Bu Shaoming, chief executive of Wachovia's property and housing department, said that property prices in Hong Kong rose first and then returned this year, rising repeatedly from a low at the end of January to an all-time high in August. Since then, the fight for high positions has fallen by about 2.5%, and it is still up nearly 6% so far this year. In terms of trading, the volume of first and second hands rose this year, the number of second-hand residential registration reached a 9-year high, and the amount of registration reached a 24-year high.

He expects that with the support of the control of the epidemic in Hong Kong and the expected customs clearance between China and Hong Kong, it is estimated that the new market sales will remain strong. Next year, the volume of first-hand sales is expected to reach the highest level since the first-hand sales Ordinance came into effect in 2013, with sales estimated to reach 265 billion yuan and the number of cases reaching 20, 000. The amount of second-hand registration is also expected to reach the highest level in 25 years. Property prices are estimated to rise by 5% to 10% for the whole year.

With regard to the launch of the new market next year, Mr Bu Shaoming estimates that the total number of new units in Hong Kong Island, Kowloon and the New Territories will be about 31800, 3000 on Hong Kong Island, 14200 in Kowloon and 14500 in the New Territories. Among them, there may be 7000 in Yuen long and Tin Shui Wai and 5000 in Kai Tak. Phases III and IV of Wong Chuk Hang Station may also be launched. The actual volume is expected to be about 60%, that is, more than 18000 groups.

In addition, Liu Jiahui, chief analyst of Wachovia property, mentioned that at present, the number of housing estates in the "Wachovia property Price Index" is 100. In view of the increasing importance of new development areas and new housing estates to the property market, the number of housing estates with a property price index will increase to 138.
