Hong Kong Commercial Property Investment Jumps 129% to $3.1 Billion, Leading Asia-Pacific

1 articles · Updated · South China Morning Post · Aug 10

$3.1 billion of Hong Kong commercial property investment changed hands in the second quarter, more than doubling from a year earlier and making the city Asia-Pacific’s fastest-growing market.
JLL attributed the 129% rise to stronger retail and office transactions, a low comparison base and investors targeting assets that can deliver immediate yield stabilisation.
Office deals were notably supported by assets under receivership, helping keep the market highly active despite macroeconomic uncertainty and a complicated interest-rate backdrop.
Hong Kong still outpaced other regional gainers including Singapore, up 108%, and Australia, up 82%, while the second-quarter rebound lifted the city’s first-half investment growth to 90%.
