The return of bankers' bonuses has given real estate agents renewed hope for the housing market in 2010. Globally, prices for both commercial and residential real estate bottomed out in the third quarter of 2009 and since then both have recovered. But it is commercial property that is the star performer. In the UK, London retail property prices have jumped almost one-third in that period, more than three times the increase in house prices. In Hong Kong, commercial prices have grown about one-tenth compared with minimal house price growth, according to Grosvenor, the property group.
銀行家獎金“回潮”，重新點燃了房地產中介對于2010樓市的希望。從全球來看，商業與住宅地產價格于2009年第三季度見底，此后雙雙出現回升。但商業地產的表現較為搶眼。房地產集團髙富諾(Grosvenor)表示，在英國，倫敦零售地產價格在此期間上漲近三分之一，是住宅價格漲幅的3倍以上。在香港，商業地產價格上漲了10%左右，而住宅價格則漲幅甚微。
