Meridian: Over four and a half of the respondents plan to purchase property next year. The confidence of Hong Kong citizens in buying property has significantly increased compared to last year.

According to the Wisdom Finance APP, a recent mortgage referral report found that out of 540 online respondents, about three-quarters were existing homeowners, while the rest were people who had not yet purchased property. Among the overall respondents, more than 40% believe that the trend of Hong Kong property prices will remain relatively stable in 2026, with fluctuations of about 5%, and over 20% think that prices will rise by 5-10%. Additionally, more than 70% indicated that the Hong Kong government's recent relaxation of stamp duty rates at the beginning of the year has had a positive effect on the property market.
