Knight Frank opens private office in Hong Kong
The opening of Knight Frank’s special workplace in Hong Kong transpires a year just after it set up an exclusive office in Singapore last February. “With Singapore and Hong Kong being main to funding circulations in the Asian territory, it makes good sense to open a Private Office in Hong Kong too,” claims Nicholas Keong, head of exclusive workplace at Knight Frank Singapore.
In an April 14 news release, Knight Frank states Tung’s appointment will even more expand its exclusive client base, especially among ultra-high-net-worth people (UHNWIs), family offices and their advisors in Hong Kong and mainland China.

Hong Kong, Singapore, along with Sydney place in the top 10 cities for ultra-prime property purchases in 2022. 3 hundred forty-five super-prime purchases (sales negotiated for at the very least US$ 10 million or $13 million) and 53 ultra-prime sales (negotiated for at least US$ 25 million) were filed in all these cities. In addition, residential properties stay the more suitable property financial investments for UHNWIs in the Asia-Pacific zone, especially in Greater China, where 32% of the complete riches of HNWIs was alloted to their main and backup houses.
According to Knight Frank’s most recent edition of The Wealth Record, 45% of Asia-Pacific HNWIs are anticipated to experience a rise in wealth in 2023 compared to 25% in 2022. In Asia-Pacific, 16% of The Knight Frank Perspectives Study respondents said their customers prepare to purchase a home in 2023.
Knight Frank has already set up a nonpublic office in Hong Kong, the 2nd in Asia. Tung Ho-Pin has been assigned to head the new workplace, guiding exclusive customers on their international realty profiles.
