The Hong Kong Differential Assessment Authority announced that in August 2026, the private residential sales price index was reported at 320.5 points, a slight increase of 0.06% over the previous month, reversing the previous monthly decline. Compared to the historical high of 398.1 points in September 2021, the current property price is still down 19.49%. Chen Haichao, head of the Ricard Real Estate Research Department, said that after a month of brief resurgence, the property market has quickly stopped falling and stabilized as economic performance improves, the stock market rebound, and demand continues, and the future market trend is still optimistic. Looking ahead to September, Chen Haichao believes that from late August to early September, new listings continue to be popular, and that top tickets and sell-outs are not uncommon, which can support the continued stability of property prices. Even though the US has begun to raise interest rates, Hong Kong has yet to follow. As long as interest rates do not rise rapidly or sharply, I believe it will not crash the property market; at most, it will only slow down the upward trend. Property prices are expected to rise within 0.5% in September, and are expected to fall 0.28% throughout the third quarter. However, with the rebound in the fourth quarter, property prices will still rise by at least 10% throughout the year.
