Repulse Bay is “the most eye-catching [of the two]”.

The scale is small and can accommodate three to four houses, the surveyor said.

“As the project is located in a rare, traditional luxury residential section of Hong Kong Island, it has the potential to be built into super luxury houses,” another surveyor said.

The land, on South Bay Road, is surrounded by well-known developments such as Chinachem Group’s The Lily.

The exclusive Repulse Bay has counted many celebrities and tycoons among its residents through the years. They include actress Carol “Dodo” Cheng Yu-ling, singer Jacky Cheung, the late gaming magnate Stanley Ho and Cheng Yu-tung of New World Development.

One recent land transaction there was the private sale of 92 Repulse Bay Road in 2020. It went for HK$550 million to CSI Properties and Asia Standard International Group.

There were seven transactions involving lived-in homes in Repulse Bay in August, a relatively high number, compared to four a year earlier and zero in September of 2020 as the pandemic riled the market.

A house measuring 3,871 sq ft, with garden, sold for HK$438 million at Overbays of 71 Repulse Bay Road in July.

The Tai Po site is much larger, at 150,696 square feet, with an estimated gross land area of about 226,044 square feet.

Surveyor said that the neighbouring areas are mainly quiet, low-density residential developments such as Constellation Cove and Savanna Garden.

星光行呎租23元低20%

疫情持續平穩,為工商鋪市場釋出正面訊息,惟甲廈租金仍彈升乏力,消息指,尖沙嘴星光行中層單位,於交吉近一年後,以每呎約23元租出,較租金低約20%,低市價約兩成。

交吉近一年租出

市場消息指出,尖沙嘴星光行高層低層21A室,面積858方呎,以每呎約23元租出,月租約19734元。據代理指出,上址早前獲財務公司以每呎29元租用,惟於去年底已遷出,故交吉至今近一年,租金亦下跌約20%,亦較市價低約兩成。

據代理資料顯示,該甲廈近期成交為高層25A至02室,面積824方呎,於上月以23896元租出,平均呎租約29元,較是次租金相差約20%。

觀塘茂興24%業權叫價1.6億

觀塘重建活化項目吸引,逐決定聯合放售位處區內核心街道的偉業街205號茂興工業大廈一籃子單位,涉及共約24%業權份數,叫價約1.6億。

平均呎價6485

有代理表示,觀塘偉業街205號茂興工業大廈一籃子物業,主要集中於大廈低層,佔大廈23.95%業權,涉及總樓面面積約24672方呎,意向價約1.6億,平均呎價約6485元。該廈極具收購重建潛力,毗鄰的偉業街203號同得仕大廈,曾於去年初獲批放寬地積比率20%至14.4倍,將建成新式工廈。大廈對面即為新地發展的甲廈 One Harbour Square Two Harbour Square

該代理續稱,觀塘區內頻錄廠廈改規劃重建,令區內進一步變天。而該期錄得的業主聯合出售全幢工廈為高良工業大廈,由理想集團牽頭發展,早於2006年起逐步收購該廈業權,累計共持有約66.6%,繼而說服其他小業主一起出售,最終以約1.9億易手,理想集團在該項目上賣樓收益佔逾1.28億。

活化工廈兩項措施延長至2024年

政府於2018年推出新一輪的活化工廈措施 (下稱活化工廈2.0),包括容許合資格工廈重建項目的地積比率,經過城規會准許後放寬兩成,以及豁免整體改裝工廈支付相關的地契豁免書費用。行政長官林鄭月娥昨天宣布,一併把兩項措施延長至2024年10月。

其中有關放寬發展密度的措施,適用於1987年前落成,位於主要市區或新市鎮,用地地帶屬於住宅以外的工廈,以重建作工業或商業樓宇;政府2018年公布時,初步表示措施為期3年,有關申請須在2018年10月10日起3年內向城規會提出申請,並要在申請獲批後補地價,意味該項原定本月到期的計劃,將延長3年。

至於有關整幢改裝的措施,本來有效期為2019年4月2日起為期3年,意味原定2022年4月初截止,現延長約兩年半時間。

市場人士表示,過去兩年,政府推出活化工廈2.0政策的成效顯著,其中重建項目可以獲得20%額外地積比等措施,為業主提供誘因,把舊工廈重新發展為數據中心、冷凍倉,以及迷你倉等現代工業項目,有助可持續發展。

另有測量師亦支持政府延長活化工廈措施,預期可鼓勵更多業主參與活化工廈計劃,並配合現有「標準金額」補地價計劃,加快工廈重建。

全幢舊式工廈可重建受覬覦

有代理行指出,截至今年9月底,已有57宗放寬發展密度的規劃申請獲批,涉及樓面面積約1270萬方呎,相信政府延長活化工廈措施的話,將延續目前工廈投資的熾熱氣氛和活躍交投,料投資者將在市場上物色合適可重建的全幢舊式工廈,但由於此類全幢物業將買少見少,投資者或會從併購重建方向入手。

香港測量師學會認為,政府除延長前述兩項措施外,亦應檢視政策,適量放寬和簡化審批要求,例如彈性處理興建停車場和社區設施的要求,建立公開、透明的標準及指引,增加有關計劃的吸引力和協助工廈重建。

新蒲崗匯達商業中心頂層 同步租售

東九龍近年火速變天,觀塘、九龍灣由工業轉型全新工商貿區,啟德發展區打造為新貴屋苑滙聚地,而位處兩區中間的新蒲崗亦因而備受關注,商貿氛圍與日俱增;新近有業主看準市況,將原先自用的匯達商中心頂層全層單位,調低叫價,以意向價約6,476.8萬元放售。

降價12% 冀吸引買家

代理指,位於新蒲崗雙喜街9號匯達商業中心28樓全層,面積約5,632平方呎,現以意向呎價約1.15萬元放售,叫價約6,476.8萬元。上址業主原以每平方呎約1.3萬元放盤,惟最近眼見工商舖交投氣氛暢旺,因而將意向價下調至約12%,冀吸引用家或投資者承接。該代理稱,28樓為匯達商業中心頂層單位,可眺望獅子山一帶的開揚景色,而單位備有分體式冷氣,使用上更具彈性。至於單位實用率亦不俗,少柱位、樓底高的設計,令單位的空間效能極盡發揮。

每呎叫租25

而位置上,匯達商業中心靠近港鐵鑽石山站,屯馬綫全面通車下,令區內的交通配套更為完善,此外,單位亦同時招租中,意向呎租約25元,涉及總月租叫價約14.08萬元。事實上,新蒲崗區內商廈為數不多,成交亦只集中於匯達商業中心及萬迪廣場身上。而據資料顯示,同區大有街3號萬迪廣場9樓F、G及H室,合共面積約4,534平方呎,於今年年初以約5,942萬元易手,平均呎價約1.3萬元,而匯達商業中心高層單位,面積約5,632平方呎,今年亦以約6,195萬元沽出。

代理續稱,匯達商業中心大多單位均由業主自用,而是次推售的頂層全層單位,更屬市場罕有放盤,再者,隨着啟德區發展,新蒲崗亦受惠,並逐步轉型成商貿區,而活化工廈政策同時吸引區內業主、發展商進行重建或改裝,不少用家及投資者對區內發展前景信心十足,搶先落戶。而現正放售的匯達商業中心頂層戶,一梯一伙設計,單位質素不俗,而位置又比鄰港鐵鑽石山站出口,各方面條件極具競爭力,最重要業主又願意降低叫價,令放售項目的價錢更為貼市,預料可獲實力買家追捧。

Hong Kong property deals set to plunge in October amid fears Beijing is tightening its grip on the housing market

Chinese officials overseeing the city’s affairs told local developers to use their influence to champion state interests, according to a recent Reuters report

The number of properties changing hands in October is likely to plunge by more than 20 per cent on the month, say analysts

The number of property deals taking place in Hong Kong is set to slide for a third month in October as buyers await clarity on housing policy amid rumours that Beijing is muscling in to control the local market.

The overall number of transactions, including residential, commercial and industrial properties, as well as parking spaces, marked an eight-month low of 7,400 in September, down 6 per cent from the previous month, according to Land Registry data released on Tuesday.

The number of properties changing hands in October is likely to plunge by more than 20 per cent on the month, according to property agent.

“Buyers have generally waited for the final policy address in the term of Chief Executive [Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor on October 6], and will only make arrangements after the property market policies and measures become clear,” the agent said.

“The failure of property prices to rise sharply after breaking the record has made buyers become more cautious. In addition, the stock market has fallen a lot in the past quarter. It has been reported that the central government wanted to change the rules in the local property market.”

Hong Kong’s housing problem – tight supply underpinning sky-high prices – has raised red flags among Chinese officials overseeing the city’s affairs, with some of them telling local developers to use their resources and influence to champion state interests, according to a recent Reuters report.

For now, reports of arm-twisting by Beijing officials have been denied, according to the Real Estate Developers Association (Reda).

The biggest drop in transactions has been for non-residential properties, which sank 36.7 per cent to 1,048 in September.

A property agency expected that the overall number of transactions to test a 14-month low of 5,800 transactions in October. It would be the first time the number of deals has fallen below 6,000 since August 2020.

Another agency also believes the overall number of transactions could go as low as 6,000.

Lived-in home prices in Hong Kong retreated for the first time this year in August from an all-time high, after a slump in the equity market weakened buying sentiment.

But the agency remained optimistic about homebuying demand as the percentage of buyers originally from mainland China purchasing new homes in the first eight months of this year marked a four-year high of 13.2 per cent.

An immigration consultancy also noted strong demand among mainland Chinese buyers in a survey in late September.

Separately, another property agency priced the first batch of 268 flats at The Arles in Fo Tan on Tuesday. Prices start at HK$6.17 million (US$792,669) for a flat measuring 331 square feet. The average price per sq ft of the batch at HK$18,888 is about 5.6 per cent lower than the average for the first batch of The Pavilia Farm phase three in nearby Tai Wai launched in May at HK$19,999.

中環中心連錄承租 每呎78元屬市價水平


隨疫情持續平穩,帶動甲廈租賃交投轉活,「小巴大王」馬亞木持有的中環中心錄連環承租,其中高層單位以每呎約78元租出,屬市價水平。

代理指出,上述為「小巴大王」馬亞木持有的中環中心高層07至11室,面積約10675方呎,以約83.265萬租出,平均呎租約78元,上址舊租每呎90元,故租金下跌約13%。

「小巴大王」馬亞木持有

另一個案為該甲廈中層08至12室,面積9897方呎,以59.38萬租出,平均呎租約60元。該代理指,上址亦由馬亞木持有,早前每呎租金為70元,故租金下跌約14%,上述兩宗租金均屬市價水平。

資料顯示,馬亞木於今年7月以6.93億沽出該甲廈26樓全層,以面積2.5萬方呎計,呎價約27720元,買家為紀惠集團。

較舊租跌13%至14%

有外資代理行指出,本港甲廈租金於今年第三季按季下跌約1.5%,較第二季的2.6%跌幅已見放緩,空置率則續升至9.3%,涉及樓面約580萬方呎,該行指出,中環跟其他地區的租金差距收窄,非核心地區的租金或會受壓,展望明年,料明年整體甲廈租金跌10%,中環區則下跌約5%。

該行代理指出,近期股市急跌,但首次公開招股申請仍然踴躍,成為了中環寫字樓市場背後兩股平衡力量。展望未來,各區之間的租金差距繼續收窄,經濟展望不明朗,加上供應量增加,或令非核心地區寫字樓的租金進一步受壓。

西洋菜街鋪每呎200元跌60% 租金重返16年前 美容店取代鐘表行

受疫情等因素打擊,核心區鋪位租金跌勢未止,消息指,旺角西洋菜南街地鋪於交吉逾一年後,獲美容中心以18萬承租,取代鐘表行進駐,平均呎租約200元,租金急挫約6成,並重返16年前水平;據業內人士指出,現今核心區遊客絕迹,單靠本地消費難以支撐大市,拖累租金持續下滑。

上述為西洋菜南街69號地下及閣樓,面積約900方呎,閣樓約700方呎,交吉一年,市場消息透露,剛以約18萬獲美容中心承租,呎租約200元,該鋪舊租客THE SWATCH GROUP (HONG KONG) LIMITED,2013年以月租68萬進駐,2016年時續約時月租45萬,租約至今年8月,惟去年7月提早遷出,最新租金急挫約60%,較高峰期更回落約74%。

交吉一年始獲承租

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2007年以約1.12億購入,以公司名義TOP RAINBOW LIMITED (高虹集團有限公司) 持有,註冊董事為莫姓人士,以最新租金計,回報僅1.9厘。

盛滙基金創辦人李根興評論指,西洋菜南街屬鋪市「重災區」,上址最新租金重返2005年、即約16年前水平,政治運動及疫情等負面因素重創鋪市,加上中港兩地未通關,遊客絕迹,傳統核心區單靠本地消費難以支撐大市,拖累租金急速下滑。

代理指出,旺角西洋菜南街現今吉鋪數量逾20間,部分丟空逾一年,現時以短租主導,租金普遍跌約75%,短租客包括手機用品、電子數碼產品口罩店及家庭用品等。

百年老店「老鳳祥」今年六月遷出的旺角亞皆老街與西洋菜南街交界「鋪王」,交吉兩個月後,獲樓上燕窩莊以短租形式承租,月租約30萬,較舊租跌約80%。

駱克道地鋪7150萬售

據土地註冊處資料顯示,灣仔駱克道468號鑽石大樓地鋪連閣樓,上月初以7150萬售出,買家CLAY THE RACCOON HOLDINGS COMPANY LIMITED,註冊董事為陳姓人士,原業主於1978年以80萬購入,持貨43年帳面獲利7070萬,物業期間升值約88.3倍。上址地鋪連閣樓總樓面約2000方呎,呎價約35750元。

50大甲廈首3季 131買賣按年升1.6倍

今年第三季商廈勝去年,有代理行統計指,首三季錄131宗商廈買賣,按年升1.6倍。

該行數據顯示,今年首三季50大甲廈合共錄得131宗買賣,較去年同期的51宗大幅增加1.6倍,成交面積合共56.25萬平方呎,按年更大升2.1倍,反映今年的成交不乏大單位、大銀碼物業。

今年首三季的成交量集中於九龍,期內共錄得78宗,佔整體約6成,其次為港島的27宗及新界的26宗。若以大廈劃分,沙田石門京瑞廣場共錄14宗,屬表現最好的大廈,其次為葵涌新都會廣場及中環的中環中心,期內均各錄得12宗買賣成交。

九龍區的成交較為分散,最多為尖東新文華中心的11宗,及觀塘寧晉中心的7宗。

中環環球大廈3年未發市

統計指,多個傳統核心區甲廈交投慢熱,除了中環中心錄得較多買賣之外,其餘多座傳統指標甲廈成交量低迷,例如一向屬交投集中地的上環信德中心及金鐘力寶中心,今年以來分別只錄得1宗及3宗買賣,信德中心的成交量較去年同期還要少。此外,中環環球大廈及灣仔會展廣場辦公大樓等今年暫仍未錄得買賣,而環球大廈更已經連續39個月未錄得成交,相當於冰封超過3年。

代理表示,本地疫情緩和,加上受惠去年低基數效應,令到今年首三季的指標甲廈交投大幅反彈。不過,近期的指標甲廈買賣成交有放緩的迹象,主要因為早前股市表現波動,加上近期多個甲廈新項目推出拆售,包括觀塘觀塘道368號、長沙灣荔枝角道888號,以及快將推出的黃竹坑宏基匯等,吸去部分市場購買力,令到二手指標甲廈交投略為放緩,但整體而言商廈市場氣氛仍然平穩。

市況持續向好 投資者趁機沽貨

疫情緩和下,投資市場向好,不少財團四出尋找物業投資,而持重貨的投資者趁機沽貨套現,稍作減磅。

投資市場平穩向好,舖位、全幢物業等承接力不俗,個別業主趁機加快沽貨。近月積極出貨的鄧成波家族,第二季連環沽貨涉逾百億元,近日再度推出數10億元物業放售,個別獲得承接,包括深水埗欽州街51至53號全幢,以約1.23億元成交。該項目為兩幢相連的樓宇,樓高4層,早於1932年落成,列入一級歷史建築的戰前舊樓。舖王波叔早年收購,其中以3,830萬元購入深水埗欽州街51號,其後再購入53號全幢。早年項目獲批出圖則,可興建1座25層高商住樓宇,總樓面面積約2.16萬平方呎。

鄧成波家族蝕讓沽禮頓道舖

另外,銅鑼灣禮頓道33至35號地下,面積約2,800平方呎,以約1.8億元成交,呎價約6.4萬元。據了解,舖位由中銀 (02388) 租用,較早前以每月56萬元續租。物業由舖王鄧成波家族持有,波叔於2017年斥2.15億元購入,家族成員較早前以約2.7億元放售,現減價逾3成沽貨。持貨4年轉手,蝕約3,500萬元離場。

商廈方面,灣仔莊士企業大廈多層樓面易手,當中涉及項目5至23樓其中18層樓面,其中16至24樓9層,屬酒店用途,提供500間房。項目總樓面約44,829平方呎,以4.15億元成交,呎價約9,257元,由投資者購入。波叔早於2014年,以約3.6億元,向投資者紀寶購入灣仔莊士企業大廈15層樓面,其後再分階段購入3層,合共持有18層樓面,總涉資約4.32億元。如今家族以4.15億元沽出該批樓面,仍蝕約1,700萬元離場。

至於工廈,該家族亦沽出觀塘開源道62號駱駝漆大廈第1座1樓全層,面積約14,795平方呎,涉約1億元,呎價約6,759元。鄧成波家族於2010年以約4,700萬元購入,持貨11年,帳面獲利約5,300萬元。

佳寶8500 售土瓜灣自用舖

另一沽貨較積極財團為佳寶,該集團頻頻沽舖,如最近以8,500萬售出土瓜灣靠背壟道自用舖位,持貨6年料實蝕約500萬元離場。物業面積約3,000平方呎,以租金20萬元計,料買家享回報約2.8厘。

此外,他早前亦沽出西灣河及屯門舖位,其中西灣河街129至133號利基大廈地下2號舖連閣樓,以1.22億元成交,舖位面積約8,400平方呎,現由百佳超市租用。佳寶於2012年以8,960萬元買入,持貨9年轉手,帳面獲利約3,240萬元。另外,集團以約8,200萬元,沽屯門鄉事會路112至140號雅都花園地下8號舖,面積約3,435平方呎。

分析指,由於整體投資市況向好,特別舖位租售價從低位反彈,吸引投資者重新留意入市。個別持重貨的投資者,因資金安排等原因,有需要沽貨套現,而趁現時市況理想,加快推售物業,獲一定承接力,預計投資者把握機會,續推售物業。

Presale applications rise to three-year high

Developers have applied for the presale consent for three projects that offer 2,966 units altogether, the most in three years, while more buyers rushed to buy homes in Yuen Long and Hung Shui Kiu.

Government data also showed that only 508 private homes were completed in August, down 53.7 percent month-on-month to a seven-month low.

Meanwhile, Noelle Kwok Hew-yin, the daughter of Thomas Kwok Ping-kwong, the former joint chairman of Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016), bought a 4,597-square-foot luxury home at 33 Island Road in Repulse Bay for HK$505 million.

The apartment includes a 2,600 -sq-ft garden and the per-square-foot price was HK$109,854, according the Land Registry.

Kwok's daughter paid a stamp duty of HK$21.5 million, or 4.25 percent of the property price, meaning the flat was her starter home. The seller was a company registered outside of Hong Kong named Linkful Shares, which enjoyed a paper gain of HK$205 million, or 68 percent after holding for 10 years.

Local media reported that the former owner was actually billionaire King Pak-fu, who ranked 165th on the Forbes Chinese Rich List in 2015 with a net worth of US$1.9 billion (HK$14.8 billion) at that time.

He was engaged in the IT business in the 1990s and then set foot in the mainland real estate market. In 2010, King moved to Hong Kong and successively took over three Hong Kong shell stock listed companies.

However, things changed in 2018 with many giant financial players like China Minsheng Investment Group and China Huarong Asset Management (2799) going into a series of debt crises, dragging King and his companies down along with them.

Hong Kong’s ‘big four’ developers stand to win big from government’s proposed Northern Metropolis

The metropolis covering 300 sq km of area includes 600 hectares of farmland, wetland and brownfield sites partly held by big developers

Sun Hung Kai Properties, CK Asset, Henderson Land and New World own a total of 106.3 million sq ft of farmland in designated hub: CGS-CIMB

Hong Kong developers sitting on massive holdings of farmland are expected to be the biggest winners of the government’s latest proposal to develop a new hub called Northern Metropolis.

While the plan covers an area of 300 sq km, the government will develop 600 hectares (1,480 acres) of land including farmland, wetland and brownfield sites, some of which is held by developers and private owners.

Sun Hung Kai Properties, CK Asset, Henderson Land and New World Development, the city’s top four by market value, together own a total of 106.3 million sq ft of farmland in the designated area, according to CGS-CIMB Securities.

“The four largest developers will stand to benefit the most among the local players from the new policies, due to their huge farmland reserves and extensive experience in developing farmland-converted mixed-use developments,” a brokerage report said.

While some of the farmland might be acquired under local laws by the government for public housing and infrastructure, developers will still have profit margins of about 20 to 30 per cent because of the extremely low cost of land, the broker said.

Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor on Wednesday said an innovation and technology corridor will serve as the engine of the Northern Metropolis. It will also include a new cross-border railway linking the city to the Qianhai economic zone in Shenzhen, and an extension of a local rail link that will stimulate development across Hong Kong’s rural hinterland.

Once the entire Northern Metropolis is fully developed, as many as 926,000 units, including the existing 390,000 flats in Yuen Long and North districts, will be available to accommodate 2.5 million people in 20 years, she said.

The metropolis will include existing new towns in Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long, Fanling and Sheung Shui and their neighbouring rural areas, as well as six new development areas under planning or construction. They are Kwu Tung North/Fanling North, Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen, Yuen Long South, San Tin/Lok Mak Chau, Man Kam To and The New Territories North New Town.

Under this plan, CK Asset and Henderson Land could have their wetland sites around Mai Po acquired by the government, an analysis report said.

Henderson Land had the largest holding of farmland in Hong Kong at 44.6 million sq ft as of June, according to its interim report. It said about 100,000 sq ft in Kam Tin was resumed by the government in the first half for public use for which it received a payment of HK$80 million. Another 1.26 million sq ft in Fanling New Development Area and Kwu Tung New Development Area was taken by the government in 2019, for which it was paid HK$1.75 billion

Still, Henderson Land has more than 4 million sq ft of gross floor area in the Fanling and Kwu Tung new development areas, according to its interim report.

SHKP holds 31 million sq ft of farmland, making it the second largest holder, while New World Development and CK Asset own 17.9 million sq ft and 12.8 million sq ft, respectively.

The shares of the city’s property developers continued to rise for a second day following the announcement of the Northern Metropolis plan.

Henderson Land jumped 7 per cent, SHKP advanced 2.4 per cent, New World Development rose 3 per cent and CK Asset added 1.2 per cent on Thursday.

NIKE租觀塘ITT 每呎32元涉逾5萬呎


東九龍甲廈租務相對較旺,消息指,運動服裝品牌NIKE租用觀塘ITT (國際貿易中心) 逾5萬平方呎樓面,呎租高見32元。該品牌原租用九龍灣商廈,是次搬遷屬提升級數,同時亦縮減樓面。

搬遷提升級數 縮減樓面

市場消息指,觀塘國際貿易中心錄得租務,涉及12樓全層,以及15樓部分樓面,合共約5.2萬平方呎,成交呎租約32元。近一年東九龍甲廈租金顯著下跌,普遍甲廈呎租徘徊20餘元,而是次錄得呎租逾30元,屬頗高水平。該廈為區內最具質素新商廈之一,故租金水平較高。

據了解,新租客為NIKE,該品牌於十年前租用九龍灣國際交易中心29、30及31樓,屬項目最頂3層,合共約7.8萬平方呎,租約即將到期。是次NIKE轉租ITT,既可提升寫字樓級數,同時亦縮減約3成樓面。事實上,不少運動服裝品牌把總部設於東九龍,如去年Adidas租觀塘海濱滙合共約7萬平方呎樓面,呎租約30元。

華潤擴充 租創紀之城2萬呎

同區其他租務方面,消息指,觀塘創紀之城一期全層,面積約2.1萬平方呎,呎租約25元。據悉,新租客華潤,集團本身已租用該廈單位,是次屬擴充。據了解,該層樓面原由渣打銀行使用,年初決定放棄部分樓層。

另消息稱,九龍灣企業廣場五期2座23樓全層,面積約1.7萬平方呎,獲一家會計師樓租用,呎租約23元。據悉,該機構原租用北角萬國寶通中心,搬遷可節省開支。另外,九龍灣恩浩國際中心高層樓D室,面積約約1,497平方呎,以約2.8萬元租出,呎租約19元。

甲廈新供應來臨 租金難反彈

外資代理行:業主願降價 「去中環化」將放緩

疫情衝擊商業活動,甲廈需求急降,導致空置樓面創新高。有外資代理行認為,現時空置樓面多,加上未來兩年新供應達650萬平方呎,消化需時,相信未來兩年甲廈租金低位徘徊,難以反彈。

環球疫情最影響商務活動往來,外資及中資機構來港租寫字樓需求大降,導致甲廈淡靜。據該代理數字,第三季的甲廈租賃量達130萬平方呎,與上一季度基本持平,導致年初至今的總租務低於340萬平方呎,第三季吸納量進一步收縮至負119,320平方呎。連續第8個季度出現負吸納量,打破了歷來最長的下行周期記錄。

持續負吸納,令甲廈空置率升至11%,而空置樓面增至900萬平方呎,為歷來最多。該行代理指,香港長期平均每年約350萬至400萬呎空置面積為合理,現900萬呎即高出逾500萬呎,以每年平均吸納量170萬呎,正常需2至3年時間消化。但要留意,疫情下在家工作、工作模式改變,均令需求減少。

未來兩年 共650萬呎出台

現有空置樓面創新高,代理指未來兩年踏入供應高峰期,令情況雪上加霜,「2022至23年合共有650萬呎新供應出台,數字甚大,連同900萬呎未消化,合共約1,500多萬呎。按過往每年平均吸納量約170萬呎,而當時沒有揮之不去的疫情,現在也說不定明年疫情會否完結,前景不明朗下,估計吸納較慢。」

事實上,近期市場租務稍增加,令租金下降繼續放緩,由2021年初至今已下降5.3%,而第三季整體租金則下降0.9%。他預計,短期內租金有下行壓力,其後市況有望少少改善,但不代表其後即回升,料未來1至2年租金低位橫行為主。他料未來12個月,租金仍跌約5%。

封關下企業難來港開業,代理指,近年內地機構活躍來港開業,但相信即使重新通關,中資機構難以撑起整個租務市場,「內地公司以租幾千呎樓面作起步,要數量很大才可吸納如此多空置樓面。」至於外資及跨國企業,他認為擴充上會審慎,「近期新近租務多,惟搬遷為主,擴充甚少,搬遷甚至縮減樓面。跨國企業未來6至12個月,預計仍較為觀望,未必作大型擴充。」

東九龍中長綫 仍有吸引力

核心區中環向來是企業必搶之地,近期中區租務也有上升,如中環國際金融中心一期5.3萬平方呎樓面,獲內地金融機構中金公司租用,為今年最大手超甲廈租務成交,中金公司樓面擴充至12萬呎,成物業最大租戶。該代理指,中環空置率稍為穩定,認為大型機構仍有興趣。至於近年不少機構遷出中環,代理料因中區租金下跌,「去中環化」將放緩,「中環業主願降價,吸引租客續租。畢竟搬遷費仍涉及一定成本,當業主減價留客,搬遷節省租金開支幅度減少,故傾向續租。」代理指,中長綫非核心區如東九龍,仍有一定吸引力,「除了租金較便宜外,東九龍新商廈林立,質素上始終較為理想。疫情下很多機構重視寫字樓質素,如空調、通風、洗手間衞生等。」

金鐘統一中心意向呎租38

疫情持續平穩,帶動甲廈租賃交投轉活,部分業主亦趁勢放租旗下物業,金鐘統一中心高層單位推出市場放租,意向呎租約38元。

代理表示,金鐘道95號統一中心高層A02室及A03室,單位面積分別約6952方呎及4382方呎,合共約11334方呎,業主意向租金分別約26萬及16萬,合共約43萬,呎租約38元。

享開揚維港景致

該代理指,物業以交吉形式放租,間隔方正實用,坐享開揚維港景致,屬該甲廈優質單位,統一中心盡享龐大地理優勢,物業毗鄰政府總部,以及雲集頂級購物及餐飲選擇的太古廣場,同時連接區內商廈遠東金融中心力寶中心海富中心等,享協同效益。

資料顯示,該甲廈近期矚目買賣為由宏安地產持有的高層全層以5.15億易手,呎價約2.5萬,料買家享租金回報約2.7厘。據了解,買家為許大絢及梁先杰。資料顯示,業主為宏安地產,於2016年以5.12億購入,持貨約5年帳面獲利約277.5萬。

據大型代理行資料顯示,該甲廈對上一宗成交於今年3月錄得,為高層B室,面積10244方呎,以約2.15億售,呎價約2.1萬;另一成交為30樓F室,面積20489方呎,於2016年11月以約5.1億售,呎價約2.5萬。

西洋菜街鋪每呎167元跌60% 交吉逾一年獲承租鐘表店進駐

疫情持續,隨着鋪租急跌,核心區吉鋪陸續被「填上」,旺角西洋菜南街繼早前一個地鋪獲美容店進駐,毗鄰地鋪亦成功租出,新租客為鐘表店,月租約15萬,平均呎租約200元,較舊租金急挫約60%,並重返16年前水平。

上述為西洋菜南街67號地下,面積約900方呎,交吉逾一年,剛由鐘表店承租,市場消息透露,最新月租15萬,平均呎租約167元,該鋪舊租客為連鎖時裝店Wanko,2019年時續約時月租38萬,租約至今年首季,惟於去年中提早遷出,最新租金急挫約60%,較高峰期更回落約74%。

每月租金15

最新進駐的叫「鎣時計」,售賣時尚鐘表,價格大眾化,與主攻遊客的奢侈品鐘表並不同。該核心區鋪早年很搶手,去年中至今罕有丟空,早於十年前租客為雞仔嘜,直至2015年月租55萬,由威高國際以每月57萬搶租,由旗下Colourmix進駐,大做遊客生意,亦是該鋪位史以來最高租金。隨後好景不常,隨着市況回落,於2019年續租時,月租減至38萬,威高國際引入旗下的Wanko時裝,該品牌主攻本地客生意,直至去年中撤出。

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2010年1月以約1.43億購入,以公司名義LEIGH HUNG SING LIMITED持有,以最新租金計算,回報不足2厘。

回報不足兩厘

上述為西洋菜南街69號地下及閣樓,面積約900方呎,閣樓約700方呎,交吉一年,市場消息透露,剛以約18萬獲美容中心承租,呎租約200元,該鋪舊租客THE SWATCH GROUP (HONG KONG) LIMITED,2013年以月租68萬進駐,2016年時續約時月租45萬,租約至今年8月,惟去年7月提早遷出,最新租金急挫約60%,較高峰期更回落約74%。

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2007年以約1.12億購入,以公司名義TOP RAINBOW LIMITED (高虹集團有限公司) 持有,註冊董事為莫姓人士,以最新租金計,回報僅1.9厘。

代理:工廈受惠「活化計畫」延期

自從工商鋪辣稅撤銷後,市場買賣增加,特首發表任內最後一份《施政報告》,將活化工廈2.0延長,進一步利好工廈,今年以來,市場共錄17幢工廈成交,包括屯門東亞紗廠工業大廈全幢,涉資高達22.4億,今年工廈成交數目,遠超於2020全年的約7宗,後市看高一綫。

有代理表示,活化工廈2.0計畫今年10月到期,《施政報告》落實延長兩項活化工廈政策至2024年10月,包括放寬工廈重建地積比率以及免收豁免整幢工廈改裝所產生的地契豁免書費用,令發展商及財團對大型工廈重建保持信心。事實上,今年首三季錄約17宗全幢工廈買賣,遠超2020全年的約7宗;投資者積極購入一籃子工廈,證明大型工廈項目投資價值受肯定。

今年暫錄17幢工廈成交

該代理續指,《施政報告》亦提出增強香港與內地的交通連繫,包括探討北環綫及東鐵綫延伸,預計有利物流業發展,工廈需求將持續穩健,其中預計新界西如上水、粉嶺、屯門及元朗的工廈、地皮以及倉地會備受大投資者追捧;繼而令新界可發展工業用地減少,投資者及財團有機會轉向葵荃區工廈尋寶。

另一代理表示,政府進一步擴大跨境人民幣資金雙向流通管道、考慮稅務寬減以吸引企業來港設辦公室等,對中資企業吸引力上漲,增加對核心區商廈需求,有助刺激價格。代理續指,研究降低強拍門檻有利工廈之外,港島區一帶乙丙級商廈亦會受惠,吸引發展商及財團收購。

乙丙商廈料成收購對象

代理表示,強拍門檻若降低,對鋪市有正面影響,加上以油麻地及旺角先行,隨着更多舊樓重建,鋪位減少,帶動價格上升。

Sheung Shui flats snapped up amid Metropolis heat

Tai Hung Fai Enterprise's Sheung Shui low-priced residential project Artique sold out in 90 minutes flat yesterday, amid speculation over the government's Northern Metropolis development plan.

The 30-home project is considered to have the smallest floor plan available in the Northern district, with prices as low as parking spaces in private housing estates.

It consists of 24 studios and six one-bedroom flats with areas from 138 square feet to 259 sq ft. The discounted selling price ranged from HK$2.43 million to HK$5.12 million, and the average discounted price was HK$18,454 per sq ft.

Artique is Tai Hung Fai's second residential development project after the 2014-completed Kadoorie Lookout in Ho Man Tin. The six-story development was built on the site after bidding HK$131 million in 2017, with an average price per square foot of about HK$14,000. It was 32 percent higher than the market valuation of HK$10,700 and set a new high in Northern district at that time.

However, the market valuation of all the 30 flats in Artique was about HK$100 million, which was half of the estimated total investment amounting to nearly 200 million, the developer said.

Tai Hung Fai Enterprise was founded by billionaire businessman Edwin Leong Siu-hung. It has an extensive portfolio of retail shops, hotels, service departments, office and industrial buildings. Leong is the son of Henry Guthrie Leong, a renowned Jardine Matheson comprador back in the 20th century.

In Tseung Kwan O's Lohas Park, LP10 sold 44 flats yesterday, accounting for 27.8 percent of the 158 units offered in the latest round of sales.

Co-developed by Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation (0066), the project has sold 722 units in the five rounds of sales so far, which account for more than 80 percent of the 893 flats provided in the development, and cashed in a total of HK$8.3 billion, said the developers.

In Fo Tan, the Arles, developed by mainland China's Centralcon Properties, released the second price list, which offered 134 units, including 33 one-bedroom units, 48 two-bedroom units and 53 three-bedroom units.

The discounted prices were from HK$6.39 million to HK$23.5 million.

Meanwhile, sluggish demand from buyers in the secondary market continued. One deal was recorded among a property agency’s top 10 housing estates over the weekend.

The figure fell 75 percent from the last weekend where Mei Foo Sun Chuen in Lai Chi Kok was the only housing estate with a successful transaction.

Property agency said that the adverse weather brought by typhoon Lionrock deterred buyers from viewing flats during the weekend, despite the clearer market sentiment after the Policy Address.

Hong Kong homebuyers snap up all flats in ‘Northern Metropolis’ district in first weekend sales after Carrie Lam’s policy address

Developer Tai Hung Fai Group Holdings sells all 30 flats at Artique development in Sheung Shui, a district that is part of Lam’s proposed Northern Metropolis

Weekend property sales, usually held on Saturdays, were postponed this weekend after the city’s first typhoon signal No. 8 of the year

Hong Kong’s first weekend property sale after Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor’s policy address was mixed, as homebuyers snapped up all the flats in Sheung Shui, which is part of a new proposed “Northern Metropolis”, but were less enthusiastic about flats in Lohas Park from an earlier project.

Developer Tai Hung Fai Group Holdings had on Sunday evening sold all 30 flats at its six-storey Artique development in Sheung Shui, a district that is part of Lam’s proposed Northern Metropolis. The project received about 850 registrations of intent, or around 28 bids for each available flat, according to agents.

“The new Artique project in Sheung Shui has received a boost from Chief Executive Carrie Lam’s proposal, which has generated some excitement among prospective homebuyers in the area,” property agent.

Weekend property sales, usually held on Saturdays, were postponed this weekend after the city’s first typhoon signal No. 8 of the year was hoisted. All typhoon signal warnings were cancelled on Sunday, as Tropical Storm Lionrock moved away from the city.

Hong Kong’s border area with mainland China will be built into the new Northern Metropolis of 2.5 million people in 20 years, according to a blueprint laid down by Lam in her policy address on Wednesday. It will include a “Silicon Valley” that will closely interact with neighbouring Shenzhen.

Upon the full development of the metropolis, up to 926,000 flats, including the existing 390,000 homes in Yuen Long and North districts, will be available to house a population of about 2.5 million, Lam said.

The metropolis will include Tin Shui Wai, Yuen Long, Fanling and Sheung Shui, along with six new development areas under planning or construction.

It will also involve a new cross-border railway linking the city to the Qianhai economic zone in Shenzhen, and an extension of a local northern rail link that is expected to stimulate development across Hong Kong’s hinterland.

“The flats in Sheung Shui are very attractive to prospective homebuyers, as it is very difficult to find new flats for around HK$2 million (US$256,924),” agent said.

The flats range from 138 sq ft to 259 sq ft in size and cost between HK$2.42 million and HK$5.12 million after discounts of up to 12 per cent. Their average price is HK$18,454 per square foot, about 20 to 38 per cent higher than the secondary transaction prices of HK$13,320 to HK$15,340 per square foot in the area.

The strong sales in Sheung Shui came after the city’s development minister said that property developers could be required to build flats of at least 200 sq ft. Secretary for Development Michael Wong Wai-lun made the suggestion on Friday as he acknowledged cramped living spaces were a “pain point for society”. While he did not specify what the minimum size would be, he noted recent suggestions of setting the starting point at 200 sq ft or 210 sq ft for the private sector.

Wong also said that new public housing flats could be 10 or 20 per cent bigger than their current size – but only more than a decade later when land supply was more abundant.

Meanwhile, Nan Fung Group and MTR Corporation had sold 44 of the 183 flats on offer at the LP10 project at Lohas Park in Tseung Kwan O as of 8pm on Sunday, according to agents. These flats included leftover units from previous sales, agents said.

These flats ranged from two-bedroom units to four-bedroom flats, with sizes ranging from 447 sq ft to 1,526 sq ft and prices starting from HK$8.23 million.

The sales of the LP10 project on Sunday were in line with expectations, as there have already been multiple rounds of property launches at Lohas Park, agent added.

LP10, the 10th phase of a massive development at Lohas Park, comprises 893 flats in total, with the first batch launched in January this year.

The fresh batch of 101 flats at LP10 was priced at an average of HK$18,751 per square foot after a discount of as much as 20 per cent. The latest price was 7.5 per cent higher than the previous launch price of HK$17,436 per square foot last month.

聯想11萬租栢麗大道複式舖 首設街舖專門店 較高峰租平71%

尖沙咀昔日一線購物地段栢麗購物大道空置率高企,導致租金大跌,早前街內「頭段」位置甚佳的兩個打通相連舖位以35年前月租25萬元租出後,為同街舖位租金確立新指標,並陸續錄得長租約租賃成交。同位於「頭段」的一個複式舖位,最新以每月11萬元獲中國科企巨頭聯想 (Lenovo) 承租,開設首間街舖官方專門店,租金較高峰期大瀉逾71%。

市場消息指出,尖沙咀彌敦道111至181號栢麗購物大道地下G21號舖及1樓11A號舖,地下建築面積約766方呎,1樓建築面積約766方呎,合共建築面積約1532方呎,已丟空約兩年,終以每月11萬元租出,呎租約71.8元,租期為兩年。

處同街「頭段」 毗鄰港鐵站

是次新租客為聯想,用作開設官方專門店。資料顯示,現時聯想在港只設有一間官方專門店,位於銅鑼灣渣甸街的樓上舖,今次屬首度進駐街舖開店。

是次聯想租用的舖位處於栢麗購物大道的「頭段」位置,較接近尖沙咀港鐵站,鄰近舖位多由連鎖店或珠寶金行承租,人流屬整條栢麗購物大道較旺的一段。

該舖1998年起由連鎖鞋店Mirabell承租多年,期間曾有數年由其他商戶租用,但亦間斷地在此舖經營約15年,最後一份租約月租為38萬元,呎租達248元。惟該品牌在2019年租約期滿後不再續租,舖位交吉兩年才再度租出,惟新約月租急跌27萬元或71.1%。

翻查資料,該舖在1986年物業落成時,由渣打銀行以每月9.5萬元承租,呎租約62元,即現租金較35年前僅略高1.5萬元或15.8%。

至於相隔上址一個舖位的G23號舖及1樓12A號舖,地下建築面積約651方呎,1樓建築面積約671方呎,合共建築面積約1322方呎,最近亦成功租出,由銷售翡翠珠寶的「潮州佬」以每月9.5萬元承租3年,呎租約71.9元。

據了解,此舖原由時裝店租用,月租最高曾達33萬元,每呎約250元,如今租金較高位下挫23.5萬元或71.2%。代理指出,舖位今年初曾以每月6萬元短租形式租出,現時長租租金回升58.3%。

附近舖主接受議價 租賃轉活

栢麗購物大道租賃突趨活躍,除因為消費市道回穩外,與業主接受大幅議租亦有直接關係。

8月栢麗購物大道位置更佳的地下G9、G10號舖連1樓5號舖,地下建築面積共1411方呎,1樓建築面積1357方呎,合共建築面積2768方呎,由連鎖珠寶金行謝瑞麟 (00417) 以每月25萬元租用3年,呎租約90元,租金與1986年的水平一樣,令街內不少業主接受以相若呎租水平與長租客洽租,促使交投加快。

Minister floats idea of setting minimum size for nano flats in space-starved Hong Kong

Acknowledging cramped living spaces are ‘pain point for society’, development chief says government could limit how small new flats can be

While Michael Wong does not give exact figure, he notes suggestions of setting starting point at 200 sq ft

Hong Kong could require property companies to build flats measuring at least 200 sq ft, the development minister has said, but even that size is much smaller than the bare minimum recommended by a government adviser and a ­research group.

Secretary for Development Michael Wong Wai-lun made the suggestion on Friday as he acknowledged cramped living spaces were a “pain point for society”. While he did not specify what the minimum would be, he noted recent suggestions of setting the starting point at 200 sq ft or 210 sq ft for the private sector.

“There are still many factors to think about, but we will consider doing it in future,” he said at a press conference.

Wong also said that new public housing flats could be 10 or 20 per cent bigger than their current size – but only more than a decade later when land supply was more abundant.

Introducing a minimum in private construction and increasing the size of public flats demonstrated the government’s commitment to fulfilling Hongkonger’s hopes of more living space “was not empty words”, Wong said, adding: “We can do it, but it will take time.”

With just 1,114 sq km (275,280 acres) for 7.5 million people, Hong Kong has long struggled to find land for housing.

The median floor area per capita is 161 sq ft, based on the 2016 census, and as home prices continue to outpace what most people can afford, developers have turned to building smaller flats.

A report by Liber Research Community, a civic group that focuses on housing and land issues, found that private developers built 10,900 nano flats – which the group defines as ones not bigger than 260 sq ft – over the past decade. They made up 10 per cent of the new homes last year.

But the flats often lack an enclosed kitchen or bedroom, and in many instances, do not have any windows in the bathroom.

Liber and other groups, including the Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong (DAB), have called on officials to impose a minimum size for new homes. Liber has suggested 260 sq ft would be a reasonable starting point, while the DAB has proposed 200 sq ft.

Property agent said that stipulating a minimum size for private flats was “a good move” to help improve the living standard of residents.

But the agent also warned it could be technically challenging for homes to meet the requirement at small sites, particularly ones in cramped urban areas.

“There could be site-specific constraints to come up with a design to maximise the gross floor area while having all units sized over 200 sq ft,” the agent said.

Lawrence Poon Wing-cheung, a housing policy expert at City University and member of the Town Planning Board, said 200 sq ft was too small but added the government had to set a standard that struck a balance between affordability and living space.

“We must take the middle ground. Some people may be priced out if the minimum size is set too high, but at the same time, flats are built to last for a long time so they cannot be too small either,” he said.

“Officials can use 210 sq ft as a starting point and then review the policy in the next five years to see how the market reacts. Ideally, private flats should be at least 230 or 250 sq ft, but we must ensure that people can still afford to live in these homes.”

Secretary Wong also said public-sector homes could be built 10 to 20 per cent larger than the current standard in the first phase of the Lantau Tomorrow Vision – a plan to create massive artificial islands in waters east of Lantau Island.

The first homes are slated to be ready in 2034. Larger public housing flats are also planned for the Northern Metropolis leader Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor proposed in her policy address on Wednesday.

Wong noted that the average home for a four-member family was less than 400 sq ft, and under the most “optimistic” scenario of a 20 per cent increase in size, the flat would be about 480 sq ft.

Lam said in her policy blueprint that Hong Kong faced a shortfall of 3,000 hectares of land for housing, and economic and recreational projects between now and 2048.

According to Wong, that forecast, which is 1.5 times more than the 1,200 deficit projected in 2016, had taken into consideration people’s aspirations for more spacious homes.

The minister also acknowledged the population had shrunk slightly due to emigration, but noted that latest census estimates showed the population would still grow in the future.

企業廣場呎租23元低市價一成

疫情走勢平穩,為工商鋪市場釋出正面訊息,惟商廈租金仍彈升乏力。消息指,九龍灣企業廣場高層單位,於交吉約半年後,以每方呎23元租出,較舊租金跌約15%,低市價約一成。

較舊租金跌15%

市場消息指出,九龍灣企業廣場五期2座高層單位,面積約17400方呎,以每方呎約23元租出,月租約40萬;據地產代理指出,上址舊租金約每方呎27元,惟租戶於今年3月已遷出,故單位交吉近半年後,租金下跌約15%,較市價低約一成。

據代理資料顯示,該廈近期成交為低層02至04室,面積約5975方呎,於去年11月以173275元租出,呎租約29元。

至於買賣方面,資料顯示,正八集團主席廖偉麟以1.43億購入項目3期高層全層,每方呎造價僅8900元,低市價逾20%,創該廈疫市以來呎價新低。

交吉半年後獲承租

另一方面,據市場消息指出,觀塘國際貿易中心12樓全層及15樓部分樓面,合共面積約5.2萬方呎,獲運動服裝品牌NIKE以每方呎約32元承租,屬區內高市價水平。

據悉,該品牌早前租用九龍灣國際交易中心29、30及31樓,屬項目最頂3層,合共約7.8萬方呎,因租約到期故搬遷,惟承租樓面明顯縮減。

「叫價克制」覓買家 大碼寫字樓買賣漸活

九月份非住宅及地盤之逾億銀碼成交宗數約有23宗,比八月份同類成交多了5宗,其中工商物業佔4宗、商業物業佔9宗、鋪位佔6宗、全幢或地盤佔4宗。大碼寫字樓買賣佔當中成交宗數約四成,是今年之中表現較為突出的月份,其中成交包括有:新世界發展沽出荔枝角道888號29至31樓 (連命名權) 予一家中資銀行,成交價約12億 (呎價約1.75萬),買家以南洋商業銀行呼聲最高。

億京旗下觀塘道368號商廈樓花亦受投資者和用家追捧,開售後瞬間錄得大手成交,涉及33、35及36樓連平台,3層合共以約4.5億成交或預留,同廈37樓連平台,以約1.56億沽出,據聞買家是上市公司中國波頓集團;旺角好望角大廈8至9樓由教協售予上市公司百本醫護控股,成交價約1.75億(呎價約8020元)。

觀塘道商廈樓花獲預留

還有,九龍灣企業廣場三期28樓由正八集團廖偉麟以約1.43億購入 (呎價約8,900元);鄧氏家族持有之灣仔莊士企業大廈5樓及7樓至24樓,以約4.145億(呎價約9932元)沽出予活星地產集團;灣仔新銀集團中心29樓以約1.4億售出予市場資深投資者;尖沙咀鐵路大廈20樓以約1.5億沽出;上環永樂街57至59號全幢寫字樓及商鋪以約2.8億沽。

商廈數據偏向走弱

雖然近期有關商廈的各類公布數據,均偏向走弱居多,包括空置率上升、整體買賣宗數按季回落、租金持續受壓等等,惟一些質素不俗及罕有、獨特之商廈物業,仍然受到投資者及用家積極洽購。雖然部分成交的呎價比市價或市場預期略低,但只要業主在叫價方面克制,而且保留議價空間及彈性交易條件,在市場成功覓到買家絕不困難,反映市場仍有不少投資者看好商廈中長綫前景。

有不少投資者認為現時投資工商鋪比投資住宅需考慮的因素較少,其中不少投資者作出決定前都會衡量過供求因素。日後通關後對各類物業需求預期所帶來之刺激作用,以至價格帶動之助力,同樣是投資者考慮因素之一。

拍板前衡量供求因素

有見工商鋪市場信心升溫,各大發展商亦積極部署非住宅一手項目之軟銷,其中包括:宏基資本旗下黃竹坑道23號宏基匯甲廈樓花、永義地產旗下荔枝角瓊林街121號工業項目樓花、麒豐資本旗下新蒲崗七寶街1號工廈樓花項目、第一集團旗下位於荔枝角及荃灣多個工商項目等。

上星期三公布之施政報告亦有對工廈物業方面有所着墨:現有的兩項活化工廈措施,包括放寬舊工廈重建地積比率及免收整幢改裝的地契豁免書費用,將會一併延長至2024年10月,市場人士預期兩項活化工廈措施將延長多三年,均有利工廈物業發展前景,為該類物業之投資價值繼續增添良性循環。

海防道鋪每呎222元低約兩成租出

受疫情等因素打擊,核心區鋪位租金持續受壓,消息指,尖沙嘴海防道地鋪以約20萬租出,呎租約222元,租金大幅回落逾六成。

市場消息指出,尖沙嘴海防道53至55號海防大廈地下雙號鋪,鋪位面積約450方呎,另設閣樓450方呎,總樓面900方呎,以約20萬租出,平均呎租約222元。

資料顯示,上址位處尖沙嘴海防道及樂道交界,昔日人流甚旺,該鋪於去年10月由口罩承租,月租約25萬,承租期為1年,上址再上一手租戶為表行,當時月租60萬,租約至今年7月,惟去年6月已提早離場。

每月租金20

事實上,受疫情等因素衝擊,令尖沙嘴區鋪市盛極而衰,該街道早前亦頻錄減租個案,資料顯示,海防大廈地下5號鋪,地鋪及入則閣建築面積各950方呎,總建築面積達1900方呎,於今年初以28萬租出,平均呎租約147元,該鋪位舊租客為英國百年鞋履品牌Clarks,於2019年7月以88萬承租,最新較舊租大跌60萬,幅度約68%。

業內人士指,鋪市自2014年開始回落,近年再受反修例事件,疫情重擊,尤其旅遊區成為「重災區」之一,海防道租金亦由高峰期逾1500元,回落至目前100至200元水平。

亞皆老街鋪每呎26元減34% 租金重返15年前水平 旺角核心地段交吉一年始租出

受疫情等因素衝擊,核心區租金持續下滑,消息指,亞皆老街巨鋪交吉約一年後,終以約15萬租出,每呎約26.9元,租金急挫約34%,並重返約15年前水平;據業內人士指出,隨疫情受控,市場氣氛已見改善,料鋪位租金跌將逐步收窄。

市場消息指出,旺角亞皆老街24至26號東方大廈地下入口、一樓及二樓,總樓面5570方呎,以新約15萬租出,平均呎租約26.9元,該巨鋪早前由連鎖食肆以約23萬承租,惟於去年已遷出,交吉約一年後,租金急挫約34%,租金重返2006年、即約15年前水平。

每月租金15

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址連同一籃子物業,業主於1992年以8350萬購入,以公司名義WELFORD PROPERTIES LIMITED持有,註冊董事為梁愛英、譚志豪和譚志峰,為蘋果牌牛仔服裝生產及零售商德士活譚氏家族成員。

資料顯示,上址地鋪由蘋果牌牛仔自用多年,惟於去年底獲服裝品牌Baleno以每月約15萬短租半年,以建築面積1800方呎計,呎租約83.3元。由於經營期間生意理想,早前由短租轉為長租,以每月60萬元簽約3年,呎租約333元。上址位處惠豐中心旁及鄰近港鐵旺角站出入口,昔日人流甚旺。

德士活譚氏家族持有

盛滙基金創辦人李根興評論指,該地段屬鋪市「重災區」,上址最新租金重返2006年、即約15年前水平,政治運動及疫情等負面因素重創鋪市,加上中港兩地未通關,遊客絕迹,傳統核心區單靠本地消費難以支撐大市,拖累租金急速下滑。

事實上,區內早前頻錄減租個案,資料顯示,亞皆老街65號旺角新之城地下G1至G9號鋪,位處西洋菜南街交界,建築面積約6000多方呎,實用約3505方呎,當年部分鋪位是旺角新之城商場入口,業主2014年將其打通成一個大單邊巨鋪租予周生生,月租達210萬,平均呎租約350元。

區內頻錄減租個案

該鋪位租約於今年中到期,業主開價100萬,周生生未有續租,隨着租期屆滿,業主以短租形式讓周生生繼續經營,市傳月租低於50萬。近期隨着疫情放緩,一家茶餐廳出價進取,以每月約60萬承租,最新月租較2014年高位大減150萬,跌幅達71.4%。據知情人士透露,新租客以龍城冰室呼聲高,由於鋪位已落實新租客,周生生將於年底前撤出。

此外,百年老店「老鳳祥」於今年6月遷出的旺角亞皆老街與西洋菜南街交界「鋪王」,於交吉兩個月後,獲樓上燕窩莊以短租形式承租,月租約30萬,較舊租跌約80%。

培新斥逾12億 購大坑道雅居

呎價高見6.9萬 擬重建長綫收租

港島區豪宅地皮難求,財團高價購入。較早前,大坑道雅居以12.4億元成交,呎價高達6.9萬元,新買家為培新集團,將購入重建,作長綫收租。

據土地註冊處資料顯示,大坑道341至343號雅居以近12.4億元成交。該項目地盤面積約1.1萬平方呎,總樓面合共約1.8萬平方呎,呎價高見近6.9萬元。新買家透過TH PROPERTIES LIMITED購入。

指港島逾萬呎地盤 屬罕有

據了解,新買家為培新集團。培新集團總監吳美綺接受查詢時,證實集團購入該項目。她表示港島區逾萬平方呎地盤罕有,大坑道亦適合作低密度豪宅,故集團斥資購入。她表示,待項目租約完結後,便進行重建,日後長綫收租。培新集團在港持有大批物業,主要涉及商舖、酒店及商廈等作收租,過往亦與發展商合作住宅項目,包括馬鞍山迎海。

原意向價逾8億 8財團入標

項目由一老牌家族持有,有見住宅市況向好,早前交由測量師行進行標售,意向價約8億至9億元,獲約7至8組財團入標,結果項目以約12.4億元成交,超出意向價逾3成。是次易手的雅居,地段有不少知名人士擇居於此,如比鄰物業的大坑道345號嘉園,「四大天王」之一的郭富城便居於該廈頂層單位。同地段新項目方面,附近有麗新旗下339 Tai Hang Road。

工商舖9月497買賣 按月跌9%

受環球經濟影響,整體工商舖市場觀望氣氛濃厚,反觀不少財團趁機加快吸納大額物業。代理資料顯示,9月份市場共錄得約497宗工商舖買賣成交,涉及總成交金額約119.54億元;宗數按月輕微下跌約9%,而受大額成交帶動,金額則比8月份多出約26%。

投資者吸優質盤 大額交易料增

代理分析,環球經濟、股市前景未明朗,市場資金積極尋出路,工商舖物業受惠多個利好消息,成為穩中求勝之選。投資者入市信心增加,加上物業價格調整空間逐步收窄,相信會吸引買家加快入市步伐,同時實力投資者及用家亦會加緊看準機遇吸納潛力物業,料大額交易將會持續出現。

根據代理統計,9月份市場共錄得約497宗工商舖買賣個案,比8月份略微減少約9%,不過按年表現持續造好,對比2020年9月增加約31%。成交宗數按月遞減,但受大額成交帶動下,按月總成交金額則見增長,9月錄得約119.54億元,按月上升26%,對比去年同期更大幅多出約1.37倍。工商舖買賣成交量呈量跌價升走勢,相信由於投資者及財團趁市況有所變化而加快洽購步伐,因而令大額成交增加。

代理認為,市場資金充裕,在全球量化寬鬆的政策下,現金將愈發貶值,但不少投資產品前景未明朗,令部分投資者轉投物色其他投資產品。而工商舖物業自去年底起已陸續受惠多個利好消息,例如提高按揭成數上限以及撤銷雙倍印花稅等,加上物業價格調整,入市成本驟降,成功吸引投資者目光。預計工商舖市場買賣氣氛會持續穩定暢旺,而價格下調幅度亦會慢慢收窄,加速買家承接步伐。同時,實力投資者及用家已陸續湧現,吸納潛力物業,預料工商舖市場前景樂觀。

首3季工商舖買賣量 按年升1.2倍

今年工商舖投資市場表現理想,單計首三季買賣宗數,已按年升1.2倍。後市上,業界料第四季升幅或放緩,保持約500宗水平。

有代理綜合土地註冊處資料顯示,9月份整體註冊宗數為513宗,按月下跌12.2%。整體註冊金額9月份則錄76.97億元,按月跌33.4%。若計算今年首三季表現,則遠較去年為佳。工商舖首三季註冊量突破5,000宗,為社運及疫情爆發後首次,共錄得5,418宗,按年躍升近1.2倍。註冊金額則錄744.86億元,按年升1.5倍,主要是今年大手交投熾熱帶動。

工廈註冊量 按年升約122%

分類上,首三季工廈註冊量共報2,966宗,按年升約122.3%。商廈及商舖註冊量則分別比去年同期增145.9%及96.3%,分別錄1,060及1,392宗,而整體註冊宗數為5,418宗,按年升約1.2倍,註冊金額累計達744.86億元,按年大漲1.5倍。

大手成交方面,今年以來共錄得73宗過億元買賣,比去年同期躍升1.35倍。今年以來的大手成交以工廈物業為多,共計33宗,當中16宗為全幢工廈註冊,涉資共104.16億,包括以14.35億元成交的佳寶集團中心全幢及以22.43億元成交的屯門東亞紗廠工業大廈全幢。除了全幢工廈外,分層工廈亦屢獲外資基金承接,如Silkroad基金以約11億元,購入屯門恆威工業大廈一籃子單位。

銅鑼灣連錄兩宗大額買賣

除了工廈外,今年商舖市場亦明顯向好,如銅鑼灣今年先後錄得兩宗大額買賣,包括9月份投資者葉茂林,斥5.25億元買入銅鑼灣波斯富街本德大廈一籃子舖位。除此之外,中細價舖位交投亦加快,更有短綫獲利個案。

代理表示,今年首三季,中外資金積極入市,大手投資市場氣氛保持活躍,其中工廈最受捧,尤其全幢工廈,可見各類投資者均看好工廈前景。

該代理又指,本港疫情連月來保持穩定,雖然受股市波動、通關未明朗化等影響,但現時市場資金充裕,相信工商舖成交量將繼續保持平穩,然而上升幅度將會減慢,預計成交量會保持每月約500宗。

銅鑼灣駱克駅 複式樓層合餐廳

銀座式商廈最重要是地點方便,銅鑼灣駱克駅正對港鐵站出口,有利客人前來消費,而大廈另一大特色,是設有複式樓層,供餐廳使用。

銅鑼灣屬於一個人流偏旺的地帶,附近一帶有很多的美食、購物及玩樂的地方提供,而且部分的商廈更以美食作為賣點。

消費核心地段 人流旺利營商

銅鑼灣駱克駅屬於一座以餐廳及美容為主的大廈,在每個周末吸引不少顧客前往該廈用餐。駱克駅位於銅鑼灣駱克道487至489號,物業屬於銀座式商廈用途。物業對面為銅鑼灣港鐵站C出口,交通十分便利,亦鄰近崇光百貨,是消費核心地段,人流旺有利營商。

物業於2008年落成,地下設有一個舖位,面積約1,967平方呎,於零售高峰時,曾以每月120萬元租予鐘錶店喜運佳,但2016年零售轉弱租戶遷出,及後短租予本地時裝Giordano,月租跌約60萬,及後轉由拉麵店租用,現時租戶則為食肆,配合大廈飲食主題。

地下入口設有租戶廣告板,可作宣傳之效,而大廈提供兩部升降機通往各層,值得一提,由於物業大部分為複式單位,故升降機來往的樓層不算多,疏導人流問題不大。

大廈屬樓上舖用途,每層面積約1,267平方呎,以商舖使用來說不算大,項目最大特色之一,是絕大部分樓層屬複式單位,合共9組涉及18層樓面,每組複式單位,設有內置樓梯,打通後面積達2,500平方呎,適合餐廳使用,其中一組為複式單位,涉及27及28樓,屬項目頂層連天台,十分適合天台餐廳進駐。至於景觀方面,大部分單位座望駱克道樓景。

大部分樓層 日式西餐廳進駐

租戶方面,不少租戶為餐廳,包括20及21樓、22及23樓均屬日本餐廳租用。現時,駱克駅的大部分樓層亦給日式餐廳及西餐廳進駐,其中部分的日式餐廳亦提供OMAKASE (即廚師發辦),主打高級日本菜路綫。另一方面,其他租戶包括美容中心亦成功進駐該廈,為顧客提供升級美容服務。

物業由高士威集團林子峰持有,集團於2017年,斥9.65億元購入,物業地盤面積約2,200平方呎,總樓面約3.3萬平方呎,以9.65億元成交價計,呎價約2.9萬元。

Checks flood in for The Arles near Fo Tan Station

Centralcon has received as many as 20,000 checks for 402 flats at The Arles near Fo Tan MTR Station to be launched on Saturday, marking an oversubscription of nearly 49 times.

The developer said it will launch the first round of sales as early as Saturday, probably involving more than 500 units, suggesting that some extra flats will be on offer. It has revealed two price lists for 402 units with an average price of HK$19,678.

Meanwhile, Kowloon Development (0034) named its project at Shek Kok Road as Manor Hill, offering 1,556 units in total. The smallest flat covers 200 square feet, which is expected to be the smallest among new private units in Tseung Kwan O.

The one-room units measure about 280 sq ft to more than 300 sq ft. The studio flats and one-room units account for more than 90 percent of the total figure, while the two-room flats and a few special units with a maximum area of more than 800 sq ft are available.

The development company will upload the brochure and open the show flats as early as next week and may have a chance to kick off the sales within the month.

Wheelock Properties' Koko Reserve has attracted about 4,000 visits. About 40 percent of the visitors came from Hong Kong Island East and Kowloon East each, and the rest were from the New Territories.

The company's other residential project in Tseung Kwan O, Marini, has sold all 170 parking spaces in two rounds of sales, cashing in nearly HK$370 million.

Separately, the Hong Kong Real Property Federation proposed redeveloping industrial buildings into transitional homes, speeding up the revitalization scheme for industrial buildings and leveraging Modular Integrated Construction.

This is a construction where free-standing integrated modules are manufactured in a prefabrication factory and then transported to site for installation in a building, says the Buildings Department.

Evergrande’s bid to sell Yuen Long plot, included in Hong Kong’s proposed Northern Metropolis, draws little interest

Evergrande has invested US$1.1 billion on the 2.2 million sq ft plot in the New Territories, which sits within the proposed Northern Metropolis

Evergrande, shouldering more than US$300 billion of liabilities, was reportedly willing to sell it for a US$115.6 million loss

Few buyers are likely to step forward to buy China Evergrande Group’s plot in the northern New Territories, which falls under the planned Northern Metropolis, because of the high land cost and lack of a detailed blueprint for the mega project, industry observers say.

Last Wednesday, Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor proposed a new hub covering an area of 300 sq km, with an innovation and technology corridor serving as its engine. Once the entire Northern Metropolis is fully developed, which includes the Yuen Long and North districts bordering the mainland, it will be home to 2.5 million people in 20 years, she said.

The embattled mainland developer, desperate to trim over US$300 billion of liabilities, has been looking for a buyer for a 2.2 million sq ft plot in Yuen Long on which it has invested a total of nearly HK$8.9 billion (US$1.1 billion), the Sing Tao Daily reported in August. Evergrande bought the farmland, located near the Mai Po Wetlands, from Henderson Land for HK$4.7 billion in 2019 and paid almost HK$4.2 billion this year to convert it to residential use.

Despite Evergrande’s offer to sell it for HK$8 billion, or a loss of HK$900 million, no buyer seems interested, according to market observers.

Evergrande did not respond to phone and email requests for comment by the South China Morning Post.

Property agent said that the prospective buyers could be waiting for a bigger discount as Evergrande could get increasingly desperate to offload the asset as debt payment pressure mounts.

Evergrande had planned to build 268 villas on the plot, with a typical unit measuring 2,421 sq ft on average.

“I asked many developers, with everyone saying … to sell so many houses it will be difficult,” the agent said. “The development cycle is long and so is the selling time,” Ko said, pointing to

Sun Hung Kai Properties’ Valais luxury villa community in neighbouring Sheung Shui that took years to sell.

The proposed Northern Metropolis will also include a new cross-border railway linking the city to the Qianhai economic zone in Shenzhen, and an extension of a local rail link that will stimulate development across Hong Kong’s rural hinterland.

“The government will aggressively develop the northern New Territories in the future,” said Stewart Leung, chairman of Wheelock Properties, noting that this could potentially take eight to 10 years.

Leung, however, said that he was not approached by Evergrande for the parcel.

In June, Wheelock won a parcel in Kwu Tung in the northern New Territories with a bid of HK$4.19 billion. Surveyors had estimated the plot’s value at HK$3.3 billion to HK$3.9 billion. The land is included in the proposed Northern Metropolis.

Leo Cheung, adjunct associate professor at the department of real estate and construction at University of Hong Kong, said the benefits to Evergrande’s parcel from the railways link remains to be seen as there is no detailed blueprint yet.

“That place is out in the middle of nowhere after all,” Cheung said.

金融機構重新部署 中資租國際金融中心二期


疫情緩和,金融機構重新部署,趁租金回調,升級至中環地標甲廈。消息指,中環國際金融中心二期全層樓面,原由瑞銀 (UBS) 租用,集團早前棄租,現獲一家中資資產管理公司承租,呎租約130元,較高峰期平約3成。

市場消息稱,中環國際金融中心二期錄得全層租務成交,涉及物業46樓全層,面積約2.5萬平方呎,以每平方呎約130元租出。據悉,新租客為中資機構,主力業務為資產管理,另其他業務包括家族信託管理、保險等。

據了解,該集團兩年前租用灣仔 One Hennessy 約萬餘平方呎樓面,如今因應業務擴充,增至中環國際金融中心二期全層約2.5萬平方呎樓面,兼可升級至中環甲廈地標。按最新成交呎租約130元計,已較物業高峰期近200元,平約3成。

46樓2.5萬呎 瑞銀早前棄租

是次成交樓層,原由投資銀行瑞銀租用,該集團為國際金融中心二期大租戶之一,早前決定棄租46樓約2.5萬平方呎,如今獲得承接。事實上,過去一年,因環球疫情爆發,跨國機構為縮減成本,放棄部分寫字樓單位以節省開支。

多間投資銀行年內亦棄租國際金融中心一期國際金融中心二期全層單位,不過,隨着近期市況好轉,棄租樓面紛獲承接。以國金2期為例,較早前,野村證券、法國巴黎銀行及瑞銀,先後棄租全層樓面,如今悉數獲承接,當中不少涉及中資機構,包括野村證券棄租的25樓,先後獲東莞銀行及方源資本承接。另外,法巴棄租的59樓,則獲美資機構Citadel承租,作為擴充。

中資機構在疫情下仍表現活躍,除了是次租用國際金融中心二期全層外,今年中環最大手租務亦來自中資,國際金融中心一期約5.3萬平方呎,獲中資金融機構中金公司租用。另本年中,中國人壽富蘭克林資產管理租用交易廣場中高層全層。

去年疫情嚴峻,令甲廈租務需求急降,近月本港疫情緩和,令租務氣氛稍好轉、據代理行數據顯示,今年第三季錄得正32.77萬平方呎甲廈淨吸納量,為連續兩年負吸納後首轉轉正數。空置樓面方面,目前全港甲廈待租率為13.9%,較上季14.4%稍下跌,而中環亦由11.6%跌至11%。不過,整體空置樓面仍偏高。

業界:甲廈租金尚有少許跌幅

代理認為,本港疫情緩和,租務活動稍增加,令吸納情況好轉,包括錄得中資機構擴充,不過該代理指因尚未通關,中資或外資決策人士未能來港,因此租務尚未見活躍。後市上,料通關後租務定好轉,相信今明兩年甲廈租金尚有少許跌幅,而未來數年寫字樓供應較多,令租金尚有調整壓力。

另一代理指,近來不少機構因疫情緩和,進行新一輪部署,適逢中環超甲廈租金調整,進行擴充及搬遷,或提升級數,故租務活動明顯較去年活躍。他指,中環甲廈租金已從高位回調約3成,今年跌幅放緩至約5%。

珠寶鐘表店平租核心區鋪 趁租金急挫80%率先回歸旺角尖沙嘴

珠寶鐘表店疫市下「回歸」,近期頻平租核心區地鋪,並以尖沙嘴及旺角作為目標;業內人士指出,隨核心區鋪租高位回落約80%,加上憧憬中港兩地短期內通關,預期奢侈品消費力再度浮現,吸引珠寶鐘表店蠢蠢欲動,核心區吉鋪亦有望逐步回落。

代理指,據統計資料顯示,截至今年8月珠寶鐘表銷售金額約25.08億,較去年同期的19億按年上升約32%,反映行內市況回暖,事實上,受疫情等因素打擊,核心區鋪租較高位回落約8成,加上疫情走勢平穩,市場憧憬中港兩地通關在即,吸引珠寶鐘表業趁低租金「回歸」核心區,預料同類個案於第四季陸續有來。

憧憬短期內通關

本報統計資料顯示,近期核心區錄4宗珠寶鐘表店承租個案,尖沙嘴栢麗大道更連錄承租,栢麗大道地下9號及10號鋪及1樓,謝瑞麟珠寶回歸,以每月25萬承租,以面積2768方呎計,呎租約90元。

該鋪位早年由謝瑞麟承租,2012年6月月租134萬,因業主索價180萬遷出,隨後獲恒生銀行進駐,月租155萬,惟經歷2014年佔中,2019年動亂及疫情,最新租金大跌83%,重返2005年水平。

栢麗大道鋪連錄承租

另一宗為栢麗購物大道G23號鋪及1樓12A號鋪,地下面積約651方呎,1樓面積約671方呎,獲潮州佬珠寶以9.5萬承租3年,呎租約71.9元。該鋪高峰時月租33萬,最新跌逾七成。

廣東道54至66號帝國大廈地下A鋪,約1500方呎,月租約70萬,呎租約467元,舊租客溥儀眼鏡旗下Glasstique,月租135萬,新租金跌約48%。

西洋菜南街鋪呎租167

旺角西洋菜南街67號地鋪,約900方呎,交吉逾1年,月租約15萬,呎租約167元,新租客「鎣時計」,舊租客連鎖時裝店Wanko,2019年續約時月租38萬,租約至今年首季,去年中提早遷出,最新租金急挫約60%,重返16年前水平。

呎價低水 非核心區甲廈新盤受捧

傳統商賣仍淡靜,相比之下,資金轉至非核心區甲廈樓花,因價格相對低水,吸引投資者及用家購入。

據中原統計全港10大甲廈買賣,上月僅錄3宗成交,維持極低數字,而港島區更屬零成交,反映交投極為淡靜。

力寶中心9宗租務 呎租低見36

租務方面,以力寶中心最為暢旺,錄得9宗租務,包括2座低層08室,面積約1,318平方呎,以每呎約36元租出,屬偏低水平。另外,力寶中心二座中高層06室,面積約1,913平方呎,成交呎租約49元。2座低層08室,面積約897平方呎,以每呎約44元租出。

傳統甲廈買賣淡靜,而非核心區相對暢旺,特別兩大甲廈樓花項目,銷情理想。其中。新世界 (00017) 旗下荔枝角道888號錄大手成交,項目最高3層,每層樓面介乎2.08萬至2.46萬平方呎,總樓面近6.8萬平方呎,以約12億元成交,呎價約1.76萬元,屬呎價新高。消息稱,新買家為一家中資銀行,以南洋商業銀行呼聲最高。

另外,較早前同系新創建 (00659) 以13.67億元,購入18樓至21樓共4層,總樓面96,744平方呎,呎價約14,130元。其中新創建間接全資附屬公司富通保險佔19樓及20樓兩層,涉資6.79億元,總樓面47,712平方呎。據悉,荔枝角道888號於去年尾發售,至今累售近7成樓面,套現逾54億元。

上市公司1.56 觀塘道368號

至於億京上月尾推出觀塘道368號項目,當中獲大手承接,如項目極高層33、35及36樓,其中36樓為平台特色單位,3層合共以約4.5億元成交。據了解新買家為有「手套大王」之稱的葉建明。

另中國波頓 (03318) 公布,以1.56億元,購入觀塘觀塘道368號37樓A室,實用面積約6,869平方呎,以及天台約1,025平方呎。該機構指,自2005年上市以來,集團一直於香港租用辦公室,相信透過收購該物業,可為集團節省租金開支。發展商指,項目至今已沽出15間寫字樓及2間商舖,單位面積由654至9,566平方呎,套現逾5億元。

分析指,整體投資氣氛仍不俗,惟核心區商廈空置率較高,租金仍受壓,加上持貨業主未有降價,故成交較少。相比之下,非核心區如長沙灣、觀塘等有新甲廈項目,質素理想之餘,定價亦較低水,吸引用家及投資者入市,預計短期內成交焦點仍在甲廈新盤樓花上。

大手工廈錄17宗成交 代理:按季上升88%

疫市下工廈表現「硬淨」,投資市場價量齊升。代理指出,今年第3季工廈錄17宗逾億元大手成交,涉及金額逾73億,分別按季上升約88%20%

代理發表今年第三季香港工業樓宇銷售及租賃報告,該行指工廈投資氣氛於第三季造好,錄17宗逾1億的大額成交,成交金額逾73億,較今年第二季的9宗涉資約60.8億,分別按季上升約88%20%,市場矚目成交包括外資基金Silkroad11.6億購入屯門恆威工業中心多個樓層。

恆威工中11.6億囑目

整體倉庫及現代化倉庫租金持續反彈,季內升幅分別為2.1%2.5%;整體及現代化倉庫空置率上季曾微升,本季分別下跌至3.2%2.6%。總商品貿易及零售銷貨額在本年首8個月分別按年回升27%8.1%,帶動本地物流市場表現,尤其航空物流。受惠航空貨運活動迅速回升,本地航空貨運吞吐量在本年18月的數據較去年同期顯著反彈12.6%

然而,合共約700萬方呎的新增倉庫供應於未來2年推出,市場消化能力將備受考驗。

整體倉庫租金升2.1%

代理表示,倉庫租賃表現強勁,吸引投資者持續追捧,導致價格上升及收益率下跌。

代理指,今年倉庫資產的投資氣氛持續活躍,導致本年至今價格已上升6.8%,本季收益率則跌至3.3%的歷史低位,意味投資回報正在減少。

Evergrande suffers setback as debt-stricken developer fails to sell its US$1.7 billion Hong Kong office tower to Yuexiu Property

State-backed Yuexiu Property dropped its offer to buy Evergrande’s 26-storey office tower in Wan Chai over concerns about the embattled home builder’s hefty debts, Reuters reported

The decision to pull out came after the central bank criticised Evergrande for ‘poor management’ at a media briefing on Friday in Beijing

China Evergrande has failed to sell its single largest asset to state-backed Yuexiu Property, Reuters reported, a huge blow to the debt-stricken developer’s frantic efforts to raise the funds it needs to survive.

Guangzhou government-backed Yuexiu Property dropped a proposed US$1.7 billion offer to buy Evergrande’s 26-storey office tower in Wan Chai. Reuters cited two sources saying Yuexiu’s board had opposed the move over worries that Evergrande’s unresolved indebtedness would create potential complications in completing the transaction smoothly.

Evergrande and Yuexiu did not respond to inquiries from the Post.

The embattled home builder had been seeking to sell the China Evergrande Centre  in Wan Chai that serves as its headquarters in Hong Kong to mainland peer Yuexiu Property for US$2 billion, Bloomberg and other mainland media reported in August. Evergrande paid US$1.61 billion for the building six years ago.

The deal was expected to be completed by the end of September, sources close to the matter had previously told the Post.

The decision to pull out came after the central bank criticised Evergrande for “poor management” at a media briefing on Friday in Beijing.

“The crisis of Evergrande’s management who misjudged the market conditions, and its blind expansion [in the past] has led to a deterioration of operational and financial conditions,” said Zou Lan, head of the People’s Bank of China’s financial markets department.

“We are urging it to accelerate asset disposals … Financial authorities will cooperate with urban planning agencies to ensure construction restarts.”

Evergrande, founded by Chinese tycoon Hui Ka-yan in 1996 in Guangzhou, is teetering on the brink of collapse with about US$300 billion in liabilities after years of borrowing to create an empire beyond its core property business that spans everything from electric vehicles to wealth management.

It missed interest payments on two dollar-denominated bonds in September, according to Moelis & Company, which is representing the bondholders.

It also missed coupon payments on its US dollar-denominated debt that was due last Monday, people familiar with the matter told the Post.

Evergrande faces a mountain of short-term borrowings, from bank loans to offshore bonds, totalling about 240 billion yuan (US$37.3 billion) due by the end of June next year.

In comparison, the developer’s property portfolio had 144 billion yuan of completed apartments, houses, commercial and retail spaces ready for sale as of June 30.

That means, even without considering any expenses for marketing or human resources, Evergrande would not have enough finished property projects in its entire portfolio to generate the cash to meet its financial obligations.

It has been actively selling assets – from properties to joint venture stakes – since June as it tries to stave off a liquidity crisis.

Between the end of June and August 27, the company sold properties to suppliers and contractors to offset about 25.2 billion yuan in outstanding payments as it tries to convince suppliers who have struggled to get paid for months to continue to work with it.

It also sold stakes in Hengten Networks Group, Shengjing Bank and its bottled water business.

The company’s stock has been suspended for more than a week in anticipation of a potential sale of a controlling stake in its Evergrande Property Services Group unit. Evergrande said its shares were halted ahead of an announcement about a “major transaction”, but no announcement has materialised yet.

Failing to sell the trophy building in Wan Chai would be a huge setback.

Hui bought the tower, then called the Mass Mutual Tower, on Hong Kong’s Wan Chai harbourfront from Chinese Estates in November 2015, for a record HK$12.5 billion (US$1.61 billion), paying more than the prevailing market price in a deal that JPMorgan’s analyst described as “another example of immature capital management” by Evergrande, in a note to investors.

At the time of the deal, the building had a 100 per cent occupancy rate, but today this has dropped to around three quarters, according to property consultancy.

工商鋪買賣量跌價升


受環球經濟影響,整體工商鋪市場氣氛觀望,有代理行資料顯示,9月份共錄約497宗工商鋪成交,總金額約119.54億;宗數按月微跌約9%,受大額成交帶動,金額則比8月份多出約26%。該代理行分析,環球經濟、股市前景未明朗,市場資金積極尋出路,工商鋪受惠利好消息,成為穩中求勝之選。

代理:大額成交主導

該行代理表示,根據統計,9月份市場共錄約497宗工商鋪買賣,比8月份略減約9%,按年表現持續造好,對比2020年9月增加約31%。宗數按月遞減,但受大額成交帶動下,按月總金額增長,9月錄約119.54億,按月升26%,對比去年同期更大幅多出約1.37倍。工商鋪成交量呈量跌價升,財團趁市況有所變化而加快洽購步伐,令大額成交增加。

代理續表示,9月份成交金額表現以商鋪及寫字樓市場表現較突出,月內錄2宗近兩年罕見核心區巨鋪買賣,同由資深投資者承接,包括耀才證券主席葉茂林,斥資約5.25億,購入銅鑼灣波斯富街21至27號本德大廈地下A至D號鋪連1至2樓,另有「台灣張」之稱的張彥緒亦以約7.1億買入中環畢打街20號會德豐大廈地下A號鋪連地庫。

張彥緒7.1億買中環地鋪

兩宗大額成交帶動9月鋪市金額共錄約45.88億,按月多約35%。寫字樓方面,有金融機構斥資近12億購入長沙灣荔枝角道888號3層全層樓面,呎價更創項目新高。商廈市場9月份總成交金額共約34.71億,比8月升約51%。

該代理認為,市場資金充裕,在全球量化寬鬆的政策下,現金貶值,部分投資者轉投物業。工商鋪自去年底起陸續受惠多個利好消息,例如提高按揭成數上限,以及撤銷雙倍印花稅等,加上物業價格調整,入市成本驟降,吸引投資者目光。預計氣氛持續穩定,價格下調幅度慢慢收窄。

廣播道地掀財團爭奪

政府全方位覓地,積極推住宅地增供應,九龍塘廣播道79號住宅地將於本周五截標,據業內人士指出,市區豪宅地屬罕有供應,吸引各大中型發展商競投,項目市場估值約12.8億至15.75億,樓面呎價由1.8萬至2.2萬;同時,新地、嘉華、佳明及遠展均表示有意入標。

市場估值逾12

新地副董事總經理雷霆稱,集團會對項目研究入標;嘉華國際營業及市場策劃總經理 (香港地產) 溫偉明,集團現正對項目作研究入標;遠展地產總裁方文昌表示,集團現正對項目作研究入標。

佳明集團營業及市務總監顏景鳳表示,市區豪宅地皮一向為市場罕有供應,買少見少,加上該項目位處傳統豪宅地段,發展潛力被看高一綫,相信除吸引大型發展商外,亦會吸引中小型發展參與角逐,集團亦會研究地皮的可朔性,考慮入標競投。

新地嘉華有意入標

有測量師指出,市區地皮買少見少,該項目更位處傳統豪宅地段,估計每呎地價約1.8萬至2.2萬,項目市場估值約12.8億至15.75億,料興建中大型分層單位為主。

可建總樓面約7.1萬呎

另一測量師稱,由於傳統豪宅區地皮買少見少,再加上是次項發展目規模小,總投資額低,預測中小型發展商亦會加入戰團角逐,料發展商出價進取,估計每呎地價由1.95萬至2.1萬,市場估值約13.9億至15億。

項目前身為香港電台教育電視中心,地盤面積約23864方呎,可建總樓面約71591方呎,將於本月22日 (本周五) 截標。

中資承租國際金融中心全層 每呎130元重返六年前

近期隨着疫情放緩,企業趁勢平租甲廈,中環國際金融中心二期全層樓面,舊租客瑞銀 (UBS),最新獲一家中資資產管理公司承租,平均每呎約130元,較高位跌約30%,租金重返2015年、即六年前水平。

市場消息指,中環國際金融中心二期46樓全層,建築面積約2.5萬方呎,獲中資金融機構承租,平均呎價約130元,月租325萬。新租客以Amber Hill Capital呼聲高,該公司主要業務為資產管理,兩年前承租灣仔商廈,隨着業務擴充,提升層級進駐中環頂級甲廈國金。該全層舊租客瑞銀,市況高峰期,呎租高達200元,最新呎租較高峰時跌約30%,重返2015年、即六年前水平。

AmberHillCapital呼聲高

事實上,今年以來,連同上述租賃,國際金融中心至少暫錄得4宗中資機構租賃個案,對上1宗為近期,國際金融中心一期亦錄中金公司承租,涉及2全層共約5.3萬方呎,呎租料約130元,於市況高峰時,國際金融中心一期呎租高達180元,租金較高峰期回落近30%。中金公司早於2000年進駐國金,其後不斷擴充,今番承租的5.3萬方呎,包括早前澳洲基金麥格理棄租樓面,合共約5.3萬方呎,連同集團原租用的7萬方呎續租,共涉約12萬方呎,是該廈最大租戶。

中資連環進駐 今年暫錄四宗

有外資代理行指,今年第三季寫字樓租賃活動增加,金融保險業及服務式辦公室擴充,令寫字樓兩年來首次出現正吸納,第三季租金跌幅亦按季收窄,幅度只有1.2%,更是自2019年第三季度以來首次錄正吸納量,數量高達32.77萬方呎。

另外,第三季待租率由次季14.4%略微下降到13.9%,反映寫字樓租賃擴張,新寫字樓租賃活動以金融和服務式辦公室為主。第三季頂租個案減少6.2萬方呎,按季減少12%。

該行預計,第四季寫字樓租金將進一步下降1%至1.5%,正吸納將在第四季繼續,預計本季的待租率維持13.9%,交易將圍繞新的供應和管理良好的租賃組合。

泉章居三億放售旺角鋪 受疫情影響老牌食肆受重擊

在疫情持續的影響下,老牌食肆受重擊,著名客家菜泉章居,早前關閉旺角的奶路臣街分店,近期已將巨鋪出租予日式食肆,此自用多年的巨鋪,現時更推出市場放售,意向價三億。

泉章居低調關閉旺角分店,近期為此巨鋪覓新租客日式食肆,月租35萬,泉章居董事總經理陳煒輝接受本報查詢時表示,新租客簽下6年約,梗約及生約各3年,生約時可加租10%,月租由35萬調整至38.5萬。

日式食肆簽六年約

他表示,在疫情持續下,大型食肆生意難做,加上家族第二代,年事已高,他亦逐漸淡出市場,部署退休,繼兩年前關閉銅鑼灣店址後,奶路臣街分店亦不做,日後並不打算重開,家族成員取得共識,將此巨鋪放售,意向價3億元。

泉章居旺角分店,位處奶路臣街33至37號依利大廈地下E鋪及2樓全層,地下建築面積約2500方呎,1樓建築面積約9500方呎,合共約1.2萬方呎,若以意向價計算,平均每呎2.7萬。該家族於2003年6月斥資4680萬連約購入,物業一直自用。

意向呎價2.7

翻查資料,上址巨鋪早於泉章居陳氏家族購入前,由中式酒家稻香承租多年。

根據土地註冊處資料顯示,稻香於2001年月租為38萬,新租金較20年前還要便宜。

陳煒輝亦表示,他們自用該旺角巨鋪最初幾年,當年市況好景,記得於2005年時,下午五時晚飯,三時多門口有長龍在,多年來,該店以做本地客為主,遊客比例小。

雖然如此,於今年1月公布的《香港澳門米芝蓮指南2021》,泉章居旺角店仍然入圍「必比登推介」,屬於具質素且經濟實惠的美食,盛惠400元,即享3道菜的平價版餐廳推介。

泉章居於兩年前關閉位處銅鑼灣廣場一期據點,隨着旺角分店不再營業,目前唯一剩下上環干諾道中誠信大廈分店,鋪址為承租的。

05年賣銅鑼灣鋪勁賺兩億

泉章居曾於2005年5月,出售銅鑼灣自用巨鋪予禹銘集團,作價3億,位於波斯富街108至120地下B號地鋪,約2000方呎,1樓及2樓面積分別約9700方呎,合共約2.14萬方呎。

當時,鋪位還是剛剛新裝修,不料獲投資者高價洽購,最終沽售。銅鑼灣店鋪早年購入,1986年開張,當時沽貨勁賺逾2億。

在沽售銅鑼灣鋪位後,當時,泉章居已有意結業,但人稱「輝叔」的泉章居董事總經理陳錫輝,向董事局努力爭取下,終於決定以月租60萬租用銅鑼灣廣場,面積2萬呎,繼續經營,直至兩年前,政治運動引起動亂,大型食肆備受影響,泉章居在約滿後結束營業。

樓市健康發展 價格可平穩向上

資策鍾楚義:地產投資較穩健 政府可寬按揭

疫情無阻樓價破頂,資本策略主席鍾楚義認為,剛性需求強勁,樓價可以平穩向上,豪宅市場則需待通關才有力再上。他又提到,地產比起其他投資產品穩健,建議政府進一步放寬按揭。

疫情持續一年多,對本港住宅樓價不僅未有衝擊,新盤更是熱賣,如年內啟德、黃竹坑新盤很快沽清,樓價破頂。鍾楚義認為,上車盤一直暢旺,兼用家主導,問題不大,「疫情至今,新盤熱銷,成交量已反映物業獲認同。樓市健康發展,上車盤穩健,不過負擔力始終有限,價錢不會大升,平穩每年3至5%升幅,相信價格到某一個位便開始整固。」

未來3至5 樓價不會受影響

豪宅市場上,特別超級豪宅,交投稍為放緩,他認為主因未通關,「超級豪宅特別3,000呎以上,大部分買家為內地客,現時難來港睇樓。以集團渣甸山皇第為例,成交集中於細單位,銀碼約2億元左右,大單位仍是去貨較慢,要等待通關才可加快。不過要留意,中國市場近日政策改變,股市受挫,內地富豪入市或會小心一點。」

整體而言,他對樓市甚有信心,特別在投資角度上,比起其他投資產品穩定,「從宏觀角度,全世界物價上升,樓價亦向上。以各類投資工具比較,地產較長綫,不易被「震散」。近來股市、債券表現差,資金有轉向樓市。」正因投資上相對穩,他建議政府進一步放寬按揭,「豪宅二手市場問題是按揭太低,僅4成,影響流通量。政府是時候檢討按揭,一些投資者原本有興趣買豪宅作投資,首期不夠,轉向投資股票、債券,最近相關投資跌3至5成,難免損手。我認為銀行評估風險便可,不需金管局定下規範。」

樓價升跌,關鍵在需求與供應,而供應方面,在最新一份施政報告中,提及發展北部都會區,長綫增加供應。鍾楚義相信,對私樓衝擊不大,「增加供應定是好事,特別提供很多公營房屋,給予無能力買樓的一群,對樓市衝擊不大,何況供應需時,未來3至5年樓價不會受影響。未來格局上,供應增加,如果結合大灣區,香港變成7,000萬人市場,需求同樣增強,故樓市仍向好。」

彌敦道項目動工 涉約200

至於政府有意降低強拍門檻,加快市區重建,他認為是好事,並分析當局要審視制度更重要,「有些收購項目,主因釘子戶為利益,向法庭申請,從而拖延時間,加重發展商成本。我認為要重新審視制度,不需太多法律程序,便不會令一戶拖垮整個重建項目。」

集團項目部署上,位於彌敦道諾富特酒店獲批重建,他指已開始動工,項目可興建約14萬平方呎,最細單位料300平方呎起,涉約200伙住宅,可享海景。連同地價,總投資約40億至50億元,預計一年後有望發售。至於上水洋房項目涉及6伙,每伙約7,000餘平方呎,他指已完成示範單位,最快月內推出。

Fo Tan flats lead brisk weekend sales

The Arles in Fo Tan sold at least 116 flats yesterday and 271 on Saturday, totaling 387 of the 536 flats on offer in the first round of sales.

The developer Centralcon Properties expected 80 to 90 percent of the units would be sold over the weekend, and the fourth price list would be released soon with the second batch of flats hitting the market as soon as next Saturday.

The project provides 1,335 homes, ranging from studios to three-bedroom flats with saleable areas from 228 to 2,001 square feet.

Meanwhile, Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016) cashed in HK$352.5 million for selling the first tender of Central Peak II in Mid-Levels East yesterday with an average price of HK$95,425 per sq ft, the highest for the Central Peak series.

The 3,695 sq-ft luxury home with a total of 4 suites, has a 1,126 sq-ft garden, a 767 sq-ft roof and 290 sq-ft front courtyard and two parking spaces in the basement.

The secondary market also performed well with 11 deals recorded among property agency's top 10 housing estates over the weekend.

That number was a 450 percent increase from last week when the typhoon deterred buyers from viewing homes.

Property agents expects second-hand property trading volumes to be stable in the second half of the month as a number of new projects come into focus and absorb a lot of capital from the market.

This came as the Urban Renewal Authority is trying out a new way to reconstruct the city by collecting homeowners' opinions via a survey and using the feedback for community planning, said managing director Ir Wai Chi-sing in his blog.

The URA will take the lead in conducting this type of survey in the old district of Sai Wan Ho, involving about 250 buildings over 30 years old, Wai wrote.

There are several reasons for choosing this area for the pilot survey - it is easier to handle because of its relatively smaller size, it has different types of buildings, and is home to different community facilities, Wai noted, adding that the URA will send letters to the target owners to participate in the survey shortly.

The survey is expected to be completed by the end of the year and the analysis will start as soon as next year.

Centralcon’s Sha Tin project sees sales continue apace as smaller flats attract price-sensitive end users rather than investors

Sales continued apace on day two at The Arles as the developer allocated smaller flats that tend to appeal to genuine end users, who are more price-sensitive than people buying purely to invest

The Arles is a crucial test of whether Hong Kong’s residential property bull run can maintain its momentum in October

Sales continued apace on day two of a residential project launch in Sha Tin as the developer allocated smaller flats that tend to appeal to genuine end users, who are more price-sensitive than people buying purely to invest.

Centralcon Properties, a local developer, had sold 170 of the remaining 265 units at The Arles near Fo Tan subway station in the eastern New Territories as of 8pm, according to sources. That brought the total weekend sales at the development to 83 per cent of 536 units.

The 265 flats that went on sale today included 103 that did not find buyers on the first day of sales on Saturday. As of midnight last night, 271 of 374 units had found buyers.

“The second day sale is easier to find buyers as more one- and two-bedroom flats are being offered at HK$6 million (US$770,000) and HK$8 million,” property agent said.

On the first day, buyers were required to buy more than one unit including a three-bedroom flat, agents said, meaning much of the demand came from investors who did not intend to occupy their new residence.

The Arles is a crucial test of whether Hong Kong’s residential property bull run can maintain its momentum in October. It is also the first sales launch in the area since Hong Kong’s Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor unveiled her plan to build a Northern Metropolis close to the southern border of mainland China, where 2.5 million people may live within 20 years.

“Eighty per cent of the turnout at the sales office on the second day are end users, because the developer has allocated more flats in smaller sizes for sale,” another property agent said.

The agent expects 600 new flats to be sold in Hong Kong over the weekend, raising the total number of transactions to 2,000 in October.

If Kowloon Development manages to launch its new project, Manor Hill in Tsueng Kwan O, this month, he said that would increase to 2,500 deals, which would be the highest number for almost a year. Manor Hill comprises 1,556 units in two residential towers.

“It will set a new high since last November,” the agent said.

Sales at The Arles got off to a brisk start on Sunday morning.

“Fifty units have been reserved in the first 30 minutes,” said Terence Yang, strategic sales director at Centralcon.

He said 271 flats worth HK$3 billion had been sold on the first day, with the biggest deal involving four units.

Forty per cent of buyers on Saturday were investors, while the rest intended to live in their new purchases, said Yang.

When fully completed in March 2023, The Arles will comprise 1,335 apartments of between 228 and 947 square feet, selling for between HK$6.17 million and HK$23.5 million after factoring in a 15 per cent discount, as is the industry norm.

With fewer big-ticket transactions, Hong Kong’s luxury market has not yet fully recovered to pre-pandemic levels.

At the weekend, a 4,600 sq ft luxury penthouse in the Mid-Levels formerly owned by Chen Feng, the founder of the sprawling HNA Group, changed hands for HK$312 million, according to Chinese media. The distressed sale price was 28 per cent lower than what Chen – who was detained by police three weeks ago on “suspected crimes” – paid in 2015.

The luxury penthouse was put up for sale by creditors in August.

The fully furnished four-bedroom flat is on the 45th floor of 39 Conduit Road, Mid-Levels, one of the most prestigious addresses in the world’s most expensive property market.

It was bought by Billion Able Corporation in April 2015 for HK$433 million, or HK$94,150 per square foot, according to Land Registry and Companies Registry records. Chen Feng, the founder and former chairman of HNA, was the director of Billion Able.

商廈兩年來首錄正吸納量 代理行:租金下跌帶動租賃


有代理行指,疫情持續下,寫字樓租金下跌帶動租賃,金融保險業及服務式辦公室擴充,寫字樓兩年來首次出現正吸納,第三季租金跌幅亦按季收窄,預計第四季待租率維持平穩,租金僅下跌1%至1.5%。

該行代理表示,今年第三季寫字樓租賃活動增加,租金下調速度放緩,跌幅較首兩季收窄至按季跌1.2%,更是自2019年第三季度以來首次錄正吸納量,數量高達32.77萬方呎。

銀行金融業擴充

另外,第三季待租率由次季14.4%略微下降到13.9%,反映寫字樓租賃擴張,新寫字樓租賃活動以金融和服務式辦公室為主。第三季頂租個案減少6.2萬方呎,按季減少12%。

該行預計,第四季寫字樓租金將進一步下降1%至1.5%,正吸納將在第四季繼續,預計本季的待租率維持13.9%,交易將圍繞新的供應和管理良好的租賃組合。

第四季租金將跌1%至1.5%

該代理指,未來幾年寫字樓似乎供過於求,隨新供應增加,預料待租率面積需要2至3年消化,待租率才能回落至單位數,故未來2至3年寫字樓租金難以上調,料持續橫行。

待租率需時兩至三年消化

該行另一代理指,相比第二季,第三季的租賃活動增加,以銀行及金融 (27%)、保險 (15%) 以及商務中心/共用工作空間 (12%) 最為活躍。頂租面積按季跌12%(只有約6.2萬方呎)。

代理認為,「北部都會區」大部分土地將作為創科業使用,加上本身的「維港都會區」,兩個都會區可「做大個餅」,對本港未來10至20年寫字樓需求產生正面作用。

另一代理指,今年第三季零售銷售額理想,年初至今整體銷售額較去年同期增加8.1%,當中珠寶鐘表及時裝類一枝獨秀。

核心區餐飲鋪租按季上升

一綫街鋪租金開始復甦,預期第二次消費券繼續增強。四大核心區街鋪租金按季升最多1.3%,屯門及元朗鋪租亦升逾1%。四大核心區餐飲鋪租按季升2至逾3%。旺角及中環空置率分別降至10.9及8.5%,但銅鑼灣空置率升至13.2%,相信情況要等通關才能改善。

三幢工廈放寬地積比重建

工廈活化工廈計畫延長至2024年10月,近期錄3宗申請重建,最矚目為由「物流張」之稱的資深投資者張順宜持有的民生物流中心。

民生物流涉41.5萬方呎

據城規會文件顯示,項目位於屯門洪祥路3B號,曾於2015年獲批改裝為辦公室及商店及服務行業/私人會所/食肆用途;最新向城規會放寬地積比率限制。上述項目地盤面積約36401方呎,申請放寬地積比率約20%發展,由9.5倍增加至11.4倍,以重建為一幢樓高20層 (包括2層地庫) 的工廈,可建總樓面約414967方呎。

瑞康地積比增至逾12

另外,億京今年7月斥資4.98億購入葵涌瑞康工業大廈,最新申請放寬20%地積比率,重建一幢樓高24層新式工廈,總樓面約17.68萬方呎。地盤面積14463方呎,地積比率由10.186倍增加至12.223倍,重建為樓高24層 (包括1層地庫) 的新式工廈,涉總樓面約176779方呎。

北部都會區帶動 粉嶺工業區升格

《施政報告》提出「北部都會區」願景,連粉嶺安樂村工業區亦受惠,將會由「工業」用途升級為「商貿及創科」地帶,提供共享工作間吸引初創企業進駐,並將會興建鐵路接駁。

工業轉型商貿創科發展

鄰近粉嶺聯和墟的安樂村工業區,範圍達351.1萬平方呎,現時屬於「工業」規劃用途。區內由98幢工業大廈,及政府持有的20幅休憩用地、臨時停車場等組成。有見社會對工廈、貨倉仍然有相當需求,因此規劃署之前決定保留該區作為「工業」規劃用途,並放寬規劃發展限制。不過,根據最新《施政報告》提出的「北部都會區」計劃,就提出為配合港深緊密互動圈發展創科經濟的方向,可將粉嶺安樂村工業區由「工業」地帶改劃為「其他指定(商貿及創科)」地帶,為工業區轉型助力,提供共享工作間鼓勵初創企業進駐。

政府認為,改劃土地用途地帶可對市場主動釋出土地最新規劃意向的信息,而在改劃土地的同時,可參考起動九龍東的成功經驗,改善公共空間及行人系統,採取積極政策推動轉型改造。同時,政府提出北環綫東延,從古洞站東延,接駁香港羅湖及文錦渡地區以及新界北新市鎮各發展節點,可在粉嶺安樂村工業區設站,並以無縫的行人系統連接粉嶺站,預計將會帶動整個安樂村工業區發展、轉型。

三成半樓面建數據中心

事實上,區內近年亦有7個工廈興建或活化項目,共提供逾114萬平方呎樓面,當中至少3個將會發展成為數據中心,涉及40.2萬平方呎,佔整體樓面供應約35%,可見發展數據中心方面的潛力。當中新加坡豐樹產業於本年初,以約8.1294億元投得的粉嶺安樂門街工業地,面積約4.34萬平方呎,以地積比率約5倍發展,最高可建樓面約21.7萬平方呎,以每平方呎樓面地價約3,750元計,創下新界北區工業地呎價新高。

豐樹產業將會用作為集團首個位於香港的數據中心,並計劃出租予終端使用者或數據中心營運商等。該數據中心除了服務本地用家外,亦會提供良好及快速的網絡予深圳的雲端用家,及其餘內地主要城市的用家。

另外,去年佳明旗下兩間全資附屬公司,亦分別以約1.68億及約1.88億元,購入粉嶺安居街3號及粉嶺安福街7號地皮,兩幅地皮面積分別約1.79萬及1.91萬平方呎,佳明亦表示購入地皮後,將興建兩座數據中心,並作租賃用途。

HKTDC sells two Peak homes to Cheng family for $185m

The Hong Kong Trade Development Council sold two units with parking spaces at Villa Verde on The Peak for HK$185.3 million to a grandson of the late founder of New World Development, Cheng Yu-tung.

The two connected units, measuring 2,311 square feet each, changed hands at HK$93 million and HK$92.3 million in September, data from the Land Registry showed. This suggested an average price of around HK$40,000 per sq ft. The two units came with one parking space each.

The history of the properties dated back to 1970 when the statutory body acquired three units and three parking spaces at the projects for a total of HK$621,600. Together with one parking space, the average price for one luxury unit stood at about HK$207,200, suggesting that the council had a paper gain of more than HK$184 million in selling the two flats after holding the properties for 51 years.

The buyers of the two flats are Cheng Chi-him and Joyce Ho Wai-chung, who are believed to be the grandson of New World Development's Cheng, and his spouse.

The Trade Development Council sold a flat with a car park at Woodland Heights in Wong Nai Chung Gap for HK$96 million at the beginning of this year. This followed an investment of HK$150,000 in 1967. It suggested a price growth of 639 times after 54 years. The council has cashed out more than HK$281.3 million in selling properties in less than one year.

Meanwhile, Kennedy 38, a project in Kennedy Town jointly developed by Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016), Wheelock Properties and Henderson Land Development (0012), is expected to launch sales in early November.

Hong Kong’s office rental market shows signs of recovery as more space is taken up than vacated for first time in two years

The three months to September saw ‘net absorption’ for the first time in two years, meaning more space was taken up than vacated, according to property agency

The property services giant said there had been a ‘resurgence in transactions’ in the third quarter among finance firms and insurers

Hong Kong’s office rental market is showing signs of recovery after being battered by 2019’s social unrest and the Covid-19 pandemic that immediately followed it.

The three months to September saw “net absorption” for the first time in two years, meaning more space was taken up than left empty, according to property agency.

The property services giant halved its forecast for the overall average rental decline this year from a range of 8 to 13 per cent to between 4 and 6 per cent. The average rent per square foot in Hong Kong has already sunk 26.4 per cent from a peak of HK$75.9 in April 2019, to HK$55.9 in the third quarter of this year.

“Compared to the relatively low levels of tenant movement in the second quarter, we saw a resurgence of transaction activity in the third quarter with several notable deals concluded by tenants from within the banking and finance, insurance and business centre [and] co-working sectors,” property agent said.

As a result, the amount of office space being surrendered dropped 12 per cent from the previous quarter, equating to a reduction of 62,000 square feet in total. Surrendering means abandoning offices before the contracts expire.

The overall office space availability rate dipped slightly to 13.9 per cent in the third quarter and will probably continue to drop at a similar pace through to the end of 2021, according to the agency. 

Chinese investment bank CICC expanded its office space at One International Finance Centre by about 32,600 sq ft when it renewed its contract, according to a report by another agency.

As for the retail market, property agency said insurance companies were boosting the sector by taking advantage of lower rents to expand.

“We are seeing more insurance companies actively expanding, aiming to engage with potential and existing customers further. We anticipate insurance service centres may be an upcoming trend, taking advantage of the lowered retail rentals,” property agent.

Retail space occupancy levels gradually improved in most districts. Mong Kok and Central outperformed other areas, the agent said.

When asked about the government’s recently announced plans to develop the Northern New Territories, agent said focusing the innovative technology industry there will lead to a rise in the white-collar working population in the Northern Metropolis, and a subsequent rise in demand for office buildings.

“It will also stimulate the local retail and food and beverage [sector],” the agent added.

CK Asset and Henderson Land set to launch housing projects in proposed Northern Metropolis

CK Asset is close to announcing the launch of the 341-unit #Lyos housing development in Hung Shui Kui in the northern New Territories

Henderson Land’s yet-to-be named project in Fanling, close to the proposed On Lok Tsuen station on the Northern Link, is awaiting presale approval

CK Asset Holdings and Henderson Land Development are likely to see to huge interest in their upcoming projects in the northern New Territories, as investors bet on an improvement in infrastructure in the area following the announcement of the proposed Northern Metropolis.

The two projects will provide close to 2,000 units in Hung Shui Kui and Fanling, close to the mainland border, which come under Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor’s Northern Metropolis plan that aims to have 2.5 million residents within 20 years. It will also include a “Silicon Valley” that will closely interact with neighbouring Shenzhen.

“We have received a surge in inquiries on home prices in areas close to these new projects, with some investors indicating they were interested in buying existing flats as a long-term investment in anticipation of upcoming projects that will be offered at higher prices,” property agent said.

CK Asset is about to kick off the marketing push for the #Lyos housing development comprising 341 units in Hung Shui Kui, which is expected to be served by a new rail link connecting Shenzhen’s burgeoning Qianhai economic zone. The rail link is as an extension of the planned HK$62 billion (US$8 billion) Northern Link to cater for the newly announced eightfold expansion of Qianhai.

The #Lyos development is expected to be completed in September 2023, but there is no concrete timetable on the completion of the rail link connecting Hung Shui Kui to Qianhai.

Units in Hung Shui Kui currently fetch between HK$12,000 and HK$15,000 per square foot, according to property agency.

A 572 sq ft unit at the 26-year-old Meadowlands development in Hung Shui Kiu is on the market for HK$6.5 million, or HK$11,364 per sq ft, while the asking price for a 471 sq ft flat at the three-year-old Park Villa is HK$7.3 million, or HK$15,499 per sq ft, according to the agency.

In Fanling North, Henderson Land’s yet-to-be named project at 8 Ma Sik Road, close to the proposed On Lok Tsuen station, is awaiting presale approval. The Northern Link extension will connect Kam Sheung Road, Lok Ma Chau border checkpoint and Tuen Mun to the MTR’s Tsuen Wan line.

While the entire development will have 1,576 units, phase one comprises 600 units and is expected to be completed in the first half of 2022.

“Now is the perfect timing to release these new flats for presale,” agent said.

At present, home prices in Fanling and Sheung Shui were about HK$15,000 per square foot, about 16 per cent lower than the HK$18,000 per square foot in Kowloon, another agent said.

“The lower prices in the Northern New Territories is mainly because of its inaccessibility. Once the transport infrastructure improves, the price gap between the area and Kowloon will narrow,” the agent said.

Some owners have held back their sale after Carrie Lam said an innovation and technology corridor will serve as the engine of the planned 300 sq km Northern Metropolis, the agent said, adding that he expects to see an increasing interest in the area among prospective investors.

“Most flat viewing appointments were cancelled due to the heavy rain on Saturday and the Typhoon No 8 signal on Sunday. We expect the area to attract more attention and flat seekers to hunt for ‘treasures’ before prices move up,” the agent said.

Separately, another property agency said that it expects the growth pace of home rents in the New Territories to outperform Kowloon over the next five to 10 years.

Upon full development of the entire Northern Metropolis, the total number of jobs would increase substantially from 116,000 at present to about 650,000, including 150,000 jobs related to innovation and technology.

“More people will come to work and create leasing demand,” agent said.

葵涌工廈重建料獲批

近年不少工廈申請重建發展,其中,葵涌業成街1415號今年初曾向城規會申請放寬兩成地積比,以重建成一幢樓高22層的現代工業大廈,最新獲規劃署不反對,周五 (15) 將於城規會舉行會議審議,料可「開綠燈」通過。

申改建22層高工廈

據城規會文件顯示,上述項目現時屬「工業」用途地帶,地盤面積約14199方呎,申請放寬兩成地積比率限制,由9.5倍增至11.4倍發展,而建築物高度由主水平基準以上120米,以重建一幢樓高22(包括2層地庫及1層平台) 的現代工業大廈,涉及可建總樓面約161866方呎,另設有28個車位,包括15個私家車車位。

申請人曾指,申請完全符合政策方向,亦合乎規劃政策有關重整葵涌工業區土地用途,及回應香港再工業化的政策。

規劃署不反對申請

擬議發展項目可加速葵涌工業區的活化進展,並落實後移樓宇以改善街道環境。

規劃署認為,上述重建方案符合工業地帶的規劃意向,建築物高限亦沒有超出主水平基準以上120米的限制,擬建的發展項目設計提供泊車設施、裝卸車位和車輛通道、土地污染、污水及視覺影響等評估,均符合相關部門的要求,故不反對上述有關申請。而城規會將於周五 (15) 舉行會議審議,料可獲通過。

體育用品店 80萬租中環3900呎舖

租金跌近半 品牌趁機進駐核心地段

中環商舖租務明顯增加,皇后大道中萬年大廈舖位,面積約3,900平方呎,以每月約80萬元租出,新租客體育用品Under Armour。該舖原由平治汽車租用,作餐廳及展銷等概念店,月租約150萬元,新租金跌近半。

市場消息指,中環皇后大道中錄得大手商舖租務,涉及萬年大廈地下及閣樓,面積約3,900平方呎,成交月租料約80萬元。該舖比鄰興瑋大廈及娛樂行,屬皇后大道中核心位置,人流暢旺。

據了解,舖位由體育用品Under Armour租用,該品牌主打運動服裝及波鞋。品牌早年亦曾租用同區複式舖位,涉及擺花街3842號兩層,面積合共約3,000餘平方呎,2015年時月租60萬元。相信該品牌見核心一綫地段租金回落,即趁機進駐。

高峰期月租曾見250

翻查資料,萬年大廈舖位早年由名錶Omega租用,零售高峰期時月租高見250萬元;2018年平治汽車原租用娛樂行地下舖位作餐廳,及後以150萬元,改租用萬年大廈地下及閣樓。平治汽車租用後,設概念店Mercedes Me Store,門口擺放房車,另一邊設餐廳、咖啡廳等,甚具特色。如今Under Armour以每月約80萬元租用舖位,租金跌約47%,若與零售高峰期比較,跌幅高見68%

去年疫情嚴峻,多個品牌先後棄租中環皇后大道中複式舖位,令地段空置率甚高。據代理數據顯示,今年首季中環商舖空置率曾高見16.2%,而隨着多宗大手租務近月落實,空置率跌至最新約9.3%,大幅跌6.9個百分點。

中環商舖空置率 跌至9.3%

近月大手租務包括萬年大廈比鄰的興瑋大廈地下及1樓,面積約6,500平方呎,原由Adidas租用,及後獲恒生銀行以每月約120萬元租用,租金跌約6成。至於對面的陸海通大廈地下至2樓,面積約7,159平方呎,原為GAP時裝旗艦店,年中獲American Eagle以每月約100萬元承接,早前正式開業。

土瓜灣舊樓強拍底價9.62

近年恒基併購紅磡及土瓜灣一帶舊樓群,陸續踏入收成期;最新的土瓜灣落山道、美華街及下鄉道舊樓群、獲土地審裁處批出強拍令,底價9.62億,對比2019年4月提出申請時市場估值約7.0659億,高出約37.4%。

恒基持約96%業權

據土地審裁處文件顯示,是次獲批強拍令的項目位於土瓜灣落山道58至70號、美華街1至9號及下鄉道18至20號;上述財團由申請強拍時持有約84.292%業權,最新增持至96.239%業權,目前僅餘下4個單位未成功收購。

根據判詞指出,申請人曾委託結構工程師對該舊樓進行結構評估,認為該建築物已達其設計壽命,加上維修情況欠佳,部分設施未能符合現代安全標準和法定要求,而且維修成本與重建成本不成比例,重建發展是合適做法。

底價較07年高37%

現址樓齡約61年的商住物業,地下為商鋪,樓上則為住宅樓層,地盤面積約10196方呎,現為「住宅 (甲類)」用途,如重建成商住發展,預計可建總樓面約91764方呎。資料顯示,恒基已就土瓜灣道68A至70C號申請強拍,而據恒基年報顯示,計畫將上述地盤土瓜灣道,連同是次獲批強拍令的項目合併發展,總地盤面積增至4.2萬方呎,料重建後自佔商住總樓面約37.4355萬方呎。

Evergrande's US$1.7b Hong Kong headquarters sale flops as buyer withdraws: sources

Chinese state-owned Yuexiu Property has pulled out of a proposed US$1.7 billion deal to buy China Evergrande Group's Hong Kong headquarters building over worries about the developer's dire financial situation, two sources said.

The collapse of the talks for the landmark building's sale is another setback for cash-strapped Evergrande which has been scrambling to divest some assets to repay creditors knocking on its doors. With more than US$300 billion in liabilities, it has already missed three rounds of interest payments on its international bonds.

Yuexiu, based in the southern city of Guangzhou, was close to sealing a deal in August to acquire the 26-storey China Evergrande Centre in Hong Kong's Wan Chai district that serves as Evergrande's local headquarters, said the sources.

The deal, however, faltered after Yuexiu's board opposed the move over worries that Evergrande's unresolved indebtedness would create potential complications in completing the transaction smoothly, they said.

Once China's top-selling developer, Shenzhen-based Evergrande has in recent months sought to raise funds by offloading assets - from properties to stakes in subsidiaries - both in mainland China and in Hong Kong.

Evergrande and Yuexiu did not respond to requests for comment.

The people declined to be identified due to confidentiality constraints.

Evergrande bought the harbourside building, which is located in Hong Kong's commercial and night life district and covers an area of 345,000 square feet, from local peer Chinese Estates Holdings for HK$12.5 billion (US$1.61 billion) in 2015.

That deal set a record for a single transaction of a commercial building in the Asian financial hub with the highest price per square foot at the time. It also made the property Evergrande's single largest asset in the city.

Evergrande has financed the bulk of the transaction with securitised products worth more than HK$10 billion, said one of the sources, which means it would only recoup limited cash from the sale of the building.

EVERGRANDE PROSPECTS

The board of Yuexiu, which focuses on property developments in China's Greater Bay Area and has a presence in Hong Kong, became concerned about the deal's certainty at a time when Evergrande's future is uncertain, said one of the sources.

Yuexiu also received guidance from the municipal government of the southern city of Guangzhou to put the purchase on hold at the end of August, said the person.

A separate source familiar with the matter said the deal was halted in late August because the Guangzhou government wanted to review the overall financial situation of Evergrande first to better understand the use of proceeds from its asset disposals.

The Guangzhou government did not respond to a request for comment.

Separately, Evergrande is in final talks to sell a 51% stake in its property management arm Evergrande Property Services to domestic peer Hopson Development, in a deal that could fetch about HK$20 billion, said two of the sources.

One of them said both parties are finalising details including financing for the buyer.

When asked about the deal, Hopson said any comments will have to wait till an announcement is made.

The Hopson deal would be Evergrande's largest asset sale yet if it goes ahead. The struggling developer's other business interests include a bottling water company and an electric vehicle maker.

It is also close to selling its Guangzhou FC Soccer stadium and surrounding residential projects to Guangzhou City Construction Investment Group, Reuters reported last month. -- Reuters

Centralcon’s Sha Tin housing project launch gets off to a slow start as buyers hold out for better options amid robust supply

Centralcon Properties managed to sell 271 flats, or 72 per cent of the first 374 units earmarked for sale at The Arles in Sha Tin on Saturday, sources said

The first batch of The Arles flats averaged HK$20,265 (US$2,605) per square foot, 5 per cent cheaper than Pavilia Farm at the Tai Wai station nearby

A weekend property sale got off to a slow start in Hong Kong, as homebuyers balked at flats offered by lesser known developers in a market where thousands of new flats are waiting to launch this year.

Centralcon Properties, a local developer, managed to sell 271 flats, or 72 per cent of the first 374 units earmarked for sale at The Arles in Sha Tin on Saturday, according to sources. Another 162 flats at the same project are scheduled for sale on Sunday.

The Arles, located near the Fo Tan subway station in eastern New Territories, is a crucial test of whether Hong Kong’s residential property bull run can maintain its momentum in October. It’s also the first sales launch in the area since Hong Kong’s Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor unveiled her plan to build a Northern Metropolis close to the southern border of mainland China, where 2.5 million people may live within 20 years.

Expectations about the Northern Metropolis have given homebuyers more options and stronger bargaining power, giving them the ability to wait for better offers, property agent said.

The first batch of flats at The Arles were priced at an average of HK$20,265 (US$2,605) per square foot, about 5 per cent cheaper than New World Development’s Pavilia Farm project at the Tai Wai station nearby.

When fully completed in March 2023, The Arles will comprise 1,335 apartments of between 228 and 947 square feet, selling for between HK$6.17 million and up to HK$23.5 million after factoring in a 15-per cent discount, as is the industry’s norm.

Thousands of new homes are scheduled for launch in Hong Kong in the remainder of the financial year ending in March 2022, with real estate agency predicting an annual increase of 14 per cent to 36,919 units.

CK Asset Holdings and Henderson Land Development, two of Hong Kong’s largest and best-known property developers, are poised to release 2,000 new homes between then in the New Territories.

CK Asset is about to kick off the marketing push for the #Lyos housing development comprising 341 units in Hung Shui Kui, which is expected to be served by a new rail link connecting Shenzhen’s burgeoning Qianhai economic zone. Henderson has a yet-to-be-named housing project in Fanling North close to the proposed On Lok Tsuen station that is awaiting presale approval.

Hong Kong’s property market has quickly recovered from the Covid-19 pandemic, as the city’s economy rebounded with help from the government’s multibillion-dollar e-voucher scheme. The city’s jobless rate fell to 4.7 per cent for the three months ending in August, the lowest level since the outbreak of Covid-19, according to the government data.

The LP10 project jointly developed by Nan Fung Group and MTR had 80 per cent of its flats sold out on the October 1 National Day.

Some buyers also bring forward home purchases before the possible increase in borrowing costs, with the monetary policy in Hong Kong in lockstep with that of the US Federal Reserve.

The city’s lived-in home prices stayed near a historical high in August after rising to a record in July. Sales of newly completed homes totalled 1,700 units in September, the best monthly performance since May, according to property agency. The real-estate agency expects sales of new homes to reach up to 2,500 this month.

觀塘「變天」打造成核心商業區 起動九龍東效應財團紛申請改劃


近年政府起動九龍東,銳意把區內打造成新一個核心商業中心;其中,觀塘工業區亦隨即起動,不少財團趁勢把旗下的工廈申請改劃作商業發展,據本報統計,連同市建局項目,區內至少有14個商業及酒店等項目,涉及逾566萬方呎商業樓面,勢令該區出現大變天,未來將搖身一變成為新一個核心商業區。

自起動九龍東政策推出後,觀塘工業區發展越見成熟,集合時尚潮流及工商業於一身的綜合地段,近年亦有不少財團紛紛把區內工廈項目改劃商業項目發展。區內最具規模的私人發展商項目、則為新地旗下興建中的巧明街98號前九巴車廠用地大型綜合項目,設有兩幢甲級寫字樓,總樓面合共65萬方呎,另有約50萬方呎商場,合共總樓面約115萬方呎。據新地年報顯示,上述項目預期於2023年落成,商場部分樓高10層,將包括潮流品牌、零售和特色食肆,預計於2024年開業,預期將會是新版APM商場。

新地巧明街可建65萬呎

其次為,由伯恩光學總裁楊建文等人持有的觀塘3幢工廈 (業發工業大廈共2期項目及年運工業大廈),新近向城規會申請合併上述項目,並放寬兩成地積比率限制發展,擬議重建為一幢樓高39層的商廈,涉及可建總樓面約72萬方呎。

據城規會文件顯示,上述項目位於開源道75至77號的業發工業大廈1期及2期,以及巧明街119至121號的年運工業大廈,鄰近觀塘鱷魚恤中心及APM等商廈。地盤面積約5萬方呎,申請放寬兩成地積比率至14.4倍發展,重建為1幢樓高39層的商業大廈,其中地庫1樓至10樓屬零售餐飲用途,樓上則屬於辦公室用途,涉及總樓面約72萬方呎。

麒豐資本早前亦申請重建旗下鴻圖道33號王氏大廈,以重建一幢31層高新式工廈;麒豐資本創辦合夥人暨投資總監洪英偉表示,觀塘區醞釀巨大變天,最矚目為新地旗下、逾百萬呎的九巴車廠重建項目,規模龐大,將成為目前開源道APM以外的新亮點,商業區由現時一個重心,變成擁有兩個重心,零售及商業內容更加豐富,將吸引更多人流。

伯恩光學建申建商廈

洪英偉指出,目前區內空置率不少 (東九龍空置逾雙位數),加上供應相當龐大,相信需一段長時間吸納,惟現時區內商廈呎租由10多元至最高30元,與核心區動輒過100元,仍然有距離,可吸引一些企業由核心區遷入。

他坦言,觀塘區目前存在缺點,工業區內經常塞車,不少街道經常受廠廈用家上落貨所阻,主要街道開源道更於上班時間內,塞車相當嚴重,相信此問題還需要多年時間才能解決,幸好區內工廈不乏單一業主,舊式廠廈有望陸續重建,屆時塞車才能得到解決。

觀塘市中心四及五期短期推

此外,觀塘工業區鄰近的由市建局發展的觀塘市中心重建計畫,當中第4及5區商業項目,未來將集合商場、寫字樓及酒店於一身,涉及可建總樓面逾209萬方呎;當中第4區將建一幢辦公室及酒店大廈,預計提供約400個房間,第5區則將建樓面逾100萬方呎商場,規模較現時區內指標商場APM的63萬方呎樓面更大;而目前該項目正進行舊樓拆卸工程,料短期內將會推出市場招標。

而最新一宗申請為本月初由財團持有的振業工廠大廈,向城規會申請放寬地積比率及建築物高度限制,以重建為一幢28層高商廈,涉及總樓面約15.9萬方呎。

據城規會文件顯示,上述項目位於勵業街5號,目前「其他指定用途」註明「商貿」,申請擬議略為放寬地積比率及建築物高度限制,以作准許的辦公室、商店及服務行業和食肆用途。

上址項目地盤面積約11053方呎,申請放寬地積比率約20%發展,由12倍增加至14.4倍,而建築物高度由主水平基準以上100米申請放寬至125.9米,即增加約25.9%,重建為一幢樓高28層 (包括1層空中花園/防火層,另有4層地庫) 的商廈,涉及可建總樓面約15.9萬方呎。

業內人士指,近年觀塘區發展步伐加快,而施政報告亦宣布工廈活化政策再延長3年,料未來區內仍有不少傳統工廈項目申請改劃並重建成發展,相信屆時亦區內交通基建配套亦會有所改善,料可吸引更多企業遷入區內。

商業項目分批落成 吸跨國企業進駐

受惠工廈活化政策,觀塘區內有不少的工廈業主申請重建為商廈發展,正逐步轉型為香港另一核心商業區,不少財團在區內發展優質商廈物業,未來勢吸引不少工商業以至跨國企業進駐,令區內的租務活動趨活躍,當中以大樓面面積或樓層相連的寫字樓需求甚殷。

明年東九龍170萬呎商廈落成

本港經濟結構轉型,對傳統工廠大廈需求量減少,而且觀塘工業區毗鄰港鐵觀塘站,出入交通便利,加上鄰近觀塘市中心,交通配套發展成熟;而且政府大力發展九龍東區,相信在政府及各持份者的配合下,未來區內交通基建、酒店、寫字樓及旅遊業等發展會更加完善。

區內設大型商場成賣點

另外,將會有助促進區內的工廈群轉型為商業發展,預料未來觀塘工業區將會大變天。

有測量師指出,受惠工廈活化政策,觀塘區內不少的工廈項目重建為商廈。預期明年東九龍有約170萬方呎的寫字樓落成,佔全港的同期新供應的四成半。

事實上整體九龍東寫字樓空置率過去五年均高於其他城區,近月更達13%,將來新增的供應需長時間消化,唯區內重建項目中,亦有多個大型商場,以作為區內商業配套及賣點,料會吸引不少企業遷入。

工廈申改劃酒店發展

另一測量師指出,觀塘與啟德發展區是九龍東發展區的一個整體,未來亦有自動步行系統連接兩區,相信未來商業發展日漸成熟,以及交通基建得以改善下,勢吸引不少金融後勤部門以至跨國企業進駐。

除商業項目外,觀塘亦有部分工廈申請改劃作酒店發展用途,以配合區內發展,其中鴻圖道28A號德信工業大廈,申請全幢改裝為酒店及康體文娛場所、藝術工作室、影音錄製室等其他用途。

項目地盤面積約5565方呎,將全幢改建作13層高酒店等用途,總樓面約60710方呎,提供89間酒店客房。據資料顯示,上址曾於2014年時獲城規會批准重建為純酒店項目,共提供160間客房。

工商鋪交投升溫 上月錄27宗大買賣 憧憬通關效應 市場氣氛改善

疫情逐步回穩,為工商鋪市場釋出正面訊息,九月份市場共錄約27宗逾億元大手物業買賣,按月急升約58%,資深投資者頻出手「掃貨」,其中,外號「台灣張」的張彥緒以7.1億向花旗銀行購入中環畢打街巨鋪,為市場矚目大刁;據業內人士指出,隨着疫情走勢平穩,市場憧憬中港兩地通關在即,市場氣氛改善,料今年第四季大手成交陸續出現。

綜合市場及土地註冊處資料顯示,今年9月工商鋪市場共錄約27宗逾億元大手成交,合共涉資約167億,較今年8月的17宗及成交金額約55億,按月分別上升約58%及2.03倍。有代理指出,受低息環境及疫情發展平穩等利好因素帶動,市場對工商鋪後市採樂觀態度,隨鋪位售價於過去兩年間大幅下滑,現時已距離低位不遠,吸引大手客入市,上月市場頻錄多宗矚目「大刁」,買家均為投資老手,買賣經驗豐富,料因憧憬中港兩地通關在即,對零售市道具刺激作用,故率先大手入市,料工商鋪大手成交於今年第4季陸續浮現。

「台灣張」7.1億購花旗巨鋪

上月市場最矚目「大刁」為花旗銀行以招標形式售出中環畢打街巨鋪,作價7.1億,該銀行早於38年前進駐,曾一度沽貨,2年後回購,是次再度沽貨,亦採取售後租回策略,買家為資深投資者「台灣張」張彥緒,料回報約2.5厘。

據土地註冊處資料顯示,中環畢打街20號會德豐大廈地下A鋪及地庫,早前以7.1億售出,買家公司名義騰倡有限公司 (SHINY PROFIT LIMITED),註冊董事為張彥緒,原業主為花旗銀行 (香港) 有限公司 (CITIBANK (HONG KONG) LIMITED),早於1982年12月以8888.2萬購入自用,並於2002年10月以1.84億售出,當時帳面賺近億元,不過,2年後,卻提價近一倍購入,於2004年12月以3.9億回購,至今持貨17年,帳面獲利3.2億,物業期間升值約82%。

持貨17年賺3.2

據業內人士指出,上址建築面積約11924方呎,以易手價計,呎價約59543元,花旗銀行自1983年起於上址開業至今,時間長達38年,該巨鋪市值月租約150萬,料回報約2.5厘,買家張彥緒,有「台灣張」之稱,是活躍於市場的資深投資者。

本德大廈鋪5.25億售

另一方面,耀才證券主席葉茂林再度出手,斥資5.25億購入銅鑼灣巨鋪,為駱克道本德大廈地下A、B、C及D鋪,連同1及2樓,建築面積約1.38萬方呎,為老牌建築商周勝記置業家族持有,原開價6億,減價易手。物業在高峰期2014年由豐澤電器承租,月租約92萬。近年隨着市況不濟,於2018年由連鎖服裝店包浩斯以每月約30萬短租。2019年9月,夾公仔店「娃娃星球」取代,月租48萬,是全港最大型的夾公仔店。

經濟活動逐漸恢復甲廈租務交投穩步上

香港作為亞洲金融樞紐,中資及外資機構向來是支持商廈租務市場的重心。新冠肺炎疫情於2020年初突然來襲,為遏止疫情擴散,多國採取封關措施,令本港商廈市場失去外來支持力,不論租、賣市況都持續沉寂。經歷逾一年半調整期,寫字樓租金下滑,疫苗面世亦有助控制疫情、推動有限度通關,香港與內地及外國經濟活動得以逐漸恢復,為商廈市場帶來正面幫助,近期寫字樓租賃情況開始起動,更不乏大樓面承租個案。

根據代理行統計,寫字樓租賃市場交投量對比2019下半年逐步回升。政治運動而引起動亂,對商廈市場於2019年第四季浮現,全季僅錄約1038宗寫字樓租務成交,而2020年仍處於低位,按季計算,最高記錄亦只是於第三季錄約1471宗個案,可見寫字樓租務需求一直未見明顯改善。至2021年第二季受惠於疫苗接種逐漸普及化、市場開始採取「與病毒共存」方式,經濟活動慢慢復甦,刺激商廈租賃需求,由2021年第二季約1784宗,攀升至第三季約1827宗,預計第4季租賃交投量可維持平穩上揚趨勢。

甲廈大樓面頻錄承租

商廈市場指標要看中環,去年經濟環境打擊沉重,紛紛傳出企業退租核心區指標商廈個案,不過事隔一年,不少樓面已逐漸被消化,尤其中區更接連錄得超甲廈大樓面租務成交,充分證明商廈市場轉勢,氣氛向好。指標中的指標、坐落於海濱地帶的超甲廈國際金融中心租金下調,獲企業青睞進駐提升品牌形象及辦公室質素。國際金融中心一期兩層全層樓面及部分單位獲承接,涉及總面積約5.3萬方呎,市傳成交呎租約130元。消息稱,新租客為中資金融機構中金公司,原本已租用國際金融中心一期約7萬方呎樓面,是次有意擴充業務,剛好遇上大廈有租客退租,業主將部分樓面整合,因此看準機會一併租用。

國際金融中心下調租金即租出

同區另一甲廈都錄大樓面租務個案,為中環交易廣場三座14樓全層,面積約10150方呎,消息稱,新租客為金融科技公司HashKey Group,料成交呎租約120元。資料指,該集團原租用數碼港面積較細的寫字樓,今次進駐中環甲廈全層屬擴充業務同時提高辦公室級數。

除了港島商業區之外,第二核心區東九龍租務需求都見上升趨勢,尤其以觀塘成交最為暢旺。有市場消息指,運動品牌Nike租用觀塘國際貿易中心ITT 12樓全層以及15樓部分樓面,涉及面積共約5.2萬方呎,料成交呎租約32元。據了解,Nike辦公室原設於九龍灣國際交易中心,是次轉租觀塘新商廈,寫字樓地點及質素都更有優勢。另外,消息稱,同區的老牌商廈創紀之城一期全層獲華潤承租作擴充用途,單位面積約2.1萬方呎,料成交呎租約25元。

核心區優質商廈租務需求遞增,從上述個案觀察,不少更屬於業務擴充,反映企業對香港營商及寫字樓前景樂觀,積極計劃擴展,同時乘租金調整於核心區甲廈設立據點。過去兩年受新冠疫情困擾,中資及外資機構來港步伐受阻,現時隨着疫苗接種情況理想,通關措施逐步開放,不少中、資外企業已蠢蠢欲動,預計通關慢慢放寬後,企業將爭相來港物色寫字樓,租賃情況轉好,連帶為買賣市場帶來利好因素,本港商廈市場步入轉勢階段。

華邦科技承接

代理表示,銅鑼灣駱克道487至489號駱克駅26樓全層,面積約1267方呎,成交月租約5.1萬,平均呎租約40元 。

羅素街「樓上鋪」每呎60元租出 交吉長達一年半 PRADA舊址拆細

疫市下,食肆積極擴充,進駐核心區,國際知名時尚品牌PRADA於銅鑼灣羅素街巨鋪舊址,於交吉約一年半後,以分拆形式招租,物業2樓樓面隨即由西餐廳進駐,月租30萬,呎租約60元。

市場消息指出,銅鑼灣羅素街2至4號 Plaza 2000 2樓,面積約5042方呎,以約30萬租出,平均呎租約59.5元,舊租客為PRADA旗艦店,當時合共租用地下、1樓及2樓,總樓面約1.5萬方呎,每月租金高達900萬,平均呎租約600元。

業主:斥逾3000萬裝修

「玩具大王」女兒蔡加怡接受本報查詢時證實,上述鋪位以每月約30萬租出,面積約5000方呎,租客為西餐廳,簽下梗約及生約各3年。她表示,近期集團投入逾3000萬,為此4層高的巨鋪裝修,打造得煥然一新,再推出招租,地鋪面積約9000方呎,視乎租客類別,可拆細,地鋪另有1個面積只有150方呎的小食店位,意向月租10萬。還有,該物業1樓意向月租約50萬,3樓意向月租35萬。

據地產代理指出,雖然以呎租計,上址最新租金明顯大「縮水」,惟是次租出的只是2樓樓面,並不涉及地鋪位置,若以現今同區樓上鋪租金計,上述租金亦屬合理水平。

高峰期呎租600

資料顯示,上址早前身為PRADA於本港面積最大的旗艦店,惟受疫情影響,內地客近絕迹,PRADA於去年初決定結束7年租約,提早結業離場,早前市場消息亦盛傳該巨鋪業主旭日國際以500萬放租,較舊租金900萬下跌約44%,甚至會將該巨鋪以分拆形式出租。

代理指出,上址早前由國際知名時尚品牌以承租地下至2樓並連及廣告外牆,當時租金可算是「天價」水平,惟受疫情冼禮,令內地客接近絕迹,單靠民生消費難以支撐昔日核心區奢侈品租金,業主亦因應市況「變陣」,將物業分拆出租,是次租出的僅為2樓部分,事實上已屬「樓上鋪」,最新租金略高於同區寫字樓,屬合理水平。

昔日曾為全球最昂貴租金的羅素街,受疫情等因素衝擊,租金暴跌,據一外資代理行報告指出,該街道平均呎租按年急跌約43%,亦被尖沙嘴廣東道取代為亞太區最貴主要商業街道。

另一方面,鋪位市場亦頻錄承租個案,有代理指出,荃灣兆和街6至22號和盛樓地鋪,地鋪面積約1035方呎,於交吉半年後,獲食肆以約16萬承租,呎租約154.5元,較舊租金15萬上升約7%。

旺角亞皆老街7至13號啟運大廈地下單號鋪,約800方呎,以約12萬租出,呎租約150元,該鋪早前由藥房以11.8萬租用,租金升約1.7%。

據大型代理行資料顯示,該街道近期鋪位成交為盛芳街23至39號地鋪,於今年5月以6300萬售出,呎價約6.3萬;另一買賣為該街道38至44號地下01室,面積400方呎,於2018年3月以1230萬售出,呎價約30750元。

此外,市區亦有優質物業放售,代理指出,灣仔駱克道88號地下A號鋪,面積790方呎,以意向價5600萬放售,呎價7.08萬,該鋪現時由酒吧以12.5萬承租,料買家享租金回報約2.68厘。

駱克道鋪5600萬放售

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2000年以1010萬購入,以公司名義GRAFTON INVESTMENT LIMITED持有,註冊董事為陳姓及盧姓人士,若物業最終以上述意向價售出,原業主持貨21年帳面獲利4590萬,物業期間升值約4.54倍。

資料顯示,該街道近期頻錄大手成交,其中,該街道478至484號地下至二樓,早前以5.25億售出,呎價約7.5萬;另一成交為駱克道272至274號地下A2室,面積500方呎,於今年3月以4150萬售出,呎價約8.3萬。

灣仔嘉洛商業大廈 位置佳交通便

灣仔乙廈多,位於駱克道的嘉洛商業大廈鄰近港鐵站C出口,相當方便。

灣仔乙廈集中地,區內不少乙廈外形上較陳舊,距離港鐵站一段距離。嘉洛商業大廈位於駱克道116號,由灣仔港鐵站C出口步行至該廈僅2分鐘,位置佔優。值得一提,日後沙中綫通車,會展站通車後,灣仔區商廈將更為方便。

定位乙廈 每層約2000

另外,大廈的軒尼詩道、告士打道巴士路綫多,上班人士可從天橋前往入境處門口巴士站,坐巴士前往九龍或港島東。飲食配套上,駱克道一帶亦有不少餐廳及酒吧,上班人士可前往利東街商場,選擇較多。

大廈定位為乙級商廈,每層面積約2,000餘平方呎,但間隔上樓面較闊,外觀上絕不細小。大廈設有兩部升降機,分別通往單數及雙數樓層。地下大堂早年略為翻新,面積不大但仍企理,比起同區不少乙廈優勝。

10樓820 上月790萬成交

大廈每層面積約2,100餘平方呎,原則分為A、B及C單位,A單位靠向柯布連道,而C單位靠向盧押道,而A及C單位均為820平方呎,B單位495平方呎,景觀方面,大廈主要望向駱克道樓景,質素接近,而C單位望向修頓球場及合和中心一帶樓景,開揚舒適。

近期,大廈在9月中錄得相關買賣成交,該單位為10樓C室,面積約820平方呎,以約790萬元成交,呎價約9,634元。租務方面,分別在8月及9月錄得2宗成交,前者的成交為20樓C室,面積約820平方呎,成交呎租26.2元,後者,該單位為5樓A室,面積約820平方呎,成交呎租22元。

Property market hit again as sales slump

Home sales by value in China tumbled 16.9 percent in September from a year earlier, following a 19.7 percent drop in August, National Bureau of Statistics data released yesterday showed.

Real-estate investment slid for the first time since the onset of the coronavirus shut swathes of the economy at the start of last year, down 3.5 percent from a year earlier, calculations show.

Meanwhile, September new construction starts slumped for a sixth straight month, the longest spate of monthly declines since 2015, as cash-strapped developers put a pause on projects in the wake of tighter regulations on borrowing. New construction starts fell 13.54 percent from a year earlier, the third month of double-digit declines, based on January-September data released by the National Bureau of Statistics.

That marks the longest downtrend since declines in March-August 2015, the last property malaise.

Chinese property shares fell yesterday as Beijing pushed ahead with plans for a property tax and amid fresh signs of weakening in the real-estate market.

But the coupon payment for a dollar bond by Chinese developer Kaisa Group (1638) and the central bank's efforts to calm nerves over the debt woes of China Evergrande Group (3333) helped in part to offset the overall bearish mood in the property sector.

Kaisa Group said it has paid US$39.4 million (HK$306.47 million) worth of coupon for a dollar bond due on October 16.

The company also said it plans to transfer funds for coupon worth US$35.85 million due on October 22 into bondholders' accounts on Thursday.

Hong Kong’s property mania inflates prices of even the tiniest flats, putting affordability beyond reach for most first-time buyers

The price of new flats smaller than 200 square feet rose to HK$25,512 per square foot in the first nine months, according to property agency’s data

That made the smallest flats more costly than the typical Hong Kong abode, cheaper only than luxury homes bigger than 1,000 sq ft

A real estate bull market in Hong Kong, the world’s most expensive major city for 10 consecutive years until 2019, has trickled over to inflate the prices of even the smallest habitable homes.

The average cost of new micro-apartments, or flats smaller than 200 square feet (18.6 square metres), rose to HK$25,512 per square foot in the first nine months of 2021, according to property agency’s data. That made the smallest homes more expensive than the HK$21,680 per sq ft average price of the typical Hong Kong flat of between 400 and 600 sq ft, and only cheaper than the HK$30,460 average price of luxury apartments bigger than 1,000 sq ft.

The bar chart of home prices of various sizes looks like a U shape with extended bars on both ends, because “Hongkongers with limited budgets can only [opt] for smaller lump sum payments,” which explains why the smallest flats sell out first, property agent said. “No one wants to live in tiny flats” if they had a better choice, the agent said.

The dismal state of housing underscores the challenges confronting Hong Kong’s policymakers as they grapple with ways to make housing more affordable, especially for young families, school leavers and other people struggling to get on the first rungs of the property ladder.

The average price of micro-apartments jumped 23 per cent last year from 2019, before retreating by 1.7 per cent in the first nine months of 2021, The agency’s data showed. That gave the typical 200 sq ft Hong Kong nano flat a price tag of HK$5.1 million (US$655,000), about the same as a 544 sq ft studio in southeast London, according to another property agency.

Henderson Land Development, founded and run by the family of Hong Kong’s second-wealthiest tycoon, built one of every two micro-apartments sold in Hong Kong in the first nine months, or 115 out of 230 of these homes, according to Dataelements, which tracks sales in the primary residential market. Some of its projects, such as the Cetus Square Mile project in Tai Kok Tsui, were popular, helping the developer sell five of the tiny flats for a nine-month record price of HK$31,200 per sq ft.

Hong Kong’s government plans to stop developers from building more micro-apartments, after the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office director Xia Baolong asked local authorities to address the city’s chronic housing issues and get rid of cramped living space by 2049.

Cramped space was a “pain point for society,” Hong Kong’s Secretary for Development Michael Wong Wai-lun acknowledged on October 8. While Wong did not specify the minimum size of what acceptable housing should be, he took note of suggestions that start at 200 or 210 sq ft.

Local authorities would need to increase the plot ratio of every plot of government land released for sale to turn into housing, for living space to increase. The city’s tiniest new home measured 123 sq ft in 2018, while the city’s poorest residents had 50 sq ft per person in average living space, according to a non-government organisation.

“The government can impose the minimum size of flats to be built on land sale document to Hong Kong government to ensure the improvement of living standard,” said Leo Cheung, adjunct associate professor at the University of Hong Kong’s real estate and construction department.

Some projects are headed in the right direction. CK Asset Holdings’ HK$4.95 billion winning bid in May 2020 for a plot of land in Kwun Tung’s Anderson Road area came with the condition for the developer to build at least 1,000 homes, measuring no smaller than 250 sq ft, according to the land-sale document.

寫字樓租金調整放緩 按季微跌0.3%


有外資代理行昨日發布2021年第三季度的報告。報告資料顯示,寫字樓市場的租金調整放緩,整體租金按季微跌0.3%,而第二季度的按季跌幅則為1.6%。有些市場甚至開始出現反彈,中環/金鐘租金按季微升0.3%,這是自2019年第二季度以來首季錄得正數。

此外,受來自香港島的共享辦公室營運商及用戶需求帶動,加上九龍區內搬遷需要,尖沙咀亦錄得按季1.4%的租金反彈。

淨吸納量反彈至7.1萬呎

該行代理表示,隨着商業活動陸續恢復,寫字樓租賃需求在2021年第三季度續見復甦。整體淨吸納量反彈至約7.1萬平方呎,是自2019年第三季度以來,首次錄得正數的季度,而整體空置率則為10.4%。另外,市場對核心商業區的需求亦有回升,中環空置率連續兩季下跌,由本年第一季度的7.6%,下跌至第三季度的7.2%。

至於投資市場的前景,該代理補充,鑑於經濟好轉,料會增加投資者對各個物業類別的信心,並預計投資活動將在本年底前進一步增加,尤其是某些房地產基金,因相關基金需要在年底前按投資指示部署資本。

該行亦預料,隨着「跨境理財通」計劃及「來港易」計劃已於9月推出,應會進一步推動長遠租賃需求,並為跨境商務旅遊鋪路。

嘉里3.5億 沽西營盤縉城峰基座舖

每月租金收入逾70萬 回報約2.4厘

民生區商舖回報較穩健,消息指,嘉里 (00683) 以約3.5億元,沽出西營盤縉城峰基座商舖,由本地投資者承接,回報率約2.4厘。

消息指,西營盤第一街8號縉城峰基座易手,涉及物業地下至2樓,以及6個車位,總面積約15,891平方呎,涉及10個舖位。由於附近均為住宅區,商舖全為民生商舖,地下租客包括麵包店、餐廳、美容及教學中心等,而2樓由超市等租用,僅一舖位交吉待租。據悉,項目每月租金收入約70.4萬元,由本地投資者以3.5億元承接,呎價約2.2萬元,回報率約2.4厘。

銅鑼灣怡東商場舖 餐飲50萬租

項目由嘉里持有,為縉城峰的發展商,2009年項目落成,而發展商一直持有基座作收租。事實上,嘉里近兩年先後推售非核心物業,特別住宅新盤基座部分,去年先後售出土瓜灣港圖灣、荃灣縉庭山商舖套現。

另消息指,西營盤第二街141至149號地下C6號舖,面積約1,203平方呎,以約1,330萬元成交,舖位每月租金收入約3.2萬元,回報率近2.9厘。據悉,原業主於2012年以2,005萬元購入,持貨9年轉手,蝕675萬離場,蝕幅達34%。

此外,核心區餐飲租舖個案上升,消息指,銅鑼灣東角道26號怡東商場地下連1樓,面積逾6,000平方呎,獲餐飲以每月50萬元租用,為區內近期較大手餐飲租舖個案。該舖早年曾由百老滙電器租用,高峰期月租高見220萬元,現租金較高峰期跌近8成。

北部都會區概念 帶動天水圍商住發展

本月初公布的最新一份《施政報告》提出「北部都會區」願景,當中提及將在洪水橋/厦村新發展區興建港深西部鐵路連接前海,料可帶動比鄰天水圍的商業及住宅發展。

根據最新一份《施政報告》提及的「北部都會區」概念,佔地約3萬公頃,預計將成為香港未來20年城市建設及人口增長最活躍的地區;而政府亦會落實於洪水橋/厦村新發展區興建港深西部鐵路,以連接前海,故長遠而言,比鄰的天水圍商業將會受惠。

橋頭圍項目補地價逾19

天水圍原為大片魚塘,繼政府早90年代將該區發展為新市鎮後,吸引不少發展商進駐發展住宅,故現時區內以住宅社區為主。不過,目前該區合共有3個商業及商住項目,共可提供約147萬平方呎商業樓面。

有發展商早前憧憬洪水橋將建成為新發展區,增加居住人口,從而帶動區內的商業需求。當中較矚目為新地 (00016) 持有的天水圍橋頭圍項目,地皮位於洪天路與屏廈路交界,鄰近西鐵天水圍站,擬建成1幢31層高的商廈。上述地皮佔地約10.71萬平方呎,總樓面面積約85.65萬平方呎,其中零售商場樓面佔約50.05萬平方呎,辦公室則佔約35.59萬平方呎的樓面,落成後有機會變成「天水圍版」的觀塘創紀之城5期apm項目。

值得一提的是,新地就以約19.74億元為上述項目補地價,料為新界區最大宗農地轉商業發展的補地價個案。事實上,上述地皮屬於「未決定用途」發展地帶,新地原計劃將地皮發展為住宅,其後於2016年向城規會改作辦公室、商店及服務行業、食肆等綜合商業用途。

酒店重建 增51萬呎商業樓面

同時,在疫情影響下,不少發展商變陣,就旗下酒店申請重建,其中由長實 (01113) 持有的天水圍嘉湖海逸酒店,去年亦獲城規會批准在有附帶條件下重建為兩幢樓高53層高分層的大型住宅項目,總樓面涉逾200萬平方呎,提供約5,000個單位。屋苑基座1至3層亦會提供大型商場,商業面積約51.6萬平方呎,料成為區內最大型商場之一。

另外,億京持有的橋頭圍1幢混凝土廠的地盤及比鄰的橋旺街13號,預計兩地盤亦有潛力一併重建。

(經濟日報)

 

投資者伺機沽貨 帶動商舖成交

天水圍區以住宅發展為主,人流密集,同時帶動零售需求,而區內有部分商場近期的成交轉旺,而屬指標屋苑嘉湖山莊旁邊的商場,新北江商場本年至今累積錄得約40宗成交,較去年同期的13宗,大幅升值逾2倍,可見區內的商舖市場交投氣氛好轉。

俊宏軒舖 接連大額交易

於本年年初,有投資者趁機拆售天水圍新天地廣場 (新北江商場) 的地下10間舖位,所有舖位屬中細銀碼成交,其面積介乎119至378平方呎。另外,位於天水圍天瑞路88號俊宏軒於年初接連錄大額成交,當中L19及L20地舖,面積約710平方呎,年初亦以約5,500萬元成交,平均呎價約7.7萬元。同時,位於1樓101至102號舖,面積約9,296平方呎,年初亦以1.05億元沽出,呎價約1.1萬元。

據悉,原業主為佳寶食品超級市場老闆林曉毅,他以公司名義於2013年以9,200萬元向宏安買入上址,持貨8年沽貨,帳面獲利約1,300萬元,舖位升值約14%。而新登記買家為樓上燕窩莊的董事。

老牌建築商周勝記置業家族接連沽貨,繼早前沽售銅鑼灣波斯富街巨鋪,最新沽出大角嘴的周勝記商業大廈,作價1.53億,較放盤叫價減價逾20%。該家族於短短1個月套現6.8億。買家為投資者吳天偉。

Goodbye luxury stores, hello restaurants - Hong Kong streets transformed during Covid

Luxury retail chains are losing their once-iron grip on Hong Kong’s shopping streets, as Covid-19 keeps visitors away and forces the city to shift toward restaurants and bars catering to residents.

Across the Asian financial hub, one in five shops targeting mainly Chinese tourists and selling jewellery, medicine, cosmetics, clothing and leather goods has closed since the third quarter of 2018 -- before pro-democracy protests and the pandemic dealt blows to the city’s economy -- according to data from the research arm of a real estate agency.

The number of restaurants and food grocery outlets, by comparison, has grown 9 percent during the same period.

The trend is being felt in some of the most bustling shopping districts. At Sai Yeung Choi Street South in Kowloon, once a hotspot for mainland tourists, six new restaurants and bars have opened during the period while 12 cosmetics and personal care shops have shut down. Percival Street in central Hong Kong has seen five watch and jewellery shops shut since the third quarter of 2018, and added one food and drink business.

The shift has been a rapid one, given the typical life of a city. The protests -- portrayed in Beijing-backed media as violent and targeting mainlanders -- led to the disappearance of Hong Kong’s biggest source of tourists almost overnight. The city’s zero-tolerance approach to the virus, which includes quarantines of up to 21 days, has meant they’ve still not returned.

While the government is trying to ease border curbs with the mainland, the lack of a plan to reopen more broadly means Hong Kong risks falling behind other financial and shopping capitals, from Singapore to London.

In some ways, the pivot toward retail that caters to the city’s 7.4 million residents -- from long-time locals hunting dim sum to cashed-up expats on a night out -- marks a correction. The mainland’s growing footprint on Hong Kong, driving more stores catering to tourists than residents’ needs, was one frustration fuelling the protests in 2019.

“There’s been a big rebalancing toward local spending,” Jonathan Zeman, Chief Executive Officer of Lan Kwai Fong Group, a major landlord in Hong Kong’s nightclub district, told Bloomberg TV in an interview. “People who normally would fly around to Tokyo, Bangkok, Paris, they can’t do that now so they’re happy to find ways to spend locally.”

Ever since Covid-related restrictions on eateries started to ease in February, the food and drinks business has been bouncing back, driven by strong local demand, he said. Lan Kwai Fong’s overall occupancy rate has climbed back up to 98 percent and its catering businesses have returned to 2018 levels, Zeman added.

Before the pandemic, outlets of Luk Fook Holdings International Ltd., one of Hong Kong’s major jewellery chains, relied on mainland tourists for 60 percent of their business. Now, Luk Fook is one of the premium retail brands rolling out perks and upgrading services in an intensifying competition for what is a smaller group of local shoppers.

Luk Fook is partnering with a local e-commerce platform and setting up its own online shopping website, said Chief Financial Officer Kathy Chan. It’s cut some stores in major tourist districts and added new ones in local residential areas. And it’s rolling out lucky draws and vouchers to lure in customers, pegged to its 30th anniversary.

Signs for rival Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group Ltd. compete with Luk Fook’s on shopping thoroughfares across the city, and its Hong Kong operation once counted on tourists for half of its sales pre-pandemic. Now it’s joined Luk Fook in the battle to draw Hong Kongers through the door.

The company -- whose retail revenue in Hong Kong and Macau has plunged 60 percent in the two fiscal years since March 2019 -- has added Instagram spots at its stores to appeal to younger customers, said Executive Director Peter Suen. It’s also targeting quicker delivery.

A government initiative to hand out HK$5,000 (US$642) worth of spending vouchers to eligible residents to support local businesses amid Covid will last through mid-2022. It has also prompted a number of companies to compete for customers flush with extra cash, Suen said.
Hong Kong retail sales surged 12 percent in August to HK$28.6 billion, the biggest gain since April, fuelled by the vouchers. Retail sales recovered to 71 percent of 2018 levels in the first eight months of this year, government data shows.

The shift could last even after borders reopen and travel resumes, with mainland tourism likely still hindered by political concerns and challenges from e-commerce, said Emily Leung, a senior analyst at Euromonitor International in Hong Kong.

Some Chinese tourists who would previously come to Hong Kong to shop, particularly for luxury goods, might have already discovered online channels for those products during the pandemic, she said.

“In the coming three to four years, the share of local spending in Hong Kong’s retail industry will continue to be higher than before,” Leung said. “Tourist spending will recover, but it would be quite difficult for it to return to the 2018 levels after the past two years.” -- Bloomberg

Yuen Long plot offered 3,565-flat upgrade

The Town Planning Board has received an application to turn a plot of land in Tung Shing Lei in Nam Sang Wai, Yuen Long into a comprehensive development area that could offer 3,565 flats upon completion.

The lot was applied for development at a plot ratio of approximately 3.182 times in 2019, but the application was later withdrawn. It was expected to provide 3,848 units with a total floor area of approximately 1.84 million square feet before the withdrawal.

Meanwhile, many new projects are ready for action.

Wheelock Properties' Koko Hills in Lam Tin will launch sales on Saturday, providing 101 units, including 87 units in the form of price lists and 14 flats via tenders.

Centralcon Properties' The Arles in Fo Tan has revealed its fourth price list, offering 134 units with an average price of HK$19,662 per sq ft after discounts.

Kowloon Development (0034) said it will upload the sales brochure and open the showrooms of Manor Hill in Tseung Kwan O as soon as this week.

Wing Tai Properties' (0369) Oma Oma in Tuen Mun will launch the remaining 50 units this week at the earliest.

Swire Properties (1972) will put up nine detached houses for sale with areas ranging from approximately 1,500 sq ft to 1,700 sq ft - each featuring three bedrooms and a 3,700 sq ft to 5,700 sq ft garden.

CK Asset's (1113) #Lyos in Yuen Long's Hung Shui Kiu - the first residential project in Hung Shui Kiu after the government announced the Northern Metropolis Development Strategy - will also post the sales brochure this week.

Sino Land (0083) expects to launch four brand new residential projects from the end of this year to next year, involving a total of about 5,000 units.

中環中心每呎75元承租


甲廈租賃交投不俗,消息指,由「小巴大王」馬亞木持有的中環中心高層單位,於交吉約1年半後,以每方呎約75元租出,屬市價水平。

「小巴大王」馬亞木持有

市場消息指出,由「小巴大王」馬亞木持有的中環中心高層08室,面積2054方呎,呎租約75元,月租約154050元;據代理指出,上址於去年2月交吉至今,舊租金每方呎約85元,故上址於交吉近1年半後,租金下跌約12%。

資料顯示,馬亞木於今年7月以6.93億沽出該甲廈26樓全層,以面積2.5萬方呎計,呎價約27720元,買家為紀惠集團。

另一方面,據代理發表的報告指出,今年9月整體甲廈空置率上升至10.3%,較8月的10.1%,按月上升約2%,並創歷來新高水平。

若以各區劃分,東九龍為「重災區」,空置率高見15.3%,中環及金鐘區空置率分別新報8.4%及9.5%,灣仔及銅鑼灣雖然按月輕微回落,但亦錄得10.6%空置率,而上環上升至9.2%。代理稱,現今市場需求疲弱,加上明年起為市場供應高峰期,料空置率短期內難以改善。

董建華家族買中環中心兩層涉13億 每呎2.5萬起創拆售後新低

新冠肺炎疫情緩和,樓市再度升溫,過去甚少沾手地產買賣的全國政協副主席、前特首董建華及其家族成員,在今年6至8月的短短3個月內連環大舉入市,買入住宅單位、住宅地皮及商廈單位,涉資共逾17億元。董建華家族除購入租住多年的中半山豪宅嘉慧園低層單位,以及入股粉嶺住宅地皮外,本報更發現該家族大手斥資近13億元,連環掃入中環皇后大道中99號中環中心兩層。

賣家為馬亞木陳秉志

中環中心在6至7月期間連錄3宗全層成交,包括20樓、25樓及26樓全層,當時已經有傳20樓的買家為董建華家族成員。有關買家身份終於曝光,根據公司註冊處資料顯示,持有中環中心20樓的公司為THE CENTER (20) LIMITED,該公司董事原為「小巴大王」馬亞木及其子馬僑生等人,但最新已由董立新及姚爾欣代替,意味業權已易手。董立新為董建華幼子,姚爾欣曾於董氏家族持有東方海外 (00316) 期間在該集團多個部門工作多年。

據資料顯示,中環中心20樓全層,建築面積約24593方呎,在6月底以轉讓公司股權形式以約6.15億元售出,呎價約2.5萬元,創財團入主該廈後拆售呎價新低。

至於原由資深投資者「磁帶大王」陳秉志持有的25樓全層,建築面積約24980方呎,在今年7月由TOPWORLD UNION ENTERPRISE LIMITED以約6.74億元購入,呎價約2.7萬元。

25樓傳作團結基金辦公室

據公司註冊處資料,TOPWORLD UNION ENTERPRISE LIMITED為一家在英屬維爾京群島 (British Virgin Islands, BVI) 註冊的公司,公司董事共有3人,包括董建華長女董立筠、長子董立均及董立新。

長實 (01113) 在2017年底以天價402億元售出中環中心75%權益,買家是由馬亞木、陳秉志等組成的財團,當年購入47層寫字樓、商業樓面及402個車位,涉及總樓面約122.27萬方呎,平均呎價約32877元。董建華家族連購的20樓及25樓,成交價共12.89億元,而兩層單位呎價俱低過財團當年的平均購入價。

據代理透露,上述兩層俱未有推出市場放租或放賣,目前20樓有租約,25樓則交吉。消息人士指出,25樓將會保留自用,據悉會由董建華創立的團結香港基金使用作為辦公室。

3個月花17億掃4項物業

董建華家族突然活躍於本港地產市場,今年8月上旬,董建華3名子女成立公司,向永泰地產 (00369) 購入粉嶺粉錦公路與青山公路-古洞段交界住宅地皮10%股權,作價約2.62億元。董建華則在8月中,以首置身份購入租用多年的中半山老牌豪宅嘉慧園低層C單位連1個車位,成交價1.6億元。連同兩層中環中心商廈單位,已動用約17.11億元購入4項地產項目。

另一邊廂,由全國政協常委、前政務司司長唐英年擔任會長的香港江蘇社團總會,旗下江蘇總會投資有限公司以約1938.15萬元沽出上環干諾道中133號誠信大廈9樓E至F室,建築面積1475方呎,呎價約13140元。單位於2015年12月以1780萬元購入,賬面獲利158.15萬元(8.9%)。

中環寫字樓租金連升兩月

有代理發表報告指出,9月中環寫字樓租金按月增長0.6%,至每方呎90.3元,錄得連續兩個月升幅,並重返90元以上水平,可見市場逐漸呈現復甦跡象。是次增長主要由市場物色更優質的寫字樓空間所帶動。

9月整體市場租金按月下跌0.1%,平均月租為每方呎55.7元,其他主要分區市場中以港島東錄得相對較大的租金跌幅。

截至9月底,中環區甲級寫字樓空置率升至7.8%;然而,區内的退租樓面面積在月內有所減少,反映企業縮減規模的趨勢放緩。9月整體甲級寫字樓市場錄得18.01萬方呎的負吸納量。

代理表示,由於租戶重新調整其地產計劃,並物色更優質的辦公空間,因此,寫字樓市場的租賃活動主要涉及搬遷和辦公室整合。

工廈物業方面,另一代理指出,8月的商品貿易環境進一步復甦,繼續支持工業產業。貿易總額按年穩定增長27%,當中進口貿易和出口貿易分別上升28.1%和25.9%。租賃市場的成交和查詢量增加,尤以本地雜貨及快速消費品行業的租戶最活躍。

甲廈空置率10.3%新高 東九達15%

甲廈新租務較少,空置率偏高,有代理行統計,指標甲廈空置率10.3%,創紀錄新高。

首9月租金 僅累升2.1%

該代理行發表的報告指出,受制於寫字樓空置率仍然高企,今年首九個月整體甲廈售價累積升幅僅約1.8%,表現近乎持平,而今年首九個月整體甲廈租金累積升幅亦僅約2.1%。

商廈空置率繼續上升,整體甲廈空置率上升至10.3%,屬紀錄新高水平,其中,東九龍高見15.3%,灣仔及銅鑼灣雖然按月輕微回落,但亦錄得10.6%空置率,而上環也上升至9.2%。

由於物流公司DHL遷出企業廣場五期,其公司原租用企業廣場五期多層單位,其總樓面面積佔約十萬平方呎,推高東九龍指標甲廈空置率上升至15.3%,連帶全港整體空置率上升至10.3%,屬紀錄新高水平。

售價方面,上月整體甲廈售價按月微升0.1%,表現持平,當中以尖沙咀區表現最好,按月上升4.8%,而上環表現較為落後,按月下跌1.2%。

市建局庇利街項目 僅恒地出價每呎逾萬

恒地 (00012) 早前以近82億元奪得土瓜灣庇利街/榮光街項目,中標價貼近市場估值下限,但原來據市建局公布,恒地出價已經較第二標價高出10億元或15%,普遍發展商出價均低於每呎1萬元。反映發展商對項目前景看法迥異。

「小區模式」招標 獲6標書

庇利街/榮光街項目屬於首個市建局「小區模式」招標的項目,接獲6份標書,據市建局公布所有入標價情況,發展商出價介乎51.2億至81.89億元,以可建樓面71.7萬平方呎計算,每呎樓面地價介乎7,136至11,414元,最高跟最低價之間相差6成。

當中恒地的中標價81.89億元,每呎樓面地價11,414元,相較次高標價71.16億元,每呎樓面地價9,918元,高出15%或10億元,而入標價中位數則位於大約68.2億元左右水平。

同時,除了中標的恒地之外,其餘5間發展商入標呎價均低於1萬元,亦即是低市場估值下限的1.1萬元,似乎整體市場出價均傾向保守。

事實上,市建局行政總監韋志成曾以《庇利街項目中標價具競爭力》撰文,提及按照合作發展協議條款,日後項目商業部分的營運,市建局將擁有3成權益,而其所佔的預計總收益連同項目的中標金額,總估值超過90億元,即樓面呎價達1.2萬元,屬於市場估值範圍的中位數。

庇利街項目地盤面積近8萬平方呎,可建樓面約71.74萬平方呎,包括近60萬平方呎的住宅樓面,料涉及1,150伙,另有約11.9萬平方呎的商業樓面。

前港台地皮明截標 估值達15.7億

廣播道罕有豪宅地 料吸中小發展商

位於九龍塘廣播道79號,前港台教育電視大樓地皮或將變豪宅,地皮將於明日截標,市場估值最高15.7億元,樓面地價達2.2萬元,由於市區豪宅地皮罕有,而且規模較小,料主要吸引中小型發展商競投。

規模小有噪音 未達超豪宅要求

有代理認為,地皮未必合適發展超豪宅項目,原因是地皮質素未達到超豪宅要求水平,例如地皮規模較小,未必可以配置到豪華的會所設施,加上沒有優秀的開揚景觀,而且會受噪音影響,如發展做超豪宅項目未必太樂觀,反而適合發展面積介乎800平方呎至1,200平方呎的中型分層住宅單位。

該代理認為,地皮規模雖小,但同區豪宅地皮罕有,是當區最後兩幅住宅官地之一,料會吸引到不少中小型發展商參與投標,或會掀起「地皮爭奪戰」。

代理估計,地皮成交估值大約為12億,而樓面呎價每呎約1.7萬元,同區對上一幅推出的官地是2006年,由信和置業以創新高成交價投得的廣播道1號地皮,當時每呎樓面地價為9,868元,創下當年九龍塘區官地呎價新高。

估成交呎價 難超2萬創新高

該代理認為,是次成交呎價未必會創新高,有鑑於之前龍翔道有地皮成交呎價約2.85萬元,而綜觀廣播道79號地皮規模、環境及噪音問題,成交價就未必會超越2萬元。

九龍塘廣播道79號項目,面積約2.3萬平方呎,可建樓面面積約7.1萬平方呎,綜合市場資訊,地皮估值介乎10.7億至15.7億元,每呎樓面地價大約1.5萬元至2.2萬元。

觀塘新式工廈The Whitney 每呎叫租16元起

近年政府推出多項活化工廈政策,令工廈用途變得更為多元化,部份轉為配套、質素可媲美商廈的新式工廈發展,當中部份租金較傳統寫字樓為吸引,令新式工廈深受市場歡迎,而位處觀塘偉業街的The Whitney,更集外觀簇新、配套齊為其賣點,現以每平方呎約16元起招租。

罕有升高地台 配套媲美甲廈

有代理指,由德士活集團持有及發展的觀塘偉業街183號工廈項目,新近正式落成,並已命名為The Whitney,設廈發展為新式工業大廈,大廈設計概念參考紐約工業風,配以多項綠化元素;大部份單位設私人平台,落地玻璃窗,單位內更設有獨立洗手間及24小時冷氣供應等;另外單位更設有升高地台,此類裝備一般只在於新建甲級商廈有供應,在工廈物業上提供實屬極為罕有。

單位面積由2548呎起

至於以上配套均為針對各類型創意產業、創新科技科研、媒體創作等企業進駐而設,充分展現發展商對項目的用心程度。而The Whitney現推出精選單位招租,提供不同面積樓面以供選擇,由約2,548平方呎至全層約11,953平方呎不等,每平方呎租金叫價由16元起,可滿足各類型租戶所需。

中高層以每呎近20元承租

該代理指,The Whitney的招租進展理想,短時間內已獲租客承租多層,其中有3層中高層單位,已租予區內一間從事資訊科技的公司,據悉,該公司見The Whitney獨特的建築設計、用料質素及配套,屬市場罕見,決定以每平方近20元大手承租上址作其公司總部,以配合公司業務迅速發展,足以證明市場對具質素及配套齊全的新式工業大廈的肯定。

該代理續指,觀塘已由過往為工廈集中地,搖身一變成為港島中西區以外,香港第二核心商業區,業務較傳統商業區更多元化,工商業、創意產業、媒體至零售餐飲娛樂活動一應俱全,因而吸引各類型企業於觀塘設據點,當中不乏中小企至跨國大型集團,從而刺激對工商樓面的需求,而是次招租的The Whitney為觀塘區提供獨特之設計風格及完善配套工廈樓面新供應,對租戶而言極具吸引力,而隨着更多租客繼續進駐該廈,料物業招租的反應更為踴躍。

中環巨鋪月租30萬跌70% 交吉一年始租出零售商取代時裝店

受疫情等因素打擊,核心區一綫街道鋪租持續下滑,由幸福藥業家族成員持有的中環皇后大道中聯成大廈巨鋪,總樓面4100方呎,於交吉約1年後,以每月約30萬租出,呎租約73.1元,較舊租急挫約70%,租金重返10年前水平,回報更跌穿一厘。

據市場消息指出,中環皇后大道中41至47號聯成大廈地下41號,地鋪面積約700方呎、閣樓面積約400方呎及地庫面積約3000方呎,總樓面4100方呎,於交吉近一年後,以約30萬獲零售商承租,平均呎租約73.1元,上址早前由連鎖時裝店以100萬租用,故租金急挫近70%。

平均呎租73

據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2018年以4.448億購入,以公司名義RICH THREE INVESTMENT LIMITED持有,註冊董事包括黎元淑等人,為幸福醫藥家族成員,租戶為PTBZ EAST LIMITED,租期為今年11月至2024年11月,並可選擇再續約3年,以最新租金計,租金回報低見0.8厘。

回報低見0.8

翻查資料顯示,該巨鋪上一手業主亦大有來頭,為資深投資者黎永滔,他於3年前沽貨時,成交呎價高逾10萬,黎永滔早於2007年以1.18億購入,持貨11年帳面獲利3.2億,物業期間升值約2.76倍。

幸福醫藥家族成員持有

盛滙基金創辦人李根興評論指,上述鋪位雖位處核心區一綫地段,惟鋪位門面較窄,加上大部分樓面屬地庫部分,以現今市道計,對商戶吸引力較遜息,儘管上一手租金高達百萬元,惟當時正值鋪市高峰期,最新租金急挫7成屬貼近大市水平,亦重回約10年前水平。

區內近期矚目鋪位買賣為由花旗銀行持有的同區會德豐大廈逾萬呎巨鋪,以售後租回形式易手,作價7.1億,買家為外號「台灣張」的資深投資者張彥緒。

廣播道住宅地今截標

市區豪宅用地供應罕有,政府亦加快推地步伐;九龍塘廣播道79號豪宅地將於今天截標,亦是本財政年度賣地表上唯一一幅推出的九龍市區住宅地,綜合市場估值約12.8億至15.75億,每呎樓面地價約1.8萬至2.2萬,料將吸引各大發展商參與競投。

可建樓面7.15萬方呎

據了解,新地、嘉華、佳明及遠東發展均有意入標。

上述廣播道豪宅地,前身為香港電台教育電視中心,地盤面積約23864方呎,可建總樓面約71591方呎,指定作私人住宅用途。

項目位處九龍塘傳統豪宅地段,更是本財政年度賣地表上唯一推出招標的九龍市區用地。

新地嘉華等研入標

業內人士指,市場對豪宅需求殷切,而且地皮規模四正,剪裁設計更靈活,再加上項目發展規模小,總投資額較低,料掀起各大財團積極競投,出價亦會較為積極進取。綜合市場估值約12.8億至15.75億,料每方呎地價約1.8萬至2.2萬。

估值約15

有測量師指出,由於市區同類地皮供應不多,預計發展商會非常積極投地,料有15至20個發展商入標競投,估計發展商會以高價搶地,預計會以接近市場上限上價批出。

該測量師認為該地未來仍以發展豪宅單位為主,密度較九龍其他地區低。

另一測量師表示,項目位處傳統豪宅地段,地皮更是廣播道區內自2006年後首幅全新政府地皮推出招標,可見區內供應相當罕有,加上項目規模及投資額適中,故料吸引不少發展商參與,尤其是中小型發展商,並預料入標反應將相當理想。

油麻地CASA酒店全幢 6.5億洽至尾聲

料外資基金承接 擬發展共居項目

核心區全幢物業具增值空間,消息指,油麻地彌敦道Casa酒店全幢,獲6.5億元洽購至尾聲,料快將售出,項目提供162間房。據悉由基金洽購,擬發展共居市場。

市場消息指,油麻地全幢物業獲洽購,涉及油麻地487至489號,現為CASA酒店,去年業主曾把物業放售,叫價約8億元,而近日項目獲財團積極洽購,出價達6.5億元,預計快將易手。消息稱,該財團為一家外資基金,擬購入後發展共居。

地盤面積3103 共162間房

物業地盤面積約3,103平方呎,樓高14層,地下為商舖,2樓設有餐廳,而酒店大堂設於1樓,3至14樓為客房,每層面積約1,495至2,043平方呎,提供10至16間房,面積約100餘平方呎,合共162間房。酒店位於彌敦道,鄰近旺角購物區,定位為三星酒店,吸引自由行旅客入住。不過,因疫情持續一年半,零旅客下衝擊生意,故業主有意放售物業。

據悉,業主早於2007年以1.59億元購入物業,其後自行營運酒店。據了解,2013年該品牌亦租用比鄰彌敦道483至485A號,開設Casa Deluxe酒店,提供87間房。惟2019年下半年社會運動爆發,遊客人數減少,加上去年1月出現疫情,該酒店於去年中結業。

疫情下酒店生意慘淡,投資者卻步,令酒店買賣大幅減少,今年市場僅錄數宗買賣。值得留意,新買家購入後,因經營酒店困難,而住屋需求則仍強勁,多打算更改用途為共居作收租。

酒店生意淡 投資者轉型收租

如早前帝邦旗下尖沙咀寶勒巷晉逸精品酒店全幢,獲外資基金以9.8億元承接,提供158間房,消息指將作共居用途。另外,土瓜灣譚公道103至107號酒店,本年中以3.8億元成交,由Weave集團購入,該集團已營運多幢共居項目,土瓜灣亦將轉作共居,明年初推出市場。

投資市況仍旺,近期不少全幢物業獲承接,如日前英皇 (00163) 以5.85億元,沽出葵涌Toppy Tower全幢工廈,新買家為安樂工程 (01977) 。

另外,大坑道341至343號全幢住宅項目,以約12.4億元易手,呎價高見6.9萬元,由培新集團購入,將重建成豪宅。

Kimbee Chan seeks $600m for Peak pad

Billionaire Joseph Lau Luen-hung's wife, Kimbee Chan Hoi-wan, was said to be asking HK$600 million for a 4,299-square-feet house at Gough Hill Residences on the Peak, marking a per-sq-ft price of around HK$139,600.

The average price per sq ft more than doubled compared to Lau's buying price of HK$180 million 13 years ago, and is also 50 percent higher than Wheelock Properties' new luxury property on 77/79 Peak Road nearby.

The property for sale was purchased by Lau in January 2009 from Parklane Hotel's Chan family, who then gave it to his wife as a gift.

The sale is another attempt by Kimbee Chan, chief executive of Chinese Estate (0127), to cash in by selling holdings. The backer of embattled developer China Evergrande (3333) offloaded a total of 435 million Evergrande shares in two weeks, taking in at least HK$987 million in August based on the lowest closing price during the period, data of Central Clearing and Settlement System showed.

To that end, Lau and Chan's stake in Evergrande slid to 4.68 percent, or 620 million shares, on September 27 from 1.06 billion shares on September 10, lower than the 5 percent disclosure threshold. Therefore their offloading afterward will no longer need to be disclosed.

This came before Chan's proposal to take Chinese Estate private by offering minority shareholders at HK$4 apiece, according to the Hong Kong developer's announcement. The price marked a 38 percent premium to its last traded price as the offer was announced.

However, the offer price came in at a nearly 69.2 percent discount to the company's net asset value per share attributable to shareholders of HK$12.99, as shown by the interim result. The major shareholder said the cancellation price will not be increased.

In other news, Chinese Estates (0127) said it sold senior bonds issued by Kaisa Group (1638) and will record a realized loss of approximately HK$225.89 million. Shares of Kaisa rose 3.3 percent to HK$1.70 yesterday.

Price of parking spaces at Hong Kong’s Lohas Park soar a record 23 per cent as Wheelock sells last 87 bays at Malibu flats

Wheelock Properties released the final 87 parking lots at Malibu for up to HK$2.46 million each, an increase of 23 per cent from two years ago

Malibu, comprising 1,600 flats in six tower blocks, only has 263 parking bays between them, or one spot for every six flats

The price of car parking spaces at the Lohas Park residential enclave in Hong Kong’s Tseung Kwan O district has risen to a record high, as a chronic shortage in the area forced vehicle owners to bid up prices.

Wheelock Properties, the developer of the Malibu apartments, released the final 87 parking lots in the project at a price range of between HK$2.2 million and up to HK$2.46 million (US$316,396) each, an increase of as much as 23 per cent from two years ago. Applications to bid for the lots closed yesterday.

Hong Kong is well served by networks of subway trains, surface trams and buses that connect all but the most exclusive residential enclaves with the main business districts, a convenience that has reduced the need to own cars, with the local population owning fewer than 80 vehicles for every 1,000 people, at the bottom 40 per cent of global rankings.

Still, the supply of car parking areas had lagged far behind the growth in vehicle ownership, as developers built homes with higher profit margins at the expense of parking bays. Malibu, comprising 1,600 flats in six tower blocks, only has 263 parking bays between them, or one spot for every six flats.

“Monthly rent increased to HK$5,000 and still it’s not easy to find one,” property agent said.

The soaring price of space at Malibu matches rising costs at other developments in Lohas Park.

A parking space at the 10-year-old Le Prestige, built by Cheung Kong and now renamed CK Asset Holdings, sold earlier this month for HK$2.3 million, setting a record for the neighbourhood.

“Sales of homes and investment properties have been brisk as the overall economy improves after the Covid-19 pandemic was brought under control,” agent said. “Parking lots are a popular asset class among investors as they involve smaller lump sum amounts.”

Wheelock is offering the Malibu spots to residents and property owners in other developments at Lohas Park: The Capitol, Le Prestige, Hemera, Wings At Sea and LP6, said Wheelock’s spokesman. Having more bids for the limited number of lots will only send prices soaring, agents said.

“It is likely the highest price for a parking bay in Lohas Park once the deal is done,” another agent said.

Sales of residential parking bays in the first nine months of this year jumped 83 per cent to 7,773, according to data from property agency.

The exorbitant cost of parking bays match residential real estate prices in Hong Kong, the most expensive urban centre to live and work in for more than 10 consecutive years.

In May, a spot sold for a world record of HK$11.9 million at the exclusive Mount Nicholson development on The Peak.

The removal of Hong Kong’s double stamp duty had benefited the sector as well, agent said.

The double tariff – known as the Doubled Ad Valorem Stamp Duty (DSD) – was introduced in February 2013 with the aim of tackling speculative activity in the market. It doubled or increased stamp duty rates across the board. The double levy was rolled back on November 25 last year, when duties reverted to their original rates.

遠東金融中心每呎60元市價租出


甲廈租賃於疫市下逐步回穩,消息指,由紀惠集團主席廖湯慧靄等持有的金鐘遠東金融中心高層單位,於交吉逾三年後,以每呎約60元租出,屬市價水平。

交吉逾三年

市場消息指出,金鐘遠東金融中心高層05及07室,面積約3423方呎,以每呎約60元租出,月租約205380元,據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址業主於2006年以1.15389億購入,以公司名義RISE CONCEPT INVESTMENT LIMITED持有,註冊董事為廖湯慧靄、廖偉芬及廖偉麟,以最新租金計,享租金回報約2.1厘。

據代理指出,上址於2018年中交吉至今,早前每呎叫租105元,惟受社運及疫情等因素打擊,市場承租力疲弱,故業主議租空間亦逐步擴闊,惟最新租金亦貼近市場價水平。

據代理行資料顯示,該甲廈近期頻錄承租個案,其中,中層01至02室,面積6382方呎,於今年9月以306336元租出,平均呎租約48元;此外,該甲廈低層11室,面積2606方呎,於今年7月以109452元租出,平均呎租約42元。

廖偉麟母親廖湯慧靄旗下紀惠集團,坐擁逾400億資產,包括持貨數十年收租的豪宅及甲廈。

港島甲廈空置率達10% 代理:創歷來第二高

中港通關未有定案,商廈靠本地需求,空置情況未有明顯改善,有代理行資料顯示,9月份港島區整體甲廈空置率約10%,接近歷來新高水平,按月上升0.21個百分點,按年大增1.83個百分點。核心商業區中以金鐘表現最疲弱,最新空置率按月升0.23個百分點至約9.02%,為核心商業區中最高。該行認為,雖然疫情緩和,但全面通關未有具體措施及日期,商廈缺乏中資及外資支持,預計短期內租售價受壓。

該行代理表示,9月份港島區整體甲廈空置率錄約10%,對比8月份上升0.21個百分點,較2020年同期更大幅遞增1.83個百分點,最新空置率接近歷來次高,據該代理行自2006年記錄空置率走勢,對上一次新高水平為今年7月份約10.02%,反映今年港島區空置情況仍見嚴重。

金鐘表現最疲弱

其中,金鐘區表現令人擔憂,9月份空置數字為9.02%,為核心區最高,按月升0.23個百分點,對比去年9月微增0.01個百分點。中環甲廈空置率升幅較輕微,由8月份約7.29%,上升0.35個百分點至最新9月份約7.64%;毗鄰上環區則維持於約9%水平,按月微增0.20個百分點至9月份約9.61%。灣仔及銅鑼灣空置情況對比8月份有所改善,然而整體空置率則處於偏高水平,兩區9月份空置率分別為13.12%及10.59%。

該代理預料,短期內港島核心區商廈空置繼續徘徊,租金預計持續受壓。

佳寶一個月急沽六鋪位 疫市下大手減磅共套現5.67億

疫市持續多時,整體經濟情況疲弱,部分財團選擇大手沽貨減磅,佳寶超市於過去一個多月,急沽6個鋪位,分布港九新界民生區,合共套現5.67億,部分鋪位由佳寶自用,部分則作為出租。

過去一個多月,佳寶超市迅速沽出6個鋪位,最大宗的是深水埗一個自用鋪位,順寧道253號地下巨鋪,現址佳寶超市,另加一個交吉地庫,建築面積合共約11550方呎,以1.23億易手;由於該鋪位自用,佳寶先後於2013年及2020年併合入上址,作價共約9280萬,帳面獲利約3020萬,物業升值約33%。

市場人士眾說紛紜

由於經營超市關係,一直以來,佳寶超市創辦人林曉毅以自用角度,集中購買民生地段鋪位,不少更位處街市旺段,自用以外,更將部分出租。對於林氏今番大手沽貨,市場人士眾說紛紜,有說他急需資金作其他用途,因而迅速沽貨;另一個說法是,在疫市持續下,市民多留守家中煮飯,街市及超市食品需求殷切,帶挈有關鋪位水漲船高。投資者在商言商,林曉毅趁勢減磅止賺,部署下一步行動。本報聯絡林曉毅,惟直至截稿時,未獲回覆。

帳面合共賺取1.34

本報統計他過去一個多月沽售6個鋪位,合共套現5.67億。除了衙前塱道56至66號御門.前地下C號鋪,蝕讓386萬外,其餘五個都賺錢,金額由320萬至3980萬不等,合共賺取1.34億,扣除所蝕讓,帳面仍有逾1.3億的淨獲利。

此6個鋪位分布六個民生區,深水埗、長沙灣、九龍城、土瓜灣、屯門及西灣河,其中,持貨逾10年的是深水埗荔枝角道302至304地鋪,建築面積2400方呎,以6500萬易手,於2010年以2520萬購入,持貨11年升值約1.57倍。而持貨只有六年的土瓜灣及屯門鋪位,帳面錄得10%至20%的升幅。

業內人士指,核心鋪位高峰期為2012至2014年,於此時期購入鋪位,不少錄蝕讓,惟民生地段鋪位,向來表現平穩,林曉毅在疫市下沽貨,仍然獲得不俗的盈利。

港鐵東涌項目掀大中財團爭奪

港鐵項目成土地供應重鎮,旗下東涌牽引配電站物業項目,將於本周五截標,市場人士預期,將吸引大型發展商及以合組財團形式參與,近年頻頻奪地得手的會德豐地產,就表明一定入標競投。

東涌牽引配電站項目,地盤面積約15.5萬方呎,可建住宅約93.96萬方呎,料可供應1400至1800伙,為東涌區近年最具規模新供應。

會地梁志堅:一定會入標

會德豐地產主席梁志堅向本報表示,集團對東涌牽引配電站項目相當有興趣,表明一定會入標競投,並指東涌至今發展相當完善,看好區內前景。他認為,上述項目適合發展中小型單位為主,料目標主打家庭客,加上項目鄰近港鐵東涌站,位置優越。梁志堅又透露,集團雖然於東涌區內持有項目,但尚未發展,希望上述東涌配電站項目,能成為集團於東涌首個發展項目。

有測量師認為,東涌牽引配電站項目位置不俗,尤其是將來東涌東站發展,將會大大受惠,而未來東涌東及西延綫,將有助整個地區發展,然而項目補地價過高,相信發展商難以進取價競投。

資料顯示,項目位於東涌文東路、毗鄰東涌北公園。補地價超過47.65億,每方呎約5072元,分紅比例不少於15%,另發展商需額外出價競投,入場價不低於2.5億。

項目於上月底合共接獲35份意向書,包括新地、長實、恒基、信和、新世界及會德豐地產、南豐、華懋、佳兆業、遠東發展、建灝地產、英皇國際、其士國際、路勁、中國海外與萬科香港等不同財團提交意向。

資策傳2.37億買中環舊樓

市區重建地盤有價,中環威靈頓街一幢由五金行持有的舊樓,獲財團斥資2.37億元高價購入,呎價逾4萬元,料由毗鄰業主資本策略 (00497) 購入的呼聲高,將可合併成一個佔地約6000方呎的地盤作重建發展。

根據土地註冊處資料,中環威靈頓街154及156號一幢相連物業,以2.37億元登記售出,新買家為海外註冊公司DOUBLE COSMOS LIMITED。據了解,物業佔地約1200方呎,現為6層高舊樓,總建築面積約5493方呎,以成交價計算,呎價約4.31萬元。

上址原業主為售賣鎖類及五金產品的永利銅鐵或有關人士,早於1972年以35萬元購入,大幅獲利逾2.36億元,升值676倍。據悉,物業的部分地舖及樓上大部分單位,目前俱由原業主自用。

永利銅鐵2.7億轉購上環物業

由於沽出自用物業,永利銅鐵或有關人士亦在短時間內斥2.7億元購入上環永樂街59號全幢6層高舊樓,總建築面積約10917方呎,呎價約2.47萬元。以呎價作比較,永利銅鐵或有關人士沽出威靈頓街的物業,較入市永樂街高出約74%。

是次買入威靈頓街154及156號的DOUBLE COSMOS LIMITED,雖然為海外註冊公司,但據悉由毗連物業的業主購入。資料顯示,資本策略早於2015年起收購位於威靈頓街及鴨巴甸街交界的威靈頓街160至164號曾昭灝大廈,至2019年完成收購。該大廈地下至1樓為著名中式食肆蓮香樓,雖然不斷有指物業將清拆,但未有實際行動,料與業主有意進一步擴大地盤面積才開始發展有關。據悉,位於曾昭灝大廈旁的威靈頓街158號全幢,2019年中已獲海外註冊公司透過公司買賣形式購入,傳當時作價約2億元,買家亦有指為資本策略。

地積比15 可重建商廈

由於是次資本策略成功以高價購入威靈頓街154及156號,意味已購入威靈頓街154至164號全數業權,地盤佔地可達6000方呎,地皮屬「商業」規劃用途,地積比率達15倍,可建一幢總樓面約9萬方呎的商廈,為核心商業區提供罕有的新供應。

事實上,資本策略對中環區情有獨鍾,現正發展的項目包括閣麟街48號及威靈頓街92至96號,都將建成銀座式商廈,總樓面分別為3.18萬及4.32萬方呎。

投資者「磁帶大王」陳秉志密密沽貨,剛以約7,000萬元,沽出觀塘開源道觀塘廣場商場舖位。

觀塘廣場錄得舖位成交,涉及地下20至25號舖,面積約1,687平方呎,以約7,000萬元易手,呎價約4.15萬元。該舖屬商場內舖,惟開源道人流暢旺,故舖位價值亦高。

持有多組舖位 市值約1

「磁帶大王」陳秉志接受查詢時,表示舖位將以交吉交易,而買家購入自用。他指,早於20年前以3,000萬元購入觀塘廣場地下多組舖位,包括16至25號舖,如今沽出一部分,另亦持有16至19號舖,面積由268至507平方呎不等,分別由找換店等租用,市值約1億元,預計全數售出,可套現約1.7億元。

陳秉志近月積極沽貨,先後沽出中環中心全層商廈、元朗加州花園兩間洋房等。

Agent hurt in clash over The Arles sales

The Arles in Fo Tan sold at least 60 out of 338 units it offered in the second round of sales over the weekend , amid a dispute between agents over the sequence of picking up the flats on Saturday.

At first it was just a verbal conflict between agents from the two of the largest local real-estate brokers in Hong Kong. Then it turned into a physical clash with one injured and taken to hospital.

New homes from other developers are also ready for action.

Kowloon Development (0034) has received nearly 2,000 checks by yesterday for the first batch of 312 units at Manor Hill in Tseung Kwan O, marking a 5.4-times over-subscription. The second price list may be released as soon as today.

The flats in the first price list range from 203 sq ft to 428 sq ft, with discounted per sq ft prices from HK$18,972 to HK$23,035.

The cheapest flat -- a 203-sq-ft unit -- is priced at HK$3.89 million after discounts, the lowest in the Lohas Park area in 13 years.

The Henley III in Kai Tak revealed its fourth price list offering 45 flats ranging from 229 sq ft to 778 sq ft, the developer, Henderson Land Development (0012), said.

The secondary market also performed well over the weekend with 12 deals recorded in a property agency's top 10 housing estates, up from 11 transactions last week.

In other news, retail shop transaction volumes increased 19.7 percent year-on-year to 146 in September, and the value of these deals nearly doubled to HK$2.62 billion, data from the Land Registry showed.

友邦灣仔地盤 申建商廈涉逾25萬呎

友邦就旗下位於灣仔司徒拔道1號、即友邦大廈的舊址,向城規會申請興建1幢綜合用途大廈,涉及總樓面約25.4萬平方呎。

項目最快2023年底落成

項目現時坐落於「商業」地帶,佔地約4.25萬平方呎,申請人現計劃重建為1幢18層高 (不包括地庫部分) 的商廈,以擬議約6倍地積比率發展,涉及的總樓面面積約25.4萬平方呎,項目最快2023年底落成。

根據申請文件顯示,擬建項目設有4層地庫停車場,當中寫字樓部分佔約22.5萬平方呎總樓面,其餘樓層用作食肆、休憩、運動及文化等用途。

值得留意的是,文件中的平面圖亦顯示,項目的19樓設有1伙住宅,實用面積約915平方呎,屬3房間隔。

地皮前身為友邦大廈,當時樓高27層 (連同地庫及停車場)。項目於1969年初入伙,多年來屬友邦在港總部,惟集團在2018年已決定就項目重建,並已經拆卸項目。

另外,昨日城規會審議部分申請,並就有關《荃灣分區計劃大綱草圖》的申述,包括位於油柑頭村附近及寶豐台的兩幅用地分別由「綠化地帶」改劃為「住宅 (乙類) 6」及「住宅 (乙類) 7」地帶,及訂明建築物高度限制等修訂,表示不予接納。同時,會方亦對部分申述表示備悉。

會方將於3至4星期後,公布有關對《市區重建局山東街/地士道街發展計劃草圖》及《旺角分區計劃大綱草圖》之申述及意見的決定。

九龍塘廣播道地接17標書 反應熱烈

吸本地財團中資入標 估值10.7億至15.7億

屬近年九龍塘廣播道罕有供應的住宅官地昨日截標,並接獲17份標書,反應熱烈。地皮吸引各路發展商入標參戰,除本地大型財團外,中資亦參與競投。

相隔15年後推出的九龍塘廣播道住宅官地,昨日截標。據地政總署公布,地皮合共接獲17份標書,其中長實 (01113) 、新地 (00016) 、會德豐地產、信置 (00083) 、建灝、英皇國際 (00163) 、華懋、遠東發展 (00035) 、佳明 (01271) 、麗新發展 (00488) 、嘉華 (00173) 、大鴻輝興業等均以獨資身份競投,而富豪 (00078) 及百利保 (00617) 合資投標。另外,地皮亦吸引中資參戰,包括中國海外 (00688) 及路勁 (01098) 。

英皇:適合發展精品豪宅

不少發展商認為地皮優質,當中英皇集團 (國際) 物業經理蔡宏基表示,由於地皮剪裁方正,適合發展精品豪宅。雖然龍翔道或有噪音問題,但是地皮享有開揚景觀,他預計地皮適合發展面積800至1,200平方呎的住宅,並看好地皮前景。問及豪宅市況,他認為,全年豪宅市場成交非常多,市道向好。

建灝地產行政經理林綺華亦指,地皮屬於豪宅區,出價已計入地皮後面的公路及景觀等因素。而佳明項目經理曾嘉敏稱,考慮到後方為龍翔道,或有噪音問題,惟向南景觀不俗,又指是次出價合理。

有測量師表示,鑑於地皮規模及投資額適中,故受到不少發展商歡迎,而是次亦不乏中小型發展商入標競投,入標反應相當理想。此外,地皮四正,剪裁設計更靈活,發展條件不俗,料可發展成精品豪宅。

地皮剪裁方正 有開揚景觀

地皮位於九龍塘廣播道79號,前身為香港電台教育電視中心,位處長實發展的私人住宅星輝豪庭及尚御之間。上述地皮佔地約2.39萬平方呎,可建樓面約7.16萬平方呎。截標前地皮的市場估值介乎10.74億至15.75億元,即每呎樓面地價大約1.5萬至2.2萬元。

值得一提的是,以往廣播道一帶集合香港著名傳媒機構,並被稱為「五台山」。而廣播道對上一幅推出的住宅官地,為2006年招標的廣播道1號,當時由信置投得,並發展為逸瓏。

Hong Kong’s buyers shrug aside leftover projects in their rush for small, cheaper homes as robust supply spoils them with options

Centralcon Properties sold 160 flats, or 47 per cent of the second round of 338 units earmarked for sale at The Arles in Sha Tin on Saturday, agents said

Wheelock Properties was less lucky with its Koko Hills project, launched more than a year ago in July 2020, selling only four out of 101 units on offer

Hong Kong’s weekend home sales were mixed, with buyers piling in after new launches and the smallest flats that require less upfront payments, giving their collective cold shoulder to unsold projects left over from last year.

Centralcon Properties sold 160 flats, or 47 per cent of the 338 flats earmarked in its second round of sales at The Arles in Sha Tin as of 8:30pm, extending last weekend’s success which found buyers for 82 per cent of the 536 apartments on offer.

Wheelock Properties was less lucky with its Koko Hills project in Nam Tin which was launched more than a year ago in July 2020, selling only four out of 101 units on offer, sales agents said.

“Homebuyers were quick to snap up lower priced single and two-bedroom flats at The Arles, but were more hesitant to purchase flats priced above HK$10 million (US$1.3 million) as there were more choices in the market,” property agent said, adding that sales were within expectations.

The Arles is a crucial test of whether Hong Kong’s residential property bull run can maintain its momentum in October. The project is also the first sales launch in the New Territories since Hong Kong’s Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor unveiled her plan during her annual Policy Address this month to build a Northern Metropolis close to the southern border of mainland China, where 2.5 million people may live within 20 years.

The outlook for the property market brightened after Lam’s address, and transactions of both new and second-hand homes are expected to quicken, another said. The agent also predicts new home transactions could reach 2,200 units in October, reaching their highest level in 11 months.

Thousands of new homes are scheduled for launch in Hong Kong in the remainder of the financial year ending in March 2022, with another agency predicting an annual increase of 14 per cent to 36,919 units.

CK Asset Holdings and Henderson Land Development, two of Hong Kong’s largest and best-known property developers, are poised to release 2,000 new homes between them in the New Territories.

The latest round of Centralcorn’s sales at The Arles featured studio units, all the way up to three-bedroom apartments with sizes ranging from 228 square feet to 677 sq ft (63 square metres), with prices from HK$4.96 million up to HK$16 million after discounts of up to 15 per cent, as is the industry norm.

The average price for the latest batch was HK$21,267 per square foot, up 12.6 per cent from the October 5 launch price of HK$18,888 psf. As many as 26,900 people registered their intention to buy, translating to 79 people vying for each available unit on average, agents said.

Centralcon sold 440 flats, or 82 per cent of the first 536 units put on sale last Saturday and Sunday. When fully completed in March 2023, The Arles will comprise 1,335 apartments of between 228 and 947 square feet, selling for between HK$6.17 million and HK$23.5 million after factoring in discounts.

The same buzz was missing at Koko Hills, which comprises three phases. The first phase has 413 apartments in three tower blocks, one of which stands at 21 storeys.

The largest apartments at Koko Hills were set aside for sales by tender, with 14 of them earmarked for this purpose. The remaining 87 flats for open sales were single-bedroom units and three-bedroom flats, with sizes ranging from 366 sq ft to 770 sq ft and prices from HK$7.94 million to HK$17.5 million.

外資升級擴充 租遮打大廈1.5萬呎


瑞士私人銀行 每呎120元租交易廣場三座全層

中環超甲廈租務市場略為轉好,外資機構進行擴充。美資對冲基金公司租用中環遮打大廈約1.5萬平方呎單位,作升級兼擴充。另瑞士私人銀行,亦租用同區交易廣場三座全層作擴充。

近期整體中環商廈租務略轉好,特別超甲廈物業,獲得外資及中資擴充租用。近日市場先後錄得兩宗外資機構在港擴充個案。市場消息指,中環交易廣場三座16樓全層,面積約1.1萬平方呎,以每呎約120元租出。按呎租計,較高峰期回調約2成。

據了解,新租客為外資機構Lombard Odier,屬瑞士私人銀行,主要業務包括財富管理。據悉,該機構亦租用置地旗下交易廣場二座39樓,約7,500平方呎單位,如今因業務擴充,租用同系交易廣場三座全層單位。

商廈租務氣氛改善 新租個案增

除了擴充業務外,亦有不少機構趁機升級。消息指,中環遮打大廈5樓單位,實用面積約1.5萬平方呎,實用面積呎租約130元,由於該單位屬物業最低層,租金水平相對較低。新租客為Schonfeld Strategic Advisors,屬美國對冲基金。據悉,該機構原租用中環萬宜大廈,面積約8,000平方呎辦公室,如今面積擴充近1倍外,亦升級至超甲廈。

本港疫情緩和,機構重新作部署,令整體商廈租務氣氛改善,中環新租個案上升。據一外資代理行統計指,9月份中環甲廈租金按月漲0.6%,呎租約90.3元,屬連續兩個月錄得升幅,而再對上一次區內得租金增長,為2019年5月。另戴德梁行統計指,今年第三季本港錄得32萬平方呎正吸納,扭轉長達兩年甲廈負吸納情況。

租金大幅下調 吸引機構搬遷

由於超甲廈租金從高峰大幅向下調整,吸引機構趁機搬遷,如國際金融中心二期全層單位,面積約2.5萬平方呎,原由投資機構瑞銀租用,集團棄租樓面,最終獲中資資產管理公司承接,呎租約130元,而集團總部將由灣仔升級至中環超甲廈。不過,由於中環空置率達7.8%,而且尚未通關,機構來港擴充有難度,相信空置率偏高仍維持一段時間,租金亦在低位徘徊。

甲廈租務增 空置率未見明顯降

本港疫情緩和,近日整體甲廈租務活動增,當中仍以搬遷為主,整體空置率未有明顯下降。

有外資代理行最新發表的報告指出,9月份中環寫字樓租金按月增長0.6%至每平方呎90.3元,錄得連續兩個月升幅,並重返90元以上,對上一次中環錄得租金增長已是2019年5月,可見市場逐漸呈現復甦迹象。是次增長主要由市場物色更優質的寫字樓空間所帶動。

9月整體市場租金按月下跌0.1%,平均月租為每平方呎55.7元。其他主要分區市場中以港島東錄得相對較大的租金跌幅。

截至9月底,中環區甲級寫字樓空置率升至7.8%。然而,區內的退租樓面在月內有所減少,反映企業縮減規模的趨勢放緩。9月整體甲級寫字樓市場錄得180,100平方呎的負吸納量。

中資擴充國際金融中心二期全層

租務方面,中環超甲廈錄務成交,涉及國際金融中心二期46樓全層,面積約2.5萬平方呎,以每平方呎約130元租出。新租客為中資機構,主力業務為資產管理,該集團兩年前租用灣仔 One Hennessy 約萬餘平方呎樓面,如今業務擴充,增至中環國際金融中心二期全層約2.5萬平方呎樓面,兼可升級至中環甲廈地標。按最新成交呎租計,已較物業高峰期近200元,平約3成。

該樓層原由投資銀行瑞銀租用,早前決定棄租,如今獲得承接。

另外,同區交易廣場三座錄得全層租務,涉及物業14樓全層,總樓面約10,150平方呎,獲金融科技公司租用,成交呎租約120元。新租客為數字資產金融服務公司HashKey Group。該公司原租用數碼港較細辦公室,現租用中環甲廈全層,提升寫字樓級數。

觀塘國際貿易中心 呎租32

至於非核心區方面,觀塘國際貿易中心錄得租務,涉及12樓全層,以及15樓部分樓面,合共約5.2萬平方呎,成交呎租約32元,屬頗高水平。新租客為體育用品NIKE,該品牌於十年前租用九龍灣國際交易中心29、30及31樓,屬項目最頂3層,合共約7.8萬平方呎,租約即將到期。是次NIKE轉租國際貿易中心,既可提升寫字樓級數,同時亦縮減約3成樓面。

至於觀塘創紀之城一期全層,面積約2.1萬平方呎,呎租約25元。據悉,新租客華潤本身已租用該廈單位,是次屬擴充。

該行代理表示,由於租戶重新調整其地產計劃,並物色更優質的辦公空間,因此,寫字樓市場租賃活動主要涉及搬遷和辦公室整合。

灣仔瑞安中心 配套完善交通便

瑞安中心位處灣仔北,大廈附近配套完善,明年東鐵綫會展站通車將更為方便,前景甚佳。

瑞安中心位於港灣道6至8號,同時瑞安集團亦在該廈設立總部,屬分散業權的大廈,亦是灣仔以北甲廈指標之一。大廈附近鄰近入境事務處、稅務大樓等的政府大樓、香港會議展覽中心、會展廣場辦公大樓中環廣場等等的商業大廈,對比起中環的商廈地段,灣仔亦不算失禮,都受商客歡迎。

瑞安中心的地理位置較偏僻,但勝在交通配套十分齊全,巴士路綫選擇多,亦有渡輪來往尖沙咀,同時設有港鐵灣仔站,由灣仔站A出口前往瑞安中心只需10分鐘路程,加上明年第二季沙中綫會展站啟用,由新站步行至瑞安中心約5分鐘路程,大大壓縮車程時間,集合各方的優勢,相信有助上班一族、商客及其他企業帶來全新體驗。

至於配套方面,該廈的大堂旁邊設有快餐店、及西餐廳方便商客光顧,同時大廈對面為君悅酒店,方便進行商務餐飲,亦可以步行至鷹君中心或駱克道一帶,該處有大量餐廳選擇,約步行5至7分鐘便到,相信滿足商客對餐飲的需求。

每層樓面約1.1萬至1.2萬呎

物業在1987年4月落成,全幢大廈共有35層,另有低層商場及可容納140部車輛之三層停車場。大廈設有2個電梯大堂,分別通往B1至B3、3至11樓,另一個升降機大堂則通往12至35樓,有助將人流分流,可以方便商客來往不同樓層,加上在大堂旁邊設有水牌,而且指示十分清晰,有助商客以最快時間前往所需的樓層。每層樓面約1.1萬至1.2萬平方呎,每個樓層的辦公室景觀主要望向海景及城市景,可以感受維港景色,有助提升靈感。

近年瑞安中心的買賣及租務成交量不多,由於大部分業權由瑞安及恒隆持有,故市場上可供出售的盤源向來緊絀。租務方面,瑞安中心錄得2宗成交,成交為高層04至07室,實用面積為3,863平方呎,以15.4萬元成交,平均呎租約40元。另一宗成交為高層10至18室,實用面積為5,385平方呎,約32.3萬元成交,平均呎租約60元。

旺角中心中層戶 意向呎租45

旺角中心為傳統醫生樓,租務穩定,現中層單位放租,意向呎租約45元。

租金23715至47430

旺角中心位置處於旺角彌敦道黃金地段,大廈名醫滙聚,因此一直備受用家歡迎。代理表示,獲委託放租旺角彌敦道688號旺角中心14樓20及21室,單位面積約527至1,054平方呎,意向租金約23,715元至47,430元,折合每平方呎租約45元。

該代理指,單位設有來去水,方便用戶營運多種行業,而且單位剛完成裝飾工程,用戶可即租即用。

租務方面,9月份物業錄多宗成交,包括中層17室,面積約472平方呎,以每月約1.93萬元租出,呎租約41元。另中層10A室,面積約1,162平方呎,成交月租約5.5萬元,呎租約48元。

仁孚中國原本屬於怡和旗下公司,該公司在今年7月將業務出售予中升控股,估計今次屬於交易後,怡和取回不包括在交易內的物業部分再作部署。

甲廈租金回落帶動租賃

疫情持續下,經濟前景欠佳,甲廈受衝擊,不過,近期隨着甲廈租金回落,帶動租賃增加,部分租客擴張業務,有的更升級進駐知名甲廈。業內人士表示,今年第三季甲廈租賃活動增加,租金下調速度放緩,跌幅亦較上半年收窄。

整體甲廈空置率13.9%

甲廈租賃增加,反應於最新空置率,今年第三季,整體甲廈空置率13.9%,較第二季的14.4%,略為下降,新寫字樓租賃活動以金融和服務式辦公室為主。過往,基於不少企業經營困難,在得到業主同意下,將所承租單位放盤,在市場上另覓租客,繼續履行租約,今年第三季,頂租個案減少,按季減少12%,涉及呎數為6.2萬方呎。

基於租賃活動增加,租金下調速度放緩,按季跌1.2%,較首兩季收窄。過去兩年,甲廈不斷錄得負吸納量,最近才首次錄正吸納量,數量高達32.77萬方呎。雖然如此,有大型代理行預計,第四季寫字樓租金將進一步下降1%至1.5%,正吸納則依然維持,由於空置率高,租客選擇多,首選質素佳及管理良好的甲廈。

料短期內租金微跌

雖然甲廈市場表現向穩,不過,由於供過於求持續,空置率需時消化,料短期內租金微跌或者持續橫行。

舊樓併購市場有望「突破樽頸」 田生區永華:解決辣稅、高門檻及強拍流程「三阻力」

早前特首林鄭月娥指出,為加快市區重建,將研究降低強拍門檻,田生地產主席區永華表示,近年舊樓市場停滯不前,在於面對三大阻力,辣稅、高門檻及強拍流程冗長,當此三大收樓阻力一一解決,舊樓併購市場有望「突破樽頸」。

區永華說,現時收樓量較2011年高峰期大跌80%,最大的阻力不是八成強拍門檻,而是辣稅。「門檻高,我們可跑多幾趟,勤力一些,最終有機會成功。」他表示,靠努力,可將一幢舊樓業權齊集至80%,不過,辣稅帶來的困難,卻是牢不可破。

收樓量較高峰大跌80%

自從BSD (買家印花稅) 出台後,收樓財團需額外支付相等於樓價30%的釐印費,加上利息及收購時間冗長,成本大增。以一個收購價10億的地盤,繳稅後高達13億,成本大增30%,此30%不能當樓按向銀行貸款,收樓歷時數年至逾10年,盡管拆樓時可取回辣稅,惟期間支出大增,令發展商意慾大減甚至卻步。

辣稅最具殺傷力

最新一份施政報告,特首林鄭月娥指出,將研究降低強拍門檻。區永華表示,現時,旺角、太子、九龍城、上環及西環,很多舊樓地鋪所佔業權份數多達30%至50%,阻礙收購;目前市場仍不乏樓高六層或以下的優質舊樓,分布西環、土瓜灣、九龍城及新蒲崗,樓齡普遍60年以上,存在不少失踪人口,加上樓層低,齊集80%業權變得不可能,只要降低門檻,問題才得以解決。

他又說,降低門檻,亦有助瓦解「釘子戶」,市場上一些實力投資者,專門購入舊樓兩成業權,以此索取「天價」。一些老牌家族後人,亦持有高比數業權作長綫收租,無意發展。當面對以上兩種情況,一班有心等待收購、換樓以改善生活的小業主,十分頭痛。

降低門檻 助瓦解「釘子戶」

收樓人經過碰上釘子戶,最終無奈妥協。「市場有極不公平現象,一些善良的大叔,每呎收購價一萬五千元,沒有他們的支持及貢獻,整個地盤無望開展收購,更無望成功,釘子戶卻趁機獲取暴利,堅持每呎索價二萬五千元,否則翹起整個項目。」

區永華建議,政府可加快批出強拍,土地審裁處增加司法人員,處理積壓個案,加快排期上庭步伐。

「有些被強拍的投資者或財團,看中發展商收樓成本沉重 (收樓支出,辣稅及利息),千方百計缺席審訊,將時間拖長,務求買方在價格上妥協。」他表示,某一些個案在批出強拍後,甚至拖延至長達三年後,發展商才得以開展工作。

他建議,政府可容許在強拍批出後,容許發展商涉足地盤,展開交吉及拆樓等工作,此期間,將款項留在法庭或律師樓,繼續與被強拍的一方洽商,不致影響整體的收樓及發展進度。

倡適度調高地積比 釋放舊區發展潛力

田生曾就各區、逐幢看似有潛力的舊樓研究,發現不少舊樓地契、地積比存在問題,只有政府出手才能解決問題;他又建議,透過適度調高地積比,以釋放舊樓發展潛力。

新蒲崗地積比率僅4.8

區永華指出,九龍城區有50%舊樓,樓高3至5層,卻缺乏重建價值,皆因地契屬ONE HOUSE  (每個地段只能單獨建一間屋,不能合併發展),令收樓財團卻步;還有,新蒲崗地積比4.8倍,太子道西部分舊樓更低於4倍,皆因過往有機場,不能建高樓,現時已不合時宜。他又說,九龍區住宅目前地積比普遍7倍,商住樓9倍,建議放寬至10倍。

區永華指,荃灣楊屋道、元朗大馬路、粉嶺聯和墟及上水石湖墟等,舊樓殘舊不堪,可是地積比僅5倍,缺乏收購誘因,應該放寬地積比。事實上,即使賣地表內新界土地,地積比都有6倍。 他強調,從舊區「熟地」入手,容易增加供應,況且,舊區內街市商場及學校等設施齊全,交通四通八達。

建議市建局重新定位

區永華還認為,市建局取易不取難,與私人市場競爭,向來只選擇有利可圖項目,間中更作「天價」收購,深水埗舊樓每呎收購價1.8萬,田生出價1.3萬至1.5萬,不能與之競爭,「天價」令業主心雄,結果,市建局收樓後,整個區域收購幾乎停頓,惟每呎1.8萬,其實僅限自住、擁一層樓業主得,非自住業主只能按照折扣計算收購價。

他指出,事實上,市政局具備先天條件,有尚方寶劍,不用付辣稅,改契約 (合併後巷等) 不須補價,應該重新定位,專攻問題地契,或地積比用盡的舊樓,土瓜灣「十三街」舊樓,樓齡60多年,且都是鹹水樓,石屎剝落十分嚴重,應該由市建局收購。

「磁帶大王」連環減磅止賺離場 今年暫沽15項物業套現近20億

外號「磁帶大王」陳秉志於今年以來暫沽15項物業,套現近20億,物業包括甲廈、鋪位及豪宅等,分布於港九及新界各區。他昨日向本報表示,物業持有多年,故趁勢沽貨止賺,重新部署,料短期內再度「出手」,將瞄準民生區鋪位。

資深投資者於疫市下連環沽貨,最新以7000萬沽出觀塘廣場地下20至25號鋪,建築面積約1687方呎,呎價約4.15萬,現時由連鎖零售商萬寧以每月約16.17萬租用,料買家回報約2.8厘。他指,早於2001年以3000萬購入該廣場多組一籃子鋪位,持貨多年獲利可觀。

觀塘廣場鋪7000萬易手

陳秉志昨日接受本報訪問時透露,今年沽售物業,大部分於早年購入,持貨多年升值可觀,故止賺沽貨離場,將因應市況,有機會短期內再度入市,瞄準民生區鋪位。

儘管核心區鋪位租售價高位大幅回落,惟中港兩地尚未開關,遊客尚未「回歸」,加上涉資較大,短期內不會考慮。

據本報統計資料顯示,資深投資者陳秉志於今年以來連沽15項物業,合共套現約19.91億,當中最大手為6.74億沽出中環中心25樓全層,據土地註冊處資料顯示,上址買家TOPWORLD UNION ENTERPRISE LIMITED,註冊董事董立筠、董立均及董立新,均為前特首、現任全國政協副主席董建華子女,以全層面積24980方呎計,呎價2.7萬。

陳秉志:持貨多年升值可觀

資料顯示,該全層曾由高盛承租,1年前撤出,項目現以交吉易手,陳秉志3年前以每呎2.5萬購入該廈,涉資約6.245億,是次買賣獲利約4900萬,物業期間升值約7.9%。

廣東道鋪呎租433元跌21%

受疫情重擊,核心區鋪位租金持續下滑,消息指,尖沙嘴廣東道地鋪新獲零售商以約65萬承租,取代連鎖化妝品零售商,平均呎租約433元,較舊租金下跌約21%,租金亦重回約13年前水平。

市場消息指出,尖沙嘴廣東道68至80號地下單號鋪,面積約1500方呎,以約65萬獲零售商承租,呎租約433元,據悉,該鋪早前由連鎖化妝品零售商以約83萬承租,故新租金下跌約21.6%。

重回13年前水平

據地產代理指出,上述鋪位早前以90萬放租,惟因中港兩地尚未通關,零售市道仍然疲弱,令業主議租空間亦逐步擴闊,該鋪早於2008年曾獲以55萬租出,故最新租金貼近13年前水平。

盛滙基金創辦人李根興評論指,上述鋪位位處疫市「重災區」,受遊客近絕迹影響,該街道連鎖化妝品零售商結業消息早前已不絕於耳,並指上述租金跌幅已較大市為低。

零售商每月65萬進駐

另一方面,鋪位市場亦錄成交個案,消息指,粉嶺聯昌街地下單號鋪,面積1200方呎,另設閣樓1200方呎,以2038萬售出,呎價約1.69萬,據悉,原業主於2007年以355萬買入,持貨14年,帳面獲利約1683萬,物業期間升值約4.74倍。

資策2.37億購中環舊樓

舊樓物業有價有市,再錄大手成交。資本策略以2.37億購入中環威靈頓街154及156號全幢,料合併毗鄰地盤發展。

疫情持續平穩,為鋪位市場釋出正面訊息,部分業主亦趁勢放售旗下物業,其中,灣仔瑞安中心中層單位,以意向價約5232萬放售,項目可以買賣公司形式交易,料買家享回報逾2厘水平。

49年升值676

代理表示,灣仔港灣道6至8號瑞安中心12樓09至10室,面積約1804方呎,意向呎價約2.9萬,涉及金額約5232萬,可以買賣公司形式交易。謝氏指,項目以交吉形式出售,單位可望中區商廈景致,附有寫字樓全裝修,料對買家及投資者均具吸引力。

該代理續稱,瑞安中心大部分業權由瑞安及恒隆持有,故市場上可供出售的盤源向來緊絀,是次放售物業屬相當矜罕。

81 new homes at Kai Tak put up for sale

Eighty-one flats at The Henley III in Kai Tak will be put up for sale by Henderson Land Development (0012) on Friday on a first come, first served basis.

Ranging from 229 to 778 square feet, the flats are priced from HK$5.87 million to HK$24.9 million. That means an average price of HK$28,672 per square foot after discounts.

Also at Kai Tak, the first phase of a new project from Wheelock Properties' at 10 Muk Tai Street has been named Monaco One. There will be a total of 492 flats, with one- and two-room units accounting for 80 percent of them.

Managing director Ricky Wong Kwong-yiu said an application has be made for pre-sale consent, and it is expected sales will open next month.

The developer has taken nearly HK$25 billion after selling 1,377 flats in projects this year, Wong added.

Kowloon Development (0034) has meanwhile received nearly 3,000 checks for the first batch of 312 flats at Manor Hill in Tseung Kwan O. Another batch will be offered shortly and will include at least 156 flats comprising studios and one-bedroom units mostly.

On the luxury homes front, 21 Borrett Road in Mid-Levels recorded two transactions via tenders yesterday, with developer CK Asset (1113) collecting HK$386 million.

Despite the current red-hot primary property market, some people have backed out of flat purchases at The Arles in Fo Tan.

Four parties have lately forfeited deposits totaling HK$2.7 million after canceling deals.

Investors turn Hong Kong hotel assets into co-living space on higher occupancy, profit appeal

Warburg Pincus-backed Weave Living and Dash Living are among some of the active co-living operators in recent deals

Property agency sees room for more conversion of hotels, higher co-living occupancy rate as the Covid-19 situation stabilises

Co-living projects are delivering higher occupancy and profits for property owners, underpinning efforts to acquire and convert hotels as the hospitality industry continues to suffer from tough Covid-19 measures, according to consultants.

The city could see about US$300 million worth of real estate transactions involving hotels this year, property agency estimated, with the vast majority of them earmarked for conversion into co-living purposes. The volume may increase to US$500 million next year, it said.

One notably aggressive player is Weave Living, a co-living operator backed by US private equity firm Warburg Pincus, which the agency said is planning to add to its five operating properties in Hong Kong. Dash Living last week unveiled its newest facility in Mong Kok, adding to its current offerings in Hong Kong, Singapore, Sydney and Tokyo.

“We can expect the co-living sector to keep growing in the coming years as many operators are backed by institutional capital looking for high paced growth,” property agent said.

Weave Living bought a hotel building in Kai Tak, Kowloon in August for about HK$380 million (US$49 million), which is very likely to be converted into a co-living project, according to another agency. It will add to its current offerings at Prince Edward, Hung Hom and Olympic.

Dash Living has also been active both with en-bloc conversions as well as partnerships with existing hotel operators. The facility in Mong Kok, the group’s 11th location in Hong Kong, offers 31 rooms measuring 214 to 384 square feet.

Meanwhile, Chinachem Group intends to turn some of the 1,608 rooms at its Nina Hotel Tsuen Wan West in New Territories into co-living space, chief executive Donald Choi said. Some 200 to 300 rooms across several floors will be converted from next year in the pilot programme, the agent added.

The local hotel industry has been in the doldrums for more than two years, having been impacted by the social unrest in 2019 and the Covid-19 pandemic since last year. A prolonged border closure and stringent quarantine requirements have kept tourists out of the city, denting recovery prospects.

While hotel occupancy rate has improved to about 70 per cent in August from a low of about 30 per cent during the outset of the pandemic in February-March last year, income has failed to catch up. Revenue per available room, a key industry metric, is still about 40 to 50 per cent of the takings in 2018 to 2019, according to the agency.

In comparison, some co-living operators have reported occupancy rates as high as more than 90 per cent after property conversion, it added.

The average occupancy rate of co-living operators stands at about 80 per cent, according to the agency. Peak occupancy was about 90 to 95 per cent before the Covid-19 outbreak, while the trough was about 60 to 70 per cent, the property consultancy said.

For co-living operators, the profit margin is likely to be around 65 to 75 per cent because of the long-stay model, smaller overhead costs, and limited services and food and drink facilities, the agency estimated. In normal times, a typical three-star hotel might generate 55 to 65 per cent in operating margin.

There were 306 hotels in Hong Kong, providing about 84,900 rooms as of May 2020, according to government data. About one-third of them have the potential to be converted into co-living use, the agency said.

“With the stabilised Covid situation and the expectation of border opening, the average occupancy rate in the coming 12 months could return to 85 to 90 per cent level” property agent said.

市建土瓜灣項目突招標 賣樓逾90億須分紅 「一口價」決勝負

市建局上月截收意向的土瓜灣鴻福街/銀漢街發展項目,於昨日突擊推出市場招標,據招標條款顯示,將以一口價、價高者得決勝負。另外,日後賣樓收益逾90億即需按比例分紅。業界人士指,市場估值約60至逾62億,每呎樓面地價約1.35萬至1.4萬,料可提供約750伙。

市建局土瓜灣鴻福街/銀漢街項目,由昨日起招標,據招標條款顯示,住宅部分的銷售收益達90億以上便需要跟市建局分紅,首1.5億分紅20%,其後每過1.5億,提高比例10%,最多增至50%。

料可提供約750

非住宅的商場部分,首10年由發展商及市建局共同持有,發展商可以要求市建局出售,但要市建局批准;租金收入扣除開支後,7成歸於發展商,其餘3成歸於市建局。同時以一口價、價高者得作勝負關鍵。

上述鴻福街發展項目,位於土瓜灣鴻福街1至51號 (單數) 及銀漢街2至42A號 (雙數),地盤面積約49310方呎,可建總樓面約443789方呎,預料可提供約750伙。項目市場估值約59.9億至62.1億,每方呎樓面地價約13500至14000元。

項目於9月截收36份意向書,今起邀請34家財團入標競投,即有2家財團未獲邀入標競投,此外,該項目將於下月25日截標。

邀34家財團入標競投

綜合市場消息所得,已遞交意向書的發展商,包括佳兆業、長實、新地、恒基、會德豐地產、信和、南豐、新世界、華懋、英皇國際、建灝地產、遠東發展、中國海外、萬科香港、路勁、旭輝、爪哇、招商局置地、碧桂園等。

有測量師表示,參考先前的庇利街項目,發展商以近82億投得,樓面地價約11414元。認為是次項目在發展要求上同屬「小區發展」模式,性質相近,惟住宅樓面面積較庇利街項目少近23萬呎。相信有興趣發展商均會參考先前造價,然後入標競投。

據招標條款顯示,成功取得本項目的發展商及財團,須按發展協議中列明有關土瓜灣小區發展的「總體設計要求」作為興建新發展項目的藍本,與毗鄰的市建局重建項目產生協同效應,以達致整個小區的重整及規劃更完整及一體化,促進該小區的連接性和步行環境,並以更具特色的「地方營造」及智慧元素,提升該區的宜居度。

市場估值最高62

至於以「小區發展」模式的項目,合共8個,逐步在不同時間批出。各個項目之間將透過「總體設計要求」所訂立的標準,發揮協同效應。

而小區「總體設計要求」包括:加強區內外的連接性,包括連接土瓜灣港鐵站、海心公園等主要公共設施;以小街小鋪的設計特色,擬定小區內的步行街兩旁的配置及綠化設計,為小區締造具特色的街道,從而提升街道活力等。

周大福擴充 50萬租華人行地舖

中環華人行地下舖位早前以50萬元租出,租金較舊租約每月100萬元下跌5成,新租客為周大福,品牌目前租用比鄰舖位,現擴充業務,為近一年較罕見擴充個案。

華人行地下舖位,面積約1,098平方呎,早前以每月約50萬元租出,新租客為周大福珠寶店,該品牌近日已就新舖位進行裝修。

舖位處皇后大道頭段,正對娛樂行,人流甚暢旺。舖位於2012年零售高峰期,曾由鐘錶店以每月230萬元租用,如今租金明顯較高峰期大幅回調。

周大福一直租用比鄰舖位多年,涉及4號舖,面積約2,128平方呎,高峰期月租曾高見400萬元,現已回調。相信品牌有見疫情緩和,零售開始向好,加上舖租從高峰期大幅回落,故租用比鄰舖位擴充。事實上,疫情下鐘錶珠寶店生意急跌,多個品牌如周大福、周生生等均有作出收縮,棄租核心區舖位,是次屬近一年罕見擴充業務個案。

中環租務轉好,同廈另一個舖位早前獲手機品牌三星租用,月租約50萬元,本月已開業。

長實山頂甘道屋地 約7億易手

可建樓面5920呎 每呎高見11.8萬

山頂屋地價值高,消息指,長實 (01113) 持有的山頂甘道屋地,以約7億元沽出,樓面呎價高見約11.8萬元。

市場人士透露,山頂甘道38號屋地易手。據了解,該屋地由長實持有,翻查公司註冊處紀錄,該物業由一間公司持有,而董事包括長實集團高層周偉淦、趙國雄等,惟資料顯示,相關人士已於本年7月辭任董事,而新董事為陳德豪 (CHAN Tak Ho),註冊地址為將軍澳,意味該項目以公司股份轉讓形式易手。本報就有關消息向長實查詢,暫未獲回覆。

傳統豪宅地段 成交較少

甘道38號屋地佔地約11,840平方呎,地積比率0.5倍,可建樓面約5,920平方呎,以約7億元成交價計,每呎樓面地價約11.8萬元。

山頂甘道為傳統豪宅地段,而成交較少,本年中山頂甘道嘉樂園B座低層單位,實用面積2,448平方呎,以1.038億元售出,呎價42,402元,新買家為信置主席黃志祥妻子。附近極少有屋地放售,是次地皮可重建成獨立屋,故以每呎逾11萬元成交。

長實非原址換地 補地價2500

翻查資料,長實原本持有山頂甘道23號大宅Carrick,為《保良局法團條例》倡議人法蘭些士 (John Joseph FRANCIS) 故居,建於1887年,屬於一級歷史建築。政府與業主在2018年3月落實進行非原址換地,以保育該幢歷史建築作活化再用,而去年尾長實完成2,500萬元補地價,換取甘道38號屋地,即每呎補地價約4,223元。

整體市況向好,今年長實亦成功售出多個超級豪宅單位,其中半山區西部波老道21號新盤21 BORRETT ROAD,年內售出多伙,項目23樓1號室,連3個車位售出,單位實用面積3,378平方呎,成交價逾4.594億元,呎價達13.6萬元,為亞洲分層式住宅呎價新高。

URA invites tenders for To Kwa Wan project

The Urban Renewal Authority invited 34 developers and consortiums to submit tenders for the redevelopment project at the junction of Hung Fook and Ngan Hon streets in To Kwa Wan, with a deadline of noon on November 25.

The project, which covers a site area of 4,581 square meters, was first announced in June 2016. Upon completion, it will provide a maximum total gross floor area of 41,229 square meters.

Major surveyors previously expected that the valuation of the site ranged from HK$4.88 billion to HK$5.77 billion.

The successful developer/consortium will be required to build in compliance with requirements of the master design control of To Kwa Wan district as set out in the development agreement of the project to create synergy with adjoining URA development projects, allowing comprehensive restructuring and replanning of the area while enhancing a pedestrian-friendly environment and connectivity.

The URA has started eight connecting projects, including this project, in To Kwa Wan under the district-based approach.

Henderson Land Development (0012) won a 7,406-sq-m site from the URA at Bailey/Wing Kwong streets for HK$8.2 billion last month, which is near to the new site.

This comes as more new homes are put on the market.

CK Asset (1113) said it will release the first price list of its #Lyos project in Yuen Long's Hung Shui Kiu soon, which will offer at least 69 units.

Kowloon Development (0034) released the second price list of the Manor Hill project in Tseung Kwan O, offering 156 units with an average discounted price of HK$22,784 a square foot.

Ranging from 204 to 428 sq ft, the flats are priced from HK$3.89 million to HK$9.2 million after discounts.

The developer has received more than 4,000 checks for the first batch of 312 flats, meaning a 12 times over-subscription.

Office rent in Central has rebounded in September as the trend of recentralization emerged, property agency said.

力寶中心每呎35元租出低20%


近期隨着租金下跌,甲廈租賃趨活躍,金鐘力寶中心一個單位,建築面積約1719方呎,以每呎35元租出,低市價20%。

上址為力寶中心二座中高層1室,建築面積約1719方呎,市場消息透露,該單位為印尼財團Demonsa家族持有,剛以每呎35元租出,月租約6萬,此單位望美國銀行中心,擁有開揚海景,屬於優質單位,租金低市價20%,重返六年前水平。

瑞安中心每呎42元租出低7%

灣仔瑞安中心高層01至08室,建築面積約8014方呎,亦以每呎42元租出,月租33.69萬,該單位望城市景,租金低市價約7%。

近期,甲廈連錄承租,金鐘遠東金融中心高層05及07室,面積約3423方呎,日前以每呎約60元租出,月租約205380元,物業由紀惠集團持有,於2018年中交吉至今,早前每呎叫租105元,惟受疫情等因素打擊,市場承租力疲弱,故業主議租空間亦逐步擴闊,惟最新租金亦貼近市場價水平。紀惠於2006年以1.15389億購入該廈一籃子物業,現時回報可觀。

有代理行資料顯示,9月份港島區整體甲廈空置率約10%,接近歷來新高水平,按月上升0.21個百分點,按年大增1.83個百分點。核心商業區中以金鐘表現最疲弱,最新空置率按月升0.23個百分點至約9.02%,為核心商業區中最高。

皇后大道中鋪月租12萬跌57% 重返15年前水平零售商進駐

臨近年底,商戶紛開業迎接消費旺季,核心區鋪位租賃趨活躍,中環皇后大道中一個商場地鋪,建築面積約1285方呎,以每月12萬租出,平均呎租93元,較舊租金跌57%,租金重返15年前水平。

代理表示,中環皇后大道中九號嘉軒廣場地下5號鋪,建築面積約1285方呎,獲零售商以每月約12萬進駐,平均呎租約93元,前租客為時裝店,於2019年以月租約28萬進駐,新租金跌約57%,亦重返2006年前水平。

上述鋪位雖然是商場地鋪,不過,於2015年市況高峰期,仍然渴求,該鋪位當時由鐘表店承租,每月租金約52.5萬,若對比高峰期,新租金急跌約77%。

平均呎租93

該代理續說,現時租客市場轉活,租客開始租一些核心區鋪位,惟支付租金能力一般,隨着業主肯減租,令租賃市場傾向活躍。

閣麟街呎租68元跌31%

區內連錄鋪位承租,閣麟街26號地鋪,地鋪面積約1100方呎,閣樓面積約800方呎,總面積約1900方呎,以每月約13萬租出,平均呎租約68元,新舊租客皆為食肆,舊租每月約19萬,新租金下跌約31%。

周大福50萬租華人行地鋪

中環皇后大道29號華人行一個地鋪,早前以每月50萬租出,新租客為周大福,涉及為華人行地下1號鋪,建築面積約1098方呎,今年8月以每月約50萬租出,平均呎租455元,新租客周大福正就鋪位進行裝修。該鋪位於2012年零售高峰期,曾由店以每月230萬租用,新租金不比當年。舊租客為Swatch,於去年6月撤出時,月租110萬。

周大福一直租用毗鄰的4號地鋪,建築面積約2128方呎,該鋪位高峰期月租高見400萬,現時亦已下調。

近期華人行地鋪連錄承租,3號及5號地鋪,建築面積1654方呎,早前亦以每月50萬承租,該鋪位舊租客為BLANCPAIN,去年中提早撤出時,月租為180萬,因此,新租金跌幅高達72%。

長實沽山頂甘道地皮

豪宅市場獲資金追捧,其中,長實旗下山頂甘道38號地皮,據土地註冊處資料,以公司股權轉讓形式沽出,市場指,作價約7億,每呎樓面地價約11.8萬元。

據土地註冊處資料,上述地皮由JULI MAY LIMITED持有,公司董事原為趙國雄、周偉淦、譚理明、徐靖生、徐建東、楊逸芝等長實管理層,惟該批董事已於今年7月份全部辭任。而JULI MAY LIMITED的董事現已變為陳德豪及蕭雲芳,意味長實已透過公司股權轉讓售出地皮。本報昨分別向長實,以及新董事陳德豪作出查詢,惟截稿前未獲回覆。

甘道38號地皮屬綠化地帶,獲批准日後改劃為「住宅 (丙類) 6」地帶,面積約11840方呎,將以地積比率0.5倍發展,可建樓面約5920方呎,以造價約7億計,每呎樓面地價高達118243元。

市場指作價七億

上述地皮為長實透過「換地」取得。長實原本持有甘道23號大宅「Carrick」,為超過130年歷史的一級歷史建築,政府於2018年3月與長實落實進行非原址換地,以保育該歷史建築活化再用。直至去年11月,長實完成2500萬補地價,成功換取甘道38號屋地,每呎補地價約4223元,持有地皮近一年易手。

港鐵東涌配電站項目今截標

近年政府全速覓地增加供應,住宅供應的「重責」就落在「一鐵一局」,其中港鐵東涌牽引配電站物業項目,將於今日截標。市場人士預期,由於項目發展規模較大,料發展商會以合組財團方式入標,以加強財政實力及分擔投資風險。綜合市場估值,該地皮連同補地價估值約65.77億至75.17億,每呎樓面地價約7000至8000元。

近年鐵路項目成發展商爭奪目標,上述牽引配電站物業發展項目坐落於東涌市地段第50號地段,位於文東路及毗鄰東涌北公園,鄰近區內指標屋苑映灣園;項目將建於東涌牽引配電站及其鐵路設施上方,地盤面積約15.5萬方呎,住宅可建總樓面約93.96萬方呎,可提供1400至1800個住宅單位,為該區近年最具規模新供應。

最高估值逾75

市場消息指出,該項目補地價金額逾47.65億,即每方呎補價約5072元。據消息人士透露,除補地價外,發展商須就分紅比例向港鐵提出建議,分紅比例不得少於15%,並須以價高者得的「一口價」決定勝負,最少為2.5億,故該筆額外款項成發展商成功突圍的關鍵。

業內人士指出,上述項目位置不俗,尤其是將來東涌東站發展,將會大大受惠,而未來東涌東及西延綫,將有助整個地區發展,然而項目補地價過高,相信發展商難以進取價競投。由於項目發展規模較大,料發展商會以合組財團方式入標,以加強財政實力及分擔投資風險。綜合市場估值,該地皮連同補地價估值約65.77億至75.17億,每呎樓面地價約7000至8000元。

廣播道地高價批 料賣4萬元呎

麗新16億奪得 潘銳民:料主打中大型單位

九龍塘廣播道豪宅地昨日揭標,由麗新發展 (00488) 以逾16.08億元奪得。地皮的每呎樓面地價約2.25萬元,略高於市場估值上限。業界人士預料,項目落成後有機會每呎賣4萬元以上。

地政總署昨日公布,上述地皮由麗新以16.083億元奪得,每呎樓面地價約22,465元,即較市場估值上限約2.2萬元,輕微高出約2%。

麗新發展高級副總裁潘銳民表示,該地皮供應罕有,並屬傳統豪宅區,預計可發展為主打中至大型單位的分層住宅。集團亦會從設計着手,以解決後方龍翔道的噪音問題。他認為,該地皮物有所值,而有見近期豪宅項目售價屢創新高,對豪宅市場前景有信心。

相隔逾2年半 再投得官地

值得一提的是,這是麗新相隔逾2年半後,再次投得政府官地。該集團對上一幅投得的官地,為元朗大旗嶺蚊型住宅地,當年的成交價近2.1億元,每呎樓面地價約4,977元。

有測量師認為,鑑於廣播道的私人住宅樓齡普遍較舊,呎價不算高,因此上述地皮的住宅項目落成後,有條件每呎賣4萬元以上,或突破廣播道呎價新高。

假設地皮的每呎建築成本約6,000元,計入「發水樓面」10%因素後,每呎投資額達2.64萬元。如以2成利潤、8成實用率計算,預計項目落成後,實用呎價逾3.96萬元。事實上,翻查EPRC經濟地產庫資料,近半年比鄰地皮的星輝豪庭及尚御實用成交呎價僅約1.6萬及2.4萬元左右,而逸瓏呎價約3.2萬元,可見發展商對該區的發展前景樂觀。

吸17組財團入標 競爭激烈

地皮上周五接獲17份標書,並吸引多間發展商入標,競爭激烈,參與競投的包括長實 (01113)、新地 (00016)、會德豐地產、信置 (00083) 、建灝、華懋、英皇國際 (00163) 、佳明 (01271) 、嘉華 (00173) 、大鴻輝興業、中資中國海外 (00688) 、路勁 (01098) 等。

地皮位於九龍塘廣播道79號,前身為香港電台教育電視中心,佔地約2.39萬平方呎,可建樓面約7.16萬平方呎。截標前地皮的市場估值介乎10.74億至15.75億元,即每呎樓面地價大約1.5萬至2.2萬元。廣播道對上一幅推出的住宅官地,要數到2006年招標的廣播道1號,地皮當時由信置投得,並發展為逸瓏。

Lai Sun wins Kowloon site for $1.61b

Lai Sun Development (0488) won the residential site No 79 Broadcast Drive in Kowloon Tong for HK$1.61 billion, higher than estimates, as government data showed home prices have fallen for the second consecutive month.

The Lands Department said it had received 17 tenders for the land with a site area of about 2,217 square meters and a gross floor area of 6,651 sq m.

A surveyor said that the site is located in an area where there are traditional luxury homes and will command higher prices than nearby Shek Kip Mei. Therefore the prices for the project can reach HK$40,000 to HK$42,000 per sq ft upon completion.

The site used to be the Educational Television Centre of Radio Television Hong Kong, but last year, the Education Bureau notified the public broadcaster that it had to hand over the building by September 2020 as RTHK had stopped filming new ETV episodes from April 2020.

This is the only land sale for a residential site in Kowloon in the current financial year.

This came after the data from the Rating and Valuation Department showed that Hong Kong's private home price index dropped 0.4 percent, or 1.6 points month-on-month to 396.3 points in September, falling for two consecutive months from July's record high.

The increase of property prices narrowed to 3.39 percent in September compared to a year ago, but home prices have risen 4.32 percent since the beginning of this year.

The rental index, in contrast, went up 0.88 percent to 183.8 from a month ago, continuing its seven-month rise, but the growth also narrowed by 0.34 percentage points from August.

Meanwhile, some new home sales are set to open soon. Kowloon Development's (0034) Manor Hill project in Tseung Kwan O will start its first round of sales on Saturday, which includes 438 homes ranging from 203 sq ft to 428 sq ft.

And Mount Nicholson III at 8 Mount Nicholson Road in The Peak will open six tenders with areas ranging from 4,186 sq ft to 4,601 sq ft from November 4.

Hong Kong house prices fall by the most in nearly a year as volatile stock market hits buying sentiment

Lived-in home prices fell 0.4 per cent in September, the most since October 2020

Prices have fallen for a second consecutive month, after hitting a record high in July

Hong Kong’s lived-in home prices declined by the most in nearly a year in September, after touching a record high in July as buying power was hit because of a retreating stock market, according to property consultants.

Prices slipped 0.4 per cent to 396.3 last month, according to an index published on Wednesday by the Rating and Valuation Department.

It was the steepest fall since October 2020 when it retreated by 0.5 per cent, according to the property consultancy. It was also the second consecutive monthly decline since the index touched a record high of 397.7 in July.

“Property prices have softened slightly after peaking in July,” the consultant said. “Homebuyers have stayed on the sidelines after media reports said that Beijing officials told a number of Hong Kong property tycoons in a closed-door meeting to throw their resources and influence behind the central government’s effort to ease the city’s housing problems.”

New home sales too have cooled in recent days. Sales at Centralcon Properties’ The Arles in Sha Tin flopped on the weekend, with the developer selling less than half of the 338 flats on offer. Wheelock Properties fared even worse, selling only four of 110 units at its Koko Hills project. The flats on sale were the last remaining units in these projects.

“The local residential market has been impacted by the fluctuation in the stock markets and concerns over a worsening economy in the mainland in the short term,” the property consultant said.

Hong Kong’s stock market was among the worst-performing globally in the third quarter. The benchmark Hang Seng Index shed nearly 15 per cent as investor sentiment was affected after Beijing ramped up its crackdown on tech giants in July.

So far this year, home prices have gained 4.3 per cent, with both large and small flats posting increases. For the rest of the year, analysts said they expect prices to rise between 2 per cent and 3 per cent on the back of Hong Kong’s improving economy and employment rate.

“Home prices will increase in the fourth quarter,” the consultant said. “The market for properties valued below HK$10 million (US$1.3 million) will continue to perform well, while those valued over HK$10 million will have fewer transactions.”

The city’s unemployment rate dropped to a new low of 4.5 per cent in the third quarter, the lowest since the coronavirus pandemic began in the early part of 2020.

In August, authorities upgraded their forecast of Hong Kong’s economic growth to between 5.5 per cent and 6.5 per cent for the year, after the economy registered a robust growth of 7.6 per cent in the second quarter.

中環甲廈租務轉好 租金回升


疫情緩和,中環租金經過明顯調整後,近期租務好轉,而租金亦出現低位回升。

據代理行每月商廈租金走勢顯示,中環最優質甲廈呎租約132.6元,近月僅微跌0.1%,而整體中環商廈呎租約113元,按月升2.2%,升幅為各區之冠,亦屬連續兩個月上升,反映租務轉好。另外,尖沙咀、鰂魚涌及東九龍等多區則無起跌。相比之下,邊綫區灣仔及銅鑼灣,租金則出現下跌。

近日中環超甲廈錄得不少新租務個案,多屬擴充及升級,消息指,中環交易廣場三座16樓全層,面積約1.1萬平方呎,以每呎約120元租出。按呎租計,較高峰期回調約2成。新租客為外資機構Lombard Odier,屬瑞士私人銀行。據悉,該機構亦租用置地旗下交易廣場二座39樓,約7,500平方呎單位,如今因業務擴充,租用二座全層單位。

美對冲基金 升級至遮打大廈

另外,中環遮打大廈5樓單位,實用面積約1.5萬平方呎,實用呎租約130元,由於該單位屬物業最低層,租金水平相對較低。新租客為Schonfeld Strategic Advisors,屬美國對冲基金。該機構原租用同區萬宜大廈,面積約8,000平方呎辦公室,如今面積擴充近1倍外,並作出升級。

中資機構亦進行擴充,國際金融中心二期全層單位,面積約2.5萬平方呎,原由投資機構瑞銀租用,集團棄租樓面,最終獲中資資產管理公司安山承接,呎租約130元,而集團總部將由灣仔升級至中環超甲廈。

代理料租金平穩向上

代理指出,目前中環區租金水平,已跌至2010年,亦即金融海嘯後的水平,租金明顯回調後,吸引機構「重投中環」,或作出升級。此外,一些新興行業亦作出升級,如金融科技公司HashKey租用中環交易廣場三座樓面,為該廈首現加密貨幣機構租用。

後市方面,代理認為,隨着中環租金過去2年下跌,與其他地區租金差距收窄,令個別機構有興趣升級,搬至中環,故預計中環租金漸平穩向上。

上月甲廈呎價升0.1%

有代理行發表的報告指出,上月甲廈呎價微升0.1%,而空置率仍偏高。

該行指出,受制於寫字樓空置率仍然高企,今年首9個月整體甲廈售價累積升幅僅約1.8%,表現近乎持平,而今年首9個月整體甲廈租金累積升幅亦僅約2.1%。售價方面,上月整體甲廈售價按月微升0.1%,表現持平,當中以尖沙咀區表現最好,按月上升4.8%,而上環表現較為落後,按月下跌1.2%。

該行代理表示,中港現時仍未能通關,寫字樓需求仍然疲弱,加上2022年至2023年為寫字樓供應高峰期,預料空置率難以於短期內改善。不過隨着寫字樓一手新盤應市,如於月內推出的黃竹坑道23號宏基匯,料會成為市場關注重點,帶動大市成交。

該報告指出,近期市場頻錄大手一手成交,包括上月有「手套大王」之稱的葉建明大手買入億京「觀塘道368號」3層全層單位,面積約28,382平方呎,成交價約4.5億元。而波頓集團亦以1.56億港元購入頂層及天台物業,更取得該廈命名權。

另外,有金融機構近期斥資近12億元大手買入新世界 (00017) 長沙灣荔枝角道888號3層樓面自用,平均呎價約1.75萬元,創項目呎價新高。

甲廈空置率10.3% 創新高

商廈空置率繼續上升,整體甲廈空置率上升至10.3%,屬紀錄新高水平,其中,東九龍高見15.3%,灣仔及銅鑼灣雖然按月輕微回落,但亦錄得10.6%空置率,而上環也上升至9.2%。

物流公司DHL遷出企業廣場五期,其公司原租用企業廣場五期多層單位,其總樓面面積佔約10萬平方呎,推高東九龍指標甲廈空置率上升至15.3%,連帶全港整體空置率上升至10.3%,屬紀錄新高水平。

租金方面,以灣仔甲廈表現較為落後,最新平均呎租僅47.5元,繼8月下跌5.7%後,9月再下挫3.5%,連續3個月成為甲廈租金表現最為落後的地區。而北角甲廈租金按月上升4.9%,成為9月甲廈租金表現最好之地區。

東九龍甲廈 吸引機構省開支

東九龍甲廈租務成交多為機構搬遷,以節省成本。

Nike租觀塘 呎租32

代理指,近日九龍甲廈租務穩定,成交主要集中於呎租約22元或以下項目,而租戶多為電子及製造業等,面積涉及多約1萬餘平方呎。

東九龍甲廈吸引商戶搬遷,九龍灣企業廣場五期 2座23樓全層,面積約1.7萬平方呎,獲一家會計師樓租用,呎租約23元。據悉,該機構原租用北角萬國寶通中心,搬遷可節省開支。

至於較大手租務,觀塘國際貿易中心錄得租務,涉及12樓全層,以及15樓部分樓面,合共約5.2萬平方呎,成交呎租約32元。新租客為NIKE,原租用九龍灣國際交易中心29、30及31樓,屬項目最頂3層,合共約7.8萬平方呎,租約即將到期。是次NIKE轉租ITT,既可提升寫字樓級數,同時亦縮減約3成樓面。

代理認為,整體租務市場向好,預計九龍區租金及租務氣氛亦平穩。

啟德5商地改住宅 增6千伙供應

最快下年度招標 估值700億

為增加短期供應,政府將啟德5幅商業地,改劃作住宅發展,並同步增加住宅地積比率,新增6,000伙私人住宅,最快下年度(2022/23年度)可推出招標,市場估值達700億元。

政府去年開展研究將啟德發展區5幅商業地,改劃住宅用途的可能性。據規劃署及土木工程拓展署最新文件顯示,其中2幅地皮位於前北面停機坪用地,包括2A區2號及3號地,以及2A區4、5B及10號地(曾流標)。

上述2地改劃後,最高住宅地積比為6.5倍,最高非住宅地積比率則為1至1.5倍,而建築物高度限制亦將由80至90米(主水平基準以上,下同)增加到100至125米,但仍維持改劃前梯級式高度外觀,以符合啟德發展城市設計大綱概念,有關改劃可增加共約3,000伙,市場估值每平方呎樓面地價約1.2萬至1.25萬元。

專家:供應增 惟無礙樓價

其餘3幅位於前跑道區,包括4C區4號(高銀投得但取消交易,其後推出但流標)、4C區5號(曾流標)、及4B區5號地,該3幅地改劃後最高住宅地積比率5.7至7倍,最高非住宅地積比率為0.3至0.5倍,其建築物高度限制維持原本95至108米,保持跑道區起伏有致建築物輪廓,並預計改劃可增約3,000伙住宅,市場估值每平方呎地價1.3萬元,而向維港地則1.9萬至2萬元。

有測量師估計,上述5幅商業地改劃後,市場估值高達700億元。對於啟德區將新增6,000伙供應,他認為這或對區內樓價有負面影響,惟實際影響不大,因市區樓的需求仍趨向穩定,相信發展商日後依然會積極競投該地皮。

團結香港基金土地及房屋研究主管葉文祺表示,是次5幅商業地改劃後將悉數發展私人住宅。他又指,由於該5幅用地已為「熟地」,故估計政府最快納入下年度賣地表內。他認為,新增供應對區內地價及樓價影響不算大,「受惠起動九龍東計劃,加上沙中綫快將落成,相信區內樓價及地價會持續造好。」

擬建1500米地下街 貫通港鐵站

此外,政府並在5幅用地內預留空間興建公共房屋發展項目的福利設施,包括安老院、男童院、展能中心、嚴重弱智人士宿舍、綜合職業康復服務中心等。此外,前北面停機坪將興建長約1,500米地下購物街,其中東段長約400米接駁新蒲崗及港鐵啟德站,西段長約1,100米由啟德站伸延至宋皇臺站及九龍城。

而房協早前計劃在土瓜灣道一幅臨海用地興建專用安置屋邨,現為政府、機構或社區和其他指定用途,料改劃後可提供1,100個單位。修訂上述所有項目後,預計住宅單位會增加9,000伙或18%至5.9萬伙,住宅樓面面積則增加16%至約3,617萬平方呎,商業樓面則減少15%至約2,088萬平方呎。

疫下商廈需求跌 轉住宅效益更高

疫情下商業氣氛未回復,而住宅市場仍供不應求。啟德近年新盤銷情不俗,成交價屢創新高,而是次5幅啟德用地由商業轉作住宅用途,不乏海景靚地,除增加短期供應外,亦有望為政府庫房帶來可觀收入。

啟德綜合發展區包括住宅及商業地皮,早年均甚為搶手。商業地方面,南豐2017年以逾246億元,奪得啟德商業地,成為當時商業地王。惟其後推出商業地反應冷淡,更多次出現流標。

市區臨海靚地 財團爭奪對象

商業地皮被看淡,主因環球疫情持續,令寫字樓需求下跌,目前甲廈空置率達10%,涉及近千萬平方呎樓面空置,而未來兩年尚有500多萬平方呎新增供應,要消化也需要一段長時間,難免令財團對新興商業區地皮卻步。

相比下,啟德區住宅甚受歡迎,過去多個大型發展商開售項目,銷情及造價均頗為理想,而增加住宅供應,是政府積極推行政策,故把地皮轉作住宅用途,在效益上較高,合乎目前市況。

另外,是次改劃5幅地皮中,其中3幅屬跑道區全海景地皮,若作住宅發展,相信極具吸引力,以今年啟德跑道區首個新盤維港1號為例,銷情理想,可預計改為住宅,現市況下遠較商業用途吸引。

後市上,啟德前景仍甚吸引,包括港鐵東鐵過海段最快明年中有望通車,屆時由啟德前往紅磡站,可直達港島的會展站和金鐘站,而啟德區內其他設施陸續落成,將令發展更為成熟。加上政府未來新供應集中新界北部,市區新供應有限,目前啟德增添臨海靚地,相信會成為發展商爭奪對象,亦有望增加庫房收入。

上月商廈錄91宗買賣 按月跌23%

受疫情等因素打擊,商廈交投備受壓力。據地產代理行指出,上月商廈錄91宗買賣登記,按月下跌約23%,創過去7個月以來新低,亦為期內首度跌穿百宗水平;該行指出,受連串利淡因素影響,料商廈成交量於短期內於低位徘徊。

創過去7個月新低

綜合土地註冊處及該代理行統計資料顯示,上月商廈錄91宗買賣登記,按月下跌約23%,創過去7個月以來新低,亦為期內首度跌穿百宗水平。該行代理表示,雖然9月份登記量挫逾兩成,惟期間成交金額跌幅僅13%,跌幅相對輕微,當中原因是九月份1億或以上商廈登記大增兩倍所帶動,刺激月內商廈買賣登記金額錄約23.67億,跌幅相對登記量為少。至於,上月最矚目的單一登記項目為荔枝角道888號21樓全層,涉及合約金額逾3.55億;其次為同座商廈18樓全層的逾3.33億登記。

成交金額僅跌13%

按物業價格劃分,在7個價格組別當中,錄得六跌一升,以5000萬至1億元以內組別的56%跌幅最劇烈,月內登記量由前月的9宗降至上月4宗;而2000萬至5000萬元以內組別亦挫46%,只錄得7宗登記。至於登記量最活躍的是介乎500萬至1000萬元以內的組別,月內錄得30宗,惟按月亦跌12%,已相對表現最佳;至於1億元或以上的大額登記,月內漲2倍至6宗。

恒基羅便臣道舊樓批強拍 底價逾5.221億

近年恒基密密在西半山擴充版圖,最新再下一城,收購的羅便臣道94、94A、96號舊樓獲土審處批出強拍令,底價5.221億,對比2019年3月提出強拍申請時,市場估值約3.5354億,高約1.6856億,幅度47.7%。

據土審處文件顯示,恒基持有是次獲批強拍令項目91.304%業權,現餘下2個住宅單位未成功收購。判詞中亦提到,基於現有樓宇樓齡較高,目前大廈維修狀況不佳,而且建築設計在許多方面已經過時,部分設施未能符合現代安全標準和法定要求,加上翻新成本與維修費用不成比例,再者申請人已採取一切合理步驟取得全部業權,故批出強拍令。

較估值高約1.68

上址現為1幢樓高8層舊樓,早於1963年落成入伙,樓齡約58年,地盤約6362方呎,若以地積比約5倍重建,預計可建總樓面約31810方呎。

近年恒基積極擴展西半山王國,據該公司年報顯示,其中羅便臣道94至100號、105號、27E及27F號已完成收購;另外,去年9月亦提出申請強拍88號崇樓;據了解,羅便臣道101號夏蕙苑、羅便臣道99及99A號舊樓等亦在併購中。若上述羅便臣道88至100號舊樓合併重建,整個地盤將擴至約2.5萬方呎,預計可建約12.5萬方呎。

可建總樓面約31810

另外,上水天平路鄰近上水消防局一幅用地,有財團早前向城規會申建一幢不多於4層高分層、共28伙住宅、及提供143個牀位的安老院舍,最新獲規劃署不反對有關申請,今天城規會將舉行會議審議,料可「開綠燈」通過。

據城規會文件顯示,該項目鄰近上水消防局、太平山村;目前屬「鄉村式發展」及顯示為「道路」的地方,申請擬議社會福利設施 (安老院) 及分層住宅,並略為放寬建築物高度限制發展。項目地盤約22529方呎 (包括1324方呎政府土地),住宅總樓面約12196方呎;安老院舍涉建樓面約18363方呎。

「鋪王」鄧成波家族持續減磅沽貨,該家族早前以4800萬沽出觀塘巧明工廠大廈一籃子車位,持貨3年實蝕約600萬離場。

本報早前先報導鄧成波家族沽出觀塘巧明工廠大廈一籃子車位,該買家身分終曝光。據土地註冊處資料顯示,該工廈一樓1至16號車位,於上月底以4800萬售出,買家以公司名義東榮有限公司 (EAST BLOOM LIMITED) 登記,註冊董事為李富榮及李富傳,原業主於2018年7月以4900萬購入上述一籃子車位,以公司名義創怡發展有限公司 (GREAT EAST DEVELOPMENT LIMITED) 持有,註冊董事為鄧耀昇及葉少萍,持貨3年帳面蝕讓100萬,惟據地產代理指出,若計及印花稅及代理佣金等開支,料實蝕約600萬離場。

持貨三年實蝕約600

自鄧成波於年中去世後,該家族連沽逾40項物業,合共套現近98億,其中,最大宗的為屯門東亞紗廠工業大廈,作價約22.4億,該家族早前亦以4.15億沽出灣仔莊士企業大廈18層樓面,包括酒店及寫字樓各9層,帳面獲利約3150萬,物業升值9.2%。

此外,工廈市場亦頻錄買賣個案,市場消息指出,新蒲崗中興工業大廈低層C室,面積10166方呎,以3400萬售出,呎價3344元。

此外,柴灣工業城1座中層5室,面積約1142方呎,以約750萬售出,呎價約6567元。

港鐵東涌項目截收至少五標 本地大發展商為主 業界:補價過高部分退縮

政府持續有序推地增供應,「一鐵一局」續「孭重飛」,港鐵東涌牽引配電站物業項目昨日截標,為該區自2011年後相隔10年來首度再有地皮推出;據昨現場所見,至少截收5份標書,並以本地大型發展商為主。業內人士指,該項目補地價過高,直接影響發展商入標意欲。

該項目上月底截收35份意向書,並於昨天截標,昨日港鐵並未有公布截收標書數目,屬近年罕見。據現場所見,至少獲5份標書,入標財團清一色為本地大型發展商,包括獨資的長實、恒基;而新地、信和及華懋亦有入標,惟未透露屬獨資或合資方式參與。

長實恒基新地信和華懋入標

有業界人士指出,雖然項目地理位置吸引,尤其是將來東涌東站發展,將會大大受惠,有助整個地區發展,惟項目補地價過高,發展商亦難以計數,影響入標意欲,故部分發展商退縮不入標。綜合市場估值,該地皮連同補地價估值約65.77億至75.17億,每方呎約7000至8000元。

資料顯示,該項目坐落於東涌市地段第50號地段,位於文東路及毗鄰東涌北公園,鄰近區內指標屋苑映灣園;將建於東涌牽引配電站及其鐵路設施上方,地盤面積約15.5萬方呎,住宅可建總樓面約93.96萬方呎,可提供1400至1800伙。資料顯示,東涌對上一幅住宅地,為新地於2011年6月以37.7億投得的東涌55A區限呎住宅地,即現時已發展為東環,當時樓面呎價約2758元。

市場消息指出,該項目補地價金額逾47.65億,即每方呎約5072元。據消息人士透露,除補地價外,發展商須就分紅比例向港鐵提出建議,分紅比例不得少於15%,並須以價高者得的「一口價」決定勝負,最少為2.5億,故該筆額外款項成發展商成功突圍的關鍵。

港鐵未有公布入標量

有測量師認為,是次投標反應一般,屬預期之內,而且上述項目位於東涌站及未來的東涌東站之後,交通上並不算太方便,加上項目發展規模較大,更重要是補地價金額過高,發展商亦難以計數,直接影響入標意欲,並不排除有流標風險。

另一測量師認為,項目補地價金額遠高於預期,加上地皮發展規模大,而且涉及總投資額過高,影響發展商入標意欲,不排除有流標風險。

有測量師指出,上述項目發展規模較大,因此資金成本亦較高,預計中至大型發展商獨資或合組財團競投。而且物業須建於東涌配電站上蓋,料景觀開揚,以海景及山景為主,料未來開則以中小型單位為主。相信會受家庭客歡迎,預計該項目日後落成後每方呎可售1.7萬至1.8萬。

建華凌偉業2500萬購灣仔鋪

紀明寶又名紀寶,活躍於市場,資料顯示,紀寶於2018年底以8650萬向海航集團購入銅鑼灣yoo Residence基座地下及1樓鋪位,面積約7351方呎計,同年中,以8850萬沽同區新時代中心頂層全層,面積3454方呎,持貨逾14年,帳面獲利7700萬。

土地註冊處資料顯示,灣仔石水渠街14至24號金勝大廈地下D號鋪於上月底以2500萬成交,買家千萬有限公司登記,董事凌偉材及凌偉業,後者為建華業務管理有限公司集團行政總裁暨執行董事,原業主於1997年以690萬購入,持貨24年帳面獲利1810萬,升值約2.62倍。

建華集團為本港大型豬肉零售商之一,該集團於今年先後以4600萬及5700萬購入大埔太平工業園全層,以及筲箕灣金華街23號地鋪,故該集團於今年以來三度入市,合共涉資約1.83億。

Big hitters stay in fray for Tung Chung tender

MTR Corporation's (0066) Tung Chung traction substation project attracted at least five developers and consortiums to submit tenders, including CK Asset (1113), Henderson Land (0012), Sun Hung Kai Properties (0016), Sino Land (0083) and Chinachem Group.

The railway operator had received 35 expressions of interest for the project last month.

The land premium is expected to be HK$4.77 billion and the value of the site is estimated at HK$7.5 billion - about HK$8,000 per square foot.

The successful bidder will have to share at least 15 percent of the project sales with the MTRC, local media said.

The project is a residential development to be built on top of the Tung Chung traction substation and its associated railway facilities with a maximum residential gross floor area of 87,288 square meters.

The development could provide 1,400 to 1,800 homes.

Meanwhile, CK Asset's #Lyos in Yuen Long's Hung Shui Kiu has revealed the first price list of 88 units with an average per-sq-ft price of HK$15,503 after discounts.

The cheapest flat - a 205 sq ft studio unit - is priced at HK$3.46 million after discount.

Property agent said that the price is "very competitive" as the project is located in Hung Shui Kiu - one of the focal areas in the government's northern metropolis development strategy.

The agent expects that younger customers will dominate the project sales and upon completion, the rent of the project will range from HK$35 to HK$40 per sq ft with an annual rental return rate of 3 percent.

The developer will start to receive checks and open showrooms today.

Also in the primary market, Wheelock Properties' Monaco One in Kai Tak uploaded sales brochures yesterday and will release its first price list next week at the earliest.

There will be a total of 492 flats ranging from 319 sq ft to 1,471 sq ft, with one- and two-room units accounting for 80 percent of them.

There are 99 car parking spaces, 11 motorcycle parking spaces and 68 bicycle parking spaces in the project.

Separately, Henderson Land was given the green light to seek a compulsory sale of a residential site on Robinson Road with a reserve price of HK$522 million.

MTR’s Tung Chung sale draws a tepid response as developers recoil at huge sum needed to build in inconvenient location

The parcel atop MTR’s Tung Chung traction substation has a gross floor area of 929,364 square feet (10,000 square metres), which can house between 1,400 and 1,800 flats that need HK$11.3 billion (US$1.45 billion) to develop

At least five companies submitted bids, out of the 35 that expressed interest to bid last month

A major sale of residential land in Hong Kong drew a tepid response from developers, as six of the seven companies that showed interest last month recoiled at the investments needed, in a possible shift in priorities amid the government’s plan to build a Northern Metropolis near the city’s border with Shenzhen.

A plot in Tung Chung on Lantau Island, where the city’s Disneyland resort and airport are located, received at least five bids, far fewer than the 35 expressions of interest, according to developers who responded to queries by South China Morning Post. MTR Corporation, the city’s subway operator and land owner, had not announced the number of bids as at 6pm.

The parcel, located atop MTR’s Tung Chung traction substation, has a gross floor area of 929,364 square feet (10,000 square metres), which can accommodate between 1,400 and 1,800 flats that require HK$11.3 billion (US$1.45 billion) to develop, surveyors said.

“The collective cold shoulder reflects the high investments needed, coupled with the site’s inconvenient location,” analyst said, adding that unlike other plots located near MTR’s subway stations, the stop nearest to this parcel would not be completed until 2029.


The companies that did submit bids were the Who’s Who of Hong Kong’s property developers: CK Asset Holdings, Sun Hung Kai Properties, Henderson Land Development, Sino Land and the Chinachem Group.

Last month, MTR received expressions of interest from as many as 35 developers, including mainland China-based builders such as Vanke China, Kaisa Group Holdings and China Overseas Land & Investment.

A lot changed in a month. China’s developers, among the world’s most indebted because of their borrow-to-build business model, had been caught in a tightening credit squeeze, as 2021 looks to be another record year of bond defaults.

Last month, as many as 206 land parcels were withdrawn from auctions all over China, as developers that ran afoul of the central bank’s “three red lines” of debt limits ran short on capital to replenish their land bank.

“Due to the heavy capital investment, only the biggest developers took part in the tender while medium-sized [companies] saved their bullets for other sites,” property agent said, who had expected the Tung Chung site to draw 10 bids.

The plot, which is about 10 minutes drive or a 20-minute walk to and from the existing Tung Chung subway station, could be worth between HK$5.6 billion and HK$7.3 billion, including a HK$4.8 billion land premium payable to the government.

The estimated value translates to HK$6,000 to HK$7,800 per square foot, Wong said. After adding the construction cost, the total investment on the site could go as high as HK$12,200 per sq ft, he said.

“Flats will need to sell for HK$18,000 per sq ft to factor in a reasonable profit,” analyst said.

That far exceeds what is currently on the market in the neighbourhood. The average price at the Caribbean Coast, a 19-year-old residential complex by CK Assets next to the MTR traction substation, was at HK$12,400 per sq ft, according to another property agency.

Some developers may also be diverting their attention and resources to the New Territories, where Hong Kong’s Chief Executive Carrie Lam Cheng Yuet-ngor announced the plan to build a Northern Metropolis that could accommodate 2.5 million residents within 20 years.

“The potential growth will be greater there,” agent said.

In a sign of things to come, Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP) paid a record HK$8.61 billion in April for a land parcel in Kwu Tung in the New Territories that could yield 1.2 million sq ft of gross floor area. The developer said it would invest a total of HK$18 billion on the project, inclusive of the land cost.

Not to be outdone, CK Asset on Thursday released the first 88 units at its #Lyos housing project in Hung Shui Kiu in the western part of the New Territories, close to southern China’s Shenzhen city. Apartments at the project range from 205 to 462 sq ft, with an average price of between HK$3.45 million and HK$7.5 million, or HK$13,623 to HK$18,840 per sq ft after a discount of as much as 13 per cent,

A 219 sq ft flat at #Lyos is being offered for HK$4.1 million, or HK$18,840 per sq ft, a record price in the area, where a new rail link is due to connect the neighbourhood with Shenzhen’s burgeoning Qianhai economic zone. The rail link is an extension of the planned HK$62 billion (US$8 billion) Northern Link to cater for the newly announced eightfold expansion of Qianhai.

九建牛池灣重建計劃 補價97

市區歷來最大宗 保留百年建築建5幢住宅

九龍建業 (00034) 牛池灣前聖若瑟安老院重建計劃,經過近20年規劃,終於達成補地價96.58億元,屬於全港歷來第2大額補地價,更屬市區歷來最大宗,每呎樓面地價約4,464元。

前聖若瑟安老院位於清水灣道35號,鄰近牛池灣村及彩虹站,原本屬於安貧小姊妹會經營的聖若瑟安老院,部分建築物已經有近百年歷史,九建在2002年購入後一直進行規劃發展,在2011年獲批出「寓保育於發展」的建築圖則,保留3幢歷史建築並興建5幢住宅大樓,在2014年曾獲批上蓋施工同意書,但因未與政府達成補地價,故此未正式落實發展。

九建昨日發出通告指,接獲政府的原址換地協議,將向政府交還上述項目20.8萬平方呎用地,並補地價96.58億元,以換取原址重批24.1萬平方呎用地,換地完成後,新批用地可供發展成5幢住宅大廈及一個零售購物中心項目。

西貢十四鄉補價159億最高

據資料顯示,今次補地價將會是自2017年11月,新地 (00016) 為西貢十四鄉補地價158.9億元之後,近4年最大宗補地價個案,以市區地段計算,更屬歷來最大宗個案。

如果以項目補地價後總樓面面積216萬平方呎計算,即每平方呎補地價約4,464元水平,扣除商業部分所佔補地價約9.9億元,亦即是住宅部分每平方呎補地價約5,869元,遠低於近年啟德等市區地皮的地價水平,惟考慮到地皮涉及保育因素,以及地皮原有價值 (Before Value),市場普遍預認補地價屬於合理水平。

有測量師稱,相信地價合理,因有保育原素,加上當區以資助房屋為主,近期周邊最新推的新盤已經是安達臣道新盤,認為樓價對比啟德較低也屬合理。發展商在今年中向城規會再申請新方案,擬興建5幢逾60層高摩天住宅大廈,保留屬於歷史建築的別墅及宿舍部分,將提供5,005個單位,現時方案增加1.5倍,現有待審批。

按照以每呎建築成本約5,000元計算,計及「10%發水樓面」、發展商2成利潤、8成實用率計算,粗略估算落成後實用呎價將在1.36萬元起,相較之下,現時地皮周邊私樓如清水灣道8號 (15年樓齡) 近期二手實用呎價約1.7萬元。

近期發展商補地價步伐加快,包括早前香港興業 (00480) 為愉景灣項目補地價52.4億元,將建逾1,400伙,而太古地產 (01972) 則為柴灣中巴車廠補地價45億元,將建800伙。

Kowloon Development to pay HK$9.66 billion premium in St Joseph’s Home for the Aged land exchange

The deal represents the largest land premium paid since 2017

Kowloon Development has sought to redevelop the St Joseph’s Home site for years before land exchange

Kowloon Development has agreed to exchange land it had hoped to redevelop for years on the site of the former St Joseph’s Home for the Aged in Clear Water Bay, and will pay the largest land premium in four years for another site in Kowloon.

The property developer said two of its subsidiaries agreed to surrender a 19,335 sq m (208,120 sq ft) lot at the historic site to the government and would pay a premium of HK$9.66 billion (US$1.24 billion) for a larger lot of 22,373 sq m with a 50-year lease term, according to a stock exchange filing on Friday.

Kowloon Development said it plans to build five residential towers on the new site over a retail shopping centre.

“With the development of the regranted lot, it is expected to bring synergy to the company’s property portfolio, enhance its income revenue and yield long-term return for the shareholders of the company,” Kowloon Development said in the filing. “The company’s development land bank and foundation will also be further broadened and strengthened as a result.”

The new lot will yield a maximum of 2.16 million sq ft of total gross floor space, with the land premium translating into HK$4,464 per sq ft.

The announcement did not specify where the new lot is, just that it is identified as New Kowloon Inland Lot No. 6458. A search of the city’s Land Registry late Friday did not immediately produce a location for the lot.

It is the largest land premium since Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP), one of the city’s biggest home builders, agreed to pay a record premium of HK$15.9 billion in 2017 to build more than 4,700 villas and medium-rise flats on converted farmland in Sai Kung

Kowloon Development had sought for years to redevelop the historic site of the St Joseph’s Home for the Aged near the Choi Hung MTR station in Ngau Chi Wan, citing it as one of its three major projects in Hong Kong in its interim financial report in September.

The St Joseph’s Home was operated by the Little Sisters of the Poor and was one of the first organisations dedicated to caring for the city’s elderly. It served as a home for refugees who fled the Japanese invasion of China in the 1930s.

Planning permission was first granted for the site in 2003, requiring the developer to submit preservation plans for three historic buildings on the site: the Villa, the Gate House and Dormitory A of the former St Joseph’s Home. The Villa was originally owned by Chan Keng-yu, one of the founding directors of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

In 2010, those three buildings were classified as grade 2 historic buildings by the city’s Antiquities Advisory Board.

The issue of the land premium at the historic site had lingered for years despite foundation works and traffic assessments being conducted at the site.

In its interim report, Kowloon Development said land premium procedures at the site were “in progress” and the expected date for completion of the project was “to be determined”.

Hong Kong’s homebuyers make a beeline for Manor Hill’s tiny flats, shrugging off record average price for Lohas Park area

Kowloon Development sold 326 of the 438 tiny flats at its Manor Hill project in Lohas Park as of 9pm, according to sales agents

The flats, measuring between 203 and 428 square feet, were offered at an average price of HK$20,921 (US$2,690) per square foot, setting a record for the area

Hong Kong’s homebuyers snapped up a collection of tiny flats on offer over the weekend at Lohas Park in Kowloon’s Tseung Kwan O area, shrugging off the record price that was 30 per cent more than the most recent launch in the neighbourhood.

Kowloon Development sold 326 of the 438 tiny flats at its Manor Hill project in Lohas Park as of 9pm, property agents said. The flats measure between 203 square feet (18.9 square metres) and 428 sq ft, with prices from HK$3.88 million (US$499,000) going up to HK$9.2 million. The average price of HK$20,921 (US$2,690) per square foot was a record, making Manor Hill the most expensive new launch at Lohas Park.

Still, the tiny flats required smaller capital outlay than larger apartments, a key consideration that attracted many buyers on the first rung of the property ladder or young couples, property agent said.

“We expected sales to be good because of its low entry price, and the project is attractive for young buyers as Lohas Park is becoming popular, with an MTR [subway] station and a shopping centre,” the agent said, adding that some customers were keen to fork out HK$13 million for two single-bedroom flats for investment. “About 80 per cent of the [buyers] are young people. Half of them would receive financial help from their parents.”

The modest success of Manor Hill underscores Hong Kong’s real estate bull run, which has gathered momentum in recent months in tandem with the city’s economic recovery and low interest rate.

The buying momentum for new homes is likely to improve in the remainder of the year, the agent said, and the sales of newly completed abodes may rise to 1,800 units in October, increasing to 2,000 next month, the agent said.

Manor Hill is being offered at a price range of between HK$18,972 per square foot and HK$24,315 per sq ft after a 3 per cent discount. That made it about 30 per cent higher than the LP10 housing project by Nan Fung Group and the subway operator MTR Corporation in the same neighbourhood.

This weekend’s launch reversed the tepid reception the previous Saturday when Centralcon Properties sold fewer than half of the 338 flats at The Arles project in Sha Tin, while Wheelock Properties found buyers for only four of the 101 apartments at Koko Hills in Nam Tin.

Home sales in Hong Kong have picked up as “confidence returned to the market at levels not seen in years,” another agent said.

“The market and investor sentiment has softened in the last two weeks” at the start of the year’s final quarter, but the longer-term outlook remained very strong, the agent said.

“Hong Kong property is reclaiming its status as an attractive asset class,” agent said. “Stabilising business, market liquidity, and low rates home mean owners willing to hold for the next 5 to 10 years can be assured of secure capital growth.”
