## Featured rationale

Office-led investment growth signals recovering capital confidence, while improving leasing momentum and paused retail price corrections could support broader market activity despite limited logistics deals.

Its growth rate dwarfed the APAC average of 38% YoY.

Hong Kong recorded $24.32b (USD3.1b) in real estate investment volumes in the second quarter (Q2) of 2026, up 129% year-on-year (YoY) — the sharpest growth rate of any major Asia Pacific market.

According to a JLL report, Hong Kong's Q2 growth rate dwarfed the APAC average of 38% YoY.

Only Singapore (108%) and Australia (82%) came close amongst major markets; South Korea (-5%) and China (-6%) both contracted.

The office sector was the main engine, powered by receivership sales of 299 Queen's Road Central and One Bedford Place. JLL noted that positive leasing momentum is expected to help revitalise the broader office market going forward.

Moreover, retail price corrections have largely paused, keeping deal volumes stable.

On the logistics side, activity remained limited, a contrast to markets like Australia and Singapore where industrial and logistics assets drew heavier capital.

### 香港在第二季度领跑亚太房地产投资

香港第二季度房地产投资同比飙升 129%

其增长率远高于亚太地区 38% 的同比平均水平。

香港在 2026 年第二季度（Q2）录得新币 243.2 亿（USD3.1b）的房地产投资额，同比增长（YoY）129%，是亚太主要市场中增长最快的地区。

根据 JLL 的报告，香港第二季度增长率远高于亚太地区 38% 的同比平均水平。

主要市场中，只有新加坡（108%）和澳大利亚（82%）接近这一水平；韩国（-5%）和中国（-6%）均出现收缩。

办公楼板块是主要引擎，受到 299 Queen's Road Central 和 One Bedford Place 接管人出售交易推动。JLL 指出，积极的租赁势头预计将有助于未来重振更广泛的办公楼市场。

此外，零售价格调整大体已经暂停，使交易量保持稳定。

物流方面，活动仍然有限，与澳大利亚和新加坡等工业和物流资产吸引更多资本的市场形成对比。
