Hong Kong developers are cautiously testing the housing market's recovery by increasing prices and reducing discounts on new projects. This follows improved market sentiment and a rise in property transactions. New World Development is reducing discounts at its Deep Water Pavilia project, effectively raising prices by 2.5%. Sino Land has directly increased prices on units at the Grand Mayfair project by up to 7.1%. While some developers are raising headline prices, others are scaling back incentives. Analysts note that many new projects still offer significant concessions as developers prioritize selling existing inventory from the recent market downturn.
