Real Estate Struggles: Wealthy families in Hong Kong are selling luxury properties at significant losses due to financial pressures from high interest rates and a declining real estate market, with 75% of high-end transactions involving financially stressed sellers.
Impact on Market Dynamics: The trend of distressed sales is expected to continue as more property owners face difficulties, potentially leading to increased defaults and further declines in property values, as buyers seek deep discounts in a challenging economic environment.
