行政總裁匯報
Report of the Chief Executive Officer
I am delighted to present my second annual report of
the Estate Agents Authority (“EAA”) as the Chief
Executive Officer. The EAA, as always, has been
dedicated to regulating the estate agency trade,
promoting the trade’s professionalism and enhancing
consumer education; and the year 2014/15 was no
exception.
A Buoyant Property Market
The property market in Hong Kong in 2014/15 has been
slowly recovering from the significant drop in the
previous year. While another series of supervisory
measures on property mortgage loans made by The
Hong Kong Monetary Authority and The Hong Kong
Mortgage Corporation Limited have been in place since
February 2015, the total number of property
transactions in 2014/15, amounting to 90,082, is still
51% higher than the figure in 2013/14, and the total
consideration has also risen by 58% to $617 billion. Yet
both figures are nevertheless lower than those of
2012/13.
That said, the number of licences has slightly increased
by 1.2% over that of the previous year. The total number
of individual licensees reached 35,859 as at the end of
March 2015, and the overall number of candidates
participating in the qualifying examinations has also
slightly increased 0.75% to 9,342.
Regardless of how buoyant the market is, the EAA
strives to continue its efforts in regulating estate
agents and enhancing the professional standard of the
trade.
