Ms Irene Lee, Senior Manager, Leasing Department of Sino Group reveals, "The 'Sino Suites' brand caters to a great number of local and overseas tenants, and builds on the Group's leasing experience.  We are delighted to report a high level of occupancy.  For instance, the average occupancy rate of The Staunton in Central was over 95% in 2018, and most of the tenants work on Hong Kong Island.  We strive to provide a range of distinctive choices in carefully selected locations through 'Sino Suites'.  Our two latest projects, namely The Hillside and The Gage, are attracting expatriates and locals, and all the 22 units at The Hillside have been confirmed in two months, while four out of five units at The Gage have been leased.

"The overall occupancy rate of 'Sino Suites' apartments is approximately 90%, and among them, almost 80% of leasing contracts were rented out at over $90 per square foot (saleable area).  We have received a good number of enquiries and requests to visit the show flat.   We are confident that the remaining units will be rented out soon," adds Ms Lee.

"In 2018, the Hong Kong leasing market has seen an increase in rents of 8-10% in general.  The supply of leasing properties is limited compared to the growing demand from locals and overseas tenants.  We are optimistic about further growth in the leasing market.  In 2019, with the launch of the mega infrastructure projects like Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link and robust market demand, we believe there is room for growth.  Sino Suites will continue to provide exquisite apartments to cater to the needs of residents," concludes Ms Leung.
