在香港商业物业低迷之际，英国跨国企业怡和集团在持有超过50年后，将铜锣湾的一家街铺以8000万港元（1020万美元）的价格出售，较其早前估值低1000万港元。
Amid Hong Kong’s commercial property downturn, British conglomerate Jardine Matheson has sold a street shop in Causeway Bay for HK$80 million (US$10.2 million) after holding it for more than 50 years, accepting a price HK$10 million below its earlier valuation.
根据土地注册处记录，该物业位于怡和大厦（H&S Building）礼顿路36号的地下铺面，建筑面积约11727平方英尺，已被Uni Investment Development收购。
The property, a ground-floor shop in H&S Building at 36 Leighton Road, with a gross floor area of about 11,727 square feet, was acquired by Uni Investment Development, according to Land Registry records.
怡和集团于今年4月初委托代理人推售该物业，当时估值为9000万港元。最终成交价相当于每平方英尺6822港元，较估值低约11%。
Jardine Matheson appointed an agent to market the property in early April, when it was valued at HK$90 million. The eventual sale price – equivalent to HK$6,822 per square foot – was about 11 per cent lower.
根据土地注册处记录，Uni Investment Development的董事们于6月以1.1亿港元从麦当劳处收购了鲗鱼湾英皇道Parkvale的一家高层铺面。
Uni Investment Development’s directors acquired a high-floor shop at Parkvale on King’s Road in Quarry Bay from McDonald’s for HK$110 million in June, according to Land Registry records.
桥梁优质铺面基金管理公司（Bridgeway Prime Shop Fund Management）创始人兼首席执行官李先生表示，尽管该铺位于铜锣湾次要街道，但因其建筑面积较大且曾用作汽车展厅，此次交易仍属划算。
Edwin Lee, founder and CEO of Bridgeway Prime Shop Fund Management, said the deal represented a bargain, citing the shop’s large floor area and its former use as a car showroom, despite its location on a secondary street in Causeway Bay.
李先生估计，该铺的月租金可达35万港元，按成交价计算，租金回报率约为5%。
Lee estimated that the shop’s rent could reach HK$350,000 a month, representing a yield of about 5 per cent based on the transaction price.
中原商业地产董事总经理潘志明表示，加息的阴影继续笼罩香港商业物业市场，促使部分业主调整挂牌价以加速处置。
Stanley Poon Chi-ming, managing director at Centaline Commercial, said the shadow of interest rate increases continued to loom over Hong Kong’s commercial property market, prompting some owners to adjust their asking prices to accelerate disposals.
他补充称，第三季街铺成交录得222宗，按年增长23%，总价值约为43.6亿港元。
“Shop transactions in the third quarter recorded a 23 per cent year-on-year increase to 222 deals, with a total value of about HK$4.36 billion,” he added.
潘志明预计，街铺市场的势头将延续至第四季，成交量预计将升至240宗，总价值达55亿港元。
Poon expected the momentum in the street-shop market to continue into the fourth quarter, with transaction volume projected to rise to 240 deals and total value to reach HK$5.5 billion.
然而，由于仍有部分困境物业进入市场，他表示预计第四季街铺价格将下跌不超过5%。
However, with some distressed properties still coming onto the market, he said he expected street-shop prices to decline by no more than 5 per cent in the fourth quarter.
根据销售资料，H&S大厦铺位拥有25米宽的招牌面，此前曾作为多个知名欧洲和美国汽车品牌的展厅。
According to sales materials, the H&S Building shop featured a 25-metre-wide signboard frontage, and had previously served as a showroom for several well-known European and American car brands.
据当地媒体报道，该建筑的裙楼部分，包括一楼铺位和六层停车场，最初由奔驰经销商众福公司所有。
The podium portion of the building, including the ground-floor shop and a six-storey car park, was originally owned by Zung Fu Co, a Mercedes-Benz dealership, according to local media reports.
2021年，中国大陆汽车经销商中升集团控股从怡和集团收购了众福（中国）的全部股权，但不包括众福持有的物业。
In 2021, mainland Chinese car dealer Zhongsheng Group Holdings acquired all the equity in Zung Fu (China) from Jardine Matheson, excluding the properties held by Zung Fu.
H&S大厦裙楼随后于2021年10月以5.74亿港元转让予怡和集团旗下的信德地产投资。
The H&S Building podium was subsequently transferred to Credence Properties Investment, an affiliate of Jardine Matheson, for HK$574 million in October 2021.
另据报道，该建筑的六层停车场于3月以1.3亿港元售出，涉及199个车位，平均每个车位约65.3万港元。
Separately, the building’s six-storey car park was sold for HK$130 million in March, involving 199 parking spaces at an average price of about HK$653,000 each.
