Hong Kong's Sun Hung Kai Properties (SHKP) has sold all 128 flats at its Sierra Sea project in the New Territories. This comes as the developer offered discounted prices in anticipation of a possible US Federal Reserve interest-rate increase by year-end. The sale of these flats could indicate a cautious approach by SHKP to the potential economic impact of higher US interest rates, which may affect Hong Kong's economy and property market.
