Abstract: Abstract The Hong Kong Housing Authority (HKHA) is a statutory body responsible for providing subsidized housing in Hong Kong, which accommodates about 50% of the population. Subsidized housing mainly includes Public Rental Housing (PRH) flats, Home Ownership Scheme (HOS) flats, and Private Sector Participation Scheme (PSPS) flats. PRH flats are intended for rental to the lowest income groups, while HOS and PSPS flats are for sale to middle income groups. Since subsidized housing plays such an important role in Hong Kong, this study will examine the relationship between the supply of subsidized housing and private housing's market performance. Two hypotheses are set. One is that an increase in the supply of subsidized housing would lower the price of private housing. The other is that the negative effect of PRH supply on housing prices is stronger than that of HOS/PSPS because PRH offers greater subsidies and involves a larger segment of the population, despite its more stringent entry criteria. Regression analysis was used to test the hypotheses. Quarterly data from 1980 to 2002 was collected. Since property prices are likely to be affected by factors other than the supply of subsidized housing, variables such as rental levels, unemployment rates, interest rates, and private housing completion were included as controls. The regression results showed that increasing the supply of PRH and HOS/PSPS produced a negative effect on private housing prices. Moreover, the negative effect of PRH is significant at the 5% level, while that of HOS/PSPS is not. This may imply that controlling the supply of PRH, rather II than HOS/PSPS, is a more effective way for the government to influence private housing's market performance, given that the costs of controlling both are similar. This can be done by altering the supply of PRH, adjusting the subsidized rental rates, or changing the entry criteria. The other implication of the study is that the government may also take measures to drive the demand for private housing, because rental levels, unemployment rates, and interest rates are significant factors affecting private housing prices. A fundamental recovery of the economy is important for stimulating the general public's demand for property investment. A deep understanding of the implications from different types of public housing and other demand factors should help policymakers formulate better policies for the housing market.

Abstract: Up to 2014, the housing affordability rating of this island reaches 17 and top in a survey covering 378 regions globally. The rating reveals the private housing market in Hong Kong is problematic and distance from achievement of an adequate housing market. Surprisingly, the local government has been performing a major role in the housing market since mid of 20th century. Given the continuous manipulation to the domestic market by the local government, why is the market still denounced twisted? In the paper, different government policies and measurements are examined for its effectiveness on the price of the private residential market. This research aims to investigate and compare the effectiveness between the fiscal and monetary policy applied by the Hong Kong Government on the housing market. In order to achieve an objective and clear analysis, quantitative approach is adopted in this attempt of research. Multiple regression model is built and macro-economic data is input to the model to examination the correlation. The remaining part of this study tries to analyze and explain the result in the model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1999, this volume examines the issue that, in the last two decades, the housing system in Hong Kong has witnessed a slow but consistent transition from a tenure dominated by public rental housing to one dominated by private home ownership. This book seeks to explain the unique social organization of home ownership in contemporary Hong Kong. Specifically, the book deals with the genesis of home ownership from three areas: housing histories, family culture and capital gains from home transactions. It is agreed that extreme deprivations in housing conditions in early lives, a strong family culture of mutual help as well as unprecedented capital gains, all contribute towards explaining the complex nature of home ownership growth. In conclusion the book suggests that with China regaining sovereignty after July 1997, the social organization of home ownership will be further complicated by more internal migrations from other parts of China, making housing problems even more acute.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'The real estate economy of Hong Kong is one of the most dynamic and sophisticated in the world, and has contributed greatly to the spectacular development of this vibrant city. More importantly, at a time of rapid globalization of the world economy, it is possibly the best model of the behaviour of an advanced real estate industry operating in an open economy. Hong Kong is thereforeof interest to analysts and policymakers everywhere, not least because of Hong Kong's political reintegration with China in 1997. With this in mind, the authors have managed to capture the key economic features of the private residential real estate market in Hong Kong in this compact volume. They have identified and highlighted critical institutions that contribute to the success and economic factors which shape the dynamics of all sectors of the real estate industry in Hong Kong. This book is essential reading for market analysts, policymakers, students and international readers with an interest in comparative analysis of real estate markets and institutions.'

Download or read book Homeownership in Hong Kong written by Chung-kin Tsang and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-24 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies the cultural framework of the connections between homeownership and social stability in Hong Kong. In the post-war period, homeownership became the most preferable housing choice in developed societies, such as Australia, Britain, Japan, Spain, and the United States. In the financialization era, its proliferation aggregated enormous wealth and debt in the housing and mortgage markets, affecting social stability by creating inequality and housing unaffordability. Hong Kong is the most extreme example of this among developed societies – in recent years, the city has made international headlines both for its housing problem and its social instability. By studying the history of homeownership in Hong Kong over a period of four decades, Chung-kin Tsang proposes that homeownership is inseparable from the social imagination of the future, conceptualizing this framework as "hope mechanism". This perspective helps trace the connections between ‘House Buying’ as a hope mechanism – one which is central to subject formation, life goals, and temporal mapping for socially shared life planning – and social stability. Given its unique approach, specifically its use of "hope" as an analytical category, this book will prove to be a useful resource for scholars in economic culture and financialization, and Asian Studies, especially those working on the cultural, sociopolitical, and economic history of Hong Kong.
