Event Details
AmCham's "2024 HK Residential Outlook" is scheduled for 5 pm on February 29th – just one day after the Hong Kong Budget announcement. (Will HK's Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, have any incentives to spur a recovery in the sector?!)
This event will gather industry experts to discuss the current and future dynamics of private and social housing in Hong Kong, with a particular focus on government policy implications and emerging niche areas such as talent housing.
Social Housing:
Hong Kong hosts the world's largest social housing sector, with 30% of its population living in state-run rentals. The housing crisis persists, with the average waiting time for a public housing unit being 5.6 years. Is it simply a problem of insufficient supply, or are there more fundamental flaws in the current system?
Private Housing:
In the midst of a slow economy and a stagnant private housing market, what are the latest government policies for the next move? How is the supply and inventory of unsold/new units faring? With the talent and youth schemes in Hong Kong, will this niche talent housing market bring new opportunities to stakeholders with the support of government initiatives?
Important notes:
• Enjoy a cozy discussion close to the speakers with a beer or a glass of wine in hand.
• Feel free to jump in with questions in the middle of the presentation; we encourage instant interactions before you forget your questions!
