Hong Kong Housing Society Annual Report 2014
52
As there was an element of subsidy in this scheme, eligibility for
Greenview Villa flats was limited to Hong Kong residents whose income
and assets are within the prescribed limits. Similar to arrangements for
flats under the previous Flat-for-Sale Scheme, the owner will need to
pay a premium to Government first on re-sale or leasing out of the flat.
Alternatively, after a period of two years from the first assignment, the
owner can sell the flat to an eligible purchaser nominated by the Housing
Society without the need to pay any premium.
In spite of the restrictions on eligibility, market response to Greenview
Villa was enthusiastic with over 58,000 applications received for the 988
flats. The flats were sold out in 11 days and are targeted for handing over
to the purchasers in the second quarter of 2015. We shall closely monitor
the progress.
An analysis of the sales details and the profile of the buyers gave us
insight into the potential demand for this type of housing. We have shared
the information with the Transport and Housing Bureau and will work
with Government to explore possibilities for further attempts. The same
information will help us to decide on the best mix of housing units in our
future projects, for example Sha Tin Area 36C, which has been entrusted
to the Housing Society by Government in the 2013 Policy Address.
由於此計劃屬資助性質，合資格購買「綠悠
雅苑」單位的買家，必須為香港居民，並設
入息和資產上限。若買家出租或轉售單位，
就像以往「住宅發售計劃」的安排，必須先
向政府補付地價。如業主在購入單位後兩年
將單位售予由房協提名的合資格買家，則毋
需補付地價。
儘管在資格上設有限制，市場對「綠悠雅苑」
的反應依然熱烈，
988
個單位共收到超過
58,000
個申請。所有單位在十一天內售罄，
預計可在二零一五年第二季交樓。我們將密
切監察進度。
同時，我們對單位銷售情況和買家資料作分
析，研究結果讓我們了解這類房屋的潛在需
求，並將有關分析數據與運輸及房屋局分
享，繼而與政府探討是否可以再作類似的
嘗試。這些資料亦有助我們計劃日後的項目
時，例如政府於二零一三年施政報告中委託
房協發展的沙田
36C
區，訂出最理想的單位
組合。
