Flat Selection - Points to Note

Please note:

  1. All eligible White Form applying "Priority Scheme for Families with Elderly Members" and “Families with Newborns Flat Selection Priority Scheme” family applicants had been invited for flat selection. Since the allocated quota to White Form "Priority Scheme for Families with Elderly Members" and “Families with Newborns Flat Selection Priority Scheme” family applicants have not been fully utilised, according to paragraph 12.2 of the Application Guide, the remaining quota will be allocated to Green Form applicants of the same application category. The HOS Sales Unit will invite the eligible Green Form "Priority Scheme for Families with Elderly Members" and “Families with Newborns Flat Selection Priority Scheme” family applicants for flat selection according to the order of priority. (Updated on: 11.6.2025)

Since Flat Selection Notification has been sent out before the flat selection date, the Hong Kong Housing Authority (HA) and the Housing Department (HD) do not guarantee that flats will be available for selection by the time the applicant shows up at the appointed time. If the allocated quotas / flats for the applicant’s application category have been exhausted, the flat selection appointment arranged for the applicant will be cancelled, please pay attention to the latest sales position.

At the time of flat selection, the applicant and the family members listed in the application form must meet all the eligibility criteria of the application under the sale exercise from submission of the application form up to the date of signing the Agreement for Sale and Purchase (ASP) of a HOS flat/recovered Tenants Purchase Scheme (TPS) flat of the HA and make relevant declarations again.

For any changes in the family circumstances (including but not limited to the family size, marital status, employment status, income, assets and domestic property ownership), or the total monthly income/ net asset value of the family has exceeded the prescribed limits, or private property ownership has been acquired (if applicable) of the Applicant and/or any family members listed in the application form, they should inform the HA such changes at the Home Ownership Scheme (HOS) Sales Unit (the Sales Office) for reassessment of the eligibility of application and priority for flat selection. Should there be any changes in the personal particulars or family circumstances which render them ineligible, the application will be cancelled.

  • During the flat selection period, applicants may view the updated sales position on the display screens at the lobby of HA Customer Service Centre (Podium Level 1, 3 Wang Tau Hom South Road, Lok Fu, Kowloon). The operation hours of display screens are from 8:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. daily, inclusive of Saturdays, Sundays, and public holidays.
  • As some applicants who have selected flats may give up the selected flats before signing of ASP, the HOS Sales Office will arrange to revert the sales position of the “selected” flats to “unsold” and update on the display screens at the end of each flat selection date for information of applicants. Please browse the sales status files uploaded on each development webpage.
  • The number of HOS flats still available for flat selection will be updated at the HA Sales Hotline - 2712 8000 at 10:00 p.m. daily.

The applicant will not be given another chance for flat selection again under the same application category.
