Housing tops the list of burning issues in Hong Kong despite the introduction of several cooling measures in the past months. Recently, the Government has kicked off a public consultation hoping to find a solution for adequate and affordable housing. If you would like to contribute your part to this discussion, you are recommended to have an understanding of the local housing market first.
