He pointed out that in the first two months of this year, some housing estates in Hong Kong have seen price increases of 10% to 15%. He believes that by mid-year, the property market's increase will reach 15%, with an annual increase close to 20%. Regarding the financial budget not introducing many measures for the property market, but instead raising the stamp duty on luxury homes priced over HKD 100 million, Shi Yongqing believes this measure will have a suppressive effect on the property market. He is confident that the market is already quite stable and does not require too many support policies. Additionally, he believes that the current government's fiscal revenue and Hong Kong's economy still rely on real estate, so he expects the real estate industry to remain positive in the coming years. As for land prices, he believes that the increase in land prices will be greater than that of housing prices, estimating that the government can sell all the residential land it has released, and the transaction prices will exceed market expectations ### Related Stocks - [512200.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/512200.CN.md) - [03447.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03447.HK.md) - [03187.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03187.HK.md) - [09982.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09982.HK.md) - [09187.HK](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09187.HK.md) - [159768.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/159768.CN.md) - [515060.CN](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/515060.CN.md) ## Related News & Research - [Yuzhou Group Posts RMB457 Million in April Contracted Sales, RMB1.8 Billion Year-to-Date](https://longbridge.com/en/news/285930683.md) - [China Vanke Tightens Loan Terms and Secures RMB2.5 Billion Framework with Shenzhen Metro](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286113072.md) - [US SAYS XI EXPRESSED INTEREST IN PURCHASING MORE AMERICAN OIL](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286385681.md) - [REALTYon 2026 Opens with Strong Attendance and High Industry Engagement](https://longbridge.com/en/news/285676065.md) - [China Jinmao renews shareholder loan framework with Ping An and China Overseas partner](https://longbridge.com/en/news/286131555.md)
