The first set of family income limit for the range of materials range from 57000 to 74000

Earlier, the HA increased the income ceiling of applicants for white-form applicants at HOS flats to a maximum of $ 57,000. As a result, the eligibility of Hong Kong residents for the first time onto the carriages has also been changed. Wong Yu-fai, chairman of the Housing Authority’s Housing Subsidy Group, said yesterday that as the locus of the first car on the Hong Kong people was between HOS flats and private houses, after the adjustment of the income ceiling for HOS White Form applicants, The launch car introduced this year is eligible for family income may be set at between $ 57,000 to $ 74,000.

The Chief Executive, Mrs Carrie Lam, recently made a “notice” that the upper limit on the income of Hong Kong residents applying for a pick-up plate will be correspondingly raised in response to the increase in the H-Share capital and income ceiling of the HOS applicants. Compared with the two-member family proposed in the “Policy Address” The monthly income of 68,000 yuan is high.

Huang Yuanhui: Pricing is higher than HOS

According to the Policy Address, Wong Yu-fai, chairman of the Housing Authority’s Housing Subsidy Group, said that the positioning of the first boarding car on Hong Kong Island between the HOS flats and private housing as a staircase to housing and the applicants’ If the new housing project is launched this year, the family income limit will be set at about $ 57,000 to $ 74,100. He also estimates that the price of the first plate will be higher than that of HOS flats. However, the actual pricing will take into account the affordability of applicants, and the differences in the prices of buildings will have an impact on pricing.

For the new batch of HOS flats to be launched by the HA next month, some estates have an average price of nearly $ 10,000 per square foot, a record high. Huang Yuanhui said he can not see the need to adjust the HOS pricing mechanism at present. HOS flats will continue to use market prices this time If the family income limit of $ 57,000 is calculated, 90% of the units are affordable by applicants and they think that society can not rely solely on feelings and think that the high property prices will require adjustment mechanisms.

As far as the Housing Authority has decided to normalize “Green House”, Mr Wong said if the scale of individual projects is too large, the waiting time may be affected. Therefore, converting 4,800 public housing units in Fo Tan to Habitat has reservations. The proposal should be gradual but not in conflict with the Chief Executive’s objective of providing more units.
