## Featured rationale

Strong non-local participation and interest in education and living assets may support second-half activity despite rate, wealth-effect and Chinese capital-flow headwinds.

## AI summary

Hong Kong investment property volume reached approximately HKD14 billion in Q2 2026, declining 5.5% from Q1, while inbound capital hit a three-year high.

## Original article

Investments totalled HKD14 billion during the quarter.

Hong Kong's investment property market remained resilient during the second quarter of 2026, with transaction volumes holding up despite economic and policy headwinds, according to Colliers.

The consultancy reported investment volume reached approximately HKD14 billion during the quarter, down 5.5% from Q1, as the market navigated potential interest rate increases, weaker wealth effects and the prospect of tighter controls on Chinese capital flows.

Colliers said office assets continued to account for the largest share of investment activity, while a major en-bloc residential transaction also boosted overall deal volume. Non-local investors remained active, with inbound capital reaching a three-year high, led by Singaporean investors who accounted for more than 60% of international capital inflows.

The consultancy identified education-related assets as an emerging investment theme, citing secure occupancy profiles and favourable long-term demand fundamentals.

Thomas Chak, Head of Capital Markets & Investment Services at Colliers Hong Kong, said opportunities in mortgagee sales, distressed assets and repriced properties continue to attract value-focused investors. Colliers expects education and living sector assets to drive investment activity during the second half of 2026 and has maintained its full-year investment transaction forecast of approximately HKD42 billion.

### 香港物业投资额第二季度下降5.5%

2026年第二季度，香港投资物业市场保持韧性，尽管面临经济与政策压力，成交量仍稳住阵脚

当季投资总额达140亿港元。

据高力国际（Colliers）称，2026年第二季度香港投资物业市场保持韧性，尽管面临经济与政策逆风，成交量仍稳住阵脚。

该咨询机构报告称，当季投资额约达140亿港元，较第一季度下降5.5%，市场正应对潜在加息、财富效应减弱以及对中国资本流动加强管控的前景。

高力国际表示，写字楼资产仍占投资活动的最大份额，同时一宗大型住宅集体出售（en bloc）交易也推高了整体成交量。非本地投资者保持活跃，入境资本创下三年新高，其中新加坡投资者占比超过国际资本流入的60%。

该咨询机构将教育相关资产列为新兴投资主题，理由是租用稳定、长期需求基本面有利。

高力国际香港资本市场及投资服务主管Thomas Chak表示，按揭人出售、困境资产与重新定价物业中的机会，持续吸引注重价值的投资者。高力国际预计，教育与居住类资产将在2026年下半年推动投资活动，并维持全年投资成交额约420亿港元的预测。
