Today, the University of Hong Kong released their Hong Kong Residential Real Estate Series (HKU-REIS) indicating that, in February, the price of residential properties increased a notable 2.05% since January and climbed 5.96% above the level seen in February 2011.
It appears that after a notable pullback in late-2011 prices are beginning to show some improvement with all measures rising on the month.
The HKU-REIS is a set of property price indices constructed monthly using a “modified” repeat-sale methodology similar to that of the S&P/Case-Shiller indices yet suited to the Hong Kong property market.
