Investors from Singapore have emerged as the largest non-local buyers of commercial properties in Hong Kong during the second quarter. They acquired 62% of non-local investments, totaling HK$3.37 billion (US$696.23 million), surpassing mainland Chinese investors. This shift is attributed to significant price corrections in Hong Kong's office market, with some assets seeing up to a 50% decline, presenting attractive acquisition opportunities for Singaporean buyers seeking long-term recovery plays.
