New World Development Hong Kong housing expansion

Entities: Qian Yu development · Yuen Long · Hong Kong Sales Monitoring Bureau

Overview

New World Development secured planning permission in early July 2026 for three large residential projects in Hong Kong’s northern new towns, adding almost 7,000 units across Fanling, Yuen Long South and a shared‑land scheme in Yongning Village. The developer moved quickly to marketing, releasing price lists for the Yuen Long "Qian Yu" development. The first‑round sale in mid‑April attracted over 5,000 registrations, oversubscribing the 138 price‑list units by roughly 35 times; a second round in late May added 118 units and ten tendered units, generating about HK$7.4 billion in revenue.

By the end of July, the Qian Yu project accelerated its sales pace, selling 297 units within two weeks, including a single day with 38 transactions that produced more than HK$2.1 billion in cash. Large buyers spent HK$16.53 million on three two‑bedroom units and HK$10.59 million on two units, pushing total sales toward HK$16 billion for the 566‑unit development. Concurrently, Hong Kong’s Sales Monitoring Bureau recorded a record 53 prosecutions and 41 complaints related to new‑launch sales, underscoring heightened regulatory scrutiny amid the market’s rapid activity.
