be fair, the housing price increased 30-50% in a year, how many people get salaries increased by that much.  that is why people want to get in the market asap.  
you may lucky that you don't need to pay back student loan or support family member, otherwise it is hard to save for downpayment. I still remember you said your bro is a professional with his own corp.  so you can't compare him to the general 80's la.

"""目前本港的房屋供應大約有240萬個，而家庭數目則有230萬個，基本上是供求平衡，"""
he probably forgot the buyers from mainland.  and most new apartments are "luxury" apartments, which are only target to the rich people.  so how many units are actually available to the average families.
if he cannot figure out why people keep complain about the price, he should go back to take econ 101 la.

what i mean is they are supporting their family, not only pay 家用( you live at home, you pay 家用 is pretty normal).  read few posts at hk forum, people need to pay 1/3 to 1/2 salary to family, which is a lot la.  
if in general, everyone is a professional, we don't need to designated a group of people as "professional" la.  
you family income should be around $80000/month.  which is quite good wor.

天 匯, The 6,158 square foot apartment was sold to an unidentified buyer from mainland China.At a price tag of almost $9,200 per square foot, it may be Asia’s most expensive property!
yep, tell the 天 匯 buyers, you guys don't own a luxury unit yet.
so as your standard, the most expensive apartment in Asia is not a luxury unit.  
but the one in yuen long is a luxury home lor.
元朗YOHO MIDTOWN，提供8個頂層大戶，每戶意向售價逾2,000萬元，呎價逾1.25萬元，

"one measure", who set the standard?
even the one in yuen long and fan lan are package at luxury apartment.

a fresh grad after 97 earned ~$12000, if you paid half to your family and ~$3K to loan payment and you could still save money for the down payment and wedding + ..., you should show the 80+ how to do it la.  unless you earn much more than average la

of course you must make more than that la, otherwise your mortgage payment is not only 10% of your household income la.
