In january, the turnover fell to at least 25 years of new lows, with housing prices falling by almost 10 per cent from their peak in september last year, a new low since july 2013. “hong kong's house price is still very high, so it fell a little. It would have been expensive, and young people could not afford it.” a local resident (alias) working at a bank in hong kong told the news。

It lives in won-lang, on the north-west side of the new territories, which belongs to the suburbs of hong kong. Even so, local housing prices exceeded hk$ 100,000 per square metre, which fell slightly in the past when the hong kong building market began to relax。

“a small area next to our home, with a functional area of 433 square feet (approximately 40 square metres), sells hk$ 4. 68 million (approximately hk$ 3. 91 million), or approximately hk$ 117,000 per square metre. It's too expensive after hong kong's house prices started falling. And it's a 12-year-old house." the chapter says. She felt that hong kong's housing prices were now too high and that it would not be cheap to drop by half。
