What's going on? Hong Kong housing prices are up 45% since the start of 2009, thanks to low mortgage rates fueled by the Hong Kong dollar's peg to the U.S. dollar and ultra-low interest rates in the U.S.. Price rises are now spreading beyond the most esteemed locations, making affordability for the average Hong Konger a major concern.
