******************************************************************************************
The following is issued on behalf of the Hong Kong Housing Authority:

     Ballots were drawn today (April 6) for the Hong Kong Housing Authority (HA)'s Sale of Green Form Subsidised Home Ownership Scheme (GSH) Flats 2019 (GSH 2019). The Chairman of the HA Subsidised Housing Committee, Mr Stanley Wong, officiated at the ballot drawing. Due to the current situation of the pandemic, the HA arranged a live broadcast of the entire process through its Facebook page for public viewing. Public and media were not arranged to attend on-site.

     Two new developments, Dip Tsui Court in Chai Wan and Ching Fu Court in Tsing Yi, providing a total of 3 696 flats, are put up for sale under GSH 2019. Dip Tsui Court will provide 828 flats with saleable areas of about 17.4 square metres to about 29.7 sq m (about 187 square feet to about 320 sq ft). Ching Fu Court will provide 2 868 flats with saleable areas of about 17.4 sq m to 43.8 sq m (about 187 sq ft to about 471 sq ft). In addition, a total of 14 rescinded flats, arising from cancellation of the Agreements for Sale and Purchase from Lai Tsui Court in Cheung Sha Wan under GSH 2018, will also be put up for resale under GSH 2019. The saleable areas of the rescinded flats range from about 17.1 sq m to about 42.0 sq m (about 184 sq ft to about 452 sq ft).
          
     By applying a discount of 51 per cent to the assessed market values, the selling prices of the two new GSH developments range from about $820,000 to about $2,730,000. The average selling prices for Dip Tsui Court and Ching Fu Court are $65,660 per sq m (i.e. $6,100 per sq ft) and $58,800 per sq m (i.e. $5,460 per sq ft) respectively on saleable area basis. By applying the same discount of 51 per cent to the assessed market values, the selling prices of rescinded flats in Lai Tsui Court range from about $1,340,000 to about $3,410,000.

     A total of around 48 000 applications were received by the HA for GSH 2019, comprising around 44 000 carry-over Green Form applications from Sale of Home Ownership Scheme (HOS) Flats 2019 and around 4 000 new applications. Amongst them, around 38 000 were from family applicants (in which around 20 000 applied to join the Priority Scheme for Families with Elderly Members) and around 10 000 were from one-person applicants.
 
     The ballot conducted today is to determine the applicants' priority sequence based on the last two digits of their application numbers. For applicants holding the same drawn digits within individual application categories, their order of priority will be randomly generated by computer.

     The ballot results have been uploaded to the dedicated webpage on the HA/Housing Department website (www.housingauthority.gov.hk/gsh/2019). The randomly generated order of all applications will be uploaded to the webpage tomorrow (April 7). It will also be displayed from tomorrow at the GSH Sales Unit, the Customer Service Centre in Lok Fu, the estate offices and District Tenancy Management Offices of the HA, the estate offices of the Hong Kong Housing Society and the Home Affairs Enquiry Centres of the Home Affairs Department. Applicants may also call the HA sales hotline 2712 8000 for enquiries.
 
     The HA will invite applicants holding a valid Green Form Certificate to submit the supporting documents of their income and assets within a specified period for detailed vetting according to this randomly generated order to ascertain whether individual applicants meet the eligibility criteria for GSH 2019 and the final priority for flat selection of eligible applicants. The HA will send notifications in batches to invite eligible applicants according to their priority under the application category to select flats at the office of the GSH Sales Unit in Kwun Tong (GSH Sales Unit) tentatively from mid-2020 onwards.

     If applicants under the carry-over arrangement from HOS 2019 to GSH 2019 have successfully purchased a flat under HOS 2019, their applications for GSH 2019 will be cancelled immediately, and vice versa.

     The sales brochures covering full details and the price lists for the developments under GSH 2019 will be made available for public collection at the GSH Sales Unit seven days before the commencement of the flat selection. Soft copies of these documents will also be uploaded to the designated websites for the developments. Building models and doll houses of the two new developments will be displayed and panels/associated documents/drawings of all the developments under GSH 2019 will be exhibited at the GSH Sales Unit for viewing by the public seven days before commencement up to the end of the flat selection period.
