Although it is late, it is never too late for a good meal. Direct News believes that the legislative spirit of Article 23 of the Basic Law of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region takes "timeliness, timeliness and effectiveness" into consideration. Since it is up to the Hong Kong SAR to legislate on its own to fulfill its local responsibility for safeguarding national security, "consciousness, self-examination, and self-improvement" from the local level is the best legislative catalyst. In a word, it is precisely because the Hong Kong SAR has experienced ups and downs in the 26 years since its return to the motherland that it has been able to form a public opinion foundation that has learned from the pain, united as one, and given full support. The persuasive guidance and sincere words of the elders are often not as profound as the lessons learned by the young people themselves. Although

Only with the sincere cooperation between the SAR Legislative Council, the Security Bureau and the Department of Justice, and the full support of patriots and Hong Kong people from all walks of life, can we realize the common vision of "getting the day sooner" and "no delay or haste".

The trading volume of the Hong Kong property market has rebounded significantly after the "removal of spicy measures"

When the Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong SAR Government, Paul Chan Mo-po, announced the 2024/2025 budget at the end of last month, he announced the cancellation of all "hot policies" in the property market. This means that all residential property transactions will no longer have to pay additional stamp duty, buyer's stamp duty and new residential stamp duty. Taking a property with a total price of tens of millions (Hong Kong dollars, the same below) as an example, after the "removal", the tax paid by non-Hong Kong permanent residents has been reduced from at least 3 million yuan to 370,000 yuan.

The Hong Kong real estate market has returned to the era of "zero hot deals", and the cost of buying a house has dropped significantly. During the period after the "no hot deals" were withdrawn, the transaction volume of both new and second-hand houses has rebounded significantly, and most of the home buyers are mainland buyers.Experts analyze that the Hong Kong housing market may siphon off part of the purchasing power of cities in the Greater Bay Area such as Shenzhen and Guangzhou in the short term. If the housing market can become popular as a result, it may in turn lead to the stabilization and recovery of the housing market in the Greater Bay Area.

Many Hong Kong real estate agents said that although the Sheung Shui and Fanling areas belong to the north of Hong Kong, they are also located in the planned northern metropolitan area, so many mainland buyers also come to inquire. Since the "removal of hot property", there have been nearly 40 to 50 second-hand housing transactions in Sheung Shui and Fanling areas. Some real estate agents said that at the peak, it was equivalent to "doing one month's business in four days." After the Hong Kong real estate market "removed from the heat", the transaction volume at least doubled compared with the same period before the "removal from the heat", and most of the buyers were mainland buyers.

The Country Garden Longbi real estate in Kowloon City has welcomed a large number of mainland buyers after it was completely "removed". According to data provided by Longbi Real Estate, since the project went on sale in 2022, about 30% of the buyers have been new arrivals to Hong Kong, and after the comprehensive "removal of spicy food", this proportion has increased to 70%.

Among them, the number of inquiries from mainland buyers about buying properties in Hong Kong has increased 40 to 50 times, and many of them come through channels such as the "Talent Scheme".

In Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong, a mainland intermediary who is familiar with the Hong Kong market said, "Judging from the current situation, most mainland buyers will consider houses with a price of less than 8 million Hong Kong dollars. This part of the demand is semi-owner-occupied and semi-investment. It is expected that this After the wave of customers has been digested, the transaction volume of the entire market may have cooled down. In addition, although the Hong Kong property market is at a low level, some mainland buyers are still worried after taking into account the holding costs."
