Ms. Leung Suk Yee, General Manager of Sales and Marketing at Eagle Properties, described the pricing as a "heart-stirring price," in line with market expectations and positively influenced by the increased market activity following the relaxation of cooling measures. Compared to other new developments near MTR stations, the pricing of Langham Place is more attractive, and the developer is confident in the sales of this launch.

The first batch of 115 residential units includes different layouts ranging from 1 to 3 bedrooms, with sizes ranging from 388 to 774 square feet.

Mr. Thomas Chan, Vice Chairman and President of the Residential Division of Centaline Asia-Pacific, revealed that the discounted average price per square foot of Langham Place is comparable to that of eight years ago, with prices offering over 20% discount compared to surrounding new developments. He expects the first batch of units to sell out quickly, with potential for price increases in the future.

Mr. Buggle Lau, Chief Executive of Midland Realty's Residential Division, also pointed out that residential developments above MTR stations are usually very popular. With its advantageous location and pricing, Langham Place is expected to attract a large number of end-users and investors. He estimates that the ratio of end-users to investors for this project is approximately 60:40, with potential rents reaching HK$70 per square foot and rental yields reaching 4%.

In addition, the project was awarded development rights to Goldin Financial in 2016, with a land premium of approximately HK$6.282 billion and a floor price of approximately HK$8,459 per square foot. In early 2021, Goldin Financial transferred the project rights to Eagle Properties while retaining a fixed dividend ratio of 35%.

The launch of Langham Place Phase IIB undoubtedly injected vitality into the market, attracting widespread attention and anticipation. As the Hong Kong property market gradually enters a recovery phase, the success of this project may drive activity throughout the region's property market, providing homebuyers and investors with more choices and opportunities.
