Open statutory orders

  • Mandatory building inspection notice

    MBIS

    A statutory notice requiring owners to appoint a Registered Inspector to inspect the building and carry out prescribed repair. Owners pay, apportioned by share — this is where a major-repair bill comes from.

  • Mandatory window inspection notice

    MWIS

    A statutory notice requiring the building's windows to be inspected. Smaller than MBIS, but it still has a deadline and the owners still pay.

Legal thresholds already crossed

  • 53 years old — inside the mandatory inspection scheme

    Private buildings enter the Mandatory Building Inspection Scheme at 30 years and can be selected at any time. Banks also shorten mortgage tenor on older buildings, which changes what a buyer can borrow.

  • 53 years old — inside the compulsory sale regime

    Since 6 December 2024 the threshold for buildings aged 50–59 is 70% ownership in the designated areas, or 80% outside them. The threshold drops further as the building ages.

Is it just this building, or the whole street?

Within 300 m there are 247 buildings on record, and 39 of them also carry an outstanding statutory order, average age 48 years.

This is a neighbourhood pattern, not an isolated case. Worth asking what neighbouring buildings are paying for repairs.

Across Kwai Tsing district, 235 of 763 buildings on record carry an open order.

So what do I actually do?

Everything above is fact. Below is judgement — what to ask before you sign given this exact combination, how the bill gets apportioned to you, and the full result of all 6 checks we ran, including the ones that came back clean.

  • The specific questions to put to the seller and the owners' corporation before you sign
  • How a major-repair levy is apportioned by share, and what level is normal right now
  • All 6 checks in full — including the ones with nothing to report
  • A report you can send to your partner, your solicitor or your bank

Payments are still in review. Leave your email — you will be first in when it opens, at the price shown above.

What this page cannot tell you

  • Records are per BUILDING, not per flat — an order does not mean the specific unit you are viewing has a problem.
  • The unauthorised-works data covers removal orders served from 1 May 2023 onward only. No record ≠ no unauthorised works.
  • Building age covers structures with a known occupation record, not every building in Hong Kong.
  • This page is generated automatically from open data. It is not a building survey, and it is not legal or investment advice.
