About Sai Ying Pun
After British army arrival at Possession Point (now Hollywood Park next to Possession Street) in 1841, the 800 or so volunteer soldiers from India and Bangladesh stationed in West Point (hillside of Water Street). Thereafter, the area west of Hollywood Park was called Sai Ying Pun 西營盤, meaning 'Western Garrison'. Flourishing trades required construction of piers, docks, warehouses, and properties to accommodate merchants for rice, dry seafoods, and herbal medicines, and the workers who supported these activities. Even today, one can still find remnants of the early colonial past in the district. World War II brought mass destruction, giving rise to reconstruction of many buildings to four to six storey tenement buildings with shops on ground floor. Rapid population growth and technological advancement necessitate these post war buildings to be redeveloped into highrises.

Testimonials
Belinda Cheung's client say:
My husband and I recently relocated to Hong Kong, and what could have been an overwhelming and stressful experience was made remarkably smooth thanks to the exceptional support of Belinda Cheung. From our very first interaction, Belinda's warmth, friendliness, and professionalism stood out. We built a natural rapport immediately, and it was clear that she was genuinely invested in helping us not just find an apartment, but a place we could truly call home. Belinda took the time to carefully listen to our needs and concerns, and her deep knowledge of the local property market and expat lifestyle was invaluable throughout the process. Her communication was always clear, prompt, and transparent, and we were consistently impressed by how responsive and available she was - even outside standard hours. Despite my husband and I having conflicting schedules that required revisiting a few flats multiple times, Belinda was endlessly accommodating and never made us feel like an inconvenience. Her patience, flexibility, and professionalism were truly appreciated. She went well beyond what we expected - successfully negotiating a brand-new fridge and washing machine with the landlord, which added real value to the apartment. She also assisted with setting up utilities, recommended reliable places to buy furniture and home essentials, and generously shared helpful advice and local knowledge about settling into life in Hong Kong. Her thoughtful insights, from navigating neighbourhoods to adjusting to daily life in the city, helped us feel grounded far sooner than we expected. Belinda's efficiency and attention to detail were equally impressive. She handled every aspect of the leasing process with care and precision, ensuring nothing was overlooked and that we fully understood each step. Her ability to bridge our needs with the expectations of local landlords was seamless, and her proactive approach saved us both time and potential stress. Even after we moved in, Belinda checked in to make sure everything was going smoothly. That level of aftercare speaks volumes about her dedication to her clients and her integrity as a professional. Belinda exemplifies what a truly outstanding estate agent should be: knowledgeable, reliable, empathetic, and thoroughly committed to her clients. She is an asset to her team, and we wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone relocating to or moving within Hong Kong.

Yvonne Lee's client say:
I had such a positive experience with Proway and my real estate agent from Proway. Upon my arrival in Hong Kong, I emailed all four of the agents my school suggested (I'm a teacher), and Yvonne Lee from Proway emailed me back right away. I was so impressed with her professionalism and attentiveness. She sent me her company website, where I was able to browse different apartment options and email her back with my selections. She made a few other apartment recommendations, and then we met the next day. When I met her the next day, she had prepared a spiral notebook with a summary of all the apartments we were going to see that day. She also arranged for the company car to drive me to the different apartments. On another day where the company van wasn't available, when the distance between apartments was further, she sprung for a cab and didn't ask me to pay for it. With Yvonne I felt comfortable, reassured and well taken care of.
