Recent Changes
\n<\/strong>
\nAccording to a report by Our Hong Kong Foundation, Hong Kong’s home prices may retreat from 2023 until 2025, amid an expected supply surge of about 20,200 private homes [3][4]. In addition, a Natixis report predicts that the city’s property prices could plummet 25% from its previous peak in late 2021 before it starts to recover. The slump is expected to deepen by 12% in 2023, and subsequently by just 2% in 2024 [5]\n

Conclusion
\n<\/strong>
\nIn conclusion, the real estate market of Hong Kong has experienced significant changes over the past five years. While the real residential property prices and the Hong Kong House Price Index have been on the rise, the private domestic price index shows that the house prices have been fluctuating. Recent reports suggest that the market may experience a significant drop in prices in the coming years [6].<\/p>\n
