As of Monday, 1,702 households at the Wang Fuk Court estate have signed formal sale and purchase agreements with the Hong Kong government. This represents 85.8% of the total flat owners across blocks A through H. The buyout follows a significant fire incident at the estate, which prompted the government to launch a special rehousing initiative for affected residents.

Following the signing of these agreements, the government proceeded on Tuesday with a computerized draw to establish the priority sequence for the flat selection process. This system is designed to determine the order in which eligible households can choose their new units within the government's subsidized housing program. While the process is moving forward, the transition involves the relocation of a large number of residents from the fire-affected site to new government-provided housing.

This development marks a major milestone in the government's effort to resolve the housing situation for Wang Fuk Court residents. The authorities have emphasized that the selection process is being conducted in a structured manner to ensure fairness among the participating households. The remaining owners who have not yet signed agreements are expected to be the subject of ongoing discussions as the rehousing project continues to progress.
