drbubb Posted April 25, 2013 Report Share Posted April 25, 2013 "What can you get for under $3 million?" It took us a long search to find it... You can get a nice modernised 2BR flat in an older building (just less than 40 years old) about 5 minutes walk from Olympic station in Tai Kok Tsui - and then rent it for more than 4% Gross Rental yield.

After all, where are you going to put your money? I really do not get why anyone would pay $12,000 gross to buy an Old Flat in Taikoo Shing, when they can buy something nicer than that for under $7,000 in TKT. In the long run, which is going to be the better location?? If you are willing to have a longer commute (than TKT) to HK prime locations, I might also suggest looking in Yuen Long.

But not on the West Kowloon side, where less convenient CC outperformed PkAve by a large amount. However, CC fell by more than the other Estates during 2013 so far. I say: "No clears." But maybe the "convenient" location (near XRL) and modernity of the Park Avenue, will allow it to outperform as we approach the completion of the XRL in 2-3 years time. /see: http://hongkong.asia...nvenient-tk-fh/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbubb Posted April 30, 2013 Report Share Posted April 30, 2013 In reaction to: Loyd, centadata at 100 means 9K-9.5K psf in Mid levels.. which is still very high.. for a 3% mortgage rate.. to make a decent return.. 100 is not out of reach.. (Was posted): I would expect some strong buying if Mid-Levels hits $10,000 psf. And so if gdep's calculations are right, then maybe above CCL-100. I note that Taikoo Shing is now / Div. by CCLI : Gross : $11,878 / 118.71 = 100.06 Net --- : $13,603 / 118.71 = 114.59 ===== That suggests that TS will be almost exactly $10,000 psf-Gross, if CCLI hits 100. ... and maybe $11,459 psf-Net at the same time. Is Mid-Levels really just 5-10% above a... er, "tired" place like Taikoo Shing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drbubb Posted May 1, 2013 Report Share Posted May 1, 2013 In response to a comment on AX: "OTP today you can buy property in Mid level at 12-13k psf range.. around 5-10% premium to Taikoo Shing." I don't doubt this one bit - But I do wonder how representative a 5-10% premium would be for all of Mid-Levels? . Here are some figures for some Benchmark MId-Levels estates, as appear on the Centaline Index. . Week : CCLI--- : RobinPl: Tregun : Dynast: Clovell: MLave // TaikSh. (all Psf, Gross) ==== . 04/21: 118.71: 16,036 : 19,788 : 24,101 : 23,712: 20,909 / 11,878 / CCLI : 1.000 - : 135.01 : 166.69: 203.02: 199.75 : 176.14 / 100.06 . Using the average of these Four Properties, ML is a 76% premium to Taikoo Shing. . So if TK hits $10,000 at CCLI-100, then ML properties (ave.of 4) would not be at $10,000, or like: $17,600 psf. And ML Gross-psf prices will not hit $10,000 until CCLI falls far below that. I calculate that CCLI would need to come down to maybe 57. That's an unlikely prospect IMHO. . Before leaving this, I also want to look at prices expressed in Per SF, Net - which follows: . Week : CCLI--- : RobinPl: Tregun : Dynast: Clovell: MLave // TaikSh. (all Psf, Net) ==== . Efficiency----- : 82.24%: 78.96%: 78.27%: 83.50%: 80.61%/ 87.31% 04/21: 118.71: 19,500 : 25,062 : 30,791 : 28,399: 25,938 / 13,603 / CCLI : 1.000- : 164.27 : 211.12 : 259.38 : 239.23 : 218.50 / 114.59 . . Where's the Top? I believe that there is an 18 year cycle operating in the HK property market, and I do not see a peak until 2015-2017. If true, we may see at least one more wild ride to the upside before HK property rolls over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drbubb Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 HOW SWEET IT WAS... (from OTP at AX) (sometimes you don't know how good you have it until you fall on hard times.) I just had a very frank chat with one of the local agents here, whom I have know for a few years. He was moaning about the state of the market, and after hearing some figures from him, I can understand why. He is one of the older agents, who has worked in the Olympic station area for a long time, at least back to 2008 when I first moved here. He said the Sales and Purchase market is "almost dead." Normally, he would expect perhaps 100 or more Sales transactions in a month, for the whole of the Olympic station area. In April, there were only 9 (!) transactions. So far in May, there are only 4. This really isn't enough for the agents to live on, and many agents are now being let go. The rest are under big pressure, and do not see how and when it will improve. I asked him about Rentals. He said that part of the market is "still okay", but it doesn't pay very well. On a $20,000 per month rent, they make only half a month: $10,000 commission. And that part of the market is also now a bit slow. A good month would be 150 rental transactions for modern buildings in the area, and last month was probably just over 100 (it's a slow time of year as well, I believe.) The main problem is that tenants now have a lot of choice, and so can be slower to make their minds up. When flat owners saw the market was slowing down, those with vacant flats for sale decided to rent their flats out instead. So there is now an unusually large supply of flats to rent. Will rents come down? He said that was possible, at least until the supply tightened. But there wasn't any significant drop in rents yet. (Note the extra supply at recently completed" Park Summit and Coronation seems to have been absorbed pretty well at this time.) I am sympathetic, since every honest person should be able to make a living, and I know this guy works hard. I do expect that some agents are going to start getting pretty aggressive with sellers to lower their price, because some are truly desperate.

drbubb Posted May 11, 2013 Report Share Posted May 11, 2013 CORRELATION: Between Rents and Prices If you can't sell (because the market price for selling is going down), what you do is hold and rent at a higher price (unless you have to sell to recover some losses etc etc etc)...That's why it is always fun to see all those people hoping for the market to drop ...while in many cases, it means (at least in the beginning) higher rent... Nice idea, but easily disproved by checking reality. Pretty clear that rent rises when property prices rise... and when property prices fall, so does rent. Clear that this happened in both 2008 and 2011 in the last slight property price declines. And both fell for around six years after 1997.

drbubb Posted May 12, 2013 Report Share Posted May 12, 2013 VERY SLOW - But not so slow as reported The previous information that I got from an agent in the TST / Olympic station area and reported here was wrong. I met another agent over the weekend and she told me that she did not believe the slowdown in sales was nearly as much as I had been told. So I said I would check. And I have done that now. From Modern buildings in the Olympic area the Average for 2012 was 80 Sales transactions per month. Sales are running far below that now, but nothing like as low as the first agent had told me. Following summarises the data. Which has basically been slowing since the beginning of the year, and more since the "double whammy" in late February. In April, the Centaline data showed 22 Sales, down 72% from the 2012 average, not the 90%+ I had been told by the first agent.

drbubb Posted July 13, 2013 Report Share Posted July 13, 2013 Hong Kong Home Prices Decline Most Since 2008, Centaline Says Hong Kong home prices fell the most in four-and-a-half years in the week ended July 7, on concerns that interest rates will begin to rise if the U.S. Federal Reserve phases out its monetary easing program later this year. Prices fell 1.8 percent during the week, the most since November 2008, according to an index compiled by Centaline Property Agency Ltd., the city’s biggest closely held realtor by agent numbers. Home transactions fell to the lowest since 1996 in the first half after the government doubled stamp duty taxes on property deals in February to quell concerns that an asset bubble is forming. Homebuyers’ sentiment was further damped by signals that interest rate will soon begin to increase as the U.S. economic recovery gather strength. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-07-12/hong-kong-home-prices-decline-most-since-2008-centaline-says.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two properties (Sorrento and The Arch), were hovering around peak prices, while The Waterfront was more than 3% ABOVE the price at 3/17, when the Centaline Index hit its peak. Two properties in the Olympic area were mixed with Park Avenue outperforming the index since year-end by almost 4%, but Island Harborview, which is a longer walk from the XRL, down more, but only -2.8% off year-end prices.
