Admiralty is situated in a top location at the center of Hong Kong with views across the harbour. This former military base became an enclave of high-end hotels and malls and is characterized by one of the richest colonial histories in Hong Kong. Nowadays, Admiralty is the financial and political heart of the city, and welcomes the wealthiest population of the island. It has a lot to offer in terms of dynamism, attractiveness and quality of life.
Hong Kong always attracts more foreign investors, and it has a considerable consequence on the real-estate prices, which have skyrocketed in the past few years. In 2014, prices increased by 12% and reached new heights: some luxury properties have been sold 185,000 euros per square meter, despite the legal measures taken by the Government to calm down the housing market. This phenomenon can be explained by the fact that the number of building plot did not rise these past years, which led to a frenetic increase of the existing properties. According to experts, Hong Kong is considered as the most expensive city in the world and this tendency is not ready to change as Hong Kong appeals to Chinese elite and very wealthy foreign businessmen every year.
