美聯指樓市「非理性亢奮」 中原﹕額外印花稅 樓盤價升量跌

美聯指樓市「非理性亢奮」 中原﹕額外印花稅 樓盤價升量跌
 (明報)2011年3月1日 星期二

【明報專訊】兩大龍頭物業代理行中原和美聯對當前熾熱的樓市都感到事不尋常,美聯集團    指樓市已處於「非理性亢奮」狀態,故放棄較早前今年全年樓價升11%的預測,暫時「唔估」樓價升跌。中原集團則認為,政府推出額外印花稅後,令業主更不願放售,造成「價升量跌」的畸形發展。

放棄再估樓市升跌

美聯高級執行董事黃錦康表示,額外印花稅令業主更不願放盤,用家唯有以超高價入市,現時樓市已屬「非理性亢奮」。「預算案中公布每年料提供約3.54萬伙私樓應市,遠較1999至2004年期間、每年平均私樓供應約26,883伙為多,當時已因供應大增令樓價急轉直下,所以市場人士別當政府『無料到』。」

他又稱,每年逾3萬伙的供應有機會供大於求,若今年突然加息,後果可能比1997年八萬五更嚴重。

新鴻基    不同意:買家深思熟慮

中原亞太區董事總經理陳永傑指出,額外印花稅推出後,二手盤源屬近10年新低,但由於內地資金湧入,加上通脹持續,令香港物業市場需求不斷上升,造成二手價升量跌的畸形發展。

不過,他與美聯唱反調,稱預算案所提出的3.5萬伙新供應並非市場實質供應,加上現時購買力已不能與97年同日而語,故政府難重蹈八萬五覆轍。

就美聯指樓市「非理性亢奮」,新鴻基地產    (0016)副主席郭炳江昨在集團業績會上說,這與事實有出入。他說:「買家不是掃貨那種形式,係逐間逐間咁睇,傾好耐,我覺得佢口地係深思熟慮 。」

郭炳江表示,以最近售出的樓盤為例,超過九成以上買家都是香港人,可見內地資金對本地樓市影響有限。新鴻基地產副主席郭炳聯說,現時買家都是實用買家及長期投資者為主,加上有額外印花稅的措施,相信市場上短期炒家不多。

鄭家純促復建居屋

新世界發展    (0017)董事總經理鄭家純昨在業績會上表示,政府應制定長遠及連貫性的房屋發展政策,讓市場知道未來數年的供應量,畢竟就算賣地,亦需數年時間才可供應市場。他建議政府應取回土地供應的主動權,如定期賣地,並且希望政府能復建居屋及多建公屋,以解決中產及低收入人士住屋需求。他預計預算案出台後,由於沒有打壓樓市措施,中短線樓價及交投將會增加。

匯控(0005)行政總裁歐智華昨於業績公布會上亦表示,內地買家來港置業,或會衝擊本地樓市,但現時內地經濟仍保持快速增長,因此內地買家購買力仍然旺盛。他亦指出,雖然港府已推出冷卻措施,如額外印花稅等,但現時仍很難估計樓價何時轉向。

山頂豪宅天比高每呎9.6萬天價易手內地富豪 亞洲區最高呎價紀錄

天比高每呎9.6萬天價易手
 (星島)2011年6月9日 星期四 
(綜合報道)


(星島日報    報道)賣地前夕,山頂豪宅售價續攀上巔峰,菱電持有的山頂「天比高」最後一間洋房剛以每呎九萬六千三百六十二元天價成交,涉資八億元,成交呎價不但刷新全港豪宅新高,更晉身亞洲區最高呎價的紀錄,買家是市場炙手可熱的內地富豪。

  對於上址以天價成交,菱電副主席胡亮明昨日接受本報訪問時表示,該物業位處地段較特殊,擁有三百六十度迴環海景,望維港及南區景致,在本港可觀賞到上述景致的獨立屋相信少之又少,基本上「賣咗之後買唔番!」,他以「少少不捨得賣」來形容今番賣樓情況,不過,由於集團早前剛購入山頂普樂道八號法國    總領事館獨立屋,有它「填補空缺」(日後可發展類似的罕有獨立屋),故最終才願意割愛,否則絕對不會沽售。


  胡亮明:「少少不捨得賣」


  他並指出,早前拍賣場上有一幅名畫都以四億元成交,而同樣絕無僅有的這類超級豪宅,升值力自然大增。對於有地產界指,發展商曾以意向價十億元放售該洋房,胡亮明回應:「我們由頭到尾都從沒有放售物業,只不過是市場代理自行叫價搵客,今番是買家主動出價,並且只是在睇樓一次情況下便拍板。」雖然胡氏指未知買家身分,不過,有代理透露,上述洋房買家來自國內富豪。


  睇樓一次即扑槌


  上述為普樂道十號洋房,面積八千三百○二方呎,造價九萬六千三百六十二元易手,涉資約八億元,該洋房並設有花園、私人泳池及車房。菱電已收取一成訂金,成交日期為八月十二日。據悉該項目僅餘的十二號屋,將由周星馳    保留自用。


  菱電於上月底,斥五億八千萬元購入普樂道法國總領事館獨立屋,佔地約二萬二千四百四十四方呎,地積比為零點五倍,可重建樓面約一萬一千二百二十二方呎,平均樓面呎價約五萬一千多元,物業外觀更仿似一座小堡壘,外貌及內裏皆有獨特建築風格,景觀望維港及南區雙景,惟物業已被列為二級歷史建築物,重建亦受到一定限制。


  收訂一成 八月成交


  事實上,菱電與周星馳合作,在二○○四年三月以三億二千萬元購入天比高項目地皮,並發展為四幢洋房,當時樓面呎價一萬四千六百萬元,重建後四幢洋房,採前後排式設計,兩高兩低,每座樓高三層,前排為普樂道十六及十八號屋,後排兩座為十號及十二號。從事電子業務的商人朱慧恒於○七年中,以三億元購入十八號洋房,面積約七千三百方呎,平均呎價四萬一千元。


  內地富豪一擲八億


  及後於○八年九月,天比高十六號示範屋,由百營環球資源主席兼行政總裁施展望以三億八千萬購入,面積七千二百二十九方呎,每呎逾五萬二千五百元,最終因金融海嘯,在○九年七月取消交易,及後於九月份,該物業再由英國    商人以三億五千萬元購入。可見豪宅價格急升的情況下,天比高洋房價格已較兩年前「翻一番」。


  另外,市場消息指,南區大潭玫瑰園一幢單號屋,面積三千九百六十方呎,以一億二千五百萬元沽,呎價三萬一千五百餘元。

為子女置業 一代人供兩代樓

為子女置業 一代人供兩代樓
 (經濟日報)2011年5月17日 星期二

【經濟日報專訊】樓價破97年顛峰,人工卻追不上,愈來愈多70後和80後要靠父母才能圓買樓夢。有地產代理指現時近一半年輕置業人士,都由父母付首期,父母一代人供兩代樓愈見普及。

不過可憐父母心未必獲感恩,有獲免費單位的兒子嫌棄500呎太小,賣掉換大樓,傷了母親心,該母親歎謂:「這一代媽媽不易做!」

「我假假口地也是專業人士,沒理由住這裏…… 」70後兒子嫌樓價太低、衝口而出的這句話,這一次傷透林太(化名)的心。

子不懂感恩 傷透慈母心

林太第二次感心碎,是兒子說:「即使現在沒買樓,我們兩夫婦暫時租樓住,儲錢一段時間,沒有妳幫我們也是買得起的!」

工廠女工出身的林太坦言這一代媽媽不易做,因為她一代人供兩代樓,丈夫做工程,由80年代尾一家四口租住不足100平方呎的分租房,捱到買下500多平方呎小單位;再由細屋搬大屋,林說能擁有兩層樓是慳出來的成果

林太當初沒賣細屋,一心留給兒子結婚用。70後兒子早婚,5年前結婚時,細屋已斷供,市值200多萬元,林太辦轉名手續時連律師費也包辦,但未幾兒子便嫌細樓「不夠型格」,要賣樓當首期,轉買價值400多萬元的單位。

嫌棄單位細 賣掉換大屋

事實上,林太的兒子和媳婦都是專業人士,兩夫婦當年月入近4萬元,現時更已翻一倍。

問林太不幫兒子買樓又如何?林太說,就是上一代捱得辛苦,既然有能力,就想幫子女早置安樂窩,因為住是人生最重要的事,而且要等子女儲夠錢買樓,樓價可能已愈升愈高,怕追不上。林太說兒子和媳婦近年較學懂感恩,可能因眼見同事為樓而煩,他們相對輕鬆,終知父母好。

林太還有一個80後女兒,也是專業人士,月入近3萬元,近日正物色小單位,她已準備好數十萬元首期要幫女兒一把,以公平對待子女。

美聯物業    營業董事郭玉滿指,粗略估計,現時近一半年輕置業人士,都是父母付首期,「父母會提到是他們付首期,讓子女供樓儲下錢,所以不要買太貴。」有父母出手的交易,較常見是買400多萬元的單位,以鐵路沿線大型屋苑為主,貪其保值,年輕人又愛有會所,她說父母通常都為子女付一半首期。

樓價超越97 入息反落後

據差餉    物業估價署資料,今年3月樓價指數已比97年超越14.6%,反觀統計處數字,15至24歲及25至34歲青年人,入息中位數仍比97年落後。

有職業媽媽以「窮媽媽富媽媽」為名在網上交流心得,她接受訪問時指現在世界艱難,為讓孩子吃少點苦,也就盡能力幫一把。她的目標是賺夠錢可以退休去,但為了子女,應不能太早退休了。

Cordless Phones Are 100 Times More Deadly Than Mobiles, Scientists Say
Having a cordless phone in your house can be 100 times more of a health risk than using a mobile, report a group of Swedish Scientists.

Mobile phones today operate at about 900 megahertz, whereas some cordless DECT phones operate at a whopping 6.0 gigahertz!

Emissions from a cordless phone's charger can be as high as six volts per metre – twice as strong as those found with a 100 metres of mobile masts. Two metres away from the charger the radiation is still as high as 2.5 volts per metre – that's 50 times what scientists regard as a safe level!

The most common cancers caused by such radiation are leukaemias. But breast cancer, brain tumors, insomnia, headaches and erratic behavior in kids have also been linked. Those with chargers close to their beds are subjected to radiation while they sleep.
