Abstract: | After two years of declines, Hong Kong's real estate market is booming again. But will speculators ruin it forever? Many who bought a place in King's Park are counting on selling or renting to mainlanders after British-run Hong Kong reverts to Chinese sovereignty July 1. But a strong real estate market is a plus in Hong Kong, where property investment is a traditional way of making money. Those profits help finance businesses and industries, fund the stock market and stoke consumer spending. |
